The unsustainable harvest of wildlife is a major threat to global biodiversity and to the
millions of people who depend on wildlife for food and income. Past research has called …

Commercial and recreational harvests create selection pressures for fitness-related
phenotypic traits that are partly under genetic control. Consequently, harvesting can drive …

Evidence is accumulating that many marine ectotherms are undergoing rapid changes in
their life‐history characteristics. These changes have been variously attributed to fisheries …

Estimation of population abundances in the absence of good observational data are
notoriously difficult, yet urgently needed for biodiversity conservation and sustainable use of …

The success of European efforts towards the recovery of the European eel (Anguilla
anguilla) population will rely on accurate assessments of local stock status for the …

There is currently a growing concern that biocultural heritage is threatened in many

A hierarchical Bayesian life cycle model is presented that considers spatial covariation of
marine life history traits of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) populations in the North Atlantic …

Eliciting stakeholders' mental models is an important participatory modeling (PM) tool for
building systems knowledge, a frequent challenge in natural resource management …

Climate change continues to exert pressure on ocean ecosystems. The fisheries‐related
