Regime shifts are abrupt changes between contrasting, persistent states of any complex
system. The potential for their prediction in the ocean and possible management depends …

Current methods and theory used in the study of the spatial dynamics of marine fish are
problematic. Positive relationships between population abundance and occupied area are …

Coetzee, JC, van der Lingen, CD, Hutchings, L., and Fairweather, TP 2008. Has the fishery
contributed to a major shift in the distribution of South African sardine?–ICES Journal of …

We investigated ontogenetic and seasonal changes in the feeding ecology of 2 small
pelagic fish species, the European anchovy Engraulis encrasicolus and the European …

The use of baited remote underwater video to remotely observe fish and generate indices of
relative abundance has steadily gained acceptance as a fisheries management tool …

We investigated the relationships between stock biomass, distribution area and mean
density of sardine and anchovy populations off California, Peru, South Africa and Japan. Our …

The Humboldt Current System (HCS) is dominated by two pelagic species; Peruvian
anchovy or anchoveta (Engraulis ringens) and sardine (Sardinops sagax). Using data from …

Three indexes of spatial aggregation are developed and used to examine the aggregation
pattern of sardine (Sardinops sagax) and anchovy (Engraulis ringens) in the Peruvian …

We examined climatic effects on the geographic distribution and abundance of 34 dominant
oceanic fishes in the southern California region using larval fish data collected from the 50 …

In the upwelling zone of the northeastern Pacific, cold nutrient‐rich conditions alternate with
warm nutrient‐poor intervals on timescales ranging from months to millennia. In this setting …
