Abstract:
... A particularly concerning outcome of environmental pollution is the disturbance of reproductive processes. However, studies on the impacts of pollution on the reproductive health of fish inhabiting South American environments are limited. We studied the impact of anthropogenic pollution on the reproductive health of two sympatric Patagonian marine fish species with different reproductive strategie ...

Abstract:
... Rockfish (genus Sebastes) assemblages can inform mechanisms of coexistence and maintenance of diversity in ecological communities. Coexistence theory characterizes ecological assemblages as following either a deterministic niche differentiation model, or a stochastic lottery model. We used natural abundances of carbon and nitrogen stable isotopes from the tissues of ten co-occurring species of roc ...

Abstract:
... Over a decade ago, ocean acidification (OA) exposure was reported to induce otolith overgrowth in teleost fish. This phenomenon was subsequently confirmed in multiple species; however, the underlying physiological causes remain unknown. Here, we report that splitnose rockfish (Sebastes diploproa) exposed to ~1600 μatm pCO₂(pH ~7.5) were able to fully regulated the pH of both blood and endolymph (t ...

Abstract:
... Gonadal structure, cytological condition of oocytes, ultrastructure of egg envelope, and spermatozoa morphology are studied in the individuals of Inimicus sinensis 120–230 mm TL with the gonads mainly at maturity stage IV. The males possess hypertrophied urinary bladders. Based on oocytes’ size distribution in the ovaries, the oogenesis is continuous and the spawning is multiple. Oocytes of the ma ...

Abstract:
... The role that west coast estuarine habitats play in the early life history of many nearshore marine fishes is poorly understood, in part due to the limited temporal sampling of estuarine habitats. To begin to understand this role, we compared the juvenile demersal fish community between two habitat types at a marine-dominated estuary on the northeast Pacific coast and examined how community struct ...

Abstract:
... The Nordmøre grid is the principle bycatch mitigation device in many shrimp trawl fisheries. However, in several of these fisheries, bycatch is a problem because small sized fish can pass through the grid and enter the codend together with the targeted shrimp. One such fishery is the Northeast Atlantic deep-water shrimp (Pandalus borealis) fishery, where the use of a Nordmøre grid is mandatory. In ...

Using an information-theoretic approach, we found that community composition ...
