Abstract Ocean warming and acidification, decreases in dissolved oxygen concentrations, changes primary production are causing an unprecedented global redistribution of marine life. The identification underlying ecological processes underpinning species turnover, particularly the prevalence increases warm-water or declines cold-water species, has been recently debated context ocean warming. Here, we track mean thermal affinity communities across European seas by calculating Community...
Abstract Tuna are globally distributed species of major commercial importance and some tuna a source protein in many countries. characterized by dynamic distribution patterns that respond to climate variability long‐term change. Here, we investigated the effect environmental conditions on worldwide relative abundance six between 1958 2004 estimated expected end‐of‐the‐century changes based high‐greenhouse gas concentration scenario ( RCP 8.5). We created models using Japanese longline...
Abstract Chust, G., Castellani, C., Licandro, P., Ibaibarriaga, L., Sagarminaga, Y., and Irigoien, X. 2014. Are Calanus spp. shifting poleward in the North Atlantic? A habitat modelling approach. – ICES Journal of Marine Science, 71: 241–253. In last decade, analysis based on Continuous Plankton Recorder survey eastern Atlantic Ocean detected one most striking examples marine migration related to sea warming. The main objective this study is verify shift zooplankton species (Calanus...
Abstract The World Conference on Stock Assessment Methods (July 2013) included a workshop testing assessment methods through simulations. exercise was made up of two steps applied to datasets from 14 representative fish stocks around the world. Step 1 involved applying stock assessments with varying degrees effort dedicated optimizing fit. 2 subset and characteristics given model fits being used generate pseudo-data error. These were then provided modellers consistency checks within...

ABSTRACT The distribution of egg and larvae mackerel, horse sardine, hake, megrim, blue whiting anchovy along the European Atlantic waters (south Portugal to Scotland) during 1998 is described. Time year, sea surface temperature bottom depth are used define spawning habitat different species. Mackerel, sardine eggs presented widest distribution, whereas megrim showed a limited restricted Celtic Sea Bay Biscay respectively. Correspondingly mackerel highest aggregation indices. Blue were found...
Poleward distributional shifts and phenological adjustments are universal ecological responses to ocean warming. Though they commonly addressed as independent processes, phenology usually depends on the latitudinal location where an organism lives. Such interaction can mask actual impacts of warming may even constrain ability a species cope with We propose framework analyse alternative acclimatization pathways that accounts for pure shifts, adjustments, mixed response. tested this analysing...
This paper summarizes the lessons learnt for management of small pelagic fish from case study managing international fishery on Bay Biscay anchovy. A constant catch regime ended up with a crash and closure (2005–2009) after series recruitment failures. Precautionary advices had been disregarded due to their inability predict size population during first half year when major takes place. The triggered EU develop long-term plan in 2008. In absence indicator, biological risk was minimized...
Among the various challenges facing tropical tuna purse seine fleet are need to reduce fuel consumption and carbon footprint, as well minimising bycatch of vulnerable species. Tools designed for forecasting optimum fishing grounds can contribute adapting changes in fish distribution due climate change, by identifying location new suitable grounds, thus reducing search time. While information about high probability find species could result a reduction. The present study aims at contributing...
Fisheries have a crucial contribution, with animal protein supply and economic income, to the subsistence blue economy of several human societies Atlantic Ocean, second largest water body in planet. However, an accurate distribution commercial fish across through column is still unknown. The wide use Species Distribution Models (SDMs) for marine mapping generally faces two shortcomings: (i) ignoring vertical dimension ocean; (ii) ecological niche theory model fitting. Our aim develop 3D...
Abstract In this study the spatial distribution of eggs, larvae and juveniles European anchovy ( Engraulis encrasicolus ) was followed in 2004 2005 during three consecutive cruises each year spring–summer to test what limits retention are a non‐upwelling area. Eggs, small large were mainly distributed over shelf, whereas found off shelf. Although overall distributions similar, 2 yr differed that there more coastal individuals 2004, There no significant differences length–weight relationships...

Abstract Marine species have exhibited trends in their geographic distribution and phenology recent decades, these changes are triggered by climate variability or anthropogenic pressures. Northeast Atlantic albacore has recently been identified to show of this nature, although the underlying causes still uncertain. The aim work was analyse shifts phenological during trophic migration that juveniles undertake from late spring autumn identify potential such variability. Specifically, time...
This paper describes how multinomial models can be used to study developmental rates of biological processes and these are affected by different factors such as temperature or parental effects. First, the most common for ordinal categorical data (namely, proportional odds, continuation-ratio, extended continuation-ratio models) described within particular framework discrete ordered stage classified processes. Then, extraction from fitted a series biologically meaningful parameters is...
