The northern pike (Esox lucius) is an iconic predatory fish species of significant recreational value and ecological role in the Baltic Sea. Some earlier studies indicate local declines region, but a thorough spatial evaluation regional population trends Sea lacking. In this study, we collate data from 59 unique time-series fisheries landings fishery-independent monitoring programs to address temporal populations since mid-2000′s eight countries surrounding common analysis considering all...
Abstract Under rapid environmental change, opportunistic species may exhibit dramatic increases in response to the altered conditions, and can turn have large impacts on ecosystem. One such is three-spined stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus), which has shown substantial several aquatic systems recent decades. Here, we review population development of Baltic Sea, a brackish water ecosystem subject change. Current evidence points predatory release being central driver observed some areas,...
The invasive round goby (Neogobius melanostomus) was established in the coastal waters of Baltic Sea early 1990s. first observation species Latvian 2004. In intervening period, population grew, became significance for local fisheries, and it likely impacted ecosystem Sea. this study, we characterize spatial–temporal development using data from three different scientific fisheries-independent surveys. We also include commercial fisheries landings to describe targeting species. Our results...
