Abstract Jacinto, D., Cruz, T., Silva, and Castro, J. 2010. Stalked barnacle (Pollicipes pollicipes) harvesting in the Berlengas Nature Reserve, Portugal: temporal variation validation of logbook data. – ICES Journal Marine Science, 67: 19–25. exploitation at Portugal, by professional harvesters has been subject to specific regulation since 2000. The only available information on there comes from catch reports (logbooks) provided harvesters. We evaluated quality information, described...
Kelp communities are in decline many regions. Detecting and addressing population declines require knowledge of patterns spatial temporal variation the distribution abundance kelps their associated organisms. We quantified kelp macroalgal assemblages three times over a period 2 years, at regions along natural gradient temperature nutrient availability across Portuguese coast. Kelps were mostly found northern cool region (Viana do Castelo), which was also clearly separated from two more...
The stalked barnacle Pollicipes pollicipes (Gmelin, 1790) is an important shellfish resource in Portugal. Due to the social-economic importance of harvesting, a management plan aimed at achieving controlled and sustainable activity (including temporal spatial closures, rotational limited number harvesting licenses, bag size limits for catches catch reporting) was implemented 2000 Berlengas Nature Reserve (RNB) central We evaluated imposed by plan, performing observations on asking licensed...
The stalked barnacle Pollicipes pollicipes is an abundant species on the very exposed rocky shore habitats of Spanish and Portuguese coasts, constituting also important economical resource, as a seafood item with high commercial value. Twenty-four elements were measured by untargeted total reflection X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (TXRF) in edible peduncle barnacles sampled six sites along western coast, comprising 90 individuals. elemental profile individuals originated from several...

The rock burrowing sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus is a common wave-swept organism that inhabits intertidal pools and shallow subtidal temperate shores. Here we present field data on P. attachment force, burrow shape test diameter measured in different rocky habitats (intertidal pools, low shore channels shores) two study sites with wave-exposure conditions. These were then analyzed to look for possible relationship between the size of urchins their force as well influence habitat...
This study describes the use of calcein as a chemical tagging methodology to estimate growth rate variation stalked barnacle Pollicipes pollicipes, an ecologically important intertidal species and economic resource, in SW Portugal. Calcein had high success (94%) marking both juvenile adult barnacles for period 2.5 months, providing valuable method obtaining reliable data studies P. pollicipes. Growth decreased with size was highly variable amongst individuals, particularly smaller barnacles....

Abstract Understanding recruitment patterns of an exploited species is essential to predict changes in population dynamics and improve its management conservation. Temporal variability the edible stalked barnacle Pollicipes pollicipes was analyzed over a decade (consecutive annual seasons from 2007 2016) at cape area located Canary‐Iberia Current Upwelling System (Cape Sines, Southwestern Portugal), terms (1) timing length main season (2) variation monthly intensity relationship with several...
In January 2020, a stakeholder workshop was organized as knowledge sharing strategy among European stalked barnacle fisheries. Management of this fishery differs greatly regions and ranges from less governed at large scales (>100 km, coasts SW Portugal Brittany in France) to highly participatory systems which are co-managed small spatial (10′s km less, Galicia Asturias). Discussions revealed that poaching is ubiquitous, hard eradicate, adapts all types management. The stakeholders identified...
Abstract Understanding large-scale spatial and temporal patterns of marine populations is a central goal in ecology, which has received renewed attention under climate change. However, few studies explore the dynamics using standardized protocols during same time frames. We studied phenology intensity reproduction recruitment for intertidal stalked barnacle Pollicipes pollicipes over an European scale described their potential linkages with environmental variables. This species supports...
Native Colorado River fishes in Grand Canyon are studied extensively using Passive Integrated Transponder (PIT) tags. Since 1991 over 7,000 bluehead suckers (Catostomus discobolus) have been PIT tagged Canyon, but few of these fish ever recaptured. The combination low recapture rates and no previous studies on tag retention or induced mortality led us to evaluate tagging methods for suckers. We held 18 a net pen 2-6 days after capture tag-induced mortality. No loss was observed only one died...
