In the Northwestern Mediterranean Sea, European sardine (Sardina pilchardus) and anchovy (Engraulis encrasicolus) are most important small pelagic fish in terms of biomass commercial interest. During last years, these species have experimented changes their abundance trends addition to growth, reproduction body condition. These particularly sensitive environmental fluctuations with possible cascading effects as they play a key role connecting lower upper trophic levels marine food webs. It...

Dynamics of abundance and migrations populations small pelagic clupeoid fish such as anchovy (Engraulis encrasicolus), sardine (Sardina pilchardus), sardinella (Sardinella aurita), sprat (Sprattus sprattus) herring (Clupea harengus) in the eastern North Central Atlantic between Senegal Norway vary synchrony with warm cool phases Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO). This is shown by compiling retrospective data on catches anecdotal observations, which some cases date back to mid-19th century. The...
Small pelagic fish (SPF) in the western Mediterranean Sea are key elements of marine food web and important terms biomass fisheries catches. Significant declines biomass, landings, changes age/size structure sardine Sardina pilchardus anchovy Engraulis encrasicolus have been observed recent decades, particularly northern area Sea. To understand different patterns SPF populations, we analyzed life history traits [total length at age, maturity, gonadosomatic index (GSI), body condition (Kn)]...
Daily growth rates were estimated from larval anchovy (Engraulis encrasicolus) sampled in their main nursery grounds off the Bay of Málaga (SW Mediterranean) during 2000 and 2001 spawning seasons.Significantly higher observed population, representing a 20% increase through size classes analysed.The decimated SW Mediterranean population experienced successful recruitment this year at 13,000 tons for by acoustic evaluation small pelagic resources.The distribution recruited juveniles showed an...
Abstract Tugores, M. P., Iglesias, M., Díaz, N., Oñate, D., Miquel, J., and Giráldez, A. 2010. Latitudinal interannual distribution of the European anchovy (Engraulis encrasicolus) sardine (Sardina pilchardus) in western Mediterranean, sampling uncertainty abundance estimates. – ICES Journal Marine Science, 67: 1574–1586. On Spanish Mediterranean continental shelf, late-autumn echo-integration acoustic surveys have been performed annually since 1990s. The coincide with recruitment season...
The influence of hydrochemistry and trophic conditions on the coastal zooplankton community’s biomass metabolic activities was investigated along Spanish Mediterranean waters, from Algeciras Bay to Barcelona, autumn 2011 2012. Two hydrographic regions were differentiated: NW Alboran (ALB) W (MED). Zooplankton metabolism assessed measurements electron transport system (ETS) aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (AARS) activities, as proxies for potential respiration somatic growth, respectively. showed...
Abstract Time series of European sardine ( Sardina pilchardus ) landings from 1962 and environmental variables 1978 in the northern Alboran Sea are analysed. spawns mid‐autumn to late winter at a temperature range slightly higher than one observed nearby Eastern North Atlantic Western Mediterranean. Individuals hatched during autumn incorporated fishery following summer producing maximum annual landings. These show both decreasing long‐term trend strong inter‐annual variability. Although...
It is widely known that the abundance and distribution dynamics of populations small pelagic clupeid fish, such as sardines anchovies, are affected by large-scale climate variability, which may lead to changeovers new regimes pelagics. However, long-distance climatic oscillations, El Niño/La Niña Pacific Decadal Oscillation, have been little explored in Western Mediterranean Sea. We investigated possible effects South Oscillation Index (i.e. atmospheric oscillation coupled with Niña) on...
Abstract The Bay of Málaga is located in a high biodiversity and productivity area that harbours wide variety commercial species exploited by different fishing fleets. Benthic demersal fauna from circalittoral soft bottoms have been studied using benthic dredge (BD) (8 sampling stations) an otter trawl (OT) stations on seasonal basis). Some sediment water column variables, as well the trawling activity, also used for analysing their linkage with fauna. A total 287 found these fish, molluscs...
