Better knowledge of food search behaviour in fish is essential for studies that aim to improve longline fishing, particularly through bait development. This review provides an overview our understanding how detect and locate sources odour, focusing on the stimuli sensory modalities involved, factors affect feeding activity. Studies identify attractants efforts develop alternative baits are presented. The reveals such few number, date there no alternatives traditional commercial longlining...
Alternating periods of food deprivation with those unlimited provision depressed the growth Arctic charr, Salvelinus alpinus , below that controls. Fish were deprived and then fed on alternate weeks (1:1) larger than exposed to 1 5‐ or 3‐week feeding (1·5:1·5 3:3). On receiving excess supplies following 24 restricted regimes previously‐restricted fish grew more rapidly The greatest compensatory was displayed after 3:3 regime, followed by 1·5: 1·5 1:1 regime. At termination experiment there...
Red king crab and snow have both become important species for the Norwegian seafood industry. Since first commercial harvest of red in 2002 2012, industry has developed new technology knowledge handling these species. This includes fishing gear, conditions live storage processing, by-products, entrance into markets. The total quota increased from 220 metric tons to 2350 2017, with a free-red harvesting zone west quota-regulated area prevent further expansion crab. At present, there is no...
Abstract Aim A focal task for invasion biology is to identify the environmental variables and biological traits that set underpin realised potential habitats of invasive species. Ecophysiology provides powerful empirical knowledge connects theory with natural phenomena may improve accuracy species distribution modelling. We used introduced Kamchatka red king crab Paralithodes camtschaticus Barents Sea as a prime case show how thermal behaviour drive spreading marine invader in context ocean...
Mildly cooked snow crab clusters were subjected to three freezing methods (in brine, in still air, and circulating air), two frozen storage times (72 h 6 months), thawing air water) followed by refrigerated storage.

The current study investigates whether it is possible to increase the meat content of captive male king crab (Paralithodes camtschaticus) (average = 2.2 kg) by feeding manufactured diets at different temperatures (4°C, 8°C and 12°C). A 110 days trial was undertaken with groups crabs held in 12 land-based holding tanks. All survival lowest temperature treatment, one animal died medium-temperature group (8°C) four animals highest treatment (12°C). results showed that feed intake increased...
Live transport of red king crab from the fishing grounds to market is an activity that increasing and future sustainability this practice depends on maintaining optimal animal welfare during transport. The current study evaluated physiological response (Paralithodes camtschaticus) live air transport, mimicking commercial practices. Specifically, assessed stress osmoregulatory haemolymph metabolite variation, together with free amino acids (FAAs) pool variation in crab. Forty male crabs (2136...
During a 2018 retrieval cruise for abandoned snow crab (Chionoecetes opilio) pots in the Barents Sea, approximately 8600 1.5 years earlier were recovered. Forty-three percent of subsample 1000 contained crabs, with an average three crabs per pot. Most alive (~98%) and dominated by large males. Pinch injuries limb loss common tended to decline increasing size. Reflex testing showed that vital (i.e. moved their legs, chelipeds maxillipeds when stimulated), which was supported relatively high...
