Significance Currently many exploited fish populations, including of the Atlantic cod stocks, are at historically low levels with widespread concern about whether contemporary management is capable facilitating population recovery. In contrast, spawning stock biomass Barents Sea now an historic high. Here we demonstrate that successful actions interacting synergistically prevailing climate caused this increase. Warming water masses in over last decade positively reinforced actions. A unique...
The effect of propranolol (0.1 mg/kg intravenously followed by 320 mg given over 27 hour orally) on serum levels creatine kinase enzyme was studied in a randomized trial involving 95 patients seen within 12 hours onset symptoms uncomplicated myocardial infarction. In 15 who were treated with 4 onset, and eventually developed pathological Q waves, peak measured 27% (P less than 0.0125) lower 19 control also the but had no specific treatment. Total calculated appearance (reduced 25%, P 0.05)...
How can uncertain fisheries science be linked with good governance processes, thereby increasing management legitimacy and effectiveness? Reducing the uncertainties around scientific models has long been perceived as cure of problem. There is however recognition that uncertainty in numbers will remain. A lack transparency respect to these damage credibility science. The EU Commission's proposal for a reformed Common Fisheries Policy calls more self-management fishing industry by fishers'...
Although many countries have formally committed to Ecosystem-Based Fisheries Management (EBFM), actual progress toward these goals has been slow. This paper presents two independent case studies that combined strategic advice from ecosystem modeling with the tactical of single-species assessment models provide practical ecosystem-based management advice. With this approach, stock status, reference points, and initial target F are computed a model, then an model rescales according indicators...
Climate-related shifts in marine mammal range and distribution have been observed some populations; however, the nature magnitude of future responses are uncertain novel environments projected under climate change. This poses a challenge for agencies charged with management conservation these species. Specialized diets, restricted ranges, or reliance on specific substrates sites (eg pupping) make many populations particularly vulnerable to High-latitude, predominantly ice-obligate, species...

Abstract Multispecies models have existed in a fisheries context since at least the 1970s, but despite much exploration, advancement, and consideration of multispecies models, there remain limited examples their operational use fishery management. Given that species fleet interactions are inherently problems push towards ecosystem-based management, lack more regular is both surprising compelling. We identify impediments hampering provide recommendations to address those impediments. These...
Balanced harvest has been proposed to reduce fishing impact on ecosystems while simultaneously maintaining or even increasing fishery yield. The concept attracted broad interest, but also received criticisms. In this paper, we examine the theory, modelling studies, empirical evidence, legal and policy frameworks, management implications of balanced harvest. examination reveals unresolved issues challenges from both scientific perspectives. We summarize current knowledge address common...
Although frequently suggested as a goal for ecosystem-based fisheries management, incorporating ecosystem information into stock assessments has proven challenging. The uncertainty of input data, coupled with the structural complex multi-species models, currently makes use absolute values from such models contentious short-term single-species management advice. Here, we propose different approach where standard assessment methodologies can be enhanced using model derived information. Using...
We simulate oil spills of 1500 and 4500m3/day lasting 14, 45, 90days in the spawning grounds commercial fish species, Northeast Arctic cod. Modeling life history individual eggs larvae, we predict deviations from historical pattern recruitment to adult population due toxic exposures. Reductions survival for pelagic stages cod were 0-10%, up a maximum 43%. These reductions resulted decrease biomass <3% most scenarios, 12%. In all simulations, remained at full reproductive potential with...
Heated debates are currently taking place on whether to open the area of Lofoten and Vesterålen in Northern Norway for petroleum production. Seismic explorations this have indicated promising resources. The is known its unique landscape as a key spawning nursery several economically important fish species. It hosts significant bird colonies world's largest-known deep-sea coral reef. New areas will be opened production only if high environmental value can maintained. A risk analysis approach...
An 0-group fish survey is conducted annually in the Barents Sea order to estimate population abundance. Data on jellyfish by-catch have been recorded since 1980, although this dataset has never analysed. In recent years, however, ecological importance of medusae become widely recognized. paper biomass (medusae) 0–60 m depths calculated for period 1980–2010. During climate changed from cold warm, and changes zooplankton distribution abundance were observed. This discusses less well known...
The UK Biobank (UKBB) is a large population-based cohort that provides unique opportunity to study the association between environmental exposure and biomarkers identify as potential instruments for assessing dose, health damage, disease risks. On 462 063 participants of European ancestry, we characterized relationship 38 disease-relevant biomarkers, asthma diagnosis, ambient pollution, traffic factors, genetic background. air pollutant on UKBB was fairly low (e.g., mean PM2.5 concentration...

A combined Gadget/FLR model for management strategy evaluations of the Barents Sea fisheries. – ICES Journal Marine Science, 67: 1998–2004. biologically sensible age–length structured multispecies Gadget (incorporating minke whales, cod, herring, capelin) Sea—acting as operating model—has been linked to Fisheries Library in R—acting procedure—to perform evaluations. Assessments may be run using either XSA, survey-based methods, or by taking modelled...
“Balanced Harvesting” (BH) has been suggested as a possible strategy to meet the objectives of Ecosystem Approach Fisheries, ensuring high sustainable yield while maintaining ecosystem structure and function. BH proposes moderate fishing mortality in proportion productivity spread across widest range species, stocks, sizes an producing overall non-selective harvest. The Norwegian Barents Seas have subjected pressure on commercial elements ecosystem-based approach management for many years,...

Recent observations have indicated that cod distribution within Sea is expanding towards northeast. The area into which are has historically been an with large stocks polar capelin. It can be expected continued expansion this region would lead to greater availability these forage fish for predation a direct impact on stock....
Abstract Data suggest that for some years there has been a positive relationship between the recruitment of cod in Barents Sea and sea temperature at Kola section during year spawning. However, analysis most recent data indicates this no longer holds. This change dynamics will clearly have an impact on our understanding future stock long-term yield. It also highlights impacts arising from possible changes similar relationships other species ecosystems ability to predict biological responses...
Abstract A new approach for estimating the fishing mortality benchmark Fmsy (fishing pressure that corresponds to maximum sustainable yield) is proposed. The includes density-dependent factors. analysis considers 53 data-rich fish stocks in Northeast Atlantic. values are estimated from an ensemble of data sources: (i) applying traditional surplus production models on time-series historic stock sizes, mortalities, and catches current annual assessments; (ii) dynamic pool model (e.g....
