Abstract Stock‐based and ecosystem‐based indicators are used to provide a new diagnosis of the fishing impact environmental status E uropean seas. In seven European marine ecosystems covering B altic N orth‐east A tlantic, (i) trends in landings since 1950 were examined; (ii) syntheses fish stocks consolidated at ecosystem level; (iii) based on surveys analysed. We show that yields began decrease everywhere (except altic) from mid‐1970s, as result over‐exploitation some major stocks....
The effects of climate and fishing on marine ecosystems have usually been studied separately, but their interactions make ecosystem dynamics difficult to understand predict. Of particular interest management, the potential synergism or antagonism between pressure forcing is analysed in this paper, using an end-to-end model southern Benguela ecosystem, built from coupling hydrodynamic, biogeochemical multispecies fish models (ROMS-N2P2Z2D2-OSMOSE). Scenarios different intensities...
There is an increasing need to understand ecosystem responses multiple stressors in that such complex depend not only on species-level responses, but also species interactions and structure. In this study, we used a multi-model simulation approach explore the combined effects of fishing primary productivity different components food-web across suite ecosystems range model types. Simulations were carried out under levels various scenarios. addition exploring synergistic, additive or...
Eutrophication is one of the most important anthropogenic pressures impacting coastal seas. In Europe, several legislations and management measures have been implemented to halt nutrient overloading in marine ecosystems. This study evaluates impact freshwater control on higher trophic levels (HTL) European ecosystems following descriptors criteria as defined by Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD). We used a novel pan-European modeling ensemble fourteen HTL models, covering almost all...
Abstract Depth is one of the environmental variables influencing structure marine food webs by directly or indirectly benthic‐pelagic coupling and predator‐prey relationships. In shallow waters, high degree connectivity between pelagic benthic networks results in complex systems with multiple interactions. Digestive tract (DT) stable isotope (SI) analyses were used to investigate depth‐related changes feeding patterns for 33 fish species (eastern English Channel [EEC]) collected 5 m 80...
The move toward an ecosystem-based fisheries management (EBFM) requires new operational tools in order to support decisions. Among them, ecosystem- and fisheries-based models are critical quantitatively predict the consequences of future scenarios by integrating available knowledge about ecosystem across different scales. Despite increasing development these complex system last decades, their use is still currently limited Europe. Many guidelines already help for advice yet they often...
Abstract The concept of ecological interaction networks has been widely used in fundamental ecology the last two decades and progressively infused a diverse array applied studies. Classical studies represented species interactions as static webs to identify generalities structure understand propagation indirect effects on each other environment. More recent research demonstrates that are emerging features community processes. Understanding determinants variability space time its consequences...
In order to better understand ecosystem functioning under simultaneous pressures (e.g. both climate change and fishing pressures), integrated modelling approaches are advocated. We developed an end-to-end model of the southern Benguela by coupling high trophic level OSMOSE with a biophysical (ROMS-N2P2Z2D2). is spatial, multispecies, individual-based simulating whole life cycle fish schools interacting through opportunistic size-based predation. It linked biogeochemical predation process;...
Identifying the various drivers of marine ecosystem regime shifts and disentangling their respective influence are critical tasks for understanding biodiversity dynamics properly managing exploited living resources such as fish communities. Unfortunately, mechanisms forcing factors underlying in communities still largely unknown although climate anthropogenic pressures fishing have been suggested key determinants. Based on a 24-year-long time-series scientific surveys monitoring 55...
