Global ocean physical and chemical trends are reviewed updated using seven key climate change indicators: (i) Sea Surface Temperature, (ii) Ocean Heat Content, (iii) pH, (iv) Dissolved Oxygen concentration (v) Arctic Ice extent, thickness, volume (vi) Level (vii) the strength of Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC). The globally averaged surface temperature shows a mean warming trend 0.062 ± 0.013°C per decade over last 120 years (1900–2019). During (2010–2019) rate has...
Marine citizen science is emerging with promising opportunities for science, policy and public but there still no comprehensive overview of the current state in Europe. Based on 127 projects identified North Sea area we estimate might be as much 500 marine coastal running Europe, i.e., one project per ∼85 km coastline, an exponential growth since 1990. Beach-based are more accessible hence most popular (60% projects), mean duration 18–20 years. Current trends, topics, organizers, aims, types...
This Collective article reports 17 introduced species and 22 new locations for these in the Mediterranean Sea. The are from three different Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) subregions (Aegean-Levantine Sea, Adriatic Sea Western Sea) of Marmara cover ten countries. goal consistent detailed reporting is to complement existing inventories serve as a basis establishing monitoring strategies other conservation measures.

We explored the possible effects of North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) and Arctic (AO) on interannual sea surface temperature (SST) variations in Alborán Sea, both separately combined. The probability observing mean annual SST values higher than average was related to NAO AO previous year. effect negative, while that positive. pure are obscuring each other, due positive correlation between them. When decomposing SST, seasonal values, we found variation winter significantly autumn year, summer...
Surface longline gears are used to fish different species, mainly albacore Thunnus alalunga (Bonnaterre, 1788), bluefin tuna thynnus (Linnaeus, 1758), and swordfish Xiphias gladius Linnaeus, 1758, considered highly dangerous for threatened marine turtles. Loggerheads Caretta caretta 1758) can be incidentally captured by surface longlines. A number of individuals die during the fishing operation, which we consider direct mortality due fishing. We analysed relative loggerhead by-catch...
Jellyfish swarms affect littoral ecosystems, are unpleasant for bathers and jeopardize coastal socio-economic sectors. Anticipating the incidence of jellyfish could be useful implementing preventive management measures. Macroclimatic indices good candidates this type anticipation since they macro-ecologically related to oceanographic characteristics that marine species after a certain time lag. An increase has been recently reported in Mediterranean Sea. From 2005 2018, province Malaga...
Abstract In the Northern Alboran Sea, artisanal small-scale fisheries using trammel nets suffer economic losses, and local fishermen see their way-of-life endangered, due to interactions with wildlife species such as alien dolphins. On one hand, seaweed Rugulopteryx okamurae , which was first recorded in Sea 2015, has undergone an intensive expansion sub-region, monopolizing available seabed, causing radical changes underwater seascape clogging nets. other damage caused fishing by dolphin...
ABSTRACT We use data collected by onboard observers to assess the bycatch and immediate mortality of sea turtles in Canary Current Large Marine Ecosystem (CCLME) adjoining areas from 2016 2021. First, a dataset including 698 sets drifting longliners, 6300 tows trawlers 1029 purse seiners was used calculate catch per unit effort for each species fleet. Second, compiled International Commission Conservation Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT) Global Fishing Watch were escalate whole Third, we post‐release...
This collective study presents information on fifteen (15) species recorded across five countries (Greece, Italy, Slovenia, Spain, and Türkiye) four (4) ecoregions, ranging from the Alboran Sea to Aegean Sea. The belong three phyla: Mollusca (3 species), Arthropoda Chordata (9 species). Among mollusks, Martadoris mediterranea is reported for first time in at two different locations, while Opisthoteuthis calypso Octopoteuthis sicula are newly western Mediterranean. Regarding arthropods,...

Drifting Fish Aggregating Devices (dFADs) are currently made with synthetic and non-biodegradable materials contributing to the increase of marine litter other potential ecosystem impacts. Tuna RFMOs have promoted research progressive replacement existing FADs by non-entangling biodegradable (bioFADs). Here, we present results first large-scale FAD project in Indian Ocean develop implement use dFADs. The bioFAD tested were fully without netting minimizing completely risk entanglement. Tested...
