Student Profile: Anna Luna Rossi
Anna is a second-year PhD student at the Institute for the Oceans and Fisheries under the supervision of Daniel Pauly. Her research focuses on understanding the fisheries and their impact on the marine ecosystem in the archipelago of Saint Pierre and Miquelon to infer relevant fishery regulations.
Taking seriously the explanations on shrinking fish in a warming world
Given that the temperature increase and fish shrinking trends are not slowing down, the debate around the mechanistic models that explain their causes has become nothing but heated.
Global North’s growing appetite for farmed salmon imperils communities’ access to local fish
The growing appetite for expensive farmed salmon can leave coastal communities struggling to access affordable local fish like sardines and anchovies
New FCRR: Marine and Freshwater Miscellanea V
This report presents a valuable collection of studies that contribute to both foundational research and impactful discussion in fisheries science and marine ecology.
Fisheries Research Overestimates Fish Stocks
As the abundance of global fish populations continues to deteriorate, top fisheries researchers are calling for simpler yet more accurate stock assessment models that avoid overly optimistic scientific advice, which ends up encouraging overfishing.
Reconstruction of Freshwater Fisheries Catches: Canada, Minnesota (USA), and ASEAN Countries
New Fisheries Centre Research Report just released, from Sea Around Us.
Industrial fleets operating in the Indian Ocean turn off monitoring systems, fail reporting obligations
Industrial fleets from top fishing countries operating in the Indian Ocean and targeting export-market species such as tuna and squid are likely to disable monitoring systems to fish more than allowed and evade authorities
Daniel Pauly receives 2024 Sartún Award
During the 2024 Meeting of the Seas held in Tenerife, Spain, Dr. Daniel Pauly, was granted the Sartún Award, in recognition of his +40-year career working for the protection of the global ocean.
Marine sharks and rays ‘use’ urea to delay reproduction
Researchers found that high urea concentrations common in cartilaginous fish, particularly oviparous marine species, allow them to mature and begin to reproduce at a larger fraction of their maximal size.
The fisheries biology and ecology of the anchovy genera Stolephorus and Encrasicholina in the Indo-West Central Pacific Region
New Fisheries Centre Research Report (FCRR) now available.
