We propose an approach for predicting the métier of any given fishing trip from its landing records. Métier predictions produced with the proposed approach are closer to the actual uses of fishers, providing better grounds for an improved management. Palmer M, Tolosa...

Fisheries and aquaculture contribute substantially to the coastal economies of the United Kingdom (UK) and Ireland, and climate change is likely to have significant impacts. Documented effects on fisheries include both losses where availability of traditional stocks...

Despite the DPSIR (Driver-Pressure-State-Impact-Response) approach being used for a long time, there is still confusion over the definition of its terms and so to be appropriate for current marine management, we contend that this confusion needs to be addressed. Our...

Stings from the hydrozoan species in the genus Physalia cause intense, immediate skin pain and elicit serious systemic effects. There has been much scientific debate about the most appropriate first aid for these stings, particularly with regard to whether vinegar use...

The life history of a species is determined by trade‐offs between growth, survival and reproduction to maximize fitness in a given environment. Following a theoretical model, we investigate whether the composition of marine fish communities can be understood in terms...
