Fishes are the dominant vertebrates in the ocean, yet we know little of their contribution to
carbon export flux at regional to global scales. We synthesize the existing information on fish …

Individual decisions regarding how, why and when organisms interact with one another and
with their environment scale up to shape patterns and processes in communities. Recent …

The Earth's ecosystems are increasingly deprived of large animals. Global simulations
suggest that this downsizing of nature has serious consequences for biosphere functioning …

Understanding the responses of aquatic animals to temperature variability is essential to
predict impacts of future climate change and to inform conservation and management. Most …

Abstract The effectiveness of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) depends on the mobility of the
populations that are the target of protection, with sedentary species likely to spend more time …

The ocean is a key component of the Earth's dynamics, providing a great variety of
ecosystem services to humans. Yet, human activities are globally changing its structure and …

Predation is a fundamental aspect of ecology that drives ecosystem structure and function. A
better understanding of predation can be facilitated by using electronic tags that log or …

Despite our critical dependence on aquatic wildlife, we lack a complete understanding of the
drivers of population stability and structure for most fish species. Social network analysis has …

Anguillid eels were once considered to be the classic example of catadromy. However,
alternative life cycles have been reported, including skipping the freshwater phase and …

Understanding the movement ecology of fish communities is necessary to take effective
management actions that aim to reverse population declines, especially in fish stocks …
