Spatial behavioural types (SBTs) arise from between-individual differences in behavioural
traits that foster spatial behavioural patterns that are consistent over time and ecological …

Accurate and precise monitoring of the absolute density (ie, number of fish per area or
volume unit) of exploited fish stocks would be strongly advisable for deriving stock status …

The pelagic ecosystem is the ocean's largest by volume and of major importance for food
provision and carbon cycling. The high fish species diversity common in the tropics presents …

Technological advances in underwater video recording are providing novel opportunities for
monitoring wild fish. Although extracting data from videos is often challenging, accurate and …

Gelatinous zooplankton populations have increased in some regions, specifically
Norwegian fjords, which has likely increased the occurrence of dead jellyfish aggregations …

Baited remote underwater stereo-video systems (BRUVs) are being adopted globally as a
sampling method for surveying fish assemblages. The literature demonstrates that …

Accurately estimating the population density of deep-sea fish with a baited camera system
has long been a significant challenge. Although several theoretical models have been …

Population size ('abundance') is a key parameter for wildlife conservation. As technology
advances, new sampling techniques become available for which established estimation …

Pacific Herring play a critical role in the food web of the Salish Sea. The Cherry Point stock,
centered 30 miles north of Bellingham Bay, has declined roughly 97% since the 1970s. This …

Predators often have strong top-down effects on ecosystems and are considered a priority
for conservation and management. Predator activity can influence prey distribution …
