Hunting and fishing are often size-selective, which favours slow body growth. In addition,
fast growth rate has been shown to be positively correlated with behavioural traits that …

Establishment of artificial reefs and no-take areas are management measures available for
restoring deteriorated marine ecosystems, compensating for habitat loss and strengthening …

Marine protected areas (MPAs) have been proven to protect sessile organisms and territorial
commercial fish successfully. These areas may also protect populations of commercial …

The spatial complexity of coastal ecosystems represents a challenge for the management of
inshore resources. Here we compared two large fjord systems in northern Norway that have …

An ecosystem's ability to maintain key functions during environmental change is largely
determined by its biodiversity. We compared fish species composition, richness, diversity …

Marine protected areas (MPAs) are increasingly established worldwide to protect and
restore degraded ecosystems. However, the level of protection varies among MPAs and has …

Lobster (Panulirus spp.) is a leading commodity on a local and export scale in Aceh
Province, Indonesia, where the population has experienced a significant decline in recent …

This study examined research and development of the commercially important marine
lobster, in terms of descriptive metadata and scientometric analysis. We consider a …

This study provides the first documentation of three deep conspecific lineages within
Panulirus polyphagus in the Indian Ocean, bridging the gap in genetic research …

The larvae of many marine species are pelagic drifters in the vast oceans, yet they are the
first and, for sessile species, the only way to connect with other populations. Connectivity is …
