Microplastics (MPs) are an environmental problem of growing concern, and several studies
have defined the Bay of Biscay (BoB) as a marine litter accumulation area. To address the …

Available information and potential data gaps for non-fish marine organisms (cnidarians,
crustaceans, echinoderms, molluscs, sponges, mammals, reptiles, and seabirds) covered by …

Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding is a method to detect taxa from environmental
samples. It is increasingly used for marine biodiversity surveys. As it only requires water …

Both trophic structure and biomass flow within marine food webs are influenced by the
abiotic environment and anthropogenic stressors such as fishing. The abiotic environment …

Characterizing the structure and functioning of marine ecosystems requires a deep
understanding of the dynamics of its populations and the biotic interactions among them. To …

Squid differ from fish by their high growth rate, short life span, and feeding behavior. Their
fast life strategy is thought to impose a high predation pressure on zooplankton, fish, and …

In European waters, climate-induced changes in ocean conditions will alter marine
ecosystems, leading to potential repercussions for the European fisheries and the status of …

Analyzing the long-term changes in ecosystems and disentangling the influence of
overfishing and environment require historical data integration. Fisheries-independent data …

Although quantifying trophic interactions is a critical path to understanding and forecasting
ecosystem functioning, fitting trophic models to field data remains challenging. It requires …

Under climate change, future species assemblages will be driven by the movements and
poleward shift of local species and the arrival of more thermophilic species from lower …
