Habitat selection is a complex process, which involves behavioural decisions guided by the
multiple needs and constraints faced by individuals. Climate‐induced changes in …

Resolving the relationship between demersal fish and sublittoral biotic habitats and
substrates is a key element in the protection of important nursery grounds for strengthening …

Diel variation in the catchability of 51 species of fish and 13 invertebrate taxa from an annual
bottom-trawl survey of the southern Gulf of St. Lawrence was examined using generalized …

Acoustic telemetry was used to monitor the movements and landscape scale habitat use of
age 2–3 year juvenile Atlantic cod Gadus morhua in Newman Sound, a coastal fjord of …

Kelp forests provide important ecosystem services, yet coastal kelp communities are
increasingly altered by anthropogenic impacts. Kelp forests in remote, offshore locations …

Habitat use of age-0 and age-1 juvenile Pacific cod (Gadus macrocephalus) was examined
in coastal regions in Kodiak Alaska over daily, seasonal and annual scales. Catch data …

Global declines of eelgrass (Zostera marina) have major ramifications for the juvenile fishes
for which this plant can provide nursery habitat. However, it is less clear how rapidly fishes …

Abiotic conditions greatly influence the distribution and abundance of marine organisms
during early life-history phases. For instance, factors such as habitat heterogeneity often …

As human impacts continue to threaten coastal habitats and ecosystems, marine benthic
habitat and substrate mapping has become a key component of many conservation and …

We put forward a combined observing and modeling strategy for evaluating effects of
environmental forcing on the dynamics of spatially structured cod populations spawning in …
