Species distribution models (SDMs) are widely used to relate species occurrence and
density to local environmental conditions, and often include a spatially correlated variable to …

To effectively future-proof the management of the European Union fishing fleets we have
explored a suite of case studies encompassing the northeast and tropical Atlantic, the …

In many situations, species distribution models need to make use of multiple data sources to
address their objectives. We developed a spatio-temporal modelling framework that …

Integrated stock assessments specify a distribution for multiple data types, and these
distributions control the relative leverage assigned to each datum. A decade of research has …

Climate change is altering the productivity of marine fisheries and challenging the
effectiveness of historical fisheries management. Harvest control rules, which describe the …

Scientific bottom-trawl surveys are ecological observation programs conducted along
continental shelves and slopes of seas and oceans that sample marine communities …

Spatio-temporal models are widely applied to standardise research survey data and are
increasingly used to generate density maps and indices from other data sources. We …

Small pelagic fishes occupy an important trophic role in every global aquatic ecosystem, and
many species are heavily exploited by fisheries, including some of the largest and most …

Recent changes in climate have had generally negative impacts on salmon stocks in the
eastern and positive effects in the western Bering Sea (WBS). Eastern Bering Sea (EBS) …

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 …
