The implementation was performed existent Ecopath model realized for an area covering 7745 km 2 Go $T$ . described by 58 functional groups and 5 gears, focusing attention four odontocetes: Stenella coeruleoalba, Tursiops truncatus, Grampus griseus, Physeter macrocephalus. A total 67 time series based biomass (35) catches (32) were used fit during calibration step, adopting both automated stepwise manual fitting procedure. best selected run two decades forward projecting simulations (2018–2035) predict odontocetes, setting three different scenarios 1) constant FE as 2018 (baseline); 2) FE+25% between 2019 2023; 3) -25% 2023. T. truncatus showed increase 30.4% endpoint baseline scenario, it only species showing relevant differences scenarios, with a decrease 3.8% 4.3% FE-25 xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">% , respectively, compared baseline.

Furthermore, previous impact mostly ignored fishing activity due a lack standardized historical scenario-based human forcing uneven capabilities dynamically across community. This, addition underrepresentation processes, has limited ability evaluate ensemble’s adequately capture states - crucial step building confidence projections. To address these issues, we developed two parallel simulation experiments (FishMIP 2.0) on: 1) evaluation detection 2) scenarios Key advances include forcing, captures oceanographic features not previously resolved, systematically test effects models. 2.0 key towards attribution framework regional global scales, enhanced relevance through increased ensemble

The evaluation of the status marine communities, and especially monitoring those heavily exploited by fisheries, is a key, challenging task in sciences. Fishing activities are major source disruption to food webs, both directly, selectively removing components at specific trophic levels (TL), indirectly, altering habitats production cycles. Food web analysis can be very useful context an Ecosystem Approach Fisheries, but reconstructions demand large expensive data sets, which typically available only for small fraction ecosystems. Recently, new technologies have been developed easily, quickly cost-effectively collect environmental DNA (eDNA) during fishing activities. By generating large, multi-marker metabarcoding from eDNA samples obtained commercial trawlers, it possible produce exhaustive taxonomic inventories ecosystems, suitable food-web reconstructions. Here, we integrate re-analyse recent study α diversity was investigated using opportunistically collected operations. Indeed, highly resolved information on species feeding relationships reconstruct webs different sites Strait Sicily (Mediterranean Sea) catch data. After observing that networks more consistent with knowledge, set indicators (species richness, number links, direct connectance generality) computed analysed unravel differences structure through areas (spatial variations). Species links generality (positively) (negatively) correlated increasing distance coast effort intensity. combined effects gradients then examined modelled. Taken together, these findings indicate suitability assist analysis, obtain several web-related ecological indicators, tease out effect intensity

Nonetheless, these extend well into social, economic, cultural, political domains The main goal this contribution is characterize how food socioeconomic management actions change. We conducted a systematic literature review covering research published between January 2010 July 2023. Only 47 papers (out an initial pool 506 publications) met our criteria. Based this, it evident that body has been increasing slowly at constant rate – condition not shared with other emerging fields. Modeled were mostly marine (87%), waters 38 countries across 19 Large Marine Ecosystems; albeit in Global North. components reviewed (e.g., functional groups) represented much finer scale than their counterparts.

These shaped methodological approaches followed, as models’ capabilities, simulation drivers, way webs integrated bioeconomic models, performance metrics they reported. less half captured social concerns, only one-third addressed trade-offs among objectives, handful explicitly uncertainty. implications findings discussed detail respect resource managers needs for ecosystem-based management.

Introduction Most Mediterranean fish stocks are overexploited owing to high fishing efforts and poor exploitation patterns. Demersal trawl fisheries considered the most impactful fishery type because of quantities unwanted catch that is then routinely discarded at sea. Methods In present study, two types by-catch reduction devices (BRDs), a sorting grid (Grid-T45 40 mm) T90 50 mm codend, were compared typical commercial bottom net (control) in terms size structures per unit effort assess effect gear modification on selectivity crustacean central Sea. particular, three randomly selected trawlers involved paired hauls experiment same time ground. Each trawler carried out four day during 3-day campaign for total 36 hauls. The target species Parapenaeus longirostris (herein DPS), main Merluccius merluccius HKE). Results results showed landing (LPUE) DPS was higher Grid-T45 net, although it did not differ significantly from control net. Conversely, discard (DPUE) than both BRD configurations. For HKE, slightly LPUE recorded using codend control, but this result statistically significant. lowest DPUE found with significant differences comparison analysed through generalised linear mixed models highlighted more effective catching adult DPS, whereas selective HKE. Discussion conclusion, further studies should be future test performance BRDs different areas seasons, investigated seems promising reducing undersized individuals contributing mitigating current overfishing
