Journal ArticleDOI
A comparison of carbon and nitrogen stable isotope ratios of fish tissues following lipid extractions with non-polar and traditional chloroform/methanol solvent systems.
John M. Logan,Molly Lutcavage +1 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that chloroform/methanol is the most effective extraction for delta(13)C correction and mathematical correction approaches should be further explored as an alternative to lipid correction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Schooling and migration of large pelagic fishes relative to environmental cues
TL;DR: In this paper, a kinesis model driven by high-resolution sea surface temperature maps is used to simulate Atlantic bluefin tuna movements in the Gulf of Maine during summer months.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparative ecology of widely distributed pelagic fish species in the North Atlantic: Implications for modelling climate and fisheries impacts

MacKenzie,Paula Alvarez,Haritz Arrizabalaga,Martin Castonguay,Nicolas Goñi,François Grégoire,Hjálmar Hátún,Teunis Jansen,Jan Arge Jacobsen,Patrick Lehodey,Molly Lutcavage,Patrizio Mariani,G.D. Melvin,John D. Neilson,Leif Nøttestad,Gudmundur J. Oskarsson,Mark R. Payne,David E. Richardson,Inna Senina,Douglas C. Speirs +21 more
TL;DR: This paper reviews the current knowledge on the ecology of widely distributed pelagic fish stocks in the North Atlantic basin with emphasis on their role in the food web and the factors determining their relationship with the environment, and identifies knowledge gaps and modelling needs that the EURO-BASIN project attempts to address.
Human Impacts on Sea Turtle Survival
TL;DR: The translocation of nests into hatcheries is probably the most common sea turtle conservation technique undertaken when beach operations threaten sea turtles These efforts are usually practiced where serious threats to embryos or hatchlings are thought to exist.
Journal ArticleDOI
Discovery of a spawning ground reveals diverse migration strategies in Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus)
David E. Richardson,Katrin E. Marancik,Jeffrey Robert Guyon,Molly Lutcavage,Benjamin Galuardi,Benjamin Galuardi,Chi Hin Lam,Harvey J. Walsh,Sharon Wildes,Douglas A. Yates,Jonathan A. Hare +10 more
TL;DR: There is unequivocal evidence that Atlantic bluefin tuna spawn in the Slope Sea, counter to the current assumption that the Gulf of Mexico and Mediterranean Sea are the exclusive spawning grounds, and an alternate life history model is presented to inform the management of this species.
