Documenting loss of large trophy fish from the Florida Keys with historical photographs.

Loren McClenachan
- 01 Jun 2009 - 
TL;DR: Historical photographs provide visual and quantitative evidence of changes in mean individual size and species composition for groups of marine fish that have been targeted by sport fishing and lend support to current observations that unfished reef communities are able to support large numbers of large-bodied fish.

Dynamics and organization of a rocky intertidal fish assemblage: the persistence and resilience of taxocene structure

Gary D. Grossman
- 01 May 1982 - 
TL;DR: The test of taxocene persistence and resilience showed that this assemblage was both persistent and resilient over the course of the study, despite repeated defaunation, demonstrating that the relationship of environment to community organization is complex and dependent upon the evolutionary and ecological characteristics of the taxa examined.
Journal ArticleDOI

The relative role of density‐dependent and density‐independent survival in the life cycle of Atlantic salmon Salmo salar

Nina Jonsson, +2 more
- 01 Sep 1998 - 
TL;DR: Density-dependent factors appeared important for the survival of juvenile Atlantic salmon in the River Imsa whilst density-independent factors were more important forThe older fish at sea.
Journal ArticleDOI

Maternal and environmental gradients in the egg size of an iteroparous fish

T. A. Johnston, +1 more
- 01 Jul 2002 - 
TL;DR: The results suggest that egg size in fishes may be influenced by multiple environmental factors across populations, as well as by maternal effects within populations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Variation in fish condition between Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) stocks, the effect on their productivity and management implications

Hans-Joachim Rätz, +1 more
- 01 Feb 2003 - 
TL;DR: The positive effect of the cod condition on their reproductive potential generally implies that the stocks in good condition in the temperate regions of the northeast and west Atlantic can sustain higher exploitation rates than stocks in poor condition in one of the colder regimes of the northwest Atlantic.
