Ecological consequences of mechanical harvesting of clams
TL;DR: A field experiment was performed in 1.225 m plots in each of two shallow estuarine habitats, a seagrass bed and a sand flat, to test the impact of clam raking and two different intensities of mechanical harvesting of clams ("clam kicking") for up to 4 years on hard clam recruitment as discussed by the authors.

Dynamics of Growth and Maturation in the Cephalopod Illex argentinus de Castellanos, 1960 (Teuthoidea: Ommastrephidae)
Paul G. Rodhouse,E.M.C. Hatfield +1 more
TL;DR: Post-recruit Illex argentinus were collected from the fishery on the Patagonian Shelf between 1986 and 1988, and age was determined by analysis of daily growth increments in ground sections of the statolith, female fecundity was determined, specimens were dissected, weighed and assigned a maturity stage.

The influence of hatchery coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) on the productivity of wild coho salmon populations in Oregon coastal basins
TL;DR: Altered hatchery programs that could encourage recovery of wild populations include (i) avoiding release of large numbers of smolts in areas with high concentrations of wild fish, (ii) decreasing the number of s...

Toward a new paradigm for growth modeling in fisheries stock assessments: Embracing plasticity and its consequences
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors argue that the "constant growth" paradigm of fisheries stock assessments should be replaced with a paradigm that embraces growth plasticity and its consequences, and they conclude that fish growth is inherently plastic, often responding strongly to environmental conditions such as temperature and food availability.

Evaluating techniques for sampling stream crayfish (Paranephrops planifrons)
TL;DR: Electrofishing was effective in collecting koura from different habitats and resulted in the highest abundance estimates, and mark-recapture estimates appeared to be more precise than depletion estimates, especially if multiple recaptures were made.
