Flatfishes
Fascinating and instantly recognizable, flatfishes are unique in their asymmetric postlarval body form. With over 800 extant species recognized and a distribution stretching around the globe, these fishes are of considerable research interest and provide a major contribution to commercial and recreational fisheries worldwide. This second edition of Flatfishes: Biology and Exploitation has been completely revised, updated and enlarged to respond to the ever-growing body of research. It provides: • Overviews of systematics, distribution, life history strategies, reproduction, recruitment, ecology and behaviour • Descriptions of the major fisheries and their management • An assessment of ...
Fish atlas of the Celtic Sea, North Sea, and Baltic Sea
The atlas presents a unique set of abundance data to describe the spatial, depth, size, and temporal distribution of demersal and pelagic fish species over an extensive marine area, together with accounts of their biology. A large number of pictures, graphs and distribution maps illustrate the text. By largely avoiding - or at least explaining - scientific terms and providing extensive references, the book should be useful for both laymen and scientists. The quantitative information on some 200 fish taxa is derived from 72,000 stations fished by research vessels during the period 1977-2013. The area covers the northwest European shelf from west of Ireland to the central Baltic Sea and from Brittany to the Shetlands. Although the surveys extend beyond the shelf edge, only taxa reported at least once in waters less than 200 m are included. Typical deep-water species and typical fresh-water species are excluded. We hope this publication will contribute to gaining a better understanding of the ocean ecosystems.
The Effects of Noise on Aquatic Life II
The meeting of Aquatic Noise 2013 will introduce participants to the most recent research data, regulatory issues and thinking about effects of man-made noise and will foster critical cross-disciplinary discussion between the participants. Emphasis will be on the cross-fertilization of ideas and findings across species and noise sources. As with its predecessor, The Effects of Noise on Aquatic Life: 3rd International Conference will encourage discussion of the impact of underwater sound, its regulation and mitigation of its effects. With over 100 contributions from leading researchers, a wide range of sources of underwater sound will be considered.

Inter-Benchmark Protocol N North Sea Herring (IBPNSherring 2021)
A single-stock was included in this inter-benchmark: North Sea Autumn Spawning (NSAS) herring (her.27.3a47d). This inter-benchmark process was put forward because of: 1) newly available natural mortality values and 2) a discrepancy in the handling of natural mortality (M). For the NSAS assessment, natural mortality is provided every 3–4 years by WGSAM. This is often associated with a rescaling of the assessment. At WKPELA 2018, a profiling method was developed to handle the introduction of new natural mortalities and in turn, alleviate the potential rescaling of the assessment. The method consists of the testing of the fit of the assessment model for a range of additive rescaling (fixed ac...
