Effects of early life history traits and warming on Arctic cod prewinter length and recruitment
The Arctic cod (Boreogadus saida) is a key species in Arctic marine ecosystems, adapted to extreme seasonality and cold environments. The overwintering survival and recruitment of age-0 Arctic cod heavily depend on achieving a sizable prewinter length (PWL) in their first year. Over the growth period, PWL is influenced by early life history traits, such as hatch date and size-at-hatch, and by environmental conditions, such as temperature and food…
Lobster reserves as a management tool in coastal waters
The positive effects of reduced fishing pressure in marine protected areas (MPAs) are now well documented globally. Yet, evidence of MPA benefits from long-term replicated before-after control-impact (BACI) studies and their usefulness in protecting target species are still rare, especially in northern temperate areas. Scientific rigor in the monitoring of MPAs is considered important for obtaining trust and compliance and can increase interest a…
The interactive effects of temperature and food consumption on growth of larval Arctic cod ( Boreogadus saida )
Understanding larval growth, mediated by the interaction of early life traits and environmental conditions, is crucial to elucidate population dynamics. We used a bioenergetic model as an integrative tool to simulate the growth of Arctic cod (Boreogadus saida) larvae and to test the sensitivity of modeled growth to temperature and food quantity and quality. The growth was computed as the energy gained through food consumption minus the energy los…

The Ecology of Atlantic Cod ( Gadus morhua ) in Canadian Arctic Lakes
The range of limnological conditions that support Atlantic cod populations in meromictic Arctic lakes is known to be relatively restricted. The degree to which differences in these features, particularly in the availability of allochthonous and autochthonous prey, affect the condition and growth of cod in these populations is unknown. We compared measures of condition among three Atlantic cod populations on Baffin Island, Nunavut, to assess their…
Rebuilding Global Fisheries
Fighting for Fisheries In the debate concerning the future of the world's fisheries, some have forecasted complete collapse but others have challenged this view. The protagonists in this debate have now joined forces to present a thorough quantitative review of current trends in world fisheries. Worm et al. (p. 578 ) evaluate the evidence for a global rebuilding of marine capture fisheries and their supporting ecosystems. Contrasting regions that…
