Aerial photogrammetry and tag-derived tissue density reveal patterns of lipid-store body condition of humpback whales on their feeding grounds
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Monitoring the body condition of free-ranging marine mammals at different life-history stages is essential to understand their ecology as they must accumulate sufficient energy reserves for survival and reproduction. ... -
Differential reproductive plasticity under thermal variability in a freshwater fish (Danio rerio)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Human-driven increases in global mean temperatures are associated with concomitant increases in thermal variability. Yet, few studies have explored the impacts of thermal variability on fitness-related traits, limiting our ... -
Direct evidence of increased natural mortality of a wild fish caused by parasite spillback from domestic conspecifics
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Parasite spillback from domestic animals can distort the balance between host and parasites in surrounding wildlife, with potential detrimental effects on wild populations. In aquatic environments, parasite spillback from ... -
Ecological network analysis of traits reveals variable response capacity to stress
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Response diversity increases the potential ‘options’ for ecological communities to respond to stress (i.e. response capacity). An indicator of community response diversity is the diversity of different traits associated ... -
Fishing pressure impacts the abundance gradient of European lobsters across the borders of a newly established marine protected area
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Marine protected areas (MPAs) are considered viable fisheries management tools due to their potential benefits of adult spillover and recruitment subsidy to nearby fisheries. However, before–after control–impact studies ... -
Increased functional diversity warns of ecological transition in the Arctic
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)As temperatures rise, motile species start to redistribute to more suitable areas, potentially affecting the persistence of several resident species and altering biodiversity and ecosystem functions. In the Barents Sea, a ... -
Multiple-batch spawning: a risk-spreading strategy disarmed by highly intensive size-selective fishing rate
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Can the advantage of risk-managing life-history strategies become a disadvantage under human-induced evolution? Organisms have adapted to the variability and uncertainty of environmental conditions with a vast diversity ... -
Possible adverse impact of contaminants on Atlantic cod population dynamics in coastal ecosystems
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)While many in-laboratory ecotoxicological studies have shown the adverse impact of pollutants to the fitness of an individual, direct evidence from the field on the population dynamics of wildlife animals has been lacking. ... -
Protected fish spawning aggregations as self-replenishing reservoirs for regional recovery
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Dispersal of eggs and larvae from spawning sites is critical to the population dynamics and conservation of marine fishes. For overfished species like critically endangered Nassau grouper (Epinephelus striatus), recovery ... -
Protection from fishing improves body growth of an exploited species
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Hunting and fishing are often size-selective, which favours slow body growth. In addition, fast growth rate has been shown to be positively correlated with behavioural traits that increase encounter rates and catchability ... -

Size-selective harvesting affects the immunocompetence of guppies exposed to the parasite Gyrodactylus
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Harvesting is typically size-selective, targeting large individuals. This is expected to lead to reduced average body size and earlier maturation (i.e. faster life histories). Such changes can also affect traits seemingly ... -
The biogeography of community assembly: latitude and predation drive variation in community trait distribution in a guild of epifaunal crustaceans
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)While considerable evidence exists of biogeographic patterns in the intensity of species interactions, the influence of these patterns on variation in community structure is less clear. Studying how the distributions of ...
