Adaptive mass formations in fish shoals founded in conflicting motivation

Johnsen, Espen; Skaret, Georg (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2008-04-21)

The organising principles behind adaptive collective formations in animals are not well understood. Here we document that persistent vertical hourglass formations occur during the critical spawning period in huge shoals ...

Demersal fish, shrimp and cephalopod assemblages on the continental shelves and slopes off Angola, Namibia and the southern and western coasts of South Africa have been monitored in terms of fisheries-independent trawl ...

A new model for simulating growth in fish

Hamre, Johannes; Johnsen, Espen; Hamre, Kristin (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014-01-16)

A real dynamic population model calculates change in population sizes indepen- dent of time. The Beverton & Holt (B&H) model commonly used in fish assessment includes the von Bertalanffy growth function which has age or ...

Diurnal variation models of bottom trawl survey catches parameterised by using commercial CPUE data

Johnsen, Espen (ICES CM Documents;2004/R:41, Working paper, 2004)

Introduction: Diurnal variation is observed in almost all marine surveys and can cause biased abundance and length frequency estimates. Symmetric logistic models developed by Hjellvik et al. (2001) were utilized to ...
