      On 30th March 2022, all Russian participation in ICES was suspended. Although the announcement of the suspension stressed the role of ICES as a “multilateral science organization”, this suspension applied not only to research activities but also to the ICES work providing fisheries advice for the sustainable management of fish stocks and ecosystems. As a result of the suspension, it is not possible ...

      During several surveys covering the north-western and northern Svalbard waters, and the deeper Yermak Plateau north of Svalbard during the period 2012–2020, 291 standardized hauls with a demersal trawl were made. All fishes in the catches were identified to the lowest possible taxonomic level, mostly to species. In addition to the data generated from the trawl catches, bottom temperature, salinity, ...

      Marine fisheries are often allocated to stocks that reflect pragmatic considerations and may not represent the species’ spatial population structure, increasing the risk of mismanagement and unsustainable harvesting. Here we compile mark–recapture data collected across the North Atlantic to gain insight into the spatial population structure of Greenland halibut (Reinhardtius hippoglossoides), an ...
