Furthermore, sculpins in Near North Lakes tended to have larger trophic niches (occupied greater area in δ13C– δ15N space), particularly in the food chain (δ15N) dimension, than other cohabiting forage fishes. In contrast, sculpins in Far North Lakes were commonly found in the nearshore ...

We found environmental factors were strongly associated with 4 measures of herbivorous fish community biomass (total, scraper, grazer, and browser), and failure to account for these influences on B-unfished resulted in different conclusions about herbivore depletion in Hawaii, USA. Overall, depletion...
Fisheries managers also often regulate the types of gear allowed in fisheries, commonly restricting the number and types of hooks and rods anglers can utilize, the use of motorized engines, or live bait (Meronek et al. 1995; Sauls and Ayala 2012). Anglers may also implement such measures ...
