Abstract Stocks of Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) in the Baltic Sea, Kattegat and Skagerrak (N.
Europe) have been strongly exploited for decades bringing them into an enduringly …

Marine protected areas (MPAs) are increasingly implemented as tools to conserve and
manage fisheries and target species. Because there are opportunity costs to conservation …

The application of data storage tags bears the potential for a quantum leap in the research
on fish migrations, because not only first‐capture and recapture positions are known, but at …

The migrations of cod (> 37 cm) in the Skagerrak and Kattegat were investigated in an
archival tagging programme conducted between 2003 and 2006. Cod tagged at different …

The absence of functional top predators has been proposed as a mechanism acting to
shape fish assemblages in temperate marine ecosystems, with cascading effects on lower …

We explored the temporal and spatial evolution of cod abundance along the Swedish west
coast during the past 20–40 years. Analyses of cpue data from the Swedish Nephrops …

The Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) is economically one of the world's most important marine
species––a species presently suffering from heavy overexploitation throughout its range of …

We estimated the spatial scale of genetically distinguishable populations of coastal Atlantic
cod Gadus morhua using microsatellite DNA markers. Significant overall heterogeneity in …

Background In marine fish species, where pelagic egg and larvae drift with ocean currents,
population structure has been suggested to be maintained by larval retention due to …

We compared eelgrass Zostera marina communities in 3 regions in Sweden believed to be
affected by eutrophication and overfishing, to determine whether bottom-up or top-down …
