Long Range Dependence and the dynamics of Exploited fish populations

Population dynamic of Long-spined tripodfish (Pseudotriacanthus strigilifer( Cantor, 1849 in the Persian Gulf (Hormozgan Province)

In the present study, we investigated biological characteristics and population dynamics of long-spined tripodfish, Pseudotriacanthus strigilifer, in coastal waters of Hormozgan province. A total of 391 fish samples were collected from September 2014 until September 2015 by the set net of Moshta. Length frequency data were analyzed using FiSAT software and ELEFAN 1 method. The longest and the s...

Density dependence and population regulation in marine fish: a large-scale, long-term field manipulation

Do small-scale experiments showing spatial density dependence in marine fishes scale-up to temporal density dependence and regulation of relatively large local populations? If so, what are the causative mechanisms and their implications? We conducted an eight-year multigeneration study of population dynamics of bicolor damselfish (Stegastes partitus) inhabiting four large coral reefs in the Bah...

Investigation of a parasitic outbreak of Lernaea cyprinacea Linnaeus (Crustacea: Copepoda) in Cyprinid fish from Choghakhor lagoon

The main objectives of this study were to study the parasitic infestation of Lernaea cyprinacea in 4 cyprinids from the Choghakhor Lagoon, Chaharmahal - Bakhtyari Province, west of Iran. A total of 180 cyprinids including Cyprinus carpio (n=101), Carassius auratus (n=47), Capoeta aculeata (n=10) and Alburnus alburnus (n=22) caught, and were studied for Lernaea cyprinacea infestation. Prevalence...

Pattern of recruitment variability in the geographical range of the exploited northeast Atlantic fish species

It has long been argued that populations living on the edges of the species geographical range should exhibit stronger environmentally imposed variations in abundances than populations living near the centre of this range. This so-called ‘Species Range Hypothesis’ is tested here for the recruitment of 62 marine fish populations of the northeast Atlantic, belonging to 17 species. The pattern of ...
