Different applications of inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) have the potential to influence results of otolith geochemical assays. Laser ablation and solution-based ICP-MS were compared on paired otoliths from three species of juvenile fish representative of estuarine (red drum [ Sciaenops ocellatus ]), coastal/reef (gray parrotfish [ Sparisoma axillare ]), and pelagic (blackfin tuna [ Thunnus atlanticus ])...
Aim After environmental disasters, species with large population losses may need urgent protection to prevent extinction and support recovery. Following the 2019–2020 Australian megafires, we estimated population losses and recovery in fire‐affected fauna, to inform conservation status assessments and management. Location Temperate and subtropical Australia. Time period 2019–2030 and beyond. Major taxa Australian terrestrial a...
Growth models estimate life history parameters (e.g., growth rates and asymptotic size) that are used in the management of fisheries stocks. Traditionally in fisheries science, it was common to fit one growth model—the von Bertalanffy growth model—to size-at-age data. However, in recent years, fisheries science has seen an increase in the number of growth models available and the evaluation of multiple growth models for a give...
Motivation The BioTIME database contains raw data on species identities and abundances in ecological assemblages through time. These data enable users to calculate temporal trends in biodiversity within and amongst assemblages using a broad range of metrics. BioTIME is being developed as a community‐led open‐source database of biodiversity time series. Our goal is to accelerate and facilitate quantitative analysis of temporal...
