Which seafloor indicator to use? We demonstrate complementarity, sensitivity, and specificity of 18 indicators in response to the pressure of bottom trawling using a shared dataset across different parts of European Seas Photos and abstract here: doi.org/10.1002/bes2... @pdvd.bsky.social et al.

Journal fees for open access are becoming obscene. But what are we, scientists, paying for? I made a simple plot with journals in my research area(s). Clearly, we are paying for prestige: a shockingly clean correlation between the impact factor and journal fees

Our ICES WGFBIT meeting has completed for this year. Next we will be working on manuscript on a Europe-wide assessment of trawling impacts on broad-scale habitats. We even had a bit of time to take a few samples, and lots of sauna visits and icy walks. www.ices.dk/community/gr...

We’re just learning how a huge biomass of fish in the ocean’s twilight zone can help sequester carbon. It seems like a bad time for a new fishery. Written by Moira Donovan hakaimagazine.com/features/all...
