The effectiveness of passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) for studying marine biodiversity highly relies on comprehensive libraries of species-specific sounds. While sound production is well-documented i...
The deep sea is increasingly recognized as vulnerable to anthropogenic pressures, including marine litter, yet large geographic gaps remain in our understanding of litter distribution and ecological i...
Earth observation satellites transform our understanding of Earth's biological, atmospheric, and surface systems. The Plankton, Aerosol, Cloud, ocean Ecosystem (PACE) mission, launched in 2024, repres...
The permanent closure of large marine areas is often regarded as an effective strategy for conserving marine biodiversity. However, implementing large permanent closures can be difficult in many small...
The Southwest Atlantic Ocean (SWAO) is a globally important region, where diverse water masses converge and mix, regulating the Earth's climate while supporting productive fisheries and high marine bi...
Mercury (Hg) is a toxic metal that biomagnifies through food webs, posing ecological and human health risks. The anchovy (Engraulis ringens), a key forage fish in the Humboldt Current System, sustains...
Incidental capture of sharks by fisheries is common, making it critical to assess species' physiological and behavioural stress responses and post-release survival. Previous studies have examined bloo...
Bottom trawl fisheries are recognized to be a global threat to marine biodiversity and a dominant driver of sea floor ecosystem change. Although the mechanism of trawling impact on benthic life is mor...
Achieving sustainable management of marine resources and implementing biologically realistic assessment depend on accurate identification of stock structure. Most harvested marine species are currentl...
Global fisheries are under increasing pressure from overfishing and climate change, threatening marine biodiversity and food security. Disentangling the impacts of these two drivers is essential for s...
This study documents the first recorded occurrence of six commercially important grouper fish species (Teleostei: Perciformes: Epinephelidae) from the Lakshadweep Islands, India. The species documente...
The protection of Vulnerable Marine Ecosystems (VMEs) is a priority for ecosystem-based fisheries management in the Mediterranean Sea. The bamboo coral Isidella elongata forms complex habitats that ar...
India's blue economy policy envisages the responsible use of ocean resources for economic growth and sustainability. The Indian National Centre for Ocean Information Services (INCOIS) contributes to t...
The Gulf of California sustains important fisheries, including those targeting spiny lobsters. Despite their economic importance, little is known about the interactions with their parasites, which pla...
Elasmobranchs (sharks and rays) are among the most threatened marine vertebrates worldwide, yet the consequences of their decline across multiple dimensions of biodiversity remain poorly understood. H...
