Geohistorical insights into marine functional connectivity Open
Marine functional connectivity (MFC) refers to the flows of organic matter, genes, and energy that are caused by the active and passive movements of marine organisms. Occurring at various temporal and spatial scales, MFC is a dynamic, cons…

The fossil insect assemblage associated with the Toarcian (Lower Jurassic) oceanic anoxic event from Alderton Hill, Gloucestershire, UK Open
Extreme global warming and environmental changes associated with the Toarcian (Lower Jurassic) Oceanic Anoxic Event (T-OAE, ~ 183 Mya) profoundly impacted marine organisms and terrestrial plants. Despite the exceptionally elevated abundanc…

Marine functional connectivity through the ages: geological and historical perspectives Open
Marine Functional Connectivity (MFC) refers to all the unimpeded flows of matter, genes and energy that are caused by the movements of marine life that occur at various spatial and temporal scales. Climate, palaeogeography, ocean circulati…

Working Group on the History of Fish and Fisheries (WGHIST; outputs from 2023 meeting) Open
The ICES Working Group on History of Fish and Fisheries (WGHIST) explores how historical data (e.g., from prehistory to the last few decades) from a range of sources can help understand past human practices, how social-ecological systems h…

Marine bioturbation collapse during Early Jurassic deoxygenation: implications for post-extinction marine ecosystem functioning Open
Climate change is undermining the health and integrity of seafloor ecosystems, with declines in bioturbation expected to impact future ecosystem functioning. We explored changes in the nature and degree of bioturbation during Early Jurassi…

Microplastics in the Ria Formosa Lagoon: Ingestion by marine invertebrates with different feeding traits and from different habitats Open
Microplastics (MP), have now been found everywhere and are being linked to negative health effects in many marine animals. It is becoming clear that MP are ingested by many marine organisms in a range of different environments, but is it y…

A tale of two key species in a subtropical mudflat: four-fold density increases produce minimal ecological response in macrofauna Open
Context Understanding how ecosystems function to deliver services is essential if we are to limit the impacts off human activities. Aim We hypothesised that increased densities of whelk, Pyrazus ebeninus, and crab, Macrophthalmus setosus, …

Sidney Holt, a giant in the history of fisheries science who focused on the future: his legacy and challenges for present-day marine scientists Open
Sidney J. Holt (1926–2019) was more than a founding father of quantitative fisheries science, and the man who “helped save the great whales.” His accomplishments, over a career spanning seven decades, run deeper: he was a champion of reduc…

Something old, something new: Historical perspectives provide lessons for blue growth agendas Open
The concept of “blue growth,” which aims to promote the growth of ocean economies while holistically managing marine socioecological systems, is emerging within national and international marine policy. The concept is often promoted as bei…

Macrofaunal abundance retrieved from 24 subtropical mudflats along south-east Queensland, Australia Open
The datasets represent the observed abundance of macrofauna (retained on a 0.5mm mesh sieve) retrieved from 24 subtropical mudflats along the south-east coast of Australia in 25cm x 25cm box cores and 50cm x 50cm quadrats (to a sediment de…

Working Group on the History of Fish and Fisheries (WGHIST) Open
The ICES Working Group on the History of Fish and Fisheries (WGHIST) is a forum for interdis-ciplinary research on social-ecological change in marine and fisheries systems over multi-deca-dal to centennial timescales. WGHIST comprises a di…

Biological trait composition of macrofauna from mudflats along south-east Queensland, Australia Open
Species biological traits were analysed using biological traits analysis which captured their life habit, morphology and behaviour (see accompanying paper for methods; doi:/10.1071/MF19242). The biological traits of mudflat macrofauna asse…

Ecological functioning of mudflats: global analysis reveals both regional differences and widespread conservation of functioning Open
Mudflats—unvegetated, soft-sediment, intertidal habitats—support macrofaunal assemblages that contribute to a number of important ecosystem functions (e.g. food for fish and birds, nutrient and Ccycling). These habitats are widespread but …

Does ecological redundancy maintain functioning of marine benthos on centennial to millennial time scales? Open
Predicting the ability of the biosphere to continue to deliver ecosystem services in the face of biodiversity loss and environmental change is a major challenge. The results of short‐term and small‐scale experimental studies are both equiv…
