“…2021; Marín et al. 2021), are well studied. This study focuses on a more unique circumstance in which the Atlantic surfclam fishery is impacted by coincident restriction of fishable bottom by (1) a temperature‐driven range shift that results in mixing of two commercial species in the offshore fishing grounds and (2) leasing of inshore fishing grounds for wind farms (Munroe et al.…”

Rising water temperatures along the northeastern U.S. continental shelf have resulted in an offshore range shift of the Atlantic surfclam Spisula solidissima to waters still occupied by ocean quahogs Arctica islandica. Fishers presently are prohibited from landing both Atlantic surfclams and ocean quahogs in the same catch, thus limiting fishing to locations where the target species can be sorted on deck. Wind energy development on and around the fishing grounds will further restrict the fishery. A spatially explicit model of the Atlantic surfclam fishery (Spatially Explicit Fishery

“…The effects of bottom trawling fisheries were likely underrepresented due to the lack of external evidence, compared with the interaction with pelagic longlines and set nets. Our study area overlaps with areas of intense fisheries activities and boat traffic [ 96 ] due to the proximity of two of the main ports in the region, Montevideo (Uruguay) and Buenos Aires (Argentina). In this region, the Uruguayan and Argentinian fishing fleets carry out their activities throughout the year, yet the intensity increases during the austral Summer and Fall [ 43 , 97 ].…”

“…These vessels use shipping lanes and anchorage areas that occupy ca. 1500 km, which the leatherbacks also inhabit [ 96 ]. Finally, the Rio de la Plata estuary and adjacent waters contain high amounts of plastic debris that accumulate along front lines, such as the turbidity front [ 100 ], which also serves to aggregate gelatinous zooplankton [ 101 ].…”

Leatherback turtles migrate long distances between nesting beaches and distant foraging areas worldwide. This study analyzes the genetic diversity, life history stage, spatiotemporal distribution, and associated threats of a foraging aggregation in the Southwest Atlantic Ocean. A total of 242 leatherbacks stranded or bycaught by artisanal fisheries were recorded from 1997 to 2021 in Uruguay, with sizes ranging from 110.0 to 170.0 cm carapace lengths, indicating that the aggregation is composed of large juveniles and adults. Results of Bayesian mixed-stock analysis show that leatherbacks come primarily from the West African rookeries, based on mitochondrial DNA sequences obtained from 59 of the turtles representing seven haplotypes, including a novel one (Dc1.7). The main threat identified in the area is the fisheries bycatch but most of the carcasses observed were badly decomposed. There was significant seasonal and interannual variability in strandings that is likely associated with the availability of prey and the intensity of the fishing effort. Taken together, these findings reinforce the importance of these South American foraging areas for leatherbacks and the need to determine regional habitat use and migratory routes across the broader Atlantic region, in order to develop effective conservation measures to mitigate threats both at nesting beaches and foraging areas.
