Ecological best practice in decommissioning: a review of scientific research.
(2018)
The Oslo and Paris Commissions (OSPAR) decision 98/3 prohibits the dumping of man-made structures (MMS) offshore. However, there are regions of the world where MMS are recognized as providing an ecological and societal ...
Developing best practice for using Marxan to locate Marine Protected Areas in European waters.
(2009)
Several recent studies have investigated the use of the conservation planning software Marxan to design Marine Protected Area (MPA) networks in UK waters. The systematic conservation planning approach embodied by Marxan ...
Marine and coastal ecosystem-based risk management handbook.
(International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), Copenhagen, Denmark, 2013)
Management of any environmental issue requires the application of management measures designed to eliminate, control, mitigate, or compensate for pressures related to the drivers of human activities to avoid potential ...

Handbook of geo-statistics in R for fisheries and marine ecology.
(International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), Copenhagen, Denmark, 2017)
Fisheries surveys to estimate the abundance of populations have become a pillar in
providing fishery-independent data to determine the status of fish stocks and monitor
ecosystems. Since the early 1990s, ...
Review of analytical methods for determining metabolites of polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs) in fish bile.
(International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), Copenhagen, Denmark, 2005)
In fish, metabolites of polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs) in gall bladder bile can be used as biomarkers for recent environmental exposure to PACs. These metabolites in the bile result from hepatic biotransformation ...
Biological effects of contaminants: measurement of lysosomal membrane stability.
(International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), Copenhagen, Denmark, 2004)
Lysosomes are ubiquitous cellular organelles that provide a waste disposal and macromolecular
recycling system (autophagy) and also a membrane-bound compartment for intracellular
digestion of food ingested by the cells. ...
Pitfalls and guidelines for “recycling” models for ecosystem-based fisheries management: evaluating model suitability for forage fish fisheries.
(2014)
Ecosystem models have been developed for many marine systems to provide guidance on fisheries management strategies that protect key ecological functions. These models are commonly “recycled”, i.e. applied to new questions ...
Guidelines for the study of the epibenthos of subtidal environments.
(International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), Copenhagen, Denmark, 2009)
These Guidelines for the Study of the Epibenthos of Subtidal Environments document a range of sampling gears and procedures for epibenthos studies that meet a variety of needs. The importance of adopting consistent sampling ...
Recruitment studies: manual on precision and accuracy of tools.
(International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), Copenhagen, Denmark, 2004)
This manual is one of the results of the project Precision and Accuracy of Tools in Recruitment
Studies (PARS), financed by the EU (FAIR-CT96–1371). The project PARS is concerned with
improving the methodologies used in ...
