Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Fishery resources are important part of marine resources, which are of great significance to the survival and development of human beings. Fishery resources provide a rich source of food for human beings and play an important role in maintaining ecological balance and protecting biodiversity. Therefore, it is of great significance to study fishery resources.

The purpose of this Special Issue is to collect manuscripts on the analysis and research of fishery resources, including but not limited to the following aspects: (1) stock assessment using different methods, including acoustic assessment, model assessment, stock assessment based on big data, and stock assessment with data loss; (2) research on the relationship between fishery resources and ecological environment and the related fishery resources protection measures; (3) research on the economic value of fishery resources and fishery policies; (4) interdisciplinary research in multiple fields such as biology, ecology, and environmental science focusing on fishery resources; and (5) research on the safety of fishery resources and the quality and safety of fishery products.

The Yellow River Estuary and its adjacent waters serve as crucial spawning, foraging, and nursery areas for marine organisms, possessing abundant biological resources. Monitoring fish communities provides a baseline for implementing the sustainable utilization of marine resources. In this study, data were collected from 15 spring surface and bottom sites and 17 summer surface sites using eDNA and trawl surveys. The results showed that 37, 40, and 35 fish species were detected using eDNA in the spring (surface and bottom) and summer (surface), respectively, with 38 fish species caught during summer trawling. The dominant species mainly belonged to Engraulidae of Clupeiformes in the spring and Gobiidae of Perciformes in the summer, characterized by smaller-sized, short-lived, and pelagic fish species. The summer surface communities exhibited higher diversity than the spring surface and bottom communities. NMDS analysis revealed a degree of seasonal differences in fish communities and that there may be a lack of vertical stratification in the spring communities. The pH and DO were identified as the key environmental factors affecting the fish community. Additionally, the combination of eDNA and trawl surveys was regarded as a superior survey method. Our study provides valuable information for understanding seasonal fish communities in the Yellow River Estuary and its adjacent waters, contributing to fishery resource management and conservation in the region.
