Abstract

Cover image: A spearfisher chasing fish in shallow water in the Mediterranean Sea. New research advances our understanding of spearfisher-fish behavioral interactions by presenting a new model integrating three different ecological indicators (flight-initiation distance, post-flight responses, and efficiency of spearfishers) and providing simulations on fishing mortality and implications for management (pp. 2594–2604).
