This equipment is commonly deployed at a wide range of water depths and greatly expands our capacity to remotely monitor aquatic ecosystems; however, equipment retrieval can be a major challenge. Here, we describe a technological solution to this challenge that uses a combination of live imaging sonar and a remotely operated vehicle to efficiently locate and recover equipment across a wide range of conditions (e.g., turbid water, range of water depths). We provide details on our specific equipment setup (total cost &lt; Can$15,000) used for the recovery of acoustic fish tracking receivers moored to the benthos of Stoney Lake, Ontario, Canada. There are some limitations to this approach, which are discussed. With technological advances and increases in affordability of commercially available products, this approach may be widely applicable to recover biologgers from depth.</p>","PeriodicalId":12389,"journal":{"name":"Fisheries","volume":"49 6","pages":"263-268"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-02-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/fsh.11074","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139988198","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

He is predeceased by Janet Boles Forney, his wife of 62 years, and son-in-law Kevin (Diane) Proctor. He is survived by his daughters Diane Forney and Arlyn (Ken) Shultis, son Jim (Nanci) Forney, two grandchildren, and one great grandchild.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Forney was born in Omaha, Nebraska and grew up in Norfolk, Nebraska and later Stanton, Nebraska with his parents John W. and Elizabeth (Latimer) Forney. After high school, Forney attended Iowa State University, during which he enlisted in the U.S. Army and was deployed to Inchon, Korea. After his deployment, he returned to Iowa State earning a BS in forestry in 1951 and, a year later, his MS in zoology with Ken Carlander. From there, he attended Cornell University, where he studied with Dwight Webster and earned his PhD in fisheries in 1957.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;While pursuing his PhD, Forney was recruited to initiate studies of the Oneida Lake fishery. Rather than simply collecting data on the important sport fish populations, Forney's crucial insight led to studies that examined the entire food web, starting with recruitment dynamics, fish early life history, and predator–prey dynamics. From there, studies were expanded to include nutrient inputs, primary and secondary production, and their impacts on fish production. Within the first two decades, Forney had built a program that anticipated much of the direction of research in fisheries ecology nationally and internationally over the following generations. As the field began to examine top–down and bottom–up controls of lake food webs and cascading trophic interactions, Forney brought on Ed Mills and together their Oneida Lake studies were at the forefront of understanding complex lake ecosystems. The rigor and thoroughness with which the long-term monitoring program was established laid the groundwork for continued research into emerging issues related to invasive species and climate change. The continuation of the program he started is the centerpiece of the Field Station's legacy and places Oneida Lake as one of the best understood lake ecosystems in the world.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Forney was formally appointed the first Director of the Cornell Biological Field Station (CBFS) in 1963 and led the station for 30 years until his retirement in 1992. His vision for the lakeshore property as a site for a program of education and research in freshwater ecology and fisheries biology, along with his dedication and energy, set the CBFS on its highly successful trajectory. Forney traveled frequently to campus to ensure that his program was integrated with the larger goals of the department and university. He trained numerous graduate students while studying Oneida Lake and many, like Ed Houde, Rich Noble, and Larry Nielsen,","PeriodicalId":12389,"journal":{"name":"Fisheries","volume":"49 5","pages":"237-238"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-02-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/fsh.11069","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139956346","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Reflections on Breaking Down Silos in Fisheries Science","authors":"U. Rashid Sumaila","doi":"10.1002/fsh.11076","DOIUrl":"10.1002/fsh.11076","url":null,"abstract":"&lt;p&gt;In 2023, I've been deeply honored to receive recognition for my modest contributions to advancing the cause of utilizing economics in the sustainable management of environmental resources, particularly for the benefit of future generations and our most vulnerable communities. The year commenced with the humbling acknowledgment of being named a corecipient of the prestigious 2023 Tyler Prize for Environmental Achievement (https://tylerprize.org), culminating with the esteemed accolade of receiving the Prince Albert 1 Grand Medal for Science (https://www.oceano.org/en/) and named one of 100 most influential Africans of 2023 (https://100.newafricanmagazine.com)!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;During the 2023 Tyler Prize Award Ceremony held in Los Angeles in April, Margaret Catley-Carlson, a member of the Tyler Prize Selection Committee, was tasked with elucidating the reasons behind my selection as a corecipient alongside my esteemed colleague and longtime collaborator, Daniel Pauly. Margaret's insightful remarks during the ceremony resonate profoundly, offering valuable insights that I believe hold significant merit for readers, particularly early career scholars navigating their professional trajectories. The potency of Margaret's comments inspired this contribution, and I extend my heartfelt gratitude to Margaret for her invaluable guidance and support—thank you immensely, Margaret!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This essay is structured around the five compelling reasons discussed by Margaret.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;One&lt;/b&gt;, both of these gentlemen [Pauly and Sumaila] come from Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, I also come from Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada so I wish to express the pride in very worthwhile citizens and to be quite proud about it so that's my first reason for feeling extremely happy about this.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Two&lt;/b&gt;, Rashid represents an essential approach the planet needs to solve most of our problems moving from a silo to the larger place. I've been making speeches on a great number of issues on water, on food production, all sorts of questions, and one of the major obstacles is exactly this; and at the end of my slide deck I always have a picture of silos, and I talk about the need, the joy of what the 20th century brought us, which was improved science in a lot of silos. But what it didn't do was learn how to start opening those silos, and moving knowledge and moving the faith and the concern from one to the other. And he [Rashid] is the epitome of the recognition about the importance of breaking through the silos. Whoever thought that an economist would become a bio-environmentalist; somebody who can become a biologist and a fishery expert at the same time is really quite extraordinary, so this is a very important part and this needs to spread contagiously across the world of scientists to move out of “The Silo” approach into the approach that joins up the knowledge that we have.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Three&lt;/b&gt;, Rashid has created and disseminated data, information and insights based on the sc","PeriodicalId":12389,"journal":{"name":"Fisheries","volume":"49 5","pages":"207-210"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-02-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/fsh.11076","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139955769","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"The Tyler Prize and the Knowledge Infrastructure","authors":"Daniel Pauly","doi":"10.1002/fsh.11075","DOIUrl":"10.1002/fsh.11075","url":null,"abstract":"&lt;p&gt;Rashid Sumaila, my friend and colleague, and I shared the 2023 Tyler Prize (https://tylerprize.org/; see also Sumaila &lt;span&gt;2024&lt;/span&gt;, this issue). Although we worked together on many issues, we have received separate laudations. Mine mentioned that I contributed to creating a global “knowledge infrastructure,” besides publishing on various items, such as “shifting baselines.”&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I will discuss this knowledge infrastructure here, because, despite its weird name, it concerns the readers of this journal, who I presume are predominantly fisheries biologists and managers, many of whom are working on inland fisheries in North America.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I called for a database of key traits of critical marine fishes in tropical waters in in the late 1980s, in a mercifully ignored strategic plan of the Manila-based International Centre for Living Aquatic Resources Management (now WorldFish, based in Malaysia), where I had ascended to become one of its four “Program Directors.” At the time, it was very difficult for people working in the tropics to acquire the information on the growth, natural mortality, and other traits of fishes required to manage fisheries based on the stock assessment models then in vogue. Hence, my suggestion was to extract information on key traits of about 200 commercial fish species from scientific papers and books and distribute this information to about 500 fisheries managers via 3.5-in diskettes (remember?) mailed to fisheries departments worldwide.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I arranged for a consultant from Germany to be hired to execute the project. This consultant was the then freshly minted Dr. Rainer Froese, who upon his arrival in Manila, immediately suggested that we should not cover just 200 fish species but 100 times more, i.e., all the 20,000 fish species then thought to have been described in the scientific literature.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Rainer and I set to work, designed the database around data that we knew existed, got grants to hire people to encode the available data (many colleagues design beautiful databases, then forget the encoding) and FishBase started in 1990…. Fast forward to the present: FishBase (www.fishbase.org) now covers more than 35,000 fish species, divided about 50/50 between the marine and freshwaters of the world. FishBase is also used by millions of people in all the world's countries (Humphries et al. &lt;span&gt;2023&lt;/span&gt;). It is indeed part of the world's knowledge infrastructure.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The United States is the country with most FishBase users, but has also many fisheries scientists, and ichthyologists, we have produced an immense amount of scientific literature of U.S. fishes. Relative to the scientific knowledge that has been generated in the last 200 years, FishBase coverage of U.S. water is not as good as it is for the southern hemisphere, European countries, or even the other two North American countries, Canada, and Mexico (the tiny archipelago southeast of Newfoundland that France still possess is well represented in FishB","PeriodicalId":12389,"journal":{"name":"Fisheries","volume":"49 5","pages":"204-206"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-02-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/fsh.11075","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139955765","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
