• Impact of 21st century climate change on the Baltic Sea fish community and fisheries (2007, background): “Similarly, interspecific competition with the large sprat stock has contributed to the reduced herring growth (Rönkkönen et al., 2004; Möllmann et al., 2005; Casini et al., 2006).”
• Effects of temperature and population density on von Bertalanffy growth parameters in Atlantic herring: a macro-ecological analysis (2010, background): “In the case of the clupeids, body condition is principally affected by prey abundance (Casini et al. 2006, Flinkman et al. 1998), and on the variations in competitor clupeid species (interspecies density dependent mechanism; Casini et al. 2006).”
• How cod shapes its world (2008, background): “These changes include direct effects of cod disappearance, such as increases in prey biomass, as well as indirect effects, such as decreased abundances of zooplankton (Carscadden et al., 2001; Casini et al., 2006) and decreased body condition of prey (Davoren and Montevecchi, 2003; Osterblom et al.”
• Spatial and temporal density dependence regulates the condition of central Baltic Sea clupeids: compelling evidence using an extensive international acoustic survey (2011, unknown): “It has been shown that sprat abundance correlates negatively to zooplankton summer biomass and clupeid stomach fullness in SD 28, this providing an ecological explanation of the negative relation between sprat abundance and clupeid condition in this area (Casini et al. 2006).”
• Fish, seabirds and trophic cascades in the Baltic Sea (2006, background): “During this period, zooplankton biomass decreased (Möllmann & Köster 2002), mostly due to sprat predation (Casini et al. 2006).”
• Linking fisheries, trophic interactions and climate: threshold dynamics drive herring Clupea harengus growth in the central Baltic Sea (2010, methodology): “…condition and sprat abundance, as well as salinity, in the 2 configurations and whole study period Casini et al.: Ecological threshold and fish population dynamics 2003, Casini et al. 2006), both factors acting on the abundance of one of the main preys for herring, the copepod Pseudocalanus spp.”
• Recruitment failure of coastal predatory fish in the Baltic Sea coincident with an offshore ecosystem regime shift (2010, methodology): “This means that an abundance of sprat translates into low zooplankton biomass and poorer body condition of sprat (Casini et al., 2006).”
