Potential consequences of discard reform for seabird communities (2013, unknown): “Strong regional and species-specific variation in the stocks of shoaling pelagic fish (Palomera et al. 2007)”
Diet of Engraulis encrasicolus in the northern Adriatic Sea (Mediterranean): ontogenetic changes and feeding selectivity (2009, background): “…limited to studies carried out on adults (Black Sea, Bulgakova 1996; Azov Sea, Budnichenko et al. 1999; Catalan Sea, Tudela & Palomera 1995, 1997, Palomera et al. 2007; Bay of Biscay, Plounevez & Champalbert 1999; Gulf of Lions, Plounevez & Champalbert 2000), although assessments of the diets of…”
Life cycle ecophysiology of small pelagic fish and climate-driven changes in populations (2013, background): “Within European waters, maximum spawning activity in sprat, sardine and anchovy have been reported to occur at 6–12, 12–16, and 14–19 C, respectively (de Silva, 1973; Ré, 1990; Sola et al., 1990; Motos et al., 1996; Palomera et al., 2007).”
Anchovy population expansion in the North Sea (2012, background): “At these temperatures, larvae would re - quire 40 to 50 d to metamorphose (4 to 5 cm) and 60 to 80 d to reach a size of 7 to 8 cm (Pecquerie et al. 2009, Aldanondo et al. 2010).”
Rapid changes in growth, condition, size and age of small pelagic fish in the Mediterranean (2014, unknown): “The dominant species, i.e. sardine (Sardina pilchardus) and anchovy (Engraulis encrasicolus), declined in biomass 37 while sprat (Sprattus sprattus) which has been rare for the last two decades increased tremendously in most recent years 38 (Fig 1., Palomera et al. 2007; GFCM 2011).”
Small pelagic fish dynamics: A review of mechanisms in the Gulf of Lions (2018, methodology): “Following up on this analysis and suggestions in a previous review (Palomera et al., 2007), we compared pre- and post- 2008 diets for fish of similar size.”
Ecological role, fishing impact, and management options for the recovery of a Mediterranean endemic skate by means of food web models (2013, background): “(2006) and (b) Power et al. (1996). Radii of circles are proportional to the biomass of each functional group.”
Small pelagic fish in the new millennium: A bottom-up view of global research effort (2020, background): “Shifts in seasonal spawning triggers have also occurred (Tsikliras et al., 2010; Palomera et al., 2007).”
A comparison of anchovy (Engraulis encrasicolus) and sardine (Sardina pilchardus) larvae feeding in the Northwest Mediterranean: influence of prey availability and ontogeny (2010, background): “In anchovy, this value was similar to that previously reported in the Northwest Mediterranean (Tudela et al., 2002).”
Seasonal changes in the diet of a critically endangered seabird and the importance of trawling discards (2009, background): “…Iberian continental shelf (Louzao et al. 2006a), a highly productive and spawning area for small pelagic Wsh such as anchovies (Engraulis encrasicolus) and pilchards (Sardina pilchardus) and where important Wshing Xeets operate (Abad et al. 1998; Agostini and Bakun 2002; Palomera et al. 2007).”
