• Modeling environmental effects on the size-structured energy flow through marine ecosystems. Part 1: The model (2007, methodology): “…unit of time (m3 s 1) which is supposed to be an allometric function of predator weight (it is assumed that the volume of water explored by a predator is proportional to its swimming speed which is proportional to its body size – Froese and Pauly, 2000 – hence v is taken equal to 0.33 cf. Table 1).”
• Quality control for modern bone collagen stable carbon and nitrogen isotope measurements (2020, methodology): “Because fish collagens are adapted to environmental conditions (Eastoe, 1957; Gustavson, 1955), we further grouped fish based on habitat preferences using classifications provided on FishBase (Froese & Pauly, 2000) as follows: warm water (tropical, subtropical) and cold water (temperate, polar, bore”
• DNA barcoding as a tool for coral reef conservation (2007, methodology): “As of now, FishBase lists 4,263 species as reef-associated.”
• Complexity is costly: a meta‐analysis of parametric and non‐parametric methods for short‐term population forecasting (2014, methodology): “For the database of adult 182   salmon counts, we assembled mean length of spawning adults and trophic level for each 183   species from FishBase (Froese & Pauly 2000).”
• Assessing sources of uncertainty in length-based estimates of body growth in populations of fishes and macroinvertebrates with bootstrapped ELEFAN (2018, background): “The biologically and historically possible length spectrum may be looked up from online databases, such as FishBase (Froese and Pauly, 2000), prior to field sampling, as an aid in advising these efforts.”
• Historical biogeography of South American freshwater fishes (2006, background): “The Fishbase (Froese & Pauly, 2000) and Neodat (http://neodat.org/) data bases provided complementary information.”
• Keep it simple: three indicators to deal with overfishing (2004, background): “Thus, preliminary estimates for the respective parameters can be taken from studies compiled in FishBase (Froese and Pauly 2000; http:// www.fishbase.org) or empirical equations in Froese and Binohlan (2000).”
• Diet composition of carnivorous fishes from coral reef lagoons of New Caledonia (2005, unknown): “5- Detailed diet information is useful to tropho-dynamic models (Cury et al. 2002; Pauly et al. 2002), to estimate trophic levels (Froese and Pauly 2000; Stergiou and Karpouzi 2002) which may enter in the composition of ecosystem indicators (Pauly et al. 1998 2001; Pinnegar et al. 2002; Laurans et…”
