  • Neglected impacts and modeling uncertainties of seismic surveys on fish and fisheries: Knowledge gaps and research needs
    José Amorim Reis-Filho, Acácio Ribeiro Gomes Tomás, Domingos Garrone Neto, Eurico Noleto-Filho
    Marine Environmental Research, 2026
    Offshore oil and gas exploration has long driven global economic growth, and marine seismic surveys (MSS) constitute the initial phase of these operations. Although much of the impact literature focuses on marine mammals and, to a lesser extent, sea turtles and birds, empirical understanding of how MSS may affect fish and fisheries remains limited, particularly in the South Atlantic, where large-scale assessments are virtually absent. Here, we address this gap using a two-decade spatiotemporal dataset encompassing approximately 800,000 km 2 of MSS along the Brazilian coast. We integrated seismic effort metrics with fishery catch data from the Sea Around Us database to derive a Seismic Sensitivity Index (SSI) representing the relative sensitivity of key exploited groups, including tunas, billfishes, sharks, and rays, across all Brazilian sedimentary basins. We implemented multiple SSI frameworks combining seismic pressure indicators (e.g., Sound Exposure Level, licensed survey area, ramp-up zones), catches-weighted fishery importance, environmental stochasticity, and estimates of fish–seismic overlap probability. These complementary approaches revealed marked spatial contrasts in relative sensitivity and potential exposure. Southern basins, where seismic activity has been most frequent and intense, consistently showed higher SSI values for tunas and billfishes, whereas sharks and rays exhibited elevated SSI values in northern basins. Given the scarcity of comprehensive empirical studies in the South Atlantic and the extensive footprint of seismic operations across Brazil’s continental shelf, our results provide the first large-scale, data-driven screening of potential sensitivity to MSS among ecologically and economically important fish groups. This framework offers a foundation for prioritizing future empirical research, guiding risk assessments, and informing the spatial management of seismic activities.

    The commercial importance of cephalopods has increased considerably, being an important fishing resource. However, during the preparation for commercialization of those species, they suffer the process known as "finning" which includes removing and separating the head, arm, skin or even having the body structure cut into rings, which ends up making it difficult or often prevents the identification of the species, which can lead to replacements. In this sense, the present study aimed to use the large ribosomal region, rrnL (16S rDNA) to genetically identify cephalopod species sold in markets and fairs in Latin America. Whole and processed samples were collected from supermarkets and directly from local fishers the approximate collection location. Each generated sequence was submitted to the blastn portal for molecular comparison and included in the database for subsequent genetic identification. Our results indicate labeling errors in samples from the State of Pará that contained the species Dosidicus gigas found only in the Pacific Ocean and were generically labeled as "National Lula". No type of substitution was found among the samples that were being sold at fairs and markets, only labeling errors. Thus, our results demonstrate the effectiveness of the rrnL for identifying species and evaluating labeling errors.
  • Otolith shape can be used as a tool to infer population connectivity among individuals of Larimus breviceps at Southwestern Atlantic
    Barbara Maichak de Carvalho, Yasmin Barbieri, Beatriz Andrade Syrio, Kátia Meirelles Felizola Freire, Acácio Ribeiro Gomes Tomás
    Journal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 2024
    Otoliths are an excellent tool for analysing the pattern of habitat use between adults and juveniles and connectivity between fish populations. Larimus breviceps is a species belonging to the family Sciaenidae, which has an important role in the marine food chain, as it is one of the most abundant and frequent species in the bycatch of coastal shrimp fisheries in Brazil. The present study aimed at comparing the otolith shape of specimens collected in three different Brazilian coastal areas: Sergipe (SE), northeastern region; São Paulo (SP), southeastern region; and Paraná (PR), southern region. In a laboratory, 88 otoliths were extracted, photographed, and the contour was analysed by the wavelet method (32 from SE, 28 from SP, and 28 from PR). The otolith contours varied between sampling sites. Linear discriminant analysis correctly reclassified 60.23% otoliths by the sampled sites, with the best reclassifications occurring in SE (62.5%), followed by PR (60.71%) and SP (57.14%). Multivariate analysis of variance also evidenced significant differences in contours among the sampling sites (F = 2.3; P < 0.005). Thus, two morphotypes of otoliths were found for L. breviceps: one from Sergipe (northeastern Brazil) and the second one from southeastern–southern Brazil, indicating connectivity between the populations off São Paulo and Paraná, to be confirmed by future genetic studies.
  • Inferring ecological connectivity between populations of Opsanus beta (Goode & Bean, 1880) from the southern Gulf of Mexico and the South-western Atlantic coast
    Barbara Maichak de Carvalho, José Antônio Martínez Pérez, Alfonso Aguilar-Perera, Virginia Noh Quiñones, Acácio Ribeiro Gomes Tomás, Jean Vitule, Alejandra Volpedo
    Journal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 2022
    Otoliths are an excellent tool in studies on ecological connectivity of fish species populations. Opsanus beta is an invasive species introduced on the Brazilian coast, but not native from the Gulf of Mexico. The present study aimed to compare the otolith contours of specimens collected in Mexico (Celestún, CEL) and in two Brazilian estuaries (Santos Bay, STB, and Paranaguá Estuarine Complex, PEC). In the laboratory, 99 otoliths were extracted, photographed and compared using wavelet analysis. The otolith contours varied between sites (39 from CEL, 26 from STB and 34 from PEC). The linear discriminant analysis correctly reclassified 87.9% of otoliths by sites, with the best reclassifications in the CEL (97.36%), followed by PEC (88.23%) and SBT (73.07%). MANOVA showed significant differences in otolith contours between sites (F = 5.37; P < 0.005). The otolith contour from CEL was significantly different from those from the PEC and SBT. However, the otolith contour of the two Brazilian estuaries did not significantly differ among them (MANOVA, P > 0.005). Our results indicate O. beta populations on the Brazilian coast are connected, and probably isolated from the Mexican population.

  • Citizen science as a tool for understanding the silent dispersion of toadfish Opsanus beta (Goode and Bean, 1880)
    Barbara Maichak de Carvalho, Matheus O. Freitas, Acácio R. G. Tomás, Rodrigo Caires, Patricia Charvet, Jean Vitule
    Journal of Fish Biology, 2022
    Citizen science is an excellent tool in studies of the spatial distribution of non-native species. In Brazil, Opsanus beta has recently been introduced. Studies indicate the occurrence of this species in five estuaries off the Brazilian coast (Guanabara Bay, Sepetiba Bay, Santos Bay, Paranaguá Estuarine Complex and Guaratuba Bay). The present study aims to understand the dispersion of this species on the Brazilian coast through citizen science. Between January and May 2021, information about O. beta was weekly posted in 32 recreational fishing Facebook groups. Sixty-five fishers reported catches of O. beta in estuaries (Guanabara Bay, Sepetiba Bay, Santos Bay and Paranaguá Estuarine Complex). In addition, there were reports from other shallow areas outside adjacent estuaries (Bertioga and Peruíbe, in Sao Paulo State) and the first occurrence record for Laguna (Santa Catarina State), a southern estuarine zone (28° 29' 45″ S to 48° 45' 36″ W). In four estuaries along the Brazilian coast where O. beta was recorded, there are internal ports that trade with countries from the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean Sea (species original range), indicating ballast water as a possible introduction route. In Laguna, the introduction may have occurred by maritime cabotage services. The reproductive capacity, the aquarists' interest, the absence of introduction policies aimed at this species and the cabotage fleet transportation may be factors that help further extend the dispersal of O. beta on the Brazilian coast.
  • Diet of three juvenile fish species of the coastal zone of a Southwest Atlantic beach, Brazil
    Jessica Knoeller, Acácio Ribeiro Gomes Tomás, Teodoro Vaske Junior
    Acta Scientiarum Biological Sciences, 2022
    Surf zones are associated with a shelter area, nursery and feeding for several species of fish. In this study, the dietary habits of three species of fish with demersal habits (Gulf kingcroaker Menticirrhu gracilis, Whitesea catfish Genidens barbus and Barbu Polydacytlus virginicus), were verified in the surf zone area of an active urban beach of Baixada Santista, concerning structure in size, day and night abundances and overlapping diets. A total of 617 fish were analyzed, of which 362 were 194 were G. barbus and 61 were P. virginicus. Stomach contents, represented in Relative Importance Index diagrams, showed that the bivalve Donax gemmula is the most important food item for M. gracilis, scales of Teleostei for G. barbus and Euphausiacea for P. virginicus. In order to evaluate the similarity of the diets, the Macarthur & Levins indices and a cluster analysis with the Bray-Curtis distance were applied revealing that the diet is 44% different between G. barbus and M. gracilis, 5% between G. barbus and P. virginicus and of 84% between M. gracilis and P. virginicus. Anthropogenic waste like plastic, nylon, metal pieces, were only occasionaly observed.
  • Recreational angling and related conflicts in a disturbed estuarine environment of the Southwest Atlantic
    Carlos Gonçalves Belruss, Sergio Luis dos Santos Tutui, Acácio Ribeiro Gomes Tomás
    Ocean and Coastal Research, 2022
    We assessed the angling conducted in the Santos estuarine area (southeastern Brazil) between September 2012 and November 2013. The results, based on 189 interviews conducted in 38 different fishing locations, showed that shore-based anglers were predominantly residents (78%) and spent US$23 per fishing day. However, 61% of the onboard anglers were from the São Paulo metropolitan area and spent around US$100 per fishing day, generating a potentially important economic impact. Only two of the 15 variables analyzed showed no significant differences between the anglers' categories. According to the anglers' perception the possible pressure on the fishery resources and conflicts regarding resource use and areas in the face of port and industrial activities, urbanization, lack of security, as well as the anglers' time of experience, should be considered in any management measures to be proposed.
