Fish landings, discards and benthic material from demersal trawling in the western English Channel (ICES VIIe)
This study examined the impact of inshore single boat otter trawling from Newlyn, Looe, Plymouth and Salcombe and pair boat demersal trawling from Looe and Plymouth on the benthic environment off the SW peninsula of the UK between 1998 and 2000. Fish and shellfish species (54 and 11 species …

Effect of future CO2 and temperature regimes on phytoplankton community composition, biomass and photosynthetic rates in the western English Channel
… with natural communities sampled from the western English Channel (WEC). Elevated pCO2 increased phytoplankton biomass by up to 20-fold while elevated temperature resulted in an increase of up to 14-fold. Light-saturated photosynthetic carbon fixation rates increased > 6-fold under elevated …

An investigation of factors influencing the spatial and temporal distribution of surface phytoplankton in the English Channel and Bay of Biscay in 2003 and 2004
… regions in 2004 low salinity values off<br/>western France and high solar irradiance in the north are likely to have led to earlier<br/>phytoplankton biomass than in 2003. During early summer, the coccolithophore,<br/>Emiliania huxlyei (>1000 cells ml-1) was widespread in northern stratified …

Factors that impact Pseudo-nitzschia spp. occurrence, growth, and toxin production
… time, the Pseudo-nitzschia (PN) dynamics in the western English Channel (L4) and the environmental factors impacting on domoic acid (DA) production in these waters. This is combined with laboratory studies examining key environmental factors and the multifactorial impact of multiple macronutrient …
