Influence of episodic upwelling on capelin, Mallotusvillosus, and Atlantic cod, Gadusmorhua, catches in Newfoundland coastal waters
Wind‐induced upwelling in the north‐west Atlantic has been hypothesized to influence catch rates of fish by gear fishing at fixed locations. Passive movement to shallow depths during upwelling has been proposed to increase encounter rates of fish with net leaders set at the coast. However, supportin...
