A new compilation of stomach content data for commercially-important pelagic fish species in the Northeast Atlantic
There is increasing demand for information on predator-prey interactions in the ocean as a result of legislative commitments aimed at achieving sustainable exploitation. However, comprehensive datasets are lacking for many fish species and this has hampered development of multispecies fisheries mode...
