Evidence that Pacific tuna mercury levels are driven by marine methylmercury production and anthropogenic inputs

Anais Medieu et al.

Summary: A study finds that mercury levels in Pacific Ocean tuna vary spatially, with the highest concentrations near Asia and the lowest in the western and central Pacific. These differences are primarily attributed to the depth of the seawater methylmercury peak near low-oxygen zones. The mercury hotspot near Asia is likely influenced by elevated atmospheric mercury concentrations and/or mercury river inputs. The study suggests that recent anthropogenic mercury release in Asia contributes to current human mercury exposure.

A Global Review of Cadmium, Mercury, and Selenium in Sharks: Geographical Patterns, Baseline Levels and Human Health Implications

Felipe Amezcua et al.

Summary: The study reviewed the concentrations of Hg, Cd, and Se in sharks' muscle, liver, and fins globally, finding significant differences in elemental concentrations among different FAO regions and oceans. Some levels of Cd, Hg, and Se in shark muscle exceeded the maximum permissible limits for human consumption, with elevated Hg values being a particular concern in some studies.

Trophic niche of Australian cownose rays (Rhinoptera neglecta) and whitespotted eagle rays (Aetobatus ocellatus) along the east coast of Australia

Alysha J. Chan et al.

Summary: This study examined the trophic interactions and isotopic niches of Australian cownose rays and whitespotted eagle rays off temperate eastern Australia. The results showed overlapping trophic niches between the two species, with the niche of cownose rays being smaller and more constrained. Preservation methods (ethanol storage versus frozen) did not significantly affect the isotopic values of cownose ray fin-clip tissue. This study provides valuable insights for future research on the trophic interactions and resource management of these species.

Foraging plasticity diversifies mercury exposure sources and bioaccumulation patterns in the world's largest predatory fish

Gael Le Croizier et al.

Summary: This study illustrated significant variations in mercury exposure sources within and among different white shark populations, suggesting intraspecific exposure to distinct marine methylmercury sources attributed to shifts in foraging habitat and prey composition. The research also observed divergence in mercury accumulation rates between populations, leading to higher mercury concentrations in the Australasian sharks compared to north-eastern Pacific sharks, likely due to different trophic strategies adopted by adult sharks. It highlights the importance of considering intraspecific variability when assessing future trajectories of mercury levels in marine predators.

Mercury concentrations, biomagnification and isotopic discrimination factors in two seabird species from the Humboldt Current ecosystem

Gael Le Croizier et al.

Summary: This study analyzed mercury concentrations, biomagnification, and isotopic discrimination factors in two seabird species and their main prey in the Humboldt Current ecosystem. The results showed similar biomagnification and δC-13 values to previous studies on captive piscivorous seabirds, but lower δN-15 values. The lower mercury concentrations in Humboldt seabirds compared to other oligotrophic ecosystems may be due to mercury biodilution in the high biomass of lower trophic levels.

Seventy years of tunas, billfishes, and sharks as sentinels of global ocean health

Maria Jose Juan-Jorda et al.

Summary: This study uses iconic and well-studied fish species to calculate yearly changes in extinction risk and track progress towards global sustainability and biodiversity targets. The study finds that the biodiversity loss curve has shifted for certain fish species with effective fisheries management, but continues to worsen for sharks which are undermanaged.

Half a century of global decline in oceanic sharks and rays

Nathan Pacoureau et al.

Summary: Overfishing is the primary cause of marine defaunation, with global abundance of oceanic sharks and rays declining by 71% since 1970. Three-quarters of the species in this important assemblage are now at risk of extinction. Urgent measures, such as strict fishing prohibitions and science-based catch limits, are needed to prevent further population collapse and promote species recovery.

Concentrations and stable isotopes of mercury in sharks of the Galapagos Marine Reserve: Human health concerns and feeding patterns

Summary: The study determined the THg concentration in common shark species in the Galapagos Marine Reserve and highlighted the human health risks associated with shark consumption. Mercury isotopic compositions were also found to be useful in tracing the foraging strategies of these marine predators.

Foraging depth depicts resource partitioning and contamination level in a pelagic shark assemblage: Insights from mercury stable isotopes

Lucien Besnard et al.

Summary: The decline of shark populations in the world ocean has unpredictable effects on ecosystem structure and function, necessitating new ecological information for a better understanding of the role of sharks in their habitats. Research has found that many shark species primarily forage in the mesopelagic area, but the extent to which different pelagic sharks rely on this habitat has been overlooked. By using mercury stable isotopes in the muscle of pelagic sharks, it is possible to reveal their food partitioning and the relationship between foraging depth and resource competition.

Isotopic Tracers Suggest Limited Trans-Oceanic Movements and Regional Residency in North Pacific Blue Sharks (Prionace glauca)

Daniel J. Madigan et al.

Summary: By using stable isotope ratios, the study found low trans-Pacific exchange rates of blue sharks between the East and West North Pacific Ocean, indicating other mechanisms may maintain genetic mixing of the North Pacific blue shark population. Isotopic differences also suggest potential finer scale movement structure.
