The recruitment of marine species in isolated oceanic island systems can be challenged by prevailing currents, as exemplified by the Tropical Southwestern Atlantic. In this region, the Fernando de Noronha ridge hosts several seamounts, the Rocas Atoll and the Fernando de Noronha Archipelago, which are home to great marine biodiversity. However, alo...

Tropical marine ecosystems are highly biodiverse and provide resources for small-scale fisheries and tourism. However, precise information on fish spatial distribution is lacking, which limits our ability to reconcile exploitation and conservation. We combined acoustics to video observations to provide a comprehensive description of fish distributi...

Triggerfish are widely distributed in tropical waters where they play an important ecological role. The black triggerfish Melichthys niger may be the dominant species around oceanic tropical islands, whereas pelagic triggerfish, such as the ocean triggerfish Canthidermis sufflamen, can assemble around fish aggregating devices (FADs) where they are...

This dataset contains acoustic data collected around Fernando de Noronha Archipelago off northeast Brazil within the framework of Fish around Fernando de Noronha FAROFA surveys performed in sept 2017, April 2018 and April 2019.

This dataset contains hydrographical profiles achieved around Fernando de Noronha Archipelago off northeast Brazil within the framework of Fish around Fernando de Noronha FAROFA surveys performed in sept 2017 (9 profiles), April 2018 (17 profiles) and April 2019 (12 profiles). CTD profiles were achieved using a RBR Concerto logger measuring depth,...
