在人类活动对海洋的影响中,捕鱼是最普遍的影响之一,而且影响最深。由于捕鱼降低了鱼类的密度(降低了直接传播寄生虫的传播效率),选择性地去除大鱼(往往比小鱼携带更多的寄生虫),并降低了食物网的复杂性(降低了营养传播寄生虫的传播效率),数百年来从世界海洋中去除鱼类可能会推动长期的全球鱼类寄生虫下降。近年来,人们越来越认识到寄生虫是生物多样性的重要组成部分,它们的丧失可能会大大改变生态系统的功能。这种损失可能是科学家们认识到的工业捕鱼的最后一个主要生态影响之一。
Among anthropogenic effects on the ocean, fishing is one of the most pervasive and extends deepest into the past. Because fishing reduces the density of fish (reducing transmission efficiency of directly transmitted parasites), selectively removes large fish (which tend to carry more parasites than small fish), and reduces food web complexity (reducing transmission efficiency of trophically transmitted parasites), the removal of fish from the world's oceans over the course of hundreds of years may be driving a longterm, global decline in fish parasites. There has been growing recognition in recent years that parasites are a critical part of biodiversity and that their loss could substantially alter ecosystem function. Such a loss may be among the last major ecological effects of industrial fishing to be recognized by scientists.
