ABSTRACT Owing to its extraordinary lifespan and wide geographical distribution along the continental margins of the North Atlantic Ocean, the ocean quahog Arctica islandica may become an important indicator species in environmental change research.
[ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] At the International Boston Seafood Show in March, Greenpeace showed up with a "red list" of allegedly overfished species to be avoided that included yellowfin, albacore and big eye as well as bluefin tuna, plus Alaska pollock, Greenland and Atlantic halibut, Atlantic salmon (wild or farmed) and cod, tropical shrimp (wild or farmed) and other familiar species, plus less familiar ones like orange roughy, hoki and ocean quahog.
Chris Richardson, a professor in marine biology at Bangor who led the team, said: "We knew the ocean quahog was very long-lived, routinely living 200 years and that it incorporated a climate record in its shell.
