Evaluating the impact of captive ancestry on the growth and survival of Delta Smelt in a captive environment

Aquaculture Reports
Delta Smelt Hypomesus transpacificus, is an endangered fish endemic to the California San Francisco Bay-Delta, USA. Extreme declines of the wild Delta Smelt population have prompted use of cultured fish to supplement the wild population since 2021 to ...

High‐Dimensional Cumulative Sum Control Charts for Industrial Measurement Systems

Quality and Reliability Engineering International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT High dimensional sensing in modern factories and energy assets produces thousands of correlated signals. Detecting small process shifts is challenging because many classical multivariate charts lose power or become unstable. We present two cumulative sum procedures for two sample monitoring that remain effective when the number of variables is

Sequential Reduction of Chromite Pellets Using Hydrogen and Silicon Carbide for Carbon Emission Abatement During Ferrochrome Production

steel research international, EarlyView.
H2 prereduction selectively metallizes Fe in UG2 chromite pellets at 1100°C, while silicon carbide becomes active at 1300°C to convert remaining Cr2O3 to carbides and promote Cr metallization. By separating the roles of H2 and SiC, the sequential route reaches up to 65.7% Cr metallization and suppresses in‐furnace CO generation by ≈75% versus ...

Osteological, Biological, and Genetic Consequences of Colonization of Fresh Waters by Marine Cottoid Fishes (Cottidae)

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Lacustrine forms of Triglopsis from North American and European lakes are at different stages of evolution, making them a suitable model for testing hypotheses about evolutionary patterns and rates. An integrative analysis of morphological, genetic, and biological adaptations occurring in lacustrine forms of the genus Triglopsis was carried out.

Innovation and the great divergence

The Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent historical national accounting data show that the timing of the Great Divergence hinges on the different trends in north‐west Europe and the Yangzi Delta region of China. Although north‐west Europe only pulled ahead of the Yangzi Delta after 1700, both the positive trend of GDP per capita in north‐west Europe after 1700 and the negative

Demand Shocks, Export Diversification, and Firm Performance During the Great Trade Collapse

Journal of Economics &Management Strategy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper analyzes the impact of external demand shocks from the 2008 to 2009 Great Trade Collapse on the performance of Chinese exporters and examines how export diversification mitigates these effects. Using Chinese Customs data merged with financial data from all listed Chinese firms, we construct firm‐specific demand shocks based on pre ...

Altered photoperiod affects behaviour in a key fish grazer, the thinlip grey mullet, Chelon ramada

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The aim of this study is to address experimentally the immediate impacts of an alteration of the photoperiod, simulating an extreme artificial light pollution, on the behaviour and stress of a key grazer fish common in temperate coastal ecosystems in Europe, the thinlip grey mullet, Chelon ramada.
