The Cost of Self‐Sufficiency: Could New Zealand be Self‐Sufficient in Food Consumption?
Ensuring that New Zealand can sustainably meet its future food needs requires an understanding of the interaction between domestic demand trends, trade and the capacity of national production systems. Although New Zealand is a major exporter of dairy, meat, fruit and other primary products, rising food insecurity, changing dietary preferences and ...

Abstract We assess temperature and salinity vertical profile (1970–2025) and mooring time series (1999–2025) data for structure, trends, and variability at northern Gulf of Alaska coastal oceanographic station GAK1 (59° 50.7′N, 149° 28.0′W). The whole water column (0–250 m) is warming, though marginally faster at the surface (+0.21 ± 0.05°C decade−1 ...

The systematic and biogeographical status of Fredius reflexifrons (Ortmann, 1897) and Fredius fittkaui (Bott, 1967) (Crustacea: Brachyura: Pseudothelphusidae) from the Amazon and Atlantic Guianas River basins [PDF]
There is considerable confusion in the literature regarding the systematic position and distribution of two pseudothelphusid crabs originally described as Potamocarcinus reflexifrons Ortmann, 1897 and Potamocarcinus reflexifrons fittkaui Bott, 1967, and ...

Biofloc‐based aquaculture: From monoculture to integrated systems
Abstract The demand for high‐quality protein has been growing in recent years, led by population growth. The development of aquaculture has been considered one of the solutions to ensure food security worldwide. New farming technologies have been promoted to increase productivity and, at the same time, minimize environmental impacts.
