Evaluating and Advancing the Use of Shore‐Based Observers for Scientific Sampling and Catch Verification in High‐Volume Fisheries

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Shore‐based observers are increasingly being used in place of at‐sea observers to monitor and sample commercial fisheries catch. However, few evaluations assess whether these programs meet their stated goals or how to optimize them, and industry data are rarely tested for accuracy despite serving as the foundation for catch accounting. Using a

Note on the fisheries and biology of the golden crab (Chaceon fenneri) off the northern coast of Brazil

open access: yesLatin American Journal of Aquatic Research, 2009
The occurrence of golden crabs (Chaceon fenneri) off the northern coast of Brazil was first reported in 2001. Since then, a few companies and boats have exploited this resource. In the state of Ceará, one company has been fishing for these crabs with a single boat since 2003. The production and fishing effort of this company indicated a decrease in the

High Cost and Low Trust: Insights From Qualitative Commercial Fishing Cost Data in the Northeast United States

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In fisheries management, socioeconomic data, specifically qualitative data analysis, is often underutilized. This study qualitatively analyzed a primary federal data collection effort in the Northeast United States, The Greater Atlantic Region Commercial Fishing Business Cost Survey.

Human activities accelerated the degradation of saline seepweed red beaches by amplifying top‐down and bottom‐up forces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Salt marshes dominated by saline seepweed (Suaeda heteroptera) provide important ecosystem services such as sequestering carbon (blue carbon), maintaining healthy fisheries, and protecting shorelines. These salt marshes also constitute stunning red beach

Risk of Spread of Megalocytivirus pagrus1 (Infectious Spleen and Kidney Necrosis Virus) From Frozen Fillets

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Infectious spleen and kidney necrosis virus (ISKNV) is a significant threat to global aquatic food security by causing large‐scale mortality in the aquaculture of tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) and mandarin fish (Siniperca chuatsi). ISKNV is a genogroup of Megalocytivirus pagrus1, along with RSIV and TRBIV, and their recent listing as WOAH ...

A wind model for high energy pulses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
A solution to the sigma problem - that of finding a mechanism capable of converting Poynting energy flux to particle-borne energy flux in a pulsar wind - was proposed several years ago by Coroniti and Michel who considered a particular prescription for ...

Absolute timing of the Crab pulsar with the INTEGRAL/SPI telescope

open access: yes, 2009
We have investigated the pulse shape evolution of the Crab pulsar emission in the hard X-ray domain of the electromagnetic spectrum. In particular, we have studied the alignment of the Crab pulsar phase profiles measured in the hard X-rays and in other ...

The Microtubule‐Associated Protein CsTON2 Interacts With CsTRM5 and CsSUN to Regulate Fruit Shape Development in Cucumber

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fruit shape is an important external quality trait that directly determines the market value. Modification of fruit shape has emerged as a key focus in crop improvement, but the regulatory network of fruit shape specifications remains largely unknown.

Sablefish, Anoplopoma fimbria, Populations on Gulf of Alaska Seamounts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Sablefish, Anoplopoma fimbria, were tagged and released on Gulf of Alaska seamounts during 1999–2002 to determine the extent, if any, of emigration from the seamounts back to the continental slope and of movement between seamounts.
