Tracking the flight and landing behaviour of western flower thrips in response to single and two-colour cues

Scientific Reports, 2023
Real-time 3D tracking and high-speed videography was used to examine the behaviour of a worldwide greenhouse pest, the western flower thrips (WFT), in response to different colours in the context of improving trap design.

Preliminary evaluation of landings and discards of the Turkish bottom trawl fishery in the northeastern Aegean Sea (eastern Mediterranean)

Scientia Marina, 2014
This short-term study on commercial discards was carried out in fishing grounds around Gökçeada Island in the northeastern Aegean Sea, a geographic area where fisheries information is rather limited.

Long-term changes in the mean trophic level of Central Chile fishery landings

Scientia Marina, 2005
We explore long-term changes in the mean trophic level (TLm) of Central Chile fishery landings, using a 21 years data series (1979-1999) of official landings (Chilean Fisheries Service) of 16 species that comprise about 95% of total landing, and their ...

A Review of DJI’s Mavic Pro Precision Landing Accuracy

International Journal of Aviation, Aeronautics, and Aerospace, 2020
Precision landing has the potential to increase the accuracy of autonomous landings. Unique applications require specific landing performance; for example, wireless charging loses efficiency with a misalignment of 100mm.

A Long-Term Overview of Elasmobranch Fisheries in an Oceanic Archipelago: A Case Study of the Madeira Archipelago

Fishes
Elasmobranch species are considered a global conservation priority due to their susceptibility to fishing pressure. In the Madeira Archipelago, Northeastern Atlantic, most elasmobranch species are caught as bycatch in artisanal drifting longline fishery ...

Studying the contribution of different fishing gears to the Sardinella small-scale fishery in Senegalese waters

Aquatic Living Resources, 2017
This study investigated variations of landings of two key species, Sardinella aurita and Sardinella maderensis, in Senegalese waters over a ten-year period (2004–2013). Using generalized additive models, it was found that fishing gear played a major role

Does lower extremity alignment during normal stance predict lower limb kinematics and kinetics during drop landings?

BMC Sports Science, Medicine and Rehabilitation, 2023
Background Static lower extremity alignment (LEA) during normal stance has been used clinically as a tool to determine the presence of known anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) risk factors during dynamic tasks.

Social and temporal dynamics mediate the distribution of ecosystem service benefits from a small-scale fishery

Ecosystems and People, 2022
Small-scale fisheries are important for the livelihoods and food security of millions of people in low-income countries. Sustainably managing these dynamic social-ecological systems requires understanding links between ecosystems and human well-being ...

Predator-prey collapses at the edge of predator distribution: the case of clupeids and common guillemots (Uria aalge) in NW Iberia

Scientia Marina, 2023
The spatial structuring of seabird populations makes individual colonies very dependent on regional factors. That is especially the case in small edge populations located far from large colonies.
