Feeding ecology of juvenile Pacific salmon (Oncorhynchus spp.) in a northeast Pacific fjord: diet, availability of zooplankton, selectivity for prey, and potential competition for prey resources [PDF]
, 2010 We investigated the feeding ecology of juvenile salmon during the critical early life-history stage of transition from shallow to deep marine waters by sampling two stations (190 m and 60 m deep) in a northeast Pacific fjord (Dabob Bay, WA) between May ...

Comparative captures of pelagic cephalopods by midwater trawls
, 1977 The captures of pelagic cephalo pods by the 3 m Isaacs-Kidd midwater trawl (IKMT), the 8m2 reetangular midwater trawl (RMT 8), and the small (1400 mesh) Engeltrawl (E.MT) are compared. The sampling site was a one-degree square area in the North Atlantic Ocean east of Bermuda known as Ocean Acre. The IKMT and the RMT 8 were equipped with closing devices.

IDEALIZING THE DESIGN MODEL OF THE ROPE PART OF THE MIDWATER TRAWL
Vestnik of Astrakhan State Technical University. Series: Fishing industry, 2018 The article presents a perspective approach to the analysis of a stress state of net gear. A set of assumptions and simplifications of determining the forces acting on the end part of the trawl have been proposed. In terms of strength analysis of the trawl gear elements, the rope section deserves a thorough study, since the rope section elements are ...
