An autonomous and economical benthic incubation chamber for measuring dissolved oxygen fluxes in shallow, low‐flow environments

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Benthic incubation chambers enclose a known volume of water overlying a known area to measure water chemistry changes and are typically used to quantify the metabolic activity of benthic organisms or communities. Here we present an economical benthic incubation chamber for shallow, low‐flow environments, built using off‐the‐shelf components ...

Study on the Dynamic Response of Mooring System of Multiple Fish Cages under the Combined Effects of Waves and Currents

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Deep-sea aquaculture can alleviate the spatial and environmental pressure of near-shore aquaculture and produce higher quality aquatic products, which is the main development direction of global aquaculture.

Fatigue analysis on the mooring chain of a spread moored FPSO considering the OPB and IPB

International Journal of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering, 2019
The appropriate design of a mooring system to maintain the position of an offshore structure in deep sea under various environmental loads is important. Fatigue design of the mooring line considering OPB/IPB(out-of-plane bending/in-plane bending) became ...

The Politics of Policy Robustness: A Central Paradox and Computational Review of Adaptive Policymaking

Public Administration and Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Policy robustness, that is, the capacity of policies to sustain performance across diverse and uncertain futures, is increasingly considered a core objective of public policymaking. Although adaptive policymaking is widely promoted as an approach to achieving policy robustness, it suffers from a central paradox highlighted by theories of the ...

MOTION OF FLOATING BODY AND MOORING LINE TENSION WITH DYNAMIC EFFECT

Doboku Gakkai Ronbunshu, 1990
Under severe storm condition, mooring system of a floating body will become taut condition. To estimate motion and mooring tension on such condition, a practical calculation method considering dynamic effect of mooring line is presented. Also experimental study on a floating cylinder moored by relatively small chain is carried out and following ...

Views from the hill: Deer stalkers' perspectives on land‐use change in the Scottish Highlands

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Land‐use and wildlife management are changing globally as part of efforts to address contemporary environmental challenges. In the Scottish Highlands, the hunting—or ‘stalking’—of deer has entered a period of considerable flux primarily because of national policy changes to mitigate climate change and biodiversity loss.

Experimental and Numerical Study of the Influence of Clumped Weights on a Scaled Mooring Line

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
Recently, several experimental and numerical studies have underlined the advantages of adding clumped weights at discrete positions of mooring lines. To confirm the influence of these weights, an experimental study was performed for a 1:30 scale model of

Rhyming in the cold: first evidence of soniferous fishes in the Southern Ocean

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
The acoustic ecology of Southern Ocean fishes remains unknown due to a lack of dedicated acoustic research on the fishes of this ocean. Passive acoustic monitoring data were collected at the South African sub‐Antarctic Prince Edward Islands using an underwater acoustic recorder, and towed underwater Ski‐Monkey cameras were deployed to identify fish ...

Members Only—The Emergence of the Business Family as a Professionalized and Differentiated Organizational System

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The importance of business families is increasingly gaining attention. However, to truly understand business families and their dynamics, they must be viewed as distinct systems. Since this area has received limited scholarly focus, we argue that forming a new system is more than just an extension.
