Drivers of decision making in pain diagnosis and treatment: Findings from an ethnographic study of veterinary practice

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Poor pain management in horses is a welfare concern. The ‘diagnosis’ of pain cannot be separated from the broader set of interactions through which it emerges. The interactions that take place during veterinary consultations shape the ways in which, or whether, pain management is discussed.

Benefits of Spatial Regulation in a Multispecies System [PDF]

open access: yes
Spatial heterogeneity in multispecies systems affects both ecological interactions and the composition of harvest. A bioeconomic model is used to analyze the nonselective harvest of two stocks with generalized ecological interaction and different ...

Ecosystem Impacts of the Landing Obligation for Unwanted Catch in Thermaikos Gulf (Greece)

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Discards by marine commercial fisheries have been an issue of major concern to the scientific community in recent years. We modeled the ecological and trophic consequences of a mandatory landing obligation (LO) regulated by the reformed Common Fisheries Policy [Regulation (EU) 1380/2013] on the Thermaikos Gulf ecosystem (northwestern Aegean ...

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

Joint Spatiotemporal Models for the Estimation of Prey Consumption and Predator–Prey Overlap: Dynamics of Pacific Cod Predation on Snow and Tanner Crab in the Eastern Bering Sea

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pacific cod (Gadus macrocephalus) are important predators of juvenile snow (Chionoecetes opilio) and Tanner crab (Chionoecetes bairdi) in the eastern Bering Sea (EBS), yet the relationship between cod–crab spatial overlap and total crab consumption is only partially understood.
