Synthesis on moored FADs in the North West Pacific region

, 2000
In early 1980s, fad fisheries were introduced from the Philippines to Japan, mainly to Okinawa. The fisheries have well developed becoming one of the main fisheries in Okinawa where 210 fads are approved to deploy in 1999. The annual catch by roughly 1 000 boats (most of them are small) is 2500-4000 mt; average catch from one fad is about 20 mt ...

A Zonal‐Meridional Projection Method for Quantifying Global Land‐Ocean Moisture Transport

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
We present a physically consistent and computationally efficient method to quantify global coastal moisture transport by projecting vertically integrated moisture flux onto signed land–ocean boundary segments. The signed projection naturally distinguishes ocean‐to‐land inflow and land‐to‐ocean outflow without explicit directional classification ...

Contrasting Heatwave Regimes in Dry and Humid Subtropical Mexico: A Station‐Based Probabilistic Assessment

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Heatwaves have intensified under a warming climate, producing substantial environmental and societal impacts. This study characterizes heatwave regimes in two contrasting regions of Mexico using a percentile‐based threshold and a Poisson distribution framework.

Understanding conscientious objection among pharmacists in New Zealand

Journal of Pharmacy Practice and Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Conscientious objection (CO) recognises healthcare practitioners' freedom of conscience but can impact equitable access to services. There is limited research in understanding CO among pharmacists. Aim To investigate CO among pharmacists in New Zealand, including support for and factors influencing CO decisions in providing various ...

Is quinoa‐farming sustainable in marginal environments? Social, economical and environmental aspects

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) is an Andean grain crop introduced as a novel crop to many parts of the world in recent years. Recognized for nutritious seeds and high abiotic stress tolerance, it has been promoted as an element of climate‐resilient agriculture, particularly in marginal environments.

The frequency of autumn western North Pacific tropical cyclone linking to spring western Pacific SST anomalies

Environmental Research Letters
Autumn typhoons, despite their lower occurrence rate, impose significant, and at times, greater economic impacts on Asia than summer typhoons. Accurately predicting the interannual variations in autumn typhoon frequency remains a persistent challenge ...

Ringtail (Bassariscus astutus) survival in southwestern Oregon

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We captured and monitored radio‐collared ringtails over 2 years to estimate monthly and annual survival rates. We found that annual survival rates were much higher within forested landscapes in Oregon than for populations in the southwestern United States.

Anomalous high salinity water mass in the western boundary of Northwest Pacific following the 2015 El Niño

Environmental Research Communications
The influence of extreme climate events on regional water mass variability in the western North Pacific (NP) remains poorly understood. In 2017, Seaglider and Argo float observations revealed an anomalously high-salinity (S > 35) North Pacific Tropical ...

The Relationship Between Human Activities and Ecosystem Service Supply–Demand From the Perspective of Land Use Transformation

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The equilibrium between ecosystem service supply and demand relationships (ESSDR) is essential for regional sustainable development. Understanding the relationship between human activity intensity (HAI) and ESSDR from the perspective of land use transformation (LT) is important for ecological management and governance.
