Online media sentiment analysis for US oysters

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 4, Issue 4, August 2024.
In this research, sentiment analysis was applied to social media data concerning oysters spanning from January 2019 to December 2022. Findings indicate a growing preference for farmed oysters, yet certain reservations and criticisms persist within the industry.

Oyster production and meat yield in Crassostrea spp. (bivalvia: Ostreidae) in Pinar del Rio, Cuba

Ecosistemas y Recursos Agropecuarios, 2018
The main fishing enterprise located in the province of Pinar del Río, Cuba, markets oyster meat packed in brine bags of 460 g. Oysters come from natural bank fisheries and farms. During the period 2009 – 2013, captures showed an increasing tendency from

The temperate marine Peruvian Province: How history accounts for its unusual biota

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2024.
Among extant temperate marine biotas, the Peruvian Province is highly unusual in, among other traits, a very high incidence of limpets, gastropods with a labral tooth (to assist in predation), a reversed latitudinal diversity gradient, and the absence of several ecological guilds.

Investigating the Upper Holocene palaeoenvironment and human subsistence strategy in the Khor Rori coastal area by studying mollusc remains from the Inqitat plateau (Dhofar, Sultanate of Oman)

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 39, Issue 4, Page 608-625, May 2024.
ABSTRACT Archaeological shells have a great potential for reconstructing past environments and human–environment interactions. The Inqitat plateau (Khor Rori Archaeological Park, Oman) shows rich mollusc assemblages, present in the HAS1 settlement and in a shell midden nearby (Iron Age).

Levels of Platinum Group Metals in Selected Species (Sarotherodon melanotheron, Chonophorus lateristriga, Macrobrachium vollenhovenii and Crassostrea tulipa) in Some Estuaries and Lagoons Along the Coast of Ghana

The Scientific World Journal, 2010
The use of some biota as bioindicators of heavy metal pollution has been demonstrated as particularly adequate due to their capacity of bioconcentration.

Feasting in mussel farms fattens up snapper (Chrysophrys auratus) compared to snapper in adjacent natural habitats

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 4, Issue 2, April 2024.
Abstract The presence of wild fish in and around aquaculture habitats is often assumed a response to food resources within these habitats, either from input feed, the presence of cultured species, and/or the assemblage of biofouling that naturally colonises aquaculture structures.

Projected ocean temperatures impair key proteins used in vision of octopus hatchlings

Global Change Biology, Volume 30, Issue 4, April 2024.
The early life stages of species are especially sensitive to environmental stressors including the current human‐driven rise in global temperatures. As proteins play crucial roles in regulating normal physiological functions, analysing changes in protein abundance in response to thermal stress can offer valuable insights into a species' ability to ...

Paleogene ostreoids (Bivalvia, Gryphaeidae, Ostreidae) from Northeast Iran

Paleontología Mexicana, 2019
Three species of Paleogene ostreoids are reported for first time from the Chehel Kaman Formation Formation of North Iran. Although there are numerous specimens of ostreoids, only a few are preserved sufficiently well to enable a specific identification. The species include Pycnodonte brongniarti (Bronn, 1831), Pycnodonte pharaonum (Oppenheim, 1903) and

Expanding the phylogeography and connectivity of Perkinsus species across North and Central America

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 30, Issue 3, March 2024.
Abstract Aim Parasites in the genus Perkinsus infect marine molluscs globally, with novel detections expanding and reshaping our knowledge of their biogeographic patterns and the factors influencing those patterns. Here, we aimed to characterize the phylogeography and genetic connectivity of Perkinsus spp.
