Food Contamination and Safety in Nigeria: A Systematic Synthesis of Heavy Metals, Microbial Pathogens, and Health Risk Metrics

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
This is an infographic driver of food contaminants and health effects. ABSTRACT Food safety remains a critical challenge in Nigeria due to rapid urbanization and weak regulatory enforcement. This systematic review synthesizes empirical evidence from 2015 to 2025 to characterize food contaminant profiles and associated human health risks in Nigeria ...

Advanced technology provides insight into marine habitats

open access: yesCalifornia Agriculture, 1997
The pattern of boom and bust in major commercial fisheries has occurred many times around the world, and always with major economic consequences. A classic example is the sardine fishery in Monterey Bay. At the sardine fishery apex in the 1930s and 1940s,

‘Pre‐Technologies’ and the Lifeworld: Assistive Technologies as ‘Pre‐Technologies’ for Self‐Formation as Freedom

open access: yesJournal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article identifies assistive technologies (ATs) as ‘pre‐technologies’ mediating access to other technologies for disabled subjects (DSs). The motivation is to show that without ATs, DSs cannot be said to have the same level of access to freedom and self‐forming activities as able‐bodied subjects.

A lightweight clear liquid optical chamber baited remote underwater video system for monitoring fish in turbid coastal wetlands

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Clear liquid optical chamber baited remote underwater video systems (CLOC‐BRUV) are an effective option for assessing fish assemblages in turbid water, but current designs are limited by their large size and high operational costs. We developed a lightweight CLOC‐BRUV unit and evaluated its performance through proof‐of‐concept trials and field

Degeneration of postovulatory follicles in the Iberian sardine Sardina pilchardus: structural changes and factors affecting resorption [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Inaccuracy in the aging of postovulatory follicles (POFs) and in estimating the effect of temperature on the resorption rate of POFs may introduce bias in the determination of the daily spawning age classes with the daily egg production method (DEPM). To

Reconstructing Early Human Subsistence in Near Oceania: New Insights From Matenkupkum and Matenbek

open access: yesInternational Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The colonization of New Ireland ~44–40,000 years ago represents the earliest evidence of human occupation in Near Oceania. Yet, the precise impacts of climatic changes on subsistence strategies during the Late Pleistocene, Last Glacial Maximum, and Holocene remain poorly understood.

Environmental Contaminant Accumulation in Freshwater Turtles Inhabiting Three Rivers of the Permian Basin, New Mexico, USA

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Freshwater turtles are valuable sentinels of aquatic systems due to their long lifespans and resilience in environments impacted by contaminants. The Permian Basin, dominated by the oil and gas sector, spans western Texas and southeastern New Mexico, USA, including the Pecos River and its tributaries, the Delaware and Black Rivers.

Fishing areas characterisation using the SIMOcean platform

open access: yesAquatic Living Resources, 2017
In this study, the relationships between sea surface temperature (SST), chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) concentration and catch locations of sardine (Sardina pilchardus) and Atlantic chub mackerel (Scomber colias) were explored using satellite-derived SST and Chl ...
