ABSTRACT This study aimed to investigate the trophic ecology of loggerhead turtles recorded stranded along the Paraná coast in southern Brazil. Carbon and nitrogen stable isotopes were analysed in muscle tissues from 20 loggerhead turtles and in 69 specimens representing 12 prey species (molluscs, crustaceans and teleost fishes).

Abstract Aquaponics is an alternative agricultural practice that combines aquaculture with hydroponics. It increases productivity while treating macronutrient loads on effluents. Yet, little information is available on productivity of commercial aquaponic models using saline waters, especially with biofloc technology (BFT) systems, which are ...

Distribution and abundance of ichthyoplankton in Florida Bay [PDF]
Ichthyoplankton was sampled at 14 stations with 60 cm bongo nets fitted with 0.333 mm mesh in basins throughout Florida Bay in 1994-1995. In addition, I compared collections made using an epibenthic sled to those made with standard ichthyoplankton bongo

A Comparison of DNA Metabarcoding Cloacal Swabs and Stomach Contents for Shark Diet Reconstruction
Our results indicate that the less invasive, non‐lethal method of DNA metabarcoding cloacal swabs provided higher taxonomic resolution than more common methods for studying shark trophic ecology (i.e., morphological stomach contents identification and trophic biomarkers) with no statistical difference in overall diet description between cloacal swabs ...
