The Economic History Review, EarlyView.Abstract One of the most contentious issues in the study of the Atlantic slave trade is the profitability of the trade. In this paper, we contribute by pooling all available data on transatlantic slave ship voyage accounts into a joint dataset. This dataset includes data from a period of 100 years (1730–1830) and from five nations (Denmark, France ...

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The recreational fishery for pollack (Pollachius pollachius) in the northeast Atlantic is impacted by the species' high sensitivity to barotrauma. When captured at depth and brought to the surface, gas expansion within the peritoneal cavity can cause a variety of injuries and hinder release.

Residual relief modelling: digital elevation enhancement for shipwreck site characterisation
Archaeological and Anthropological Sciences, 2020 Scour processes play a critical role in the preservation status of submerged historic shipwrecks. Erosion of sediment leads to enhanced exposure of archaeological sites to physical, chemical and biological processes.

Historic Wooden Shipwrecks Influence Dispersal of Deep-Sea Biofilms
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 Wood arrives on the seabed from natural and anthropogenic sources (e.g., wood falls and wooden shipwrecks, respectively) and creates seafloor habitats for macro-, meio- and microbiota.

Oxford Journal of Archaeology, EarlyView.Summary This article analyses the dynamics of Roman olive‐oil and wine production and commerce in present‐day France from the second half of the second century BC to the mid‐fourth century AD, drawing on a corpus of more than 7000 amphorae recovered from Gallic and Romano‐Gallic settlements across the French territory, excluding Alsace. The methodology
