Twenty Years of Research in Seabass and Seabream Welfare during Slaughter
The behavioural responses of fish to a stressful situation must be considered an adverse reaction caused by the perception of pain. Consequently, the handling prior to stunning and the immediacy of loss consciousness following stunning are the aspects to

Unequal confrontation: Low demography and difficult resistance in the conquest of the Canary Islands [PDF]
Las islas Canarias tuvieron una escasa población indígena que facilitó la conquista, por lo que sólo se emplearon pequeños contingentes de tropas. Las cifras en las crónicas de la conquista están sobredimensionadas para otorgar mayor importancia militar ...

Abstract Climate change is anticipated to considerably reduce global marine fish biomass, driving marine ecosystems into unprecedented states with no historical analogs. The Time of Emergence (ToE) marks the pivotal moment when climate conditions (i.e., signal) deviate from pre‐industrial norms (i.e., noise).

Positive species interactions structure rhodolith bed communities at a global scale
ABSTRACT Rhodolith beds are diverse and globally distributed habitats. Nonetheless, the role of rhodoliths in structuring the associated species community through a hierarchy of positive interactions is yet to be recognised. In this review, we provide evidence that rhodoliths can function as foundation species of multi‐level facilitation cascades and ...

Rhodolith Beds in Brazil—A Natural Heritage in Need of Conservation
ABSTRACT Aim Brazil harbours the largest known extent of rhodolith beds (RBs) in the world, a habitat whose ecological and economic importance have been widely overlooked. This creates a dire situation that is likely to worsen with the rapidly expanding human activities, considering that less than 5% of Brazil's ocean area is fully protected.
