Abstract The world of Colombian gaited horses, or cultura caballista (horse‐riding culture), is often linked with uribismo, the right‐wing identity associated with former president Álvaro Uribe Vélez. Ethnographic fieldwork in conflict‐torn Antioquia reveals how horse‐human practices of training, breeding, and competition cultivate orientations toward ...

Abstract Bycatch in fisheries is one of the most serious threats to pelagic seabirds, causing major population declines. Mitigation measures can reduce bycatch substantially, but many fisheries fail to apply best practices, and seabird mortality remains high.

Abstract Bioinvasions are considered mostly as a biodiversity and conservation hazard, but in specific situations, introduced species can bring ecological or socioeconomic benefits. We assessed the social–ecological role of marine introduced species in the eastern Mediterranean Sea—a global hotspot of bioinvasions and extirpations—and their potential ...

Fewer devil rays in the sea: Evidence of declining mobulid populations off India's coast
Manta and devil rays are declining globally due to targeted and incidental capture, but species‐specific assessments are limited by unmonitored fisheries. Using morphometric, demographic, and fishery metrics, we show for the first time in India long‐term (2013–2023) declines in Mobula mobular, Mobula tarapacana, Mobula birostris, and Mobula thurstoni ...

Study of the Six-seam Trawl―II The Mechanical Comparisons of a Six-seam Trawl and a Four-seam Trawl
After analyzing theoretically the mechanical characteristics of a sixseam trawl and a four-seam trawl, a series of experiments of both models was conducted in a ferro circulating water tank to compare their relative merits. The comparison of their important performance such as the spread of wings, elevation of headline and total resistance of nets was ...

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.
