ABSTRACT There is growing global interest in sustainable agriculture and in environmental, social and governance (ESG) accounting. While primary producers' interaction with traditional environmental management are well‐documented, relatively little is known about how farmers perceive and adapt to integrated corporate ESG assessment frameworks at the ...

Variation in Life History Characteristics of Common Bream (Abramis brama) Populations in Sweden
ABSTRACT Knowledge of life history characteristics is important for fisheries management and monitoring of ecosystem integrity. This study examines life history characteristics of common bream (Abramis brama) from Swedish Baltic Sea coastal areas, two larger lakes and five smaller lakes in Sweden.

ABSTRACT Objective Quantitative methods that have evaluated the Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire (EDE‐Q) have found consistent evidence that the original four‐factor structure does not replicate across diverse samples and genders. Emerging evidence in the broader psychology literature shows that qualitative methods can provide nuanced insight ...

When cultures of the microorganism Tetrahymena pyriformis are transferred to environments with different temperature and resource levels, the phenotypic traits of the microorganisms—including cell size, metabolic rate, and movement speed—change.

Climate exposure at different developmental stages exerts ontogenetically variable effects on growth in Dosidicus gigas, with ENSO impacts shifting from cold‐phase growth advantages in early life to warm‐phase advantages later in development. The timing of this shift differs between equatorial and southern groups, reflecting spatial contrasts in ...

ABSTRACT Bycatch remains a critical challenge in global fisheries, even when using selective gears such as longlines. In the French longline fishery targeting Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus) in the Gulf of Lion, the common pelagic stingray (Pteroplatytrygon violacea) is the primary bycatch species.

Estimating von Bertalanffy parameters with individual and environmental variations in growth
Variation among individuals is an ubiquitous feature of natural populations. However, the relative roles of intrinsic individual differences and stochastic processes in generating variation remain poorly understood. For somatic growth, identifying the contribution of individual and stochastic processes to observed variation in size has important ...

Synchronization in Von Bertalanffy’s models
Many data have been useful to describe the growth of marine mammals, invertebrates and reptiles, seabirds, sea turtles and fishes, using the logistic, the Gom-pertz and von Bertalanffy's growth models. A generalized family of von Bertalanffy's maps, which is proportional to the right hand side of von Bertalanffy's growth equation, is studied and its ...

Age and growth of the king mackerel (Scomberomorus Cavalla) off the northeastern coast of Brazil
Age and growth of the king mackerel (Scomberomorus cavalla) were estimated for northeastern Brazil. A total of 405 sagittal otoliths from 140 males (24.4-112 cm), 73 females (28-114.8 cm) and 193 specimens of unknown sex (11.5-121 cm) were examined ...
