Tuna farming and ranching exists on seven continents, in over twenty countries: Algeria, Australia, Bali, Crete, Croatia, Cyprus, France, Israel, Italy, Japan, Libya, Malta, Mexico, Morocco, Portugal, Spain, Tunisia, and Turkey. (Sylvia, 2008). In 2001, the production of 23,000 …
Transformations of the various agricultural systems have been taking place in the coastal zone of Bangladesh. While some farmers continue to follow traditional practices, in recent years, others have become involved in massive shrimp cultivation, shrimp-rice cultivation, a rice-…
Ulva as an aquaculture crop and IMTA component species has received mixed results globally; success has been achieved in South Africa and Israel, whilst in Europe the results have been poor. This project aims to determine if Ulva lactuca is a suitable candidate as an inorganic e…
High seas fishery is among the biggest sources of export for many countries including Indonesia, especially for pelagic and highly migratory species, such as tuna and tuna-like. One of the major developments in high seas fishery is the role of regional fisheries management organ…
Sixty one year old (S1) and sixty two year old (S2) Atlantic salmon smolts derived from comparable egg stocks, were dye-marked and their growth and development individually monitored in a seawater cage for a period of 26 months. During that time, blood samples were withdrawn at …
The thesis's objective is to describe the relationship between inland capture fisheries management and the welfare of the poor m Bangladesh. Existing economic models of fisheries management do not address issues of income-distribution, concentrating instead upon rent-maximisatio…
Information on the growth and maturation of exploited fishes is important for assessing and managing fish populations. These life history processes commonly vary spatially and temporarily in marine fishes due to environmental and ecological factors, which can have implications f…
Larval sea urchins have served as a fundamental system for understanding development, phenotypic plasticity, and life-history evolution over much of the last century. In the recent decade, this understanding has begun to extend to the microbiota associated with larval sea urchin…
Soybean meals (SBM) and its by-products are the most common plant feedstuffs that are used in feeds for a variety of fish species of fish over the last three decades due to high protein levels and good amino acid profile, in comparison with other plant protein sources. In the la…
Withering syndrome (WS) is a chronic bacterial disease of abalones, Haliotis spp., caused by a Rickettsia-like organism (WS-RLO). The etiological agent, Candidatus Xenohaliotis californiensis, occurs along the eastern Pacific margin of North America in California, US and Baja Ca…
American oyster (Crassostrea virginica) is a popular seafood for its delicacy and high nutritional value. Based on increasing concern about contamination of bacterial pathogens in raw oyster, my research objectives have been focused on detection and enumeration of two important …
The Fishery Performance Indicator (FPI) and production analysis are used to asses and evaluate the impacts of a partial ban on performance of the Cantrang -a modified Danish seine that targets demersal species and squid- in the Java Sea. The goal of the ban was to limit ecologic…
The rate of protein growth, synthesis, RNA/protein ratios, RNA activity and protein content in the whole body and specific tissue of five economically important fish species were investigated under a variety of conditions known to affect both the growth and synthesis rate. These…
Barnacles (Cirripedia) are crustaceans, with sessile adult forms that are permanently attached to hard substrata or to other living organisms. They are adjusted to various lifestyles, from parasites of decapod crustaceans to free-living groups. As cosmopolite animals, barnacles …
This thesis examines the role of a diversity of drivers on the development of institutions at three case study sites encompassing different management strategies of rice-fish floodplain systems. Objectives of the study were to document drivers of change and institutional respons…
Globalization of the agro-food system has led developing nations to orient their production to meet global markets. Consequently, local agricultural systems are increasingly linked to global commodity networks, and generate complex intersections and sometimes tensions. Cultured …
Coral reefs, one of the most productive and diverse ecosystems on earth, not only protect adjacent costal areas from erosion, but also serve as an economical assess for human populations, providing as well a major source of protein to hundreds of million of people. Anthropogenic…
En milieu marin, l'appréhension et la maîtrise des échelles de variation spatiale et temporelle représentent une condition indispensable à la compréhension de la dynamique et de la structure des populations. Dans les systèmes d'archipels, ces processus sont influencés par des in…
"Ocean Pollution provides a unique look at the effects of estuarine and coastal pollution on resource species. One of the primary objectives of the book is to provide an accurate assessment of the state of the inshore marine environment and its inhabitants. Coastal habitat degra…
