A method of controlling a propulsion system (20) on a marine vessel (10) includes receiving proximity measurements (90) describing locations of one or more objects (O) with respect to the marine vessel (10), receiving a command vector Js⇀. [Image Omitted] instructing magnitude and direction for propulsion ...
A knit fabric, protective sleeve and glove constructed therefrom has three knit layers knit constructed and knit to one another in a single knitting operation to provide the fabric as a single piece of knit material. The fabric includes an outer layer, an inner layer and an intermediate layer sandwiched ...
An embodiment rotorcraft structure includes a step disposed at an exterior of the rotorcraft, and an emergency kit installed into the recess of the step. The step is faired into a skin on the exterior of the rotorcraft. The emergency kit includes a container and a life raft. The container includes a ...
Environmental pollution in the aquatic environment poses a threat to the immune system of benthic organisms. The Macrophthalmus japonicus crab, which inhabits tidal flat sediments, is a marine invertebrate that provides nutrient and organic matter cycling as a means of purification. Here, we characterized ...
Abstract The study of local adaptation in the presence of ongoing gene flow is the study of natural selection in action, revealing the functional genetic diversity most relevant to contemporary pressures. In addition to individual genes, genome‐wide architecture can itself evolve to enable adaptation. ...
The seasonal polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) variability was studied in the estuaries of the Partizanskaya River and the Tumen River, the largest transboundary river of the Sea of Japan. The PAH levels were generally low over the year; however, the PAH concentrations increased according to one ...
Abstract Operators around the world are reviewing their aging assets, and are coming to clench with the reality that some offshore fields are no longer economically viable. The North Sea and the Gulf of Mexico have seen numbers of decommissioning activities. In other regions, decommissioning activities ...
Marine plastic debris is widely recognized as a global environmental issue. Sun-micron plastic particles, with an upper size limit of 20 um, have been identified as having the highest potential for causing damage to marine ecosystems. Having accurate methods for quantifying the abundance of such particles ...
Aquaculture represents a major part of the world’s food supply. This area of food production is developing rapidly, and as such the tools and analytical techniques used to monitor and assess the quality of fish need to also develop and improve. The use of spatially off-set Raman spectroscopy (SORS) ...
Declines in animal body sizes are widely reported and likely impact ecological interactions and ecosystem services. For harvested species subject to multiple stressors, limited understanding of the causes and consequences of size declines impedes prediction, prevention, and mitigation. We highlight ...
A method (110) for monitoring at least one aquaculture pond (112) is proposed. The method (110) comprises: a) monitoring at least one aerial parameter of use of the at least one aquaculture pond (112); b) determining a temporal development of the aerial parameter of use; and c) determining an intensity ...
Aeroponics apparatus is disclosed, which includes a grow bed tray (2) having a base and at least two side-walls, the grow bed tray being able to hold a plant support at a position spaced from the base of the grow bed tray, and a nebulizer (20) for nebulizing nutrient solution, the nebulizer located ...
[Problem] To provide a fish egg processing apparatus capable of performing predetermined processing on fertilized eggs with higher efficiency, and collecting proper fish eggs. [Solution] When a housing recess that houses fish eggs one by one is conveyed to a predetermined processing position, and ...
The invention relates to a wire netting system, in particular a safety netting system, comprising at least two intermeshing netting elements (10a-g), at least one netting element (10a-g) being produced from at least one individual wire, a wire bundle, a wire strand, a wire rope and/or any other longitudinal ...
Described herein are polymer compositions including a polyamide blend and glass fibers. The polyamide blends include an aliphatic polyamide and a semi-aromatic polyamide. The aliphatic polyamide is obtained by a ring-opening polymerization. It was surprisingly discovered that the polymer compositions ...
The present invention provides a bite indicator (10) having a housing (20) , a wheel (12) mounted on the housing (20) to rotate freely about an axle (14) , a surface (22) on the housing (20) for supporting a fishing rod in a position in which a line of the fishing rod makes contact with the wheel (12) ...
Mugil incilis (lisa) is an important commercial fish species in many countries, living along the coasts of the western Atlantic Ocean. It has been used as a model organism for environmental monitoring and ecotoxicological investigations. Nevertheless, available genomic and transcriptomic information ...
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are small, usually cationic, and amphiphilic molecules that play a crucial role in molecular and cellular host defense against pathogens, tissue damage, and infection. AMPs are present in all metazoans and several have been discovered in teleosts. Some teleosts, such as ...
Simple Summary The growing interest in sturgeon aquaculture necessitates the constant development of rearing techniques with special emphasis on the maintenance of high fish reproduction performance. However, there is a substantial lack of knowledge regarding gonadal impairments in sturgeons, even ...
Abstract The southern lesser pomfret (Pampus minor) is an economically important fish, and its numbers are declining because of overfishing and environmental pollution. In addition, owing to the similarities of its external morphological characteristics to other species in the genus Pampus, it is often ...
