Biodiversity Monitoring Data and an Analytic Hierarchy Process to Map Sensitive Biodiversity Values and Ecosystem Services in a Tropical Rainforest

Abstract The Pluspetrol Camisea Biodiversity Monitoring Program (BMP) has been collecting data on the distribution and status of species of flora and fauna and provisioning ecosystem services within the 247,000 ha upstream area of influence since 2005. In order to synthesize, integrate and map a complex, ...

Advancing Country SDG Impacts

Abstract Since the launch of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in 2015, countries around the world have begun to consider how to achieve the 17 Goals. In order to do so, it will be essential to have the support of other actors from both the private sector and civil society. So in turn, companies ...

Alternatives to Nekton Cruise: A Step in the Collective Construction of Knowledge

Abstract Exploratory offshore drilling projects are under constant challenge to be competitive, efficient, and to contribute to ecosystem sustainability. At the same time, they attract development and investment, as well as tending to strengthen the communities they relate to. One of the main challenges ...

Marine Mammal Biodiversity Around Oil and Gas Platforms - Challenges and Successes of Long-Term Monitoring

Abstract Monitoring, understanding, and communicating the impact of offshore oil and gas exploration and production (E&P) activities on marine mammal (MM) biodiversity can be challenging. Here, we share methods, results, and experiences accumulated during seven years of monitoring MM and underwater ...

Entrepreneurship, Intrapreneurship and Interpre-neurship in a world of Future Wireless Technology and Advanced Multi Business Model Innovation

The purpose of this paper is to investigate entrepreneurship, intrapreneurship and interpreneurship in a future world of wireless technology and advanced Multi Business Model innovation. On behalf of a Multibusiness Model framework to classify and measure Multi Business Model Innovation of six different ...

Toward Sustainable Environmental Quality: Priority Research Questions for Asia

Abstract Environmental and human health challenges are pronounced in Asia, an exceptionally diverse and complex region where influences of global megatrends are extensive and numerous stresses to environmental quality exist. Identifying priorities necessary to engage grand challenges can be facilitated ...

The Effects of Ozone on Atlantic Salmon Post-Smolt in Brackish Water—Establishing Welfare Indicators and Thresholds

Ozone is a strong oxidant, and its use in aquaculture has been shown to improve water quality and fish health. At present, it is predominantly used in freshwater systems due to the high risk of toxic residual oxidant exposure in brackish water and seawater. Here, we report the effects of ozone on Atlantic ...

Effects of different feeding frequency on Siamese fighting fish (Betta splenden) and Guppy (Poecilia reticulata) Juveniles: Data on growth performance and survival rate

Optimal feeding frequency in aquaculture is vital for the sustainable and economical production of healthy, high-quality fish. This article described the growth performance and survival rate data in the juvenile phase of two commercially important ornamental fish species; Betta splendens (Siamese fighting ...

Vitamin Bullets. Microencapsulated Feeds to Fortify Shellfish and Tackle Human Nutrient Deficiencies

Over two billion people worldwide are micronutrient deficient, with regionally specific deficiencies. Fortification of food with micronutrients has become an industry standard for enhancing public health. Bivalve shellfish (e.g., oysters, clams, and mussels) provide the most sustainable source of animal ...

Quantifying local ecological knowledge to model historical abundance of long-lived, heavily-exploited fauna

Deriving robust historical population trends for long-lived species subject to human exploitation is challenging in scenarios where long-term scientific data are scarce or unavailable, as often occurs for species affected by small-scale fisheries and subsistence hunting. The importance of Local Ecological ...

Structure and co-occurrence patterns of bacterial communities associated with white faeces disease outbreaks in Pacific white-leg shrimp Penaeus vannamei aquaculture

Bacterial diseases cause production failures in shrimp aquacultures. To understand environmental conditions and bacterial community dynamics contributing to white faeces disease (WFD) events, we analysed water quality and compared bacterial communities in water as well as in intestines and faeces of ...

Persistence of coastal upwelling after a plunge in upwelling-favourable wind

Unprecedented coastal upwelling off the southern coast of the Korean Peninsula was reported during the summer of 2013. The upwelling continued for more than a month after a plunge in upwelling-favourable winds and had serious impacts on fisheries. This is a rare phenomenon, as most coastal upwelling ...

Performance Standards for Oil Spill Risk

Abstract Oil spill risk assessments are carried out in different ways, depending on the background for and the purpose of the analysis. One reason for these differences is the fact that oil spill risk assessment is a discipline at the interface between the technical/statistical analysis in Quantitative ...

Methodological Alternative to Oceanographic Cruises for the Characterization of the Nekton in the Colombian Caribbean

Abstract The objective of this paper is to develop a new methodological approach to evaluate and understand the variations in richness, abundance, geographical and bathymetric distribution of nektonic resources in the Colombian Caribbean. The methodology generates a constant recording and monitoring ...

Mathematical and computational approaches for stochastic control of river environment and ecology: from fisheries viewpoint

We present a modern stochastic control framework for dynamic optimization of river environment and ecology. We focus on a fisheries problem in Japan, and show several examples of simplified optimal control problems of stochastic differential equations modeling fishery resource dynamics, reservoir water ...

Development of a WebGIS Tool for Rapid Screening and Visualisation of Biodiversity and Sensitive Areas in the Gulf of Mexico

Abstract Remote sensing technologies and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) can assist the rapid, cost-effective identification of biodiversity and environmentally sensitive areas in offshore and onshore environments. This information, visually represented through a WebGIS (web-based GIS) as interactive ...

Large‐scale connectivity, cryptic population structure, and relatedness in Eastern Pacific Olive ridley sea turtles (Lepidochelys olivacea)

Abstract Endangered species are grouped into genetically discrete populations to direct conservation efforts. Mitochondrial control region (mtCR) haplotypes are used to elucidate deep divergences between populations, as compared to nuclear microsatellites that can detect recent structuring. When prior ...

Research Strategies to Develop Environmentally Friendly Marine Antifouling Coatings

There are a large number of fouling organisms in the ocean, which easily attach to the surface of ships, oil platforms and breeding facilities, corrode the surface of equipment, accelerate the aging of equipment, affect the stability and safety of marine facilities and cause serious economic losses. ...

Ecological Risk Assessment of Heavy Metals along Three Main Drains in Nile Delta and Potential Phytoremediation by Macrophyte Plants

The use of drainage water in the irrigation of agroecosystem is associated with environmental hazards, and can pose threats to human health. Nine heavy metals (Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu, Co, Cr, Ni, Cd and Pb) along three main drains in the middle Nile Delta were measures in the sediments, roots and shoots of ...

Productive Results, Oxidative Stress and Contaminant Markers in European Sea Bass: Conventional vs. Organic Feeding

Simple Summary Over the years, aquaculture moved to organic production given the rising interest of consumers towards healthy and ecologically friendly food. Among the cultured species, European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) is one of the leading farmed fish products in the Mediterranean area and ...
