Conflicts caused by reintroduced native species are increasing; however, there is a knowledge gap concerning ecological knowledge and perception of local community members regarding the impact of these species on local ecosystem services and livelihoods. We studied local knowledge about beavers and ...
Environmental DNA (eDNA) analysis has gained traction as a precise and cost-effective method for species and waterways management. To date, publications on eDNA protocol optimization have focused primarily on DNA yield. Therefore, it has not been possible to evaluate the cost and speed of specific components ...
Loaches are widely distributed throughout the natural environment and are consumed for medicinal purposes in East Asia. Usually, loaches are cultured in ponds where the water conditions can easily cause bacterial infections. Infections due to bacterial pathogens such as Aeromonas have been well described ...
Abstract As they interact with their environment and encounter challenges, animals adjust their behavior on a moment-to-moment basis to maintain task fitness. This dynamic process of adaptive motor control occurs in the nervous system, but an understanding of the biomechanics of the body is essential ...
Due to climate change, numerous ice bodies have been lost in the West Antarctic Peninsula (WAP). As a consequence, deglaciation is expected to impact the marine environment and its biota at physiological and ecosystem levels. Nuculana inaequisculpta is a marine bivalve widely distributed around Antarctica ...
Deep-sea ecological monitoring is increasingly recognized as indispensable for the comprehension of the largest biome on Earth, but at the same time it is subjected to growing human impacts for the exploitation of biotic and abiotic resources. Here, we present the Naples Ecological REsearch (NEREA) ...
La natura mobile dell'attività di pesca comporta relazioni spaziali dinamiche, interdipendenze tra comunità costiere e zone di pesca tracciate dal movimento dei pescherecci. L’analisi di tali relazioni spaziali è essenziale per distribuire l'impatto socioeconomico dell'attività di pesca nelle comunità ...
Shellfish farming is a relevant economic activity in Italy. The Gulf of La Spezia is one of the major production areas for mussels: the area is characterized by the presence of numerous human activities that could harm the quality of seawater. Additionally, the presence of potentially pathogenic microorganisms ...
The invention discloses a display device with an adjustable visual angle, which comprises a base seat, wherein one end of a multi-connecting rod type device is arranged on the base seat, the other end of the multi-connecting rod type device is provided with a display device, the aging problem of a snakeskin ...
A life jacket vest including a life jacket member having a pair of arm openings and a lining having a pair of sleeve members and a perimeter. The lining is positioned in mating relationship with at least a portion of the life jacket member and is attached along at least a portion of the perimeter of ...
The invention relates to a glove (10) with a textile glove part (12), in particular a knitted or woven glove part (12), the glove part (12) having an inside and an outside, and at least one protector element (14). It is characterized in that the protector element (14) is arranged on the inside of the ...
The described invention relates to an ambidextrous working glove having fish scale-textured inner and outer surfaces and methods of making same. [Image Omitted]
An autonomous lifebuoy comprising of a body (1), a power supply unit (5) consisting of water-activated electric batteries and water propellers (2) which use the camera image of the closest smartphone to direct the lifebuoy towards the MOB. The Control unit (3) connects to the local area network and ...
The present invention relates generally to lighting systems employed in outboard motors used as marine propulsion systems, and to marine vessel assemblies employing outboard motors with such lighting systems, and related methods of operation and implementation. In one example embodiment of a lighting ...
A radar system (1) comprising: a transmitting antenna comprising a plurality of linear arrays (tl-t4) of transmitting antenna elements (20) arranged on a generatrix of a truncated cone or on a cylindrical surface; a signal generator block (2) operatively connected to the transmitting antenna and adapted ...
Abstract Identification of stocks and quantification of their relative contribution to recruitment are major objectives toward improving the management and conservation of marine exploited species. Next‐generation sequencing allows for thousands of genomic markers to be analyzed, which provides the ...
Ocean acidification (OA) and warming seas are significant concerns for coastal systems and species. The Atlantic longfin squid, Doryteuthis pealeii, a core component of the Northwest Atlantic trophic web, has demonstrated impacts, such as reduced growth and delayed development, under high chronic exposure ...
Baseline knowledge of spatial and temporal distribution patterns is essential for cetacean management and conservation. Such knowledge is particularly important in areas where gillnet fishing occurs, as the Upper Gulf of California, which increases the probability of bycatch of cetaceans. In this area, ...
Loss of biodiversity from lower to upper trophic levels reduces overall productivity and stability of coastal ecosystems in our oceans, but rarely are these changes documented across both time and space. The characterisation of environmental DNA (eDNA) from sediment and seawater using metabarcoding ...
Bitumen has been identified for the first time in Egyptian occupied Nubia, from within the town of Amara West, occupied from around 1300 to 1050 BC. The bitumen can be sourced to the Dead Sea using biomarkers, evidencing a trade in this material from the eastern Mediterranean to Nubia in the New Kingdom ...
