Laboratory Fish in Biomedical Research
Author: Livia D'AngeloPublisher: Academic Press
ISBN: 0128212454
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 476
Book Description
Fish, and particularly zebrafish, have become the fastest-growing segment of the research population. They offer several advantages, in terms of biology and technologies to apply, and thus are employed in numerous research fields. Laboratory Fish in Biomedical Research: Biology, Husbandry and Research Applications for Zebrafish, Medaka, Killifish, Swordtail Fish, Cavefish, Stickleback, Goldfish and Danionella Translucida addresses the relevant and increasing need to collect cutting-edge knowledge on husbandry, maintenance, welfare and experimental protocols of the most common freshwater species under standard laboratory conditions. - Provides husbandry and management protocols, devices and water systems - Shows strength and weakness of breeding - Explores potential scientific applications and experimental protocols. with regards to the most used freshwater fish used for scientific purposes
MARINE ARTIFICIAL REEF RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
Author: Reef Fish Spawning Aggregations: Biology, Research and Management
Author: Yvonne Sadovy de MitchesonPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9400719809
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 639
Book Description
Reef fish spawning aggregations, ranging from small groups to many tens of thousands of individuals, are spectacular but poorly known natural phenomena whereby fish assemble at specific times and locations to spawn. For some species these large groups may be the only form of reproduction, the high fish numbers briefly giving a false impression of stability and abundance—an ‘illusion of plenty’. They are often a focus for intensive seasonal fishing because of their predictability and because many important commercial fishes form them. Highly vulnerable to overexploitation, many aggregations and their associated fisheries, have disappeared or are in decline. Few are effectively managed or incorporated into protected areas. Aggregations are not well understood by fishery scientists, managers and conservationists and their significance little appreciated by fishers or the wider public. To ensure their persistence to replenish important fisheries in coral ecosystems, maintain their ecosystem function and continue to delight divers, a significant change in perspective is needed to foster protection and management. This book provides comprehensive and practical coverage of the biology, study and management of reef fish aggregations, exploring their how, when, where, and why. It explores ways to better protect, study, manage and conserve them, while identifying key data gaps and questions. The text is extensively illustrated with many unique, never before published, photographs and graphics. Case studies on over 20 interesting and important fishes are included, outlining their biology and fisheries and highlighting major concerns and challenges.
Global Atlas of Marine Fisheries
Author: Daniel PaulyPublisher: Island Press
ISBN: 1610917693
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 519
Book Description
The Global Atlas of Marine Fisheries is the first and only book to provide accurate, country-by-country fishery catch data. This groundbreaking information has been gathered from independent sources by the world's foremost fisheries experts. Edited by Daniel Pauly and Dirk Zeller of the Sea Around Us Project, the Atlas includes one-page reports on 273 countries and their territories, plus fourteen topical global chapters. Each national report describes the current state of the country's fishery; the policies, politics, and social factors affecting it; and potential solutions. The global chapters address cross-cutting issues, from the economics of fisheries to the impacts of mariculture. Extensive maps and graphics offer attractive and accessible visual representations.

The Ownership and Management of Fishery Research Vessels
Author: G. C. EddiePublisher: Food & Agriculture Org.
ISBN: 9789251013748
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 60
Book Description
The very high costs of owning fishery research vessels make it especially desirable to ensure that value is obtained for the money spent, in terms of sea time achieved and information produced. The authorities who own and manage such vessels face a number of peculiar problems in their design, procurement and operation which may not be easily solved by applying normal administrative principles and procedures. Factors affecting vessel availability and utilization, such as crew incentives and financial control of normal maintenance, are discussed, together with safety, insurance, legal matters, sale of catches and other methods open to the fisheries authorities for acquiring information and experience that do not involve the ownership of a specialized research vessel.
