The Center for the Integrated Modeling and Analysis of the Gulf Ecosystem I and II (C-IMAGE I and II) are two of fourteen centers funded by the Gulf of Mexico Research Initiative (GoMRI) investigating the shortand long-term impacts of submarine oil spills on the Gulf of Mexico Ecosystem. C-IMAGE researchers ...
Bleaching episodes caused by increasing seawater temperatures may induce mass coral mortality and are regarded as one of the biggest threats to coral reef ecosystems worldwide. The current consensus is that this phenomenon results from enhanced production of harmful reactive oxygen species (ROS) that ...
Objective The bacterium Oceanimonas sp. (O. sp.) GK1 is a member of the Aeromonadaceae family and its genome represents several virulence genes involved in fish and human pathogenicity. In this original research study we aimed to identify and characterize the putative virulence factors and pathogenicity ...
This study examines the groundwater quality in wells situated near agricultural fields in Saudi Arabia. Fruits (e.g., tomato and green pepper) irrigated with groundwater were also assessed for the occurrence of opportunistic pathogens to determine if food safety was compromised by the groundwater. The ...
The use of wastewater and excreta in agriculture is a common practice in Southeast Asia; however, concerns remain about the potential public health risks of this practice. We undertook a scoping review to examine the extent, range, and nature of literature, as well as synthesize the evidence for associations ...
The final effluents of two wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) in the Eastern Cape Province of South Africa were evaluated for their physicochemical and microbiological qualities over a period of 12 months. The physicochemical parameters assessed ranged as follows both plants. The ranges of values for ...
The grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idellus) is an important species in freshwater aquaculture both in China and on a global scale. Variety degeneration and frequent diseases have limited the further development of grass carp aquaculture. Thus, new and improved varieties are required. Here, we identified ...
Abstract Even though aluminum is the third most common element present in the earth's crust, information regarding its toxicity remains scarce. It is known that in certain cases, aluminum is neurotoxic, but its effect in other tissues is unknown. The aim of this work was to analyze the genotoxic potential ...
The present study investigates the effects of different routes of inulin administration as prebiotic on gut microbiota and survival rate of Indian white shrimp post-larvae. Four hundred and fifty Indian white shrimp post-larvae (PL1) were stocked in nine tanks. The tanks were assigned into three treatments: ...
Aim: This work was aimed to document the antiviral activates of Spirulina platensis extract against foot and mouth disease virus (FMDV) different types to evaluate its replication in Baby Hamster Kidney (BHK) cell culture and in baby mice. Materials and Methods: Cytotoxicity assay studied for S. ...
One approach to the management of common fish diseases in aquaculture is the use of antibiotic-laden feed. However, there are public concerns about the use of antibiotics in agriculture and the potential development of antibiotic resistant bacteria. Therefore, the discovery of other environmentally ...
The paper presents a mathematical model of optimal fleet number of fishing vessels. Here we consider two aspects related to the vessels and to the fish stock to which the vessels are used to exploit to. The first aspect is the availability/reliability of the vessels. The fishing vessels are vital equipment ...
In this paper, we propose an ICT application of real-time monitoring system to estimate the catch amount within set-net. Generally, set-net fishermen do not know the catch amount in advance before arriving to set-net area, in which they tend to unable to perform the fishing operation effectively. It ...
Defining pelagic habitat indicators for migratory fish is particularly interesting and challenging due to the complex interaction between the marine food web and the physical variability. Through a multidisciplinary study, a group of experts in marine ecology, physical oceanography and stock assessment ...
Background In 2003 mean cord blood mercury concentrations in pregnant Bermudian women exceeded levels associated with adverse health outcomes in children. The principal mercury source was local fish species. Public health messages were developed suggesting pregnant women reduce consumption of fish ...
In this paper, we propose a new approach to squid fishing that makes use of shared information. A typical squid fishing vessel is outfitted with 10 or more automatic squid jiggers lined along both sides of the vessel and controlled from the wheelhouse via a single control panel. All of the jiggers are ...
Mariners such as captains and navigation officers memorize unique situations in their experience and make use of them in the ship handling of subsequent voyages to achieve safety. On the other hand, by a detailed investigation and inquiry of one or more examples, existence and causes of problems can ...
The US Arctic and sub-Arctic regions are rapidly changing, creating potentially large impacts to marine ecosystems and ecosystem services. However, much of the current observing technology is ill suited to fully quantify these dynamic changes. The harsh, remote environment, expansive area, and extremely ...
This paper presents the design and implementation of a ROV-based acquisition system designed for water quality monitoring through the acquisition of oceanographic parameters of Peruvian water resources such as rivers, lakes and oceans. The robotic platform integrates a video camera, a multi-parameter ...
Satellite Automatic Identification System (AIS) technology has fundamentally changed the landscape for monitoring the maritime domain. Improving upon existing AIS technology already deployed aboard all large vessels and many smaller vessels around the globe, satellite AIS is truly revolutionary in providing ...
