Yaquina Bay, Oregon, has been introduced to a few The invasive species in Yaquina Bay, Oregon can have a huge effect on the native species and local ecosystem. European green crab (Carcius maenas) is an invasive species. The European green crab can be found on the mudflats competing with the...
While the importance of international trade in fish products has long been recognized, international trade in fishing services (TIFS), involving harvesting, processing, transportation and marketing has received but little attention. Yet, one half of the world’s EEZs involve foreign fishing arrangements, resulting in such trade. The World Bank report, Trade...
The evidence of the destructive economic and biological consequences of “bad” fisheries subsidies is now all but overwhelming. Yet still these subsidies persist, in spite of the evidence. This paper looks at ways of escaping the fisheries subsidies trap, by pursuing and developing a theme, which this author first put...
In Tanzania, the overall objective of the National Fisheries Policy is to develop a robust, competitive and efficient fisheries sector that contributes to food security, nutrition, growth of the national economy and improvement of the wellbeing of fisheries stakeholders. The overall goal of fisheries management is to produce sustainable biological,...
Cystic ovarian disease (COD) is one of the main causes of infertility in dairy cattle and has a high economic impact on farmers. COD is caused by an endocrine imbalance within the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis which prevents the mature Graafian follicle from ovulating. The cause at the molecular level is not...
Warm, high pressure systems are measured from a weather station on a high elevation peak in the Oregon Coast range during the winter months. Temperature observations on Mary’s Peak show abnormally warm air in relation to the surrounding areas. The goal of this study was to characterize the frequency and...
Throughout Cane, a colon is representative of both characters’ thought and dialogue in a quasidrama technique that perpetuates the idea of a staged performance (Foley 233). Through this form, Cane encapsulates the non-authentic expression that African Americans were subjected to by a means of acting and/or pretending in fear of...
Self-management has been recognized as important in successfully governing the common pool resources. This is no exception in fishery. Fishery cooperatives, where fishermen collectively manage the fishery, are garnering much attention from both regulators and academics. In this study, we aim to empirically disentangle the efficiency mechanism of pooling system....
We empirically estimate the effects on management outcomes in common-pool resource
management into three: the direct effect of management systems, the direct effect of social
capital, and the indirect effect of management systems and social capital interacting each other to influence the outcomes. In particular, we focus on revenue sharing...
To model the behavior of the spring run Chinook salmon, we expanded the current dataset of salmon counts at the Winchester Dam, Winchester, Oregon, to include historical data from 1991 through 1997. These counts were used to identify Chinook salmon behavior that resulted in defining preferable water conditions during their...
Jimmy Corrigan is a work steeped in what it means to live in the United States as a capitalist nation. Within the novel, the United States presents itself as a grand world power through events such as the Chicago World Exposition. In direct contrast, individuals in the work are anything...
A better understanding of the distribution and spawning behavior of Crangon shrimp and their relationship with their predators, including the green sturgeon, Acipenser medirostris, is an important step toward the larger goal to understand food webs of the nearshore continental shelf of the northeastern Pacific. Here, I examined how the...
One of the most important issues discussed in Nigeria today is that of women participation in agricultural development. This is because of the important role played by them in national
development and most needs of any developing nation of the world today. This study focused and examined gender inequalities issues...
Ecolabelling has become an essential component of the global sustainable seafood trade. The MSC is currently the world leader in certification and ecolabelling programs for wild capture fisheries. While the environmental benefits of certification have been widely recognised, its economic benefits are often anecdotal or unknown. The South African hake...
Fusarium solani is a chronic disease that causes root rot which affects bean production worldwide. Recently, a QTL map was generated which identified several SNPs which were found to be associated with resistance to the pathogen. To be useful in a breeding program, INDELs must be identified which co-seggregate with...
The production and distribution of fish products in Vietnam have been faced with strict consumer requirements such as seafood quality, hygiene, safety standards, traceability, environmentally friendly manufacturing and fisheries resource conservation. These are compulsory requirements for sustainable business development in international markets. The research applies the Structure – Conduct –...
After 16 years under a limited access program with effort controls, the New England groundfish fishery transitioned to a catch share management system in 2010. For much of its earlier management history issues related to fishing capacity were paramount as effort controls were increasingly restrictive to meet biological objectives. As...
The study compared fresh fish and smoked fish marketing in Adamawa state. Primary data were collected with the aid of well-structured questionnaires from marketers in 13 major fish markets in seven local government area of Adamawa state. Findings from the study revealed that majority of the fish sellers were female...
