The need for management of the marine ecosystem using a broad perspective has been recommended under a variety of names. This paper uses the term Ecosystem Management, which is seen as a convergence between the ecological idea of an organisational hierarchy and the idea of strategic planning with a planning...
Ecosystem externalities arise when one use of an ecosystem affects its other uses through the production functions of the ecosystem. We use simulations from a size-spectrum ecosystem model to investigate the ecosystem externality created by fishing of multiple species. The model is based upon general ecological principles and is calibrated...
This study applied brand choice model and stated preference data collected in French context by means of choice experiment to investigate value of intrinsic and extrinsic attributes of various fresh seafood species. The estimated models show that the extrinsic attributes (i.e. product forms, production method, and product origin) and intrinsic...
Demand structure and market segmentation for seafood have been investigated intensively. However, most the researches so far applied traditional demand analysis and descriptive segmentation approach by separated models. The traditional demand analysis assuming consumer homogeneity, behavior consistence, and using aggregate data may result biased estimation, while the segmentation based on...
A variety of macromolecules labeled with FITC (fluorescein isothiocyanate), including
carbohydrates (dextran) and proteins (ferritin, casein, albumin, concavalin A), spanning a range of
molecular weights from 55 to 2000 kD, were actively ingested by marine heterotrophic flagellates at
substrate concentrations of 1 to 10 mg/L. The uptake capacity for the...
For decades, the bio-duck sound has been recorded in the Southern Ocean,
but the animal producing it has remained a mystery. Heard mainly during
austral winter in the Southern Ocean, this ubiquitous sound has been
recorded in Antarctic waters and contemporaneously off the Australian
west coast. Here, we present conclusive...
