Abstract Background Acoustic telemetry has become a fundamental tool to monitor the movement of aquatic species. Advances in technology, particular development batteries with lives > 10 years, have increased our ability track long-term patterns many However, logistics and financial constraints often dictate locations deployment duration acoustic receivers. Consequently, there is compromise between optimal array design affordability. Such can hinder marine animals over large spatial...
Abstract The presence of focal collections lymphocytes within the thyroid gland has been associated with autoimmune thyroiditis. In a prospective study 197 glands were examined from post mortems performed in two Southampton hospitals over 12 month period. mean mass was 19·5 g women and 22·2 men. Varying degrees lymphocytic thyroiditis present 54 per cent 24 Morphometry showed that on average less than 4 infiltrated by lymphocytes. There no significant relationship age. A possible association...
The effect of environmental variables on blue shark Prionace glauca catch per unit effort ( CPUE ) in a recreational fishery the western English Channel, between June and September 1998–2011, was quantified using generalized additive models GAMs ). Sea surface temperature SST explained 1·4% GAM deviance, highest occurred at 16·7° C, reflecting optimal thermal preferences this species. Surface chlorophyll concentration CHL significantly affected caused 27·5% deviance. Additionally, increasing...
Abstract Spinocerebellar ataxias form a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of neurodegenerative disorders characterized by progressive cerebellar ataxia. Their prevalence varies among populations ethnicities. ataxia 36 is caused GGCCTG repeat expansion in the first intron NOP56 gene late-onset ataxia, sensorineural hearing loss upper lower motor neuron signs, including tongue fasciculations. has been described mainly East Asian Western European patients was thought to be absent...
Shark depredation, whereby hooked fish are partially or completely consumed before they can be retrieved, occurs globally in commercial and recreational fisheries. Depredation damage fishing gear, injure sharks, cause additional mortality to targeted species result economic losses fishers. Knowledge of the mechanisms behind depredation is limited. We used a 13 yr dataset fishery-dependent daily logbook data for Mackerel Managed Fishery Western Australia, which covers 15° latitude 10000 km...
The volume of the olfactory bulbs (OBs) relative to brain has been used previously as a proxy for capabilities in many vertebrate taxa, including fishes. Although this gross approach predictive power, more accurate assessment number afferent inputs and convergence information at level telencephalon is critical our understanding role olfaction behaviour In study, we transmission electron microscopy assess first-order axons within nerve (ON) second-order peduncle (OP) established model species...
Drones enable the monitoring for sharks in real-time, enhancing safety of ocean users with minimal impact on marine life. Yet, effectiveness drones detecting (especially potentially dangerous sharks; i.e., white shark, tiger bull shark) has not yet been tested at Queensland beaches. To determine effectiveness, it is necessary to understand how environmental and operational factors affect ability detect sharks. assess this, we utilised data from SharkSmart drone trial, which operated five...
Abstract Fisher-shark conflict is occurring at Lord Howe Island, Australia due to high levels of Galapagos shark ( Carcharhinus galapagensis ) depredation (where sharks consume hooked fish) and bycatch. Depredation causes costly loss target catch fishing gear increased mortality species, can be injured or killed when bycaught. This study applied acoustic telemetry vessel tracking from 2018 2021 identify; (1) how the movements 30 tagged activity six vessels overlapped, (2) where key...
Abstract Tag-recapture programs to monitor the movements of fish populations are among some longest-running citizen-science datasets date. Here, using half a century yellowtail kingfish ( Seriola lalandi, Carangidae) tag-recapture data collected through projects, we report novel insights into population connectivity in Australia and New Zealand (NZ). Despite importance commercial recreational fisheries, substantial knowledge gaps about their stock structure between jurisdictions hinder...
The black jewfish ( Protonibea diacanthus ) occurs in tropical coastal waters throughout the central Indo‐Pacific. It has long been valued as an important recreational and artisanal fishery species but become increasingly targeted by commercial fisheries due to demand for its large swim bladder. To better understand how changes fishing pressure may impact sustainable exploitation of P. populations Eastern Australia, we evaluated reproductive biology across two management regions Central...
Context Coastal beach environments provide habitats for marine megafauna, including turtles, rays, mammals and sharks. However, accessing these variable energy zones has been difficult researchers by using traditional methods. Aims This study used drone-based aerial surveys to assess spatio-temporal variation of megafauna across south-eastern Queensland, Australia. Methods Drones were operated at five Queensland beaches. Megafauna sightings key variables location, month turbidity analysed...
