Experiments were done to determine if ammonium, phosphate and feeding on Artemia nauplii affected the population density of symbiotic algae (zooxanthellae) in Red Sea coral Stylophora pistillata . Corals incubated for 14 days under natural sunlight at reduced intensity running seawater aquaria. The was continuously spiked give final concentrations either 20 μM ammonium or 2 phosphate, both. A second set similarly treated corals also fed daily. Population zooxanthellae with plus approximately...
The representation of the Northern Hemisphere (NH) storm tracks and jet streams their response to climate change have been evaluated in model simulations from Phases 3, 5, 6 Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP3, CMIP5, CMIP6, respectively). spatial patterns multimodel biases CMIP3, CMIP6 are similar; however, magnitudes models substantially lower. For instance, mean RMSE North Atlantic track for (as measured by time-filtered sea-level pressure variance) is over 50% smaller than that...

We review the status of marine shellfish ecosystems formed primarily by bivalves in Australia, including: identifying ecosystem-forming species, assessing their historical and current extent, causes for decline past present management. Fourteen species were identified as developing complex, three-dimensional reef or bed intertidal subtidal areas across tropical, subtropical temperate Australia. A dramatic extent condition Australia's two most common ecosystems, developed Saccostrea glomerata...
In recent years, the total quantity of abalone produced on farms worldwide has increased significantly while fisheries have declined. Fishery production was almost 20,000 metric tons (mt) in 1970s but only about 6,500 mt 2015. Over same period, farm from negligible quantities to 129,287 2015, majority being China and South Korea. Illegal exploitation, particularly Africa, Australia, New Zealand, is still a major problem. Prices world market fell during Global Financial Crisis, now appear be...
In recent years, abalone fisheries around the world have shown similar trends, with landings rapidly increasing and then falling as stocks were overfished. A rapid increase in illegal exploitation of has contributed to population crashes and, sometimes, complete decommercialization fishing industries. Concurrently, however, there been a farming some extent, farm production helped ensure that overall relationship between supply demand not changed too much from what existed during 1970s. What...
Global fish production continues to outpace world population growth, and aquaculture remains one of the fastest-growing food producing sectors. In 2012, global was 90.4 million tonnes. Although, in terms tonnage, abalone contributes a relatively small proportion this production, it is most highly prized seafood delicacies and, therefore, value very important many countries. The total volume worldwide fisheries has declined since 1970’s, but farm increased significantly over past few years. A...
In recent years, the total quantity of abalone produced on farms worldwide has increased significantly, although fisheries have declined. Production from decreased almost 20,000 metric tonnes (mt) in 1970s to only about 6,500 mt 2016/17. Over same period, farm production negligible quantities 160,662 2016/17, vast majority being China (139,697 mt) and South Korea (16,042 mt). Illegal exploitation, particularly Africa, Australia, New Zealand, California, is still a major problem reaching an...
Abstract The Diabatic Influences on Mesoscale Structures in Extratropical Storms (DIAMET) project aims to improve forecasts of high-impact weather extratropical cyclones through field measurements, high-resolution numerical modeling, and improved design ensemble forecasting data assimilation systems. This article introduces DIAMET presents some the first results. Four campaigns were conducted by project, one which, late 2011, coincided with an exceptionally stormy period marked unusually...
This paper presents a review of information presented at the 11th International Abalone Symposium, held in New Zealand February 2023, where representatives from range countries data on abalone production their region. The total quantity produced farms worldwide has increased significantly recent years, whilst fisheries have declined. Production was almost 20,000 mt 1970s but only about 5850 2020/21. Over same period, farm negligible quantities to 243,506 China and South Korea produce largest...
Intercontinental Transport of Ozone and Precursors (ITOP) (part International Consortium for Atmospheric Research on Transformation (ICARTT)) was an intense research effort to measure long‐range transport pollution across the North Atlantic its impact O 3 production. During aircraft campaign plumes were encountered containing large concentrations CO plus other tracers aerosols from forest fires in Alaska Canada. A chemical model, p‐TOMCAT, new biomass burning emissions inventories are used...
This note is concerned with the selection of control parameters to ensure string stability a vehicle convoy system, while satisfying constraints imposed by considerations safety and passenger comfort. Several forms law are investigated, including single multiple look-ahead strategies as well bi-directional control. By considering simple models, typical conditions for achieving collision avoidance jerk limitation, maintaining stability, derived
In Brief Objectives: To compare the situational characteristics of protected and unprotected sexual encounters that involved alcohol use 2 hours prior with ones did not. Methods: Data were collected between December 2002 2005 as part enrollment in a prospective cohort study designed to identify HIV seroconversion risk factors among women bar hotel workers Northern Tanzania. A total 608 (37.3%) who inconsistent condom users asked set-matched questions concerning surrounding their last...
Over the past few years, supplies of abalone from fisheries around world have been gradually declining, whilst farms rapidly increasing. Illegal exploitation is still a problem in many parts world, although there some evidence that countries are taking steps to reduce poaching. The total supply all sources 2010 was about 77,000 mt and this expected increase more than 97,000 by 2012. This largely due increased farm production China. To date, has not had very large effect on markets because...
