Global Biodiversity Target Missed In 2002, the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) committed to a significant reduction in rate of biodiversity loss by 2010. There has been widespread conjecture that this target not met. Butchart et al. (p. 1164 , published online 29 April) analyzed over 30 indicators developed within CBD's framework. These include condition or state (e.g., species numbers, population sizes), pressures deforestation), and responses maintain protected areas) were...
The mean trophic level of the species groups reported in Food and Agricultural Organization global fisheries statistics declined from 1950 to 1994. This reflects a gradual transition landings long-lived, high level, piscivorous bottom fish toward short-lived, low invertebrates planktivorous pelagic fish. effect, also found be occurring inland fisheries, is most pronounced Northern Hemisphere. Fishing down food webs (that is, at lower levels) leads first increasing catches, then phase...
A compilation of values for the exponential coefficient natural mortality (M) is given 175 different stocks fish distributed in 84 species, both freshwater and marine, ranging from polar to tropical waters. Values L∞(LT, cm), W∞(g, fresh weight), K (1/year) T (°C, mean annual water temperature) were attributed each value M, sets plotted such that: 1) log M = −0·2107 − 0·0824 W∞ + 0·6757 0·4627 2) −0·0066 0·279 L∞ 0·6543 0·4634 The multiple correlation coefficients are 0·845, 0·847, while...
Abstract Climate change can impact the pattern of marine biodiversity through changes in species’ distributions. However, global studies on climate impacts ocean have not been performed so far. Our paper aims to investigate patterns such by projecting distributional ranges a sample 1066 exploited fish and invertebrates for 2050 using newly developed dynamic bioclimate envelope model. projections show that may lead numerous local extinction sub‐polar regions, tropics semi‐enclosed seas....
Abstract Previous projection of climate change impacts on global food supply focuses solely production from terrestrial biomes, ignoring the large contribution animal protein marine capture fisheries. Here, we project changes in catch potential for 1066 species exploited fish and invertebrates 2005 to 2055 under scenarios. We show that may lead large‐scale redistribution potential, with an average 30–70% increase high‐latitude regions a drop up 40% tropics. Moreover, maximum declines...
Abstract Fisheries data assembled by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) suggest that global marine fisheries catches increased to 86 million tonnes in 1996, then slightly declined. Here, using a decade-long multinational ‘catch reconstruction’ project covering Exclusive Economic Zones of world’s maritime countries High Seas from 1950 2010, accounting for all fisheries, we identify catch trajectories differing considerably national submitted FAO. We actually peaked at 130 tonnes, has...
Since its development in the early 1980s, mass-balance approach incorporated Ecopath software has been widely used for constructing food-web models of marine and other ecosystems. Generalizations on structure functioning such ecosystems, relevant to issue fisheries impacts, have developed these affected evolution approach. Thus, description average state an ecosystem, using proper, now serves parametrize systems coupled difference differential equations, which are depict changes biomasses...
Adeno-associated virus type 1/sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase was assessed in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 2 study patients with advanced heart failure.Thirty-nine received intracoronary adeno-associated or placebo. Seven efficacy parameters were 4 domains: symptoms (New York Heart Association class, Minnesota Living With Failure Questionnaire), functional status (6-minute walk test, peak maximum oxygen consumption), biomarker (N-terminal prohormone brain...
Standardized diet compositions were derived for 97 species of marine mammals from published accounts stomach contents as well morphological, behavioural and other information. Diet was apportioned among eight categories prey types (benthic invertebrates, large zooplankton, small squids, pelagic fishes, mesopelagic miscellaneous fishes higher invertebrates). Trophic levels estimated each compared with estimates using stable isotope ratios. ranged 3.2–3.4 in baleen whales sea otters, to...
