We are happy to announce the introduction of our brand new development, the Sensors2Net Smart Buoy, which helps fishermen prepare for best catch and provides fishing pond operators adequate and realtime information on water quality. The sensors, attached to Sensors2Net Smart Buoy, measure water parameters continuously and transfer them wirelessly to the internet, from where users can download ...
The seventh and final installment in the series “Happy Fish – How Aquaculture Operators are Growing Better Fish.” While we will only be able to scratch the surface of this topic, there is great potential in machine learning and artificial intelligence applied with aquaculture and fish farm systems. We wanted to ask leading industry experts Matt Clarke of Poseidon Ocean Systems, ...
Generally there is no nutritional difference between floating and sinking feed. Advantages of floating feed • High Nutrition Retention • Environment-friendly • Easy to Store • Best for a Young Fish Breed • Monitoring the fish Advantages of sinking feed • Better for fish who likes to live in bottom level of water. • Great for sky or pavid fish that are scared ...
The founders of Stø Technology refer to their catch management system as disruptive technology. «The Bumblebee» can change the entire operating pattern of the trawler industry. – This will make the trawler industry think completely new in terms of vessel and process optimization, new operations, market development and business models, says Arne O. Flø, Managing ...
In the summer of 1991,a 121 foot long Taiwanese long line fishing vessel, the HUI FENG #1, ran aground on an atoll in the middle of the Pacific. With a footprint of just 4.6 square miles Palmyra Atoll forms the most northern vegetated island in the Northern Line Islands, lying some 1,000 miles south of Honolulu. The atoll has a long storied past and is now a national monument and wildlife ...
β‐sitosterol concentration in pulp and paper mill effluents is typically greater than other phytosterols, and has been shown to cause a variety of effects in fish. We exposed Fathead Minnow (Pimephales promelas) to low (22 ± 0.93 µg/L), medium‐low (70 ± 2.1µg/L), medium‐high (237 ± 5.5 µg/L), and high (745 ± 16.2 µg/L) concentrations of β‐sitosterol; and a negative (water), positive (ethynyl ...
Findings could help fishery and wildlife managers monitor their stocks before disaster strikes. Written by Anne Trafton, MIT News Office.You can read the original new in MIT NewsIn the early 1990s, overfishing led to the collapse of one of the most bountiful cod fisheries in the world, off the coast of Newfoundland. Twenty years later, the cod population still has not recovered, dramatically ...
Climate change could benefit some Pacific fisheries, but tracking the success of adaptation needs effective monitoring, says Johann Bell. Climate change could derail plans by Pacific Island countries and territories (PICTs) to use fisheries and aquaculture to foster economic development and food security. Bottom-dwelling coastal fish are expected to be hardest hit. Under continued high ...
This paper estimates maximum sustainable yield and maximum economic yield from Schaefer and Fox surplus production bioeconomic models to find evidence of biological and economic overfishing, and their consequences in Gulf of Thailand demersal fisheries. The paper examines alternative policy instruments to reduce overfishing. The discussion emphasizes strengthening fishery management for ...
As part of an initiative to assemble and synthesize mercury (Hg) data from environmental matrices across northeastern North America, we analyzed a large dataset comprised of 15,305 records of fish tissue Hg data from 24 studies from New York State to Newfoundland. These data were summarized to provide mean Hg concentrations for 40 fish species and associated families. Detailed analyses were ...
