The international symposium "Tuna fishing and fish aggregating devices", October 1999, in Martinique, takes stock of the exploitation of large pelagic fish around FADs, based on regional synthesis for the three oceans and the Mediterranean Sea. Main themes include technology, fishing methods, impact on resources, biology of fish aggregation, anthropology and economic aspects of FAD exploitation.
This volume provides a selection of the most significant papers presented at the Second Conference on Fish Telemetry in Europe in La Rochelle, France, in April 1997. The conference was attended by 100 scientists from 18 countries. The contributions are grouped under the following headings: Methodology and New Developments, Tagging Procedures, Behavioural and Physiological Ecology, Fish Migration, Stock Management and Conservation. Particular emphasis was put on tag miniaturisation, multiple functions and sampling strategies. Papers concerned the effects of tags on fish for consolidating behavioural or original physiological investigations noticeably more open to the marine environment. Methods were essentially applied to study the relationships between fish and their natural environment. Besides providing up-to-date information on the state of fish telemetry, the book illustrates the increase in spatial and temporal scales and the number of tracked fish which gives a statistical basis for field study in behavioural ecology.
Si les besoins en matière de dialogue territorial sont de mieux en mieux identifiés, les formations sont rares. Quels objectifs, quels contenus et quels dispositifs peut-on envisager pour former des animateurs au dialogue territorial ? Quelles spécificités la formation au dialogue territorial présente-t-elle par rapport aux formations existantes ? C'est à toutes ces questions que se sont efforcés de répondre des chercheurs, des praticiens et des formateurs lors de la conférence de consensus qui s'est déroulée de mars à octobre 2005, puis lors du séminaire des 20 et 21 octobre 2005 qui s'est tenu au lycée agricole de Périgueux. Dans une première partie, une quinzaine de partic...
Atlantic menhaden, Brevootia tyrannus, the object of a major purse-seine fishery along the U.S. east coast, are landed at plants from northern Florida to central Maine. The National Marine Fisheries Service has sampled these landings since 1955 for length, weight, and age. Together with records of landings at each plant, the samples are used to estimate numbers of fish landed at each age. This report analyzes the sampling design in terms of probability sampling theory. The design is classified as two-stage cluster sampling, the first stage consisting of purse-seine sets randomly selected from the population of all sets landed, and the second state consisting of fish randomly selected from ea...
