Identifying mangrove areas for fisheries enhancement; population assessment in a patchy habitat
<ol><li>Small-scale fisheries are an important element of the ecosystem goods and services that mangrove habitats provide, especially to poorer coastal communities that rely most on natural resources, and have similar ...
Quality of hatchery-reared juveniles for marine fisheries stock enhancement
(Elsevier, 2007)
The potential for stock enhancement by release of hatchery-reared juveniles continues to be a topic of interest to researchers and fisheries managers. While, in many studies, the focus has tended to be on the technology ...
Assessment of the effectiveness of mangrove rehabilitation using exploited and non-exploited indicator species
(Elsevier, 2007)
Mangrove forests have been cleared at an alarming rate over the last century to allow space for settlements, agriculture and aquaculture and are still used today for fuel and construction. However, in the last few decades ...
Approaches to stock enhancement in mangrove-associated crab fisheries
(Taylor & Francis, 2008)
Over the last decade, hatchery production of mud crabs has become technically and economically more feasible, enabling evaluation of the potential effectiveness of hatchery release in fisheries enhancement. The high growth ...
The mechanics of mass occurrence and recruitment strategy of milkfish Chanos chanos (Forsskal) fry in the Philippines
(Kagoshima University Research Center for the South Pacific, 1983)
The daily and hourly catch of milkfish Chanos chanos (Forsskal) fry in the coast of Hamtic, Panay Island in the Philippines was recorded over a period of 16 weeks, and correlated with time, location, types of gear, and ...
Mangroves as nurseries: Shrimp populations in mangrove and non-mangrove habitats
(Elsevier, 1998)
A total of 4845 penaeids belonging to nine species—Metapenaeus anchistus, M. ensis, M. moyebi, M. philippinensis, Penaeus merguiensis, P. monodon, P. semisulcatus, P. latisulcatus and Metapenaeopsis palmensis—were collected ...
Population biology of the Japanese little-neck clam, Tapes philippinarum, in Kaneohe Bay, Oahu, Hawaiian Islands
(University of Hawaii Press, 1977)
The Japanese little-neck clam, Tapes philippinarum, an introduced species in Kaneohe Bay, Oahu, Hawaiian Islands, has a thriving population only in a U5-hectare mud flat after heavy fishing triggered depletion in six other ...
Seasonal abundance, distribution and recruitment of mud crabs (Scylla spp.) in replanted mangroves
(Elsevier, 2006)
The abundance and distribution of mud crabs were studied in a replanted mangrove forest in Buswang, Aklan, Philippines. Two fishing gears, lift nets and bamboo traps, were used to monitor relative abundance of Scylla spp. ...
Baseline assessment of fisheries for three species of mud crabs (Scylla spp.) in the mangroves of Ibajay, Aklan, Philippines
(University of Miami, Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science, 2007)
Stock enhancement through habitat restoration and habitat release have both been considered as approaches to the management of declining Scylla spp. Prior to stock enhancement trials, the present study was conducted to ...
Measures of egg quality in induced spawns of the Asian sea bass, Lates calcarifer Bloch
(Springer Verlag, 2000)
The egg morphometry and lipid and protein components were determined in induced spawns (n = 14) of the sea bass, Lates calcarifer, to identify measures of egg quality. Based on fertilization and hatching rates, the spawns ...
