Production of mangrove oyster (Crassostrea rhizophorae Guilding, 1828), north of Villa Clara, Cuba Province, tends to decline since 1980, accentuating from 2003 on. Despite regulations to protect the resource, minimum legal size and catch closures, the year 2008 presents the landing smaller volumes of the past 50 years. An analysis of the variability of catches in relation to natural and human factors, allows for precipitating causes of low productivity of this fishery resource; between the most representatives are expanding storage capacity of river water, salinity increment, the increase in frequency and intensity of hurricanes and the mismanagement of the extraction of oyster. |

The Kenya Agricultural Research Institute imported 12,300 curculionid weevils (Neochetina spp.) from diverse sources, for biological control of water hyacinth in Lake Victoria, as part of the World Bank-funded Lake Victoria Environmental Management Project in East Africa. In addition to the rearing and quarantine facility at Muguga, a second rearing facility was established in 1996 at Kibos, near Lake Victoria. The Kibos rearing facility and two community rearing facilities at the lakeshores, have produced approximately 100,000 adult weevils and 42,000 weevil eggs over a three-year period. Since January 1997, some 73,500 Neochetina weevils have been released at 29 sites and an additional 10,000 redistributed at several sites. Visual observations and... |

The studies made in the context of this Initial National Communication on Climate Change are based on the findings of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) 1 study on impacts and adaptation of Indian Ocean small island states. Changes in climate to be anticipated in Comoros by year 2050 are estimated to be a raise in mean annual air temperature to an average of 28°C, a change that represents a 1°C increase compared to the current situation. A sea level increase of 4 mm/year for a total increase of 20 cm by 2050 is also expected. Expected impacts are the intrusion of salted water in the coastal aquifers; an increase in the occurrence of malaria and of collective food poisoning resulting from consumption of marine animals 2; a decrease in crop... |

Dix stations côtières ont été prospectées dans la lagune de Bizerte en hiver 2001 pour étudier l’impact des conditions environnementales sur les plans morphométrique, trophique et de maturité des nématodes méiobenthiques. Nos résultats montrent que la croissance en largeur des nématodes libres a été proportionnelle aux charges sédimentaires en fraction fine et en métaux et ce parallèlement à l’individualisation de quatre morphotypes nématologiques. D’autre part, la structure trophique de la nématofaune est liée à la turbidité et aux concentrations des eaux en nitrites. En effet, la proportion en détritivores sélectifs, principalement bactériophages, au sein des communautés nématologiques, est positivement corrélée à la concentration des eaux en nitrites et... |

The gatuzo, Mustelus schmitti, lives in the Southamerican Atlantic coastal waters from up to 23°S (Brazil)down to 47°S (Argentine), and is the greatest species of the Bonaerense and North Patagonian shores. This species is the most exploited elasmobranch of this region, within the last six years catch has exceeded 10,000 t per year and it is vulnerable to overexploitation due to reproductive aspects, with a low rate of changes, as well as distribution patterns. In order to relate size distribution and nursery areas, and environmental temperature and salinity variability, were obtained within six INIDEP 'Coastal Project' research cruises from 34° to 42°S from boundaries to 50 mts isobaths, during the spring seasons between 1994 to 1997. Cluster analysis... |

Nigeria with a total area of 923,800 sq km occupies about 14% of land area in West Africa. The country lies between 4oN and 14oN, and between 3oE and 15oE. It is bordered respectively in the north, east, and west by Niger, the Cameroon, and Benin Republic, while the Gulf of Guinea, an arm of the Atlantic Ocean, forms the southern border. Most of Nigeria is covered with Pre- Cambrian rocks, but there are also metamorphic and sedimentary rocks of Eocene times as well as volcanic rocks. In general, three types of geologic structures exist in Nigeria, namely, areas of uplift, basins of sedimentation, and isolated volcanic areas. The areas of uplift are made up of the oldest rocks in Nigeria - the basement complex rocks. The basins of sedimentation are the... |
