Determination of Age, Growth and First Maturity Length of Whiting (Merlangius merlangus, Nordmann, 1840) in the Eastern Black Sea

Trichodina Gobii (ciliophora: Trichodinidae) on Whiting Merlangius Merlangus with a Checklist from Turkish and Russian Coasts of the Black Sea

Trichodina gobii was identified during a parasitological survey conducted on the parasite fauna of whiting, Merlangius merlangus at both Sinop (Turkey) and Sevastopol (Russia) coasts of the Black Sea in the period between May 2011 and March 2014. Its morphological characteristics and taxonomic affinities with other previous reports on this species were revealed. The ecological occurrences in re...

Age Composition, Growth, Movements, Meristics and Parasites of the Whiting, Merlangius Merlangus, in the Severn Estuary and Bristol Channel

Samples collected from power station intake screens between 1972 and 1977 have been used to study aspects of the biology of the whiting in the Severn Estuary and Bristol Channel. 0+ whiting generally started appearing in the inner estuary in July, at which time their standard length was at least 38 mm. Their numbers peaked in October and subsequently declined particularly rapidly during the wet...

In vivo red blood cell sickling and mechanism of recovery in whiting, Merlangius merlangus.

Haemoglobin concentrations in vertebrate red blood cells are so high that in human sickle cell disease a single surface amino acid mutation can result in formation of large insoluble haemoglobin aggregates at low oxygen levels, causing peculiar cell deformations or 'sickling'. This may cause vascular occlusion and thereby severe pain, organ failure and death. Here, using light and transmission ...

A reliable method for ageing of whiting (Merlangius merlangus) for use in stock assessment and management

the effect of taftan pozzolan on the compressive strength of concrete in the environmental conditions of oman sea (chabahar port)

cement is an essential ingredient in the concrete buildings. for production of cement considerable amount of fossil fuel and electrical energy is consumed. on the other hand for generating one tone of portland cement, nearly one ton of carbon dioxide is released. it shows that 7 percent of the total released carbon dioxide in the world relates to the cement industry. considering ecological issu...
