Can filter-feeding fishes improve water quality in lakes?
1. In this paper we examine the potential of a cichlid fish species (Sarotherodon galilaeus) to both maintain positive growth rates through filter-feeding on phytoplankton and improve water quality in Lake Kinneret through suppression of dinoflagellate (Peridinium gatunense) blooms. 2. Seasonal plankton consumption by S. galilaeus from Lake Kinneret was examined experimentally by monitoring cha...
متن کاملSolar Water Pumping System
PV array is increasingly employed for water pumping system. In this paper, the developed boost converter steps up the voltage produced by the PV array to a value which is suitable to run a single-phase induction motor. The inverter converts DC to AC is controlled by using sinusoidal pulse width modulation (SPWM) technique. By using a LCfilter the harmonics are eliminated and pure sine wave is o...
متن کاملChinese Marine Capture Fisheries
This contribution reviews the development of Chinese marine fisheries and fleet structure since the founding of the People’s Republic of China (‘China,’ excluding Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan) in 1949, up to the present, with emphasis on the type and quality of underlying statistical information, especially on landings. Our main purpose is to provide a basis for evaluating the credibility of re...
متن کاملLunge feeding in early marine reptiles and fast evolution of marine tetrapod feeding guilds
Traditional wisdom holds that biotic recovery from the end-Permian extinction was slow and gradual, and was not complete until the Middle Triassic. Here, we report that the evolution of marine predator feeding guilds, and their trophic structure, proceeded faster. Marine reptile lineages with unique feeding adaptations emerged during the Early Triassic (about 248 million years ago), including t...
