Chill out: physiological responses to winter ice-angling in two temperate freshwater fishes
A large body of research has documented the stress response of fish following angling capture. Nearly all of these studies have taken place during the open-water season, with almost no work focused on the effects of capture in the winter via ice angling. We therefore conducted a study to examine physiological disturbance and reflex impairment following capture by ice-angling in two commonly tar...
متن کاملAngling for Thyroid Answers
Levels of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) measured in human samples have increased in recent years, but the health effects of these compounds are not well studied. A group of persistent pol lutants similar in structure to polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), PBDEs are thought to affect endocrine function, but this relation ship has only been examined in several small studies. A new study ...
متن کاملFactors Contributing to the Physiological Disturbance in Walleyes during Simulated Live-Release Angling Tournaments
—The goal of the current study was to examine the physiological disturbances in walleyes Sander vitreus that occurred during the different phases of a live-release angling tournament. To achieve this, we took blood and white muscle samples from walleyes during experiments that simulated different aspects of a liverelease tournament (angling, live-well confinement, and weigh-in procedure). In ac...
متن کاملReading the river through ‘watercraft’: environmental engagement through knowledge and practice in freshwater angling
This paper examines how freshwater anglers in northern England „read‟ rivers as landscapes and work with them relationally, through various sorts of embodied knowledge-practices, as part of their angling activity: processes that they call „watercraft‟. We use this example of environmental engagement to go beyond the visual engagement with landscapes that has been associated with modernity‟s dis...
متن کاملAngling for Big Fish in BitTorrent
BitTorrent piracy is at the core of fierce debates around network neutrality. Most of the legal actions against BitTorrent exchanges are targeted toward torrent indexing sites and trackers. Surprisingly, little is known about the initial seeds that insert contents on BitTorrent and about the highly active peers that are present in a large number of torrents. The main reason is that acquiring th...
