As it descends the continental slope in the western Gulf of Aden, it entrains significantly less-dense near-surface water, which itself varies on seasonal time scales. High-resolution hydrographic and direct velocity data collected during t...

Abstract In this study, a 2×3 factorial design with two levels of shrimp density (25 and 50 shrimp per m-2) and three levels of red algae density (0, 200 and 400g per m-2) was applied to calculate nitrogen and phosphorous budgets in integrated culture of Litopenaeus vannamei with Gracilaria corticata during 45 days under zero water exchange system. Juvenile of L.vannamei (5.82 ± 0.11 g...
