Organic contaminant and total mercury concentrations were compared in four species of lamniform sharks over several age classes to examine bioaccumulation patterns and gain insights into trophic ecology. Contaminants found in young of the year (YOY) sharks were assumed to be derived from maternal sources and used as a proxy to investigate factors that influence maternal offloading processes. YO...

Abstract Green bean threshing is one of the most important steps in cultivation and processing green beans. However, practice, many problems are found that affect level economy efficiency. This study aims to analyze techno-economics beans using a multipurpose machine, namely power thresher. The research method used involves technical approach, economics, statistics. results showed with moisture...

Preliminary analysis of the vertebrae of these three species indicate that the current processing method is adequate for counting bands. Sample collection is ongoing and it is likely that more will be obtained for the shortfin mako and thresher shark, though not for the white shark. Complete studies on the age of these species using the entire vertebral samples, tag/recapture data and length fr...
