BACKGROUND Analysis of US claims data from April 2010 to June 2011 estimated that 39% of the 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13) catch-up eligible cohort would ever receive the catch-up vaccination; a previous analysis assumed 87%. METHODS This updated figure was applied to a previously published 10-year Markov model while holding all other inputs constant. RESULTS Our model es...

A unique database was created that describes the methods used to allocate shares in nearly every major catch share fishery in the world. Approximately 54% of the major catch share fisheries in the world allocated the Total Allowable Catch (TAC) solely on the basis of historical catch records, 3% used auctions, and 6% used equal sharing rules. The remaining 37% used a combination of methods, inc...

There are differences in perception of the status of fisheries around the world that may partly stem from how data on trends in catches over time have been used. On the basis of catch trends, it has been suggested that about 70% of all stocks are overexploited due to unsustainable harvesting and 30% of all stocks have collapsed to <10% of unfished levels. Catch trends also suggest that over tim...

population and density estimate of black rat in mangrove forests was conducted by two independent procedures, including seber-jolly and catch-effort methods. a selected trapping area with 15 hectares was studied. first, 60 cage traps for seber-jolly and then 80 cage traps for catch-effort method installed in the trapping area. we used color earrings and numerical rings for marking the captured ...

Background: Water in any form is the prime constitute of plant growth and development. Right amount water applied at right time quantity to crop will helpful get maximum yield potential that crop. This possible with surface drip irrigation method. Uniform application through emitters necessary aspect avail benefits like higher use efficiency irrigation. Uniformity system can be measured by vari...

The article presents the effect of different insertion buckwheat as a catch crop on weediness spring barley and bean crops. research was carried out in 2019–2020 at farm Virmantas Pocius, located Pakruojis District, two fields, near Draudeliai Village. experiment variants were following: 1) tillage cover crops autumn (control); 2) shallow to depth 5 cm autumn; 3) deep 20 autumn. In control crop...

compensatory growth response and body composition of male sailfin molly, poecilia latipinna subjected to short-term starvation and subsequent feeding were studied for 54 days. four feeding schedules were used in this study: c, control (were fed to apparent satiation throughout the experiment); t1, treatment 1 (3 days starvation and 6 days refeeding); t2, treatment 2 (6 days starvation and 12 da...

One strategy for estimating total catch is to employ two separate surveys that independently estimate total fishing effort and catch rate with the estimator for total catch formed by their product. Survey designs for estimating catch rate often involve interviewing the fishermen during their fishing episodes. Such roving designs result in incomplete episode data and characteristically have empl...
