Climate change is expected to influence spatial and temporal distributions of fish stocks. The aim of this paper is to compare climate change impact on a fishery with other factors impacting the performance of fishing fleets. The fishery in question is the Northeast Arctic cod fishery, a well-documented fishery where data on spatial and temporal distributions are available. A cellular automata ...

the vapor extraction (vapex) process, a solvent-based enhanced oil recovery process has been found promising for some heavy oil reservoirs. in this work, the vapex process is studied using a compositional simulator on a number of single-block and multiple block fractured systems. pvt data of one of an iranian heavy oil reservoir are used to tune the equation of state. effects of fracture spacin...

The ocean surgeonfish Acanthurus bahianus, an abundant small herbivore on reefs throughout the tropical west and central Atlantic, is a significant component of Caribbean trapfishery catches. To assess effects of fishing on this species we compared its longevity, survivorship, size and abundance at localities throughout its range that have differing intensities and targets of fishing. Temperatu...
