As a well-known example of “living fossil,” horseshoe crabs are ecologically significant macroinvertebrates in coastal and estuarine ecosystems. The tri-spine crab, Tachypleus tridentatus , has been widely utilized for amebocyte lysate production food consumption since the 1980s, which led to considerable population declines along west coast Pacific Ocean. declining crab is expected have ecolog...

Fishing and ancillary industries are commonly perceived to be of significant social and economic value by virtue of their geographic location. Past socio-economic studies of fisheries and related industries largely confined themselves to analysing demographic statistics and relating these to official port fish landings data and descriptions of processing and ancillary industries. Despite these ...

A multiple of stakeholder goals, regarding natural resource utilisation, are integrated into an overall provincial strategic forest and fisheries utilisation decision support system providing a platform for defining tactical forest planning objectives within a 10-year planning horizon. The case study area is a 5362 ha mangrove forest enterprise, divided into a buffer zone and a full protection ...

The effects of climate change on the distribution and biology fisheries species have received substantial attention, but quantitative assessments changes to taste aroma determining compounds remain limited—despite sensory quality being a key driver demand for most harvested species. Utilising economically important blue swimmer crab ( Portunus armatus ), we tested temperature salinity treatment...
