The Iran Water Resources Management Company constructs many dams to control surface water that provide a new potential for aquaculture activities. Trophic status index and natural potential for fish production were investigated in nine small dam reservoirs from northwest of Iran. Prediction of fish productivity was calculated based on phytoplankton biomass (using chlorophyll a concentration in ...

metals such as copper. Once the manganese protein has folded, the metal-binding sites are inaccessible to other metals, and the protein can be safely exposed to the periplasmic envi­ ronment. In other words, the metal that binds to the protein is selected by the compartment in which the protein folds. Tottey and colleagues suggest that cytoplas­ mic metal insertion might be crucial not only for...

The Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) is bound by its Article II, 3 to follow an ecosystem approach to management. This approach has been extended to the application of a precautionary approach in the late 1980s. In our review, we deal primarily with the science-related aspects of CCAMLR and its development towards an ecosystem approach to the managem...

IN THEIR REPORT “EFFECTS OF MARINE reserves on adjacent fisheries” (30 Nov., p. 1920), C. M. Roberts and co-authors present data indicating that fishery yields have increased in waters adjacent to marine reserves in St. Lucia and east Florida. In many developing island nations like St. Lucia in the Caribbean, fisheries are seriously overexploited, and little or no fisheries management exists. I...
