This study analyzed the interaction between the small-scale fishers and the Mediterranean Monk Seal (MMS) in an important Peninsula and two important marine protected areas on the southwest coast of Turkey. The survey was carried out from January 2014 to December in 2015 in the Muğla Province. Small-scale fishers in the study sites were interviewed to assess the interactions between small-scale...

Abstract The Voluntary Guidelines for Securing Sustainable Small-Scale Fisheries in the Context of Food Security and Poverty Eradication, endorsed by Committee on Agriculture Organization United Nations 2014, heightened recognition protection small-scale fisheries globally. guidelines are voluntary non-binding, but does this mean they have no normative significance or legal force? Based interna...

in this paper, we study the generalized bin covering problem. for this problem an exact algorithm is introduced which can nd optimal solution for small scale instances. to nd a solution near optimal for large scale instances, a heuristic algorithm has been proposed. by computational experiments, the eciency of the heuristic algorithm is assessed.

Abstract There is a need for small‐scale (gram) tests that accurately predicts large‐scale (kilogram) detonation performance of energetic materials. Many attempts have been made to create such tests, but they are either too narrow in scope [1–3] or fail demonstrate correlation with behavior [4–9]. When creating regulations relative safety and transportation, accurate crucial organizations as th...
