The emergence of more powerful and resourceful mobile devices, as well as new wireless communication technologies, is turning the concept of ad-hoc networking into a viable and promising possibility for ubiquitous information sharing. However, the inherent characteristics of ad-hoc networks bring up new challenges for which most conventional systems don't provide an appropriate response. Namely...

A downscaled version of an electrical dry stunner used in aquaculture has been adapted for use on fishing vessels to immobilize the catch (cod, haddock and saithe) shortly after capture facilita...

We determined the first complete mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequences for the whiting (Merlangius merlangus, family Gadidae, order Gadiformes) and the haddock (Melanogrammus aeglefinus, family Gadidae, order Gadiformes). The entire mitogenomes were amplified and sequenced by primer walking using newly designed specific internal primers. Lengths were 16,569 and 16,585 bases for whiting and haddoc...

Immunoglobulin (IgM) was isolated from the serum of four fish species, Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.), halibut (Hippoglossus hippoglossus L.), haddock (Melanogrammus aeglefinus L.) and cod (Gadus morhua L.) and a comparison made of some physical and biochemical properties. The molecular weight of IgM varied between the different species and between the different analytical methods used. IgM f...

For fisheries to be sustainable, management should account for all major sources of fishing mortality. On the Canadian side Georges Bank, landings and discards transboundary stocks Atlantic Cod Gadus morhua, Haddock Melanogrammus aeglefinus, Yellowtail Flounder Limanda ferruginea are monitored against quotas that shared by groundfish scallop (sea Placopecten magellanicus) limit The quota alloca...

ABSTRACT Despite over a century of exploitation of fish in European waters, scientists know surprisingly little about the precise distribution of the major commercially exploited fish species, and their habitat requirements. This is the first European study that aims to identify essential fish habitats of commercially important fish species (cod, haddock, whiting, plaice, sole, plaice, lemon so...

BACKGROUND Macromolecular complexes are the molecular machines of the cell. Knowledge at the atomic level is essential to understand and influence their function. However, their number is huge and a significant fraction is extremely difficult to study using classical structural methods such as NMR and X-ray crystallography. Therefore, the importance of large-scale computational approaches in st...
