Bayesian analyses for a multiple capture-recapture model

TL;DR: In this article, Bayes, empirical bayes and Bayes empirical Bayes solutions are given to the problems of interval estimation, decision making, and point estimation of the population size N. The model accounting for this variation is known as At.

Methods for Assessing Fish Populations

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a method to assess fish populations at some point during the fishery management process, where the knowledge base is insufficient during the steps of problem identification or management action and must assess a population before appropriate actions can be taken.

Age and growth of Atlantic bluefin tuna, Thunnus thynnus (Osteichthyes: Thunnidae), in the Mediterranean Sea

TL;DR: The biometry of Mediterranean bluefin tuna, Thunnus thynnus, the biology of which is not yet well understood, is described, which represents the first comprehensive study on the biometry, including age and growth, ofbluefin tuna captured in the Mediterranean Sea.

Demographic characteristics of a selection of exploited reef fish from the Seychelles: preliminary study

TL;DR: The population biology of six commonly caught species in the Seychelles reef fisheries was investigated by the study of otolith microstructures, and evidence derived from two tagged fish injected with tetracycline and recaptured after 1 year in the wild tentatively suggests that opaque bands are formed on an annual basis in the otoliths of L. mahsena.

Effects of dietary probiotic supplementations on prevention/treatment of yersiniosis disease.

TL;DR: To evaluate Enterobacter cloacae and Bacillus mojavensis, isolated from rainbow trout gut in the present study, as a probiotic to control yersiniosis disease.
