This book was released on 2011-11-06 with total page 639 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reef fish spawning aggregations, ranging from small groups to many tens of thousands of individuals, are spectacular but poorly known natural phenomena whereby fish assemble at specific times and locations to spawn. For some species these large groups may be the only form of reproduction, the high fish numbers briefly giving a false impression of stability and abundance—an ‘illusion of plenty’. They are often a focus for intensive seasonal fishing because of their predictability and because many important commercial fishes form them. Highly vulnerable to overexploitation, many aggregations and their associated fisheries, have disappeared or are in decline. Few are effectively managed or incorporated into protected areas. Aggregations are not well understood by fishery scientists, managers and conservationists and their significance little appreciated by fishers or the wider public. To ensure their persistence to replenish important fisheries in coral ecosystems, maintain their ecosystem function and continue to delight divers, a significant change in perspective is needed to foster protection and management. This book provides comprehensive and practical coverage of the biology, study and management of reef fish aggregations, exploring their how, when, where, and why. It explores ways to better protect, study, manage and conserve them, while identifying key data gaps and questions. The text is extensively illustrated with many unique, never before published, photographs and graphics. Case studies on over 20 interesting and important fishes are included, outlining their biology and fisheries and highlighting major concerns and challenges.

Download or read book Shark Spawn written by Paul Rudd and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-03-31 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A space yarn, with teeth. It's the year 2124. Twenty years have passed since terraformers crossed the galaxy to find a new home on Centauri Prime. One by one, the human colonies have been taken over by Earth corporations. Only the settlement of Kinship remains untouched by galactic credit. By using the anticoagulant and antibacterial properties of shark skin tissue, Hank Cranford hopes to manufacture a vaccine that will enable long-term survival in the strange waters and atmosphere, and he hopes also to finally escape Earth's clutches and lead his colony into a new world. Captain Banyard, a seasoned smuggler, crosses space with a precious and unusual cargo. Enormous tanks in the hold of the Bayonet store a variety of sharks that are to be delivered to the domed habitat. When one of the Earth shark's escapes from captivity, blood is spilled, lives are lost and a new breed of shark is spawned. Welcome to Centauri Prime, an aquatic paradise, at least that's what it says in the brochure!

Book excerpt: Dagana wasn't the last of her kind. I learn this the hard way when I witness a mermaid kill a surfboarder just off the coast of Mermaid Cove. With my small town in panic, and my future threatened as a result, I task myself with solving the town's mermaid problem. The only problem? Events beyond my control leave all seeming lost—at least until I receive a mysterious letter from someone who claims to know not only about the mermaids, but a way to potentially rid us of their presence. As the body count continues to rise, it becomes apparent that this one is smarter, faster, and far more dangerous than her predecessor. And worst yet: she’s out for blood.
