The purpose of this Merchant Marine Notice is to communicate that it is our effort to prevent Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated Fishing which remains one of the greatest threats to marine ecosystems due to its strong ability to undermine national and regional efforts to manage sustainable fisheries as well as the attempts to conserve marine biodiversity, we are providing an official list of all vessels that appear on the IUU fishing vessels list published by Regional fisheries management organizations (RFMOs) . 2. In this sense, this administration request to all Panamanian Recognized Organizations, Classification Societies and Law firms to do not provide any sort of service related to the Panama Merchant Marine and any of the fishing vessels mentioned on the attached list. 3. This administration reaffirms its commitment to end illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing, understanding how it adversely impacts the legitimate commercial fishery as well as the fish populations and expects all parties for their cooperation.

The CC4 proposes the addition of 3 new vessels and the update on one vessel that was already listed. The list is separated into 3 parts: (1) New IUU vessels proposed by SIOFA, (2) New IUU vessels added from the cross-listing procedure with other RFMOs and (3) past IUU vessels that were already included by cross listing in the previous list. Recommendations (working papers only) The 4th Compliance Committee recommend the MoP to consider the provisional list and adopt a final SIOFA IUU vessels list.

    Fine-scale variation in microhabitat conditions influence physiology and metabolism in an Antarctic insect Drew Evan Spacht ( [email protected] ) The Ohio State University https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3651-114X Josiah D. Gantz Hendrix College Jack J Devlin University of Kentucky Eleanor A. McCabe University of Kentucky Richard E. Lee Miami University David L. Denlinger The Ohio State University Nicholas M.

Read Full License Page 1/17 Abstract Microhabitats with distinct biotic and abiotic properties exist within landscapes, and this microhabitat variation can have dramatic impacts on the phenology and physiology of the organisms occupying them. The Antarctic midge Belgica antarctica inhabits diverse microhabitats along the Western Antarctic Peninsula that vary in macrophyte composition, hygric qualities, nutrient input, and thermal patterns. Here, we compare seasonal physiological changes in ve populations of B. antarctica living in close proximity but in different microhabitats in the vicinity of Palmer Station, Antarctica. Thermal regimes among our sample locations differed in both mean temperature and thermal stability. Between the warmest and coldest sites, seasonal mean temperatures differed by 2.6˚C and degree day accumulations above freezing differed by a factor of 1.7. Larval metabolic and growth rates varied among the sites, and adult emergence occurred at different times. Distinct microhabitats also corresponded with differences in body composition, as lipid and carbohydrate content of larvae differed across sites.
