    LONG-RANGE INTERPRETIVE PLAN Dry Tortugas National Park 2003 Cover Photograph: Aerial view of Fort Jefferson on Garden Key (fore- ground) and Bush Key (background). COMPREHENSIVE INTERPRETIVE PLAN Dry Tortugas National Park 2003 LONG-RANGE INTERPRETIVE PLAN Dry Tortugas National Park 2003 Prepared by: Department of Interpretive Planning Harpers Ferry Design Center and the Interpretive Staff of Dry Tortugas National Park and Everglades National Park INTRODUCTION About 70 miles west of Key West, Florida, lies a string of seven islands called the Dry Tortugas. These sand and coral reef islands, or keys, along with 100 square miles of shallow waters and shoals that surround them, make up Dry Tortugas National Park. Here, clear views of water and sky extend to the horizon, broken only by an occasional island. Below and above the horizon line are natural and historical treasures that continue to beckon and amaze those visitors who venture here. Warm, clear, shallow, and well-lit waters around these tropical islands provide ideal conditions for coral reefs. Tiny, primitive animals called polyps live in colonies under these waters and form skeletons from cal- cium carbonate which, over centuries, create coral reefs. These reef ecosystems support a wealth of marine life such as sea anemones, sea fans, lobsters, and many other animal and plant species. Throughout these fragile habitats, colorful fishes swim, feed, court, and thrive. Sea turtles−−once so numerous they inspired Spanish explorer Ponce de León to name these islands “Las Tortugas” in 1513−−still live in these waters. Loggerhead and Green sea turtles crawl onto sand beaches here to lay hundreds of eggs.

    PINNGORTITALERIFFIK GREENLAND INSTITUTE OF NATURAL RESOURCES GRØNLANDS NATURINSTITUT Nuuk, August 2018 Assessment of lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) in West Greenland based on commercial data 2010-2018 Rasmus Hedeholm and Søren Post Greenland Institute of Natural Resources Introduction The lumpfish fishery in Greenland is conducted in the spring along the Greenland west coast. The fishery peaks in late May/early June. Prior to year 2000, reported roe landings were below 500 t, but in the last decade landings have steadily increased, reaching the highest level in 2013 with 2 124 t (Fig. 1). Since then, catches have generally decreased, now being around 1 000 t. Before 2015 the fishery was unregulated, but in 2015 a management plan was implemented, that operates with TAC and restricted number of fishing days. The West Coast is divided into seven management areas, with the onset of the fishery being area de- pendent due to a timely displaced onset of spawning. The fishery is conducted from small open boats (<6.5m) that operates with gill nets that typically fish for 24 hours. Due to the large mesh size (260mm) the nets are highly selective, and catch predominantly female lumpfish, which are much larger than males (Hedeholm et al. 2013). Upon capture, the roe is removed from the fish, and stored in large barrels before landed at land based facilities. Hence, the number of fish landed is not reported, but only the total amount of roe. Due to the size of the fishing vessels, there is an upper limit to the number of nets each boat can carry.

The study of the Portuguese marine ichthyofauna has a long historical tradition, rooted back in the 18th Century. Here we present an annotated checklist of the marine fishes from Portuguese waters, including the area encompassed by the proposed extension of the Portuguese continental shelf and the Economic Exclusive Zone (EEZ). The list is based on historical literature records and taxon occurrence data obtained from natural history collections, together with new revisions and occurrences.

  • THE HYDROBIOTOPIC DIVERSITY of the LAKES of the LOWER PRUT RIVER, REPUBLIC of MOLDOVA Mihaela MUNTEANU (PILA)1, Silvius STANCIU
    THE HYDROBIOTOPIC DIVERSITY OF THE LAKES OF THE LOWER PRUT RIVER, REPUBLIC OF MOLDOVA Mihaela MUNTEANU (PILA)1, Silvius STANCIU2 1PhD Student, „Dunărea de Jos” University of Galați, Romania, email: [email protected]. 2 PhD Professor „Dunărea de Jos”University of Galați, Romania, email: [email protected] Abstract This paper proposes the presentation and analysis of the fish fauna and the specific benthic resources of the Prut River and its tributaries: Costeşti-Stânca, Beleu, Manta. An important objective of the paper is to present the differences in hydrobiotop diversity in different riparian sectors. A healthy ecosystem has a rich ichthyofauna due to the diversity of vegetation and fish species capable of withstanding resistance to aggressive external factors and threats. The aquatic biodiversity of the Prut River is a major complex consisting of phytoplankton and zooplankton. To optimize production of fish, an important factor is maintaining the balance quantity and quality of the entire water system. From this point of view, the paper presented also quantitative aspects of zoobenthos, which is different in the analyzed areas, being influenced by the degree of pollution, the hydrological regime or the physico-chemical conditions. Research has revealed significant differences between different areas of the aquatic fauna of the Prut, mainly due to the human factor. The study is a preliminary one, preparing a broader analysis of the impact of the human factor in the aquatic areas of the Republic of Moldova. Identifying and analyzing the factors that have led to the modification of aquatic structure and diversity can serve as arguments for achieving viable measures for the protection and sustainable use of natural aquatic resources at national level.
