  • Ecosystem Services Generated by Fish Populations
    AR-211 Ecological Economics 29 (1999) 253 –268 ANALYSIS Ecosystem services generated by fish populations Cecilia M. Holmlund *, Monica Hammer Natural Resources Management, Department of Systems Ecology, Stockholm University, S-106 91, Stockholm, Sweden Abstract In this paper, we review the role of fish populations in generating ecosystem services based on documented ecological functions and human demands of fish. The ongoing overexploitation of global fish resources concerns our societies, not only in terms of decreasing fish populations important for consumption and recreational activities. Rather, a number of ecosystem services generated by fish populations are also at risk, with consequences for biodiversity, ecosystem functioning, and ultimately human welfare. Examples are provided from marine and freshwater ecosystems, in various parts of the world, and include all life-stages of fish. Ecosystem services are here defined as fundamental services for maintaining ecosystem functioning and resilience, or demand-derived services based on human values. To secure the generation of ecosystem services from fish populations, management approaches need to address the fact that fish are embedded in ecosystems and that substitutions for declining populations and habitat losses, such as fish stocking and nature reserves, rarely replace losses of all services. © 1999 Elsevier Science B.V.

Plaintiff is a limited liability company formed by children of Guy Anderson (or their successors-in-interest) who wished to sell their interests in Guy’s mining claims on a piece of property in Arizona’s Copper Mountain Mining District, and the defendants were Guy’s remaining child, and his children, who did not want to sell their interest in the mining claims. The district court entered judgment ordering partition by sale, and approved the sale of the property.

  • Usufruct Study Guide
    Article 562 ± 578 1. Define usufruct. Usufruct is a real right by virtue of which a person is given the right to enjoy the property of another with the obligation of preserving its form and substance, unless the title constituting it or the law provides otherwise. 2. What are the three fundamental Rights Appertaining to Ownership? Ownership consists of three fundamental rights, to wit: - jus disponende (right to dispose) - jus utendi (right to use) - jus fruendi (right to the fruits) 3. Of the above-mentioned fundamental rights, what consists usufruct and naked ownership? The combination of the jus utendi and jus fruendi is called usufruct. The remaining right jus disponendi is really the essence of what is termed ³naked ownership´. 4. What right is transferred to the usufructuary and what right is remained with the owner? In a usufruct, only the jus utendi and jus fruendi over the property is transferred to the usufructuary. The owner of the property maintains the jus disponendi or the power to alienate, encumber, transform, and even destroy the same. (Hemedes vs. CA, 316 SCRA 347 1999). 5. What are the formulae with respect to full ownership, usufruct, and naked ownership? The following are the formulae: - Full Ownership equals Naked Ownership plus Usufruct - Naked Ownership equals Full Ownership minus Usufruct - Usufruct equals Full Ownership minus Naked Ownership 6. What are the characteristics or elements of usufruct? The following are the characteristics or elements of usufruct: ESSENTIAL CHARACTERISTICS: those without which it can not be termed usufruct: (a) It is REAL RIGHT (whether registered in the Registry of Property or not).

  • Water Quality Guidelines for the Management of Pond Fish Culture
    International Journal of Environment Sciences Vol. 5 No.INTERNATIONAL 2 (July-December, 2019) JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES Volume 3, No 6, 2013 Received:© Copyright 14th May by 2019the authors Revised: - Licensee 30th June IPA 2019- Under Accepted: Creative 15th Commons July 2019 license 3.0 Research article ISSN 0976 – 4402 Water quality guidelines for the management of pond fish culture Anita Bhatnagar, Pooja Devi Department of Zoology, Kurukshetra University, Kurukshetra, India-136119 [email protected] doi: 10.6088/ijes.2013030600019 ABSTRACT The Optimum fish production is totally dependent on the physical, chemical and biological qualities of water to most of the extent. Hence, successful pond management requires an understanding of water quality. Water quality is determined by variables like temperature, transparency, turbidity, water colour, carbon dioxide, pH, alkalinity, hardness, unionised ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, primary productivity, BOD, plankton population etc. In the present chapter water quality management principles in fish culture have been reviewed to make aware the fish culturist and environmentalist about the important water quality factors that influence health of a pond and are required in optimum values to increase the fish yields to meet the growing demands of present day scenario of the world, when the food resources are in a state of depletion and the population pressure is increasing on these resources. Keywords: Assessment and Monitoring, Culture, Fish productivity, Parameters, Water quality 1. Introduction Fish is an inexpensive source of protein and an important cash crop in many regions of world and water is the physical support in which they carry out their life functions such as feeding, swimming, breeding, digestion and excretion (Bronmark and Hansson, 2005).

Kennedy died owning 560 acres in Desha County, Arkan- sas. He devised a life estate to his widow with a remainder, in equal shares, to his nephews Wilburn Kennedy and Cecil Kennedy. Wil- burn Kennedy conveyed his undivided one-half remainder interest to E.R. Henry, Jr. and Sterling L. Henry. The Henrys petitioned for partition under the Arkansas partition statute,' as owners of one- half of the remainder interest, against Cecil Kennedy. Because the property was not susceptible to partition in kind, the chancery court ordered a sale of the property, subject to the widow's life estate. On appeal, the Arkansas Court of Appeals reversed, holding that re- maindermen have no right to bring a partition action against other remaindermen when they have no present possessory interest in the property.2 On certiorari, the Arkansas Supreme Court reversed, holding that citizens of Arkansas who have a remainder interest in property may compel partition of their future interests regardless of whether they have any present possessory interest.

  • Using Artificial-Reef Knowledge to Enhance the Ecological Function of Offshore Wind Turbine Foundations: Implications for Fish A
    Journal of Marine Science and Engineering Review Using Artificial-Reef Knowledge to Enhance the Ecological Function of Offshore Wind Turbine Foundations: Implications for Fish Abundance and Diversity Maria Glarou 1,2,* , Martina Zrust 1 and Jon C. Svendsen 1 1 DTU Aqua, Technical University of Denmark (DTU), Kemitorvet, Building 202, 2800 Kongens Lyngby, Denmark; [email protected] (M.Z.); [email protected] (J.C.S.) 2 Department of Ecology, Environment and Plant Sciences, Stockholm University, Svante Arrhenius väg 20 A (or F), 114 18 Stockholm, Sweden * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +45-50174014 Received: 13 April 2020; Accepted: 5 May 2020; Published: 8 May 2020 Abstract: As the development of large-scale offshore wind farms (OWFs) amplifies due to technological progress and a growing demand for renewable energy,associated footprints on the seabed are becoming increasingly common within soft-bottom environments. A large part of the footprint is the scour protection, often consisting of rocks that are positioned on the seabed to prevent erosion. As such, scour protection may resemble a marine rocky reef and could have important ecosystem functions. While acknowledging that OWFs disrupt the marine environment, the aim of this systematic review was to examine the effects of scour protection on fish assemblages, relate them to the effects of designated artificial reefs (ARs) and, ultimately, reveal how future scour protection may be tailored to support abundance and diversity of marine species. The results revealed frequent increases in abundances of species associated with hard substrata after the establishment of artificial structures (i.e., both OWFs and ARs) in the marine environment.
