Red snapper, Lutjanus campechanus, has been an economically important reef fish in the Gulf of Mexico (Gulf) for over 150 years and is currently overfished.
Fish distribution around structures of the Ekofisk oil field in the central North Sea was investigated by means of gillnet fishing, longlining, jigging and echosurveying. The studies were carried out during one week in August 1978.
Produced water is the largest volume of waste produced during the recovery of oil from offshore oil and gas production platforms, and is discharged directly into the surrounding marine environment.
Conclusions: “The sum total of evidence from this study and the literature individuates that the zooplankton communities of the O.E.I study areas: 1) are similar to those of other northern Gulf of Mexico areas; and 2) have not changed over the past twe
The maximum number (Nmax) of fish was recorded using baited underwater camera (BUC) techniques to study spatio-temporal changes of the fish community in localize areas.
This paper provides insight into the intrinsic and diverse nature of marine growth. It documents the biofouling development and the factors that affect it globally.
Overview of fouling, particularly mussel fouling (but also barnacles, hydroids, sponges, and algae), on platforms in the North Sea including the relationship between water depth and fouling communities.
