Assessment of genetic variability in two lots of white shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei (Boone, 1931) introduced to Cuba
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2006-06-06)To monitor the genetic variability of L.vannamei shrimp-specie as founder stock and their correspondent first generation (F1), four microsatellite DNA loci species-specific for these animals were used. Data from allelic diversity (size, number and frequency of alleles) and levels of hetrozygozity were obtained as measures of genetic diversity. The protocol used is belonging to the lab, from the ... -

The evaluation for the fisheries resources in Bohai Sea
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2002-06-12)Fisheries in Bohai Sea occur in an ecosystem, with different provinces conducting fishing activities on different species using different gears. Coordination of government actions continues to be a problem, as there exists many contradictions between different sectoral planning approaches. With the absence of a holistic institutional framework of management mechanism, coastal and marine resources ... -
Allocating quotas and limiting access. An approach to management. The case of the Norwegian mackerel fishery
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2002-05-28)The mackerel fishery has become the most important pelagic species for export. Prior to 1994 the allocations between the three main fleet groups, the purse seine, the coastal and the trawl fleet was negotiated on an annual basis. 1994, was an important year for the fisheries industry, the price subsidies were no longer appropriate after the implementation of the EEA agreement. A stronger focus ... -

Behaviour and patterns of habitat utilisation by deep-sea fish. Analysis of observations recorded by the submersible Nautilus in "98" in the Bay of Biscay, NE Atlantic
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2003-06-05)Analysis of video recordings performed by the submersible “Nautile” in the Bay of Biscay, NE Atlantic indicated that demersal fish species are associated to different types of deep-sea habitats. Four different dive transects were analysed with respect to environmental characteristics. A total of 19 fish groups were ordinated by means of canonical correspondence analysis, and the investigation ... -

The Northern fisheries of the Russian Federation. Institutions in transition
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2005-05-23)The existing management system in the Russian fishing industry was created as a result of the political, economic and institutional transformations that took place in Russia after the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1990. This thesis analyses the processes in the fisheries that led to the establishment of the existing institutional and management practice. The study seeks to find out how the ... -
Gender roles in fishery planning and projects. The case study of coast region in Tanzania
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2002-05-31)Women play crucial roles in fisheries, particularly on the post harvest level. Despite this, they are noticeably absent from the discussion of many development programmes in fisheries. The focus is mainly on the needs and interests of men, neglecting women. Women are hardly involved in the planning and decision making or in the implementation and management of the projects. Therefore this study ... -
Ecosystem effects of red king crab invasion. A modelling approach using Ecopath with Ecosim
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2004-05-28)Barents Sea ecosystem is limited. Due to the information available on benthos the Ecopath model of Sørfjord, Northern Norway, was used to investigate possible trophic changes with introduction of king crab to the model. A literature study of the king crab was conducted to find information on diet, mortality, consumption rate and other life history parameters required by the model. A short ... -
Development of artisanal fishery in Rama Cay community, Atlantic coast of Nicaragua
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2002-05-31)Development is a term that evokes powerful images. It speaks to the collective aspiration of the people for a life of meaning and dignity. It inspire the hope to achieve what develop countries have achieved and what the poor may one day obtain. This thesis is the first study of Rama indigenous people focussing and its fishing activity in the community of Rama Cay. It examines the fundamental of ... -
Indigenous knowledge of marine ecosystems. Consumption, commercialization and management in the Miskito community of Sandy Bay and the Rama community of Punta Aguila, Caribbean Coast of Nicaragua
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2005-05-30)This thesis an effort is made to present the indigenous knowledge of marine ecosystems in the communities of Sandy bay (Miskito) and Punta Aguila (Rama) of Nicaragua. The aim is to identify and show how these fishing communities are using and transmitting their knowledge for resource harvesting and management. As indigenous people are facing changes in their daily life; conflict of resources use, ... -
Description and analysis of the white shrimp (Litopenaeus schmitti) fisheries in Pearl Lagoon, Atlantic Coast of Nicaragua, with focus on the gear selectivity in the artesanal fleets
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2006-06-13)Fishing continues to be the main source of income in the Pearl Lagoon Basin in Nicaragua. Currently the fishermen in the area have expressed growing concern about the shrimps stocks. Over the past years it has become increasingly clear that the fish and shrimp stocks are being exhausted, severely over-fished and experiencing a serious decline. This thesis examines the catch compositions (shrimps ... -
Trawling and longlining in the Namibian hake industry
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2002-06-07)Two hake species are caught off the coast of Namibia. These are Merluccious capensis and Merluccius paradoxus, and they are not distinguished between in catches . Two fishing fleets harvest hake, these are trawlers and longliners. In this study, the focus has been on the biological and economic characteristics of two different fishing methods. The Pella and Tomlinson surplus production model was ... -
Analysis of marine aquaculture developments in Namibia. Environmental, economic and legislative considerations
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2005-05-30)This multidisciplinary analysis of Namibia marine aquaculture developments has found it to have a good potential. Existing Namibian aquaculture laws are comprehensive in nature controlling aspects such as water, land, public health, sanitation and disease, however they ignore fish welfare. Mean temperature of Namibian marine coastal waters in the150 m water depth strata has averaged at 14.07 oC for ... -
The change of trade pattern for cod and other species of white fish in the Murmansk region
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2006-09-18)After dissolution of the Soviet Union, the economical and political changes in Russia resulted into development of the new institutional arrangements and altered the behaviour of all industrial organisations. The new institutional regime and the introduction of the new market-based economic system forced fishing companies to change their business behaviour and find new ways to adjust to the existing ... -

The economic development of the kapenta fishery Lake Kariba (Zimbabwe/Zambia)
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2002-06-07)Kapenta (Limnothrissa miodon) was introduced from Lake Tanganyika into the man-made Lake Kariba, where it now supports a large and viable fishery for Zimbabwe and Zambia who share the lake. The challenge for this paper has been to investigate whether the viability of the kapenta fishery is dependent upon biological factor or economic parameters. The Pella and Tomlinson surplus production model ... -
Status of capture fisheries activities and management in Tri An reservoir, Vietnam
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2006-06-02)Reservoir fisheries management must be based on an understanding that they are complex and dynamic ecosystem. This study describes fisheries activities status in the Tri An reservoir. The main objective is to determine an efficient exploitation level of fisheries resources affected by the stocking program. The Verhulst-Schaefer model (logistic growth) was applied and the classic model modified ... -
