King of Fish: The Thousand-Year Run of Salmon
ISBN: 9780813342993 / Angielski / Miękka / 290 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The salmon that symbolize the Pacific Northwest's natural splendor are now threatened with extinction across much of their ancestral range. In studying the natural and human forces that shape the rivers and mountains of that region, geologist David Montgomery has learned to see the evolution and near-extinction of the salmon as a story of changing landscapes. Montgomery shows how a succession of historical experiences -first in the United Kingdom, then in New England, and now in the Pacific Northwest -repeat a disheartening story in which overfishing and sweeping changes to rivers and seas...

Wrasse: Biology and Use in Aquaculture
ISBN: 9780852382363 / Angielski / Twarda / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Sea lice remain one of the main threats to salmon farming, with estimated losses of fish running to several million pounds each year in Scotland alone. The use of chemical methods by the industry has brought adverse publicity and wrasse (cleaner fish) present an alternative, environmentally friendly means of biological control. As a result, the demand for wrasse has spawned a new inshore fishery, and this has led to calls for more information on the population dynamics and size of stocks. Attempts are also being made to rear wrasse for stocking. As a consequence there is considerable interest...

The Atlantic Salmon: Genetics, Conservation and Management
ISBN: 9781405115827 / Angielski / Twarda / 520 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

This important new book will go a long way to rectify this situation by providing a thorough review of the genetics of... Atlantic Salmon is a cultural icon throughout its North Atlantic range; it is the focus of probably the World's highest profile recreational fishery a...
