Development of an efficient environmentally-friendly Algae Control System, based on ultrasound technology, designed for use in bigger ponds and lakes (ClearWaterPMPC)

Date du début: 1 janv. 2012, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2013,

Both in lakes, large ponds, water reservoirs and public waters, the growth of blue-green algae constitute a formidable problem. These types of algae represent a group of bacteria, known as cyanobacteria. They give rise to a distinctly foul odour and are also known to produce toxins. These toxins can cause various discomforts and illnesses. As well as causing skin irritations they are even suspecte ...

Isolation and characterization of single nucleotide polymorpisms (SNPs) in Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus) (ABFT SNP)

Date du début: 1 juil. 2011, Date de fin: 31 juil. 2013,

"The Atlantic bluefin tuna Thunnus thynnus (Linnaeus 1758) is a highly migratory pelagic species found in the North Atlantic and Mediterranean Sea. The high market value of bluefin tuna has led to substantial overfishing, possibly lead to stock depletion unless sustainable catch quotas are enforced. Rational fish stock management requires knowledge of population structure; currently two separate ...

Marine Ecosystem Evolution in a Changing Environment (MEECE)

Date du début: 1 sept. 2008, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2013,

MEECE is a scientific research project which aims to use a combination of data synthesis, numerical simulation and targeted experimentation to further our knowledge of how marine ecosystems will respond to combinations of multiple climate change and anthropogenic drivers. With an emphasis on the European Marine Strategy (EMS), MEECE will improve the decision support tools to provide a structured l ...

Mitigating ADverse Ecological impacts of open ocean fisheries (MADE)

Date du début: 1 mai 2008, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2012,

"A particular attention has been paid worldwide on longline fisheries as they catch considerable amount of by-catch (seabirds, turtles, sharks, etc.). Seabird and turtles by-catch mitigation methods have now been established in many fisheries worldwide, but similar efforts must be put to reduce by-catch of sharks. In the same ecosystems, another issue attracts the attention of international tuna c ...

Network of leading MESOcosm facilities to advance the studies of future AQUAtic ecosystems from the Arctic to the Mediterranean (MESOAQUA)

Date du début: 1 janv. 2009, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2012,

"In marine ecology there is an urgent need to understand the functioning of the lower part of the pelagic food web, its response to and effect on climate change, its response to pollution and environmental toxins, and its role in producing food for commercially important species at higher trophic level. This requires access for European scientists to tools allowing experimental approaches to near- ...

REPROduction protocols and molecular tools for mass spawning and communal rearing based SELective breeding schemes applied to multiple-spawning marine fish (REPROSEL)

Date du début: 15 oct. 2010, Date de fin: 14 oct. 2012,

"Selective breeding schemes are widely recognized as efficient means to improve aquaculture production. Compared to the individual selection, family-based selection allows a better control of inbreeding and represents the only alternative to improve disease resistance and slaughter traits. However, fish farmers are reluctant to invest in such programs due to the high requirements for space, labour ...

Assessing the causes and developing measures to prevent the escape of fish from sea-cage aquaculture (Prevent Escape)

Date du début: 1 avr. 2009, Date de fin: 31 mars 2012,

The escape of fish from sea-cage aquaculture is perceived as a serious threat to natural biodiversity in Europe's marine waters. Escaped fish may cause undesirable genetic effects in native populations through interbreeding, and ecological effects through predation, competition and the transfer of diseases to wild fish. Technical and operational failures of fish farming technology cause escapes. C ...

Contaminant-specific isotope analyses as sharp environmental-forensics tools for site characterisation, monitoring and source apportionment of pollutants in soil (ISOSOIL)

Date du début: 1 févr. 2009, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2012,

Conventional remediation-monitoring programmes, i.e. analysis of contaminant and metabolite concentrations over time and space, often provide inconclusive assessments due to inability to resolve among mixing of several contaminant sources, degradation, dispersion and other redistribution processes. The isoSoil objective is to firmly establish concentration-independent contaminant-specific isotope ...

Integration and enhancement of key existing European deep-ocean observatories (EuroSITES)

Date du début: 1 avr. 2008, Date de fin: 31 mars 2011,

At present there are a number of fixed point observatories that autonomously measure biological, chemical and physical variables in the oceans around Europe. These operate at various levels of sophistication but in a largely uncoordinated and fragmented manner. There is no agreed set of basic variables and common data protocols are not followed. EuroSITES has two main objectives: 1: To enhance th ...
