Maximizing the Products Display for Purchaser Lucidity and Alleviation in Circulation to Augment the Sale of Supermarket: Milieu of Bangladesh

The purpose of this study is to appraise the accessible products display for the purchaser lucidity which may maximizes offers and actions of business with the alleviation in circulation to augment the random sale in the arena of supermarket. The study scrutinizes a fundamental research on the context of Bangladesh and especially for the Dhaka zone. A supermarket, a large form of the traditional grocery store, is a self-service shop offering a wide variety of food and household products, organized into aisles. It is larger in size and has a wider selection than a traditional grocery store, but is smaller and more limited in the range of merchandise than a hypermarket or big-box market. The traditional supermarket occupies a large amount of floor space, usually on a single level. It is usually situated near a residential area in order to be convenient to consumers. The basic appeal is the availability of a broad selection of goods under a single roof, at relatively low prices. Other advantages include ease of parking and frequently the convenience of shopping hours that extend far into the evening or even 24 hours a day. Key words: Circulation, Supermarket, Alleviation, Sale, Products, Variation, Lucidit

Response of rocky shore communities to anthropogenic pressures in Albania (Mediterranean Sea): ecological status assessment through the CARLIT method

This work was funded by theFrench CoastalProtectionAgency (Conservatoire de l'Espace Littoral et des Rivages Lacustres ; in short: Conservatoire du Littoral) within the framework of the Mediterranean Small Islands Initiative PIM. Thanks are due to Michael Paul, an English native speaker, for proof-reading the English and to an anonymous reviewer for valuable comments and suggestions.International audienceThe CARLIT methodology is an Ecological Quality Ratio (EQR) widely used in the Mediterranean Sea to assess the ecological status of coastal water bodies, within the framework of the European Water Directive (European Union, EU) of 2000. It is based upon the exhaustive mapping of a set of mid-littoral and shallow infralittoral species and communities. This methodology was applied, for the first time in a non-EU country, Albania, three years after the establishment of a Marine Protected Area (MPA). The observed range of ecological status was wide (‘high’ through ‘bad’) and was overall among the lowest assessed to date in the Mediterranean Sea. The bioconstructions (algal rims) edified in the lower mid-littoral zone by the calcified rhodobiont Lithophyllum byssoides were in poor condition and sometimes even dead, possibly in relation with the pollution and the on-going global sea-level rise. In addition, Cystoseira amentacea, a brown alga whose weight in the index is high, could be less sensitive to pollution than previously expected. The occurrence of extensive sea-urchin barren-grounds, though not taken into consideration by the CARLIT index, confirmed the poor condition of large sectors of the study area. Overall, the assessed ecological status could prove to be overestimated by the CARLIT methodology and some methodological improvements should therefore be considered

Seascape genetic study on Laminaria digitata underscores the critical role of sampling schemes

International audienceUnderstanding connectivity patterns in endangered species living in fragmented habitats is fundamental to improve management and conservation actions. Such improvements can be particularly pressing at trailing edges where populations are facing the greatest challenges of climate change, and appear all the more crucial if the species is commercially harvested. Seascape genetics have been increasingly used to meet these needs. In this study, we examined connectivity patterns among 32 populations located at the southern range limit of the oarweed kelp Laminaria digitata. Our populations were sampled in a roughly continuous manner, with the distance between neighboring populations ranging from a few km to about a few hundreds. By genotyping 11 microsatellite markers, our aim was to (1) refine analyses of population structure, (2) test whether on-shelf islands are genetically more differentiated compared to mainland populations, (3) evaluate the relative importance of various abiotic conditions in shaping the genetic structure and (4) evaluate if the relative importance of each environmental factor varied according to sampling schemes. Our analyses revealed a positive relation between connectivity links and genetic diversity: populations with high levels of connectivity were genetically enriched while isolated populations showed signs of genetic erosion. The genetically impoverished populations corresponded to the southernmost populations as well as populations along the northern coast of Brittany (Locquirec, Saint-Malo Bay) and the northernmost population in Pas-de-Calais. By performing db-RDA on various sampling schemes, geographic distance appeared as the dominant factor influencing connectivity between populations separated by great distances, while hydrodynamic processes were the main factor when analyzing continuously distributed populations

Seascape genetic study on Laminaria digitata underscores the critical role of sampling schemes

Understanding the environmental processes shaping connectivity can greatly improve management and conservation actions which are essential in the trailing edge of species’ distributions. In this study, we used a dataset built from 32 populations situated in the southern limit of the kelp speciesLaminaria digitata. By extracting data from 11 microsatellite markers, our aim was to (1) refine the analyses of population structure, (2) compare connectivity patterns and genetic diversity between island and mainland populations and (3) evaluate the influence of sampling year, hydrodynamic processes, habitat discontinuity, spatial distance and sea surface temperature on the genetic structure using a distance-based redundancy analysis (db-RDA). Analyses of population structure enabled to identify well connected populations associated to high genetic diversity, and others which appeared genetically isolated from neighboring populations and showing signs of genetic erosion verifying contrasting ecological (and demographic) status in Brittany and the English Channel. By performing db-RDA analyses on various sampling sizes, geographic distance appeared as the dominant factor influencing connectivity between populations separated by great distances, while hydrodynamic processes were the main factor at smaller scale. Finally, Lagrangian simulations enabled to study the directionality of gene flow which has implications on source-sink dynamics. Overall, our results have important significance in regard to the management of kelp populations facing pressures both from global warming and their exploitation for commercial use
