    A key challenge in small-scale fisheries that use moored fish aggregating devices (mFADs) is the ability to accurately quantify multi-sector fishing activity through fishery-independent methods. Here, we present a novel fishery-independent assessment of multi-sector fishing activity associated with a newly developed open access mFAD programme off San Juan, Puerto Rico. We identified three fishing sectors (recreational, charter and commercial) and 158 individual fishing vessels that routinely operated in the vicinity of the mFADs. The results indicate that daytime fishing activity varied by time of day, day of week, location and sector. During fishing tournaments, the data revealed that fishing activity increased threefold; across monitoring periods, for-hire charter vessels were the most consistent day-to-day user segment, and recreational activity peaked on weekends. Our study represents a new technique for rapidly identifying and detecting multi-sector fishing activity near mFADs and highlights the potential to gather comparable data wherever mFADs are deployed. The results are used to discuss how this technique can be used to assess the performance of mFADs to identify sector overlap and guide management in determining deployment patterns and facilitate the design of cost-effective surveys to estimate mFAD vessel activity, and potentially catch, of mFAD-associated species.Un reto crucial en las pesquerías artesanales que utilizan los sistemas de agregadores de peces fijos (mFAD, por sus siglas en inglés) es el poder cuantificar con certeza la actividad pesquera multisectorial a través de métodos independientes de la pesca. En este estudio presentamos un innovador análisis independiente de la pesca para la actividad de pesca multisectorial asociada a los nuevos mFAD establecidos en Puerto Rico. Se identificaron 3 sectores pesqueros (recreacional, de alquiler y comercial) y 158 embarcaciones que rutinariamente pescaban alrededor de los mFAD. Los resultados muestran que la actividad pesquera diurna variaba por hora del día, día de la semana, lugar y sector. Durante torneos de pesca la actividad pesquera se triplicó, a lo largo de los periodos evaluados los botes de alquiler mostraron mayor consistencia por día y la actividad recreativa aumentó durante el fin de semana. Nuestro estudio plantea una nueva técnica para identificar rápidamente y detectar actividad multisectorial pesquera cerca de los mFAD y resalta el potencial de tomar datos comparables en otros lugares donde se coloquen los mFAD. Los resultados se utilizan para discutir cómo esta técnica puede ser utilizada para evaluar la ejecutoria de los mFAD, identificar solape de uso por varios sectores y guiar las decisiones en cuanto a los patrones para colocar los mFAD y facilitar el diseño de estudios costo efectivos para estimar la actividad de embarcaciones y el potencial de captura de peces alrededor de los mFAD

    La micobacteriosis es una patología causada por micobacterias conocidas como atípicas (MA) o no MT (MNT), de complejo diagnóstico y tratamiento. De las casi 200 especies descriptas, alrededor de 25 son las más comúnmente involucradas como agentes infecciosos oportunistas. La aparición del VIH y los tratamientos estéticos invasivos, propiciaron su manifestación como enfermedad emergente en los últimos años. Se determinó la frecuencia de aislamiento de micobacterias atípicas en muestras clínicas y cepas ingresadas al Laboratorio Central de Salud Pública entre los años 2010 y 2013. De 2765 cultivos positivos para micobacterias, 171 aislamientos correspondían a micobacterias atípicas, las que fueron identificadas por la técnica molecular PRA-hsp65 (PCR Restriction Analysis-hsp65), y por secuenciación de los genes 16S rRNA, hsp-65 y rpo ? en los aislamientos que no pudieron identificarse por PRA-hsp65. La frecuencia total de aislamientos fue del 6,2%, correspondiendo a la siguiente distribución: M. intracellulare 25,9%, M. avium 25,9%, M. abscessus 13,3% y M. fortuitum 12,7%; el 17,1% restante involucra a 14 especies diferentes; y en 9 casos (5,1%) no se llegó a identificación. Fueron mayormente aisladas en muestras de origen pulmonar (88,9%); en la adultez (32,2%) y tercera edad (26,9%); en el sexo masculino (62,6%); así como en pacientes PVVS (12,3%). Los resultados obtenidos coinciden con las publicaciones regionales en cuanto a especies más frecuentemente aisladas, y coinfección con VIH. En cuanto al origen de la muestra, edad y sexo no existe un consenso general de relación con estas variables en las publicaciones

    Multisensor experiments over vineyard: new challenges for the GNSS-R technique

    An airborne campaign was performed during August, 2014 in an agricultural area in the Duero basin (Spain) in order to appraise the synergy between very different sources of Earth Observation imagery, and very different instruments for soil moisture retrieval. During the flight, an intensive field campaign comprising soil, plant and spectral measurements was carried out. An innovative sensor based on the Global Navigation Satellite Systems Reflectometry (GNSS-R) was on board the manned vehicle, the Light Airborne Reflectometer for GNSS-R Observations (LARGO) engineered by the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya. While the synergy between thermal, optical and passive microwave spectra observations is well known for vegetation parameters and soil moisture retrievals, the experiment aimed to evaluate the synergy of GNSS-R reflectivity with a time-collocated Landsat 8 imagery for soil moisture retrieval under semiarid climatic conditions. LARGO estimates, field measurements, and optical, NIR, SWIR and thermal bands from Landsat 8 were compared. Results showed that the joint use of GNSS-R reflectivity with vegetation and water indices together with thermal maps from Landsat 8 thoroughly improved the soil moisture estimation.Peer ReviewedPostprint (published version

    Patterns of Spiny Lobster (Panulirus argus) Postlarval Recruitment in the Carribbean: A CRTR Project

    Get PDF
    As part of the Coral Reef Targeted Research (CRTR) Program, a partnership between the Global Environment Facility and the World Bank, our research team examined the recruitment patterns of Caribbean spiny lobster (Panulirus argus) postlarvae among regions in the Caribbean, with a particular focus on Mesoamerica. Our goal was to collect comparable information on postlarval supply among regions and to provide data to test predictions of connectivity generated from a coupled biophysical oceanographic model of lobster larval dispersal. Here we present the results of the postlarval recruitment monitoring program. We monitored the catch of postlarvae on Witham-style collectors at sites in the Caribbean from March 2006 to May 2009, although the duration and frequency of sampling varied among locations. Recruitment varied considerably among months and locations. It peaked in the Western Caribbean in the fall (Oct - Dec), whereas in Florida, Puerto Rico, and Venezuela peaks were in spring (Feb - April) with a smaller peak in the fall. Sites generally fell into two groups with respect to monthly variability in recruitment: low variability sites (e.g., Honduras, southern Mexico, Venezuela) and high variability sites (e.g., Florida, San Andres Islands, Puerto Rico, northern Mexico). Recruitment magnitude varied locally, but generally increased (lowest to highest) from Puerto Rico, San Andres Islands, Honduras, Mexico, Venezuela, to Florida. Recruitment trends mirrored fishery catch in some locations, implying a recruit-to-stock linkage. Recruitment was significantly correlated among several sites, suggesting similarity in their larval sources and oceanographic regimes

    Given the highly variable clinical phenotype of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), a deeper analysis of the host genetic contribution to severe COVID-19 is important to improve our understanding of underlying disease mechanisms. Here, we describe an extended genome-wide association meta-analysis of a well-characterized cohort of 3255 COVID-19 patients with respiratory failure and 12 488 population controls from Italy, Spain, Norway and Germany/Austria, including stratified analyses based on age, sex and disease severity, as well as targeted analyses of chromosome Y haplotypes, the human leukocyte antigen region and the SARS-CoV-2 peptidome. By inversion imputation, we traced a reported association at 17q21.31 to a ~0.9-Mb inversion polymorphism that creates two highly differentiated haplotypes and characterized the potential effects of the inversion in detail. Our data, together with the 5th release of summary statistics from the COVID-19 Host Genetics Initiative including non-Caucasian individuals, also identified a new locus at 19q13.33, including NAPSA, a gene which is expressed primarily in alveolar cells responsible for gas exchange in the lung.S.E.H. and C.A.S. partially supported genotyping through a philanthropic donation.
