Increase of mesh size. As expected, the increase in [fish] biomass and catch was smaller in the case of mesh size of 70 mm than with the use of a mesh size of 80 mm... When the gillnet mesh size was increased by 20 mm(from 60 to 80 mm), overall biomass increased significantly, about 43 [percent] within two years. According to the model results, in the first year after the onset of the new mesh-size restriction, the gillnet catch fell to one half of the previous annual catch, but then rose again and levelled off at a higher level in a few years. 1, record 1, English, - mesh%2Dsize%20restriction

L'une des mesures à envisager est l'imposition de restrictions sur le maillage, à des fins de conservation. [...] Quelques pays demandent [...] des mailles de forme carrée qui restent ouvertes durant le chalutage, sauf si elles subissent une pression très forte. On peut donc se demander quel est l'intérêt d'imposer des restrictions sur le maillage, à des fins de conservation, lorsque l'on utilise des engins traînés, étant donné qu'il est difficile de garantir leur bon fonctionnement. Avec les filets maillants et les filets emmêlants, le cas est différent et la restriction sur le maillage peut être un facteur de conservation important [...] 1, record 1, French, - restriction%20sur%20le%20maillage

In its simplest form, the fishing mortality rate is the rate at which fish are removed from the stock by harvesting. Think of fish stock as money in an interest-bearing bank account. If the interest is five percent per year, the bank account balance will grow as long as you withdraw less than five percent per year. If you withdraw more than five percent per year, the bank principal will decrease.... The interest rate in this example is equivalent to the stock's growth rate. The withdrawal rate is equivalent to the fishing mortality rate. Biological reference points based on fishing mortality help managers keep the withdrawal rate at a level that will ensure the long-term production or stability of the stock. 6, record 3, English, - fishing%20mortality%20rate

Dosimeters. The OSHA [Occupational Safety and Health Act] law requires characterization of varying noise environments by a single number criteria. The environment may be that experienced by a mobile employee whose work takes him into many different factory areas, or it may be a fixed work area where intermittent machine operations produce unpredictable variations in noise level. OSHA specifies a maximum daily noise dose (D) of unity: ... where C is the total exposure at a given steady dBA level and T is the maximum allowable exposure time at that level during a 8-hour work day. ... Noise dose can be predicted for mobile workers by studying their movements and estimating the total time they are exposed to each different dBA level they experience. 2, record 6, English, - noise%20dose

Environment Control and Life Support System(ECLSS) : The orbiter's Environmental Control and Life-Support System purifies the cabin air, adds fresh oxygen, keeps the pressure at sea level, heats and cools the air, and provides drinking and wash water. The system also includes lavatory facilities. The cabin is pressurized to sea level(14. 7 psi) with 21 percent oxygen and 79 percent nitrogen, comparable to Earth's atmosphere. The air is circulated through lithium hydroxide/charcoal canisters which remove carbon dioxide. The canisters are changed on a regular basis. Excess heat from the cabin and flight-deck electronics is collected by a circulating coolant water system and transferred to radiator panels on the payload bay doors where it is dissipated. The fuel cells produce about seven pounds of water each hour. It is stored in tanks, and excess water is dumped overboard. The lavatory unit collects and processes body waste, and also collects wash water from the personal hygiene station. The lavatory unit, located in the middeck area, operates much like those on commercial airlines but is designed for a weightless space environment. 3, record 10, English, - environment%20control%20and%20life%20support%20system

Since CO2 has already increased by 25 percent to its preindustrial level, it might be possible to project observed climatic changes into the future. However, we learn that these changes are difficult to detect because of the signal-to-noise concept. In fact, climatic variations over all time scales have been observed. For instance, most temperature time-series show significant variability on a time scale of some decades. The reason for these variations is poorly understood. Therefore, they must be classified as noise and are confounding when the influence of CO2 is to be determined. 1, record 15, English, - signal%2Dto%2Dnoise%20concept

Cette théorie qui connaît différentes applications, en radiotélécommunication notamment mais aussi en sismologie, est également utilisée en climatologie; chacune de ces sciences a établi des critères précis afin de l'utiliser à ses propres fins. Le climat subit des variations qui répondent à des cycles connus et que la statistique permet de distinguer; les climatologues croient que ces bruits, les variations naturelles, s'ils sont d'abord identifiés permettront ensuite de laisser voir le véritable signal confirmant que l'effet de serre anthropique est bien en cours. L'interprétation cohérente de ces signaux constitueraient l'empreinte de l'effet de serre, la trace scientifiquement observable de son existence. 2, record 15, French, - th%C3%A9orie%20de%20la%20d%C3%A9tection%20du%20signal
