description: We consider GL(K|M)-invariant integrable supersymmetric spin chains with twisted boundary conditions and elucidate the role of Backlund transformations in solving the difference Hirota equation for eigenvalues of their transfer matrices. The nested Bethe ansatz technique is shown to be equivalent to a chain of successive Backlund transformations "undressing" the original problem to a trivial one.

description: We present mid-infrared observations of comet P/2016 BA14 (PANSTARRS), which were obtained on UT 2016 March 21.3 at heliocentric and geocentric distances of 1.012 au and 0.026 au, respectively, approximately 30 hours before its closest approach to Earth (0.024 au) on UT 2016 March 22.6. Low-resolution ($λ$/$Δλ$~250) spectroscopic observations in the N-band and imaging observations with four narrow-band filters (centered at 8.8, 12.4, 17.7 and 18.8 $μ$m) in the N- and Q-bands were obtained using the Cooled Mid-Infrared Camera and Spectrometer (COMICS) mounted on the 8.2-m Subaru telescope atop Maunakea, Hawaii. The observed spatial profiles of P/2016 BA14 at different wavelengths are consistent with a point-spread function. Owing to the close approach of the comet to the Earth, the observed thermal emission from the comet is dominated by the thermal emission from its nucleus rather than its dust coma. The observed spectral energy distribution of the nucleus at mid-infrared wavelengths is consistent with a Planck function at temperature T~350 K, with the effective diameter of P/2016 BA14 estimated as ~0.8 km (by assuming an emissivity of 0.97). The normalized emissivity spectrum of the comet exhibits absorption-like features that are not reproduced by the anhydrous minerals typically found in cometary dust coma, such as olivine and pyroxene. Instead, the spectral features suggest the presence of large grains of phyllosilicate minerals and organic materials. Thus, our observations indicate that an inactive small body covered with these processed materials is a possible end state of comets.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.We have compiled numerous observations on deep-sea cephalopods from submersibles. This video database includes numerous records of omrnastrephid squids from continental slope waters of the western North Atlantic. Species observed include !!lex illecebrosus, I. coindetii, Ornithoteuthis antillarum, and Hyaloteuthis pelagica. Morphometric differences known to distinguish the Jllex spp. are not easily recognized in-situ. Both I/lex spp. commonly rest on the bottom, apparently selecting areas with little benthic epifauna. In contrast, among our many observations on 0. antillarum we have seen no such behavior, although we have see the latter species swimming very close to the bottom. Feeding behavior has been observed in both II/ex and Ornithoteuthis.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.In New England waters, Atlantic Longfin squid (Loligo pealei) over-winter offshore along the edge of the continental shelf. During spring Loli go squid undertake seasonal migrations to spawn in shallow inshore waters. The resulting spawning aggregations are fished heavily by towed otter trawls. These aggregations have been targeted since the late 1800's. The stock is currently characterized as fully exploited at a medium biomass level and squid is in danger of being over-fished throughout the region. Each year a single cohort supports both the fishery and spawning stock; consequently, the potential for recruitment overfishing is substantial. Concerns about the spawning stock biomass are exacerbated by recent increases in the effort of offshore fisheries, which has been accompanied by a decrease in catch and catch per unit effort in the inshore fisheries. In addition, small-mesh fishing for squid in Nantucket and Vineyard Sounds during this seasonal fishery result in high catch and discard of undersized flounder and scup, both important commercial and recreational fishery species. This study was designed to assess the extent of bycatch and discard in the Loli go squid inshore fishery and to describe and document the behaviour patterns of squid and non-target fish. Bycatch rates vary but over 30% by weight of total catch is discarded at sea. The main bycatch and discard species comprise flatfish, scup and butterfish. Videotape recordings and behavioural analysis of squid reactions have shown that squid display classical herding behaviour and considerable swimming endurance in the forward part of the net Loli go are shown to rise when dropping back towards the codend and in some cases to tum and rise on tiring. This behaviour may be used to separate squid from the main bycatch species. Separator trawl test-trials have demonstrated that clear separation between squid and bycatch species can be achieved by simple gear modifications.

description: By means of ab initio calculations, we study the effect of charge transfer and symmetry mismatch on the magnetic and electronic properties of CaMnO$_3$ ultrathin films, epitaxially grown on SrTiO$_3$ (001). We find that the interplay of these degrees of freedom, together with the low dimensionality and the strain imposed by the substrate, changes the bulk occupancy of the Mn e_$g$ orbitals, which determines the magnetic configuration of the ultrathin CMO films. A transition from an insulating G-type to a metallic A-type antiferromagnetic configuration is stabilized.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.The stomach contents of 248 blue sharks (Prionace glauca) captured during 1996 in a commercial tuna gill net fishery between 46° and 52° N were examined. The modal lengths of the sharks was 120-130cm and the sex ratios was approximately 1 :1. 80.6% of the stomachs contained prey· remains. A total of 977 prey items were identified. Squid were the most important major prey group with a numerical abundance of 65.4%. Other important major prey groups were octopods, teleosts and crustaceans with indices of importance of 20.1, 13.9 and 4.6 respectively. Minor prey items included cetacean flesh and plastic debris. Histioteuthis reversa was the most common prey species. The next most common prey species was the gelatinous octopus Haliphron atlanticus (=Alloposis mollis), indices of importance were 32.8% and 16.5% respectively. A Todarodes sagittatus was the largest prey item with a total weight of 814.8g and a mantle length of 323mm. The results indicate blue sharks are opportunistic predators and back calculation of prey· size showed that they feed on cephalopods up to 35cm mantle length.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Pauly has argued for the generalization of von Bertalanffy growth models in fishes, based on fundamental geometric relationships between surface area and volume. Recent applications of statolith aging techniques to a variety of squids yield growth curves that rise much more rapidly than those of fish. This is in conflict with these geometric generalizations, raising questions about the aging techniques. The generalizations have recently been called into question even for fish, but it remains important to establish that squid geometries differ greatly from those of fishes, which may set them free to chose their own growth curves. We have measured key dimensions (primarily from a locomotory perspective) in squid with masses from 1 0Oug paralarvae to 100kg giants ( nine orders of magnitude) and modelled their growth allometries. Dramatic elongation of the hollow tubes that characterize squid and increasing fin size mean that, in contrast to the relative constant relation between surface area and volume in fishes, there is actually a five-fold increase in this ratio for squid over this range. The consequences of this difference for growth are potentially great because squid do respire directly through these surfaces. These results will be discussed in relation to other limitations on growth capacities and conversion efficiencies in squid and fish.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.In the Norwegian Sea in June 1994, young Gonatus fabricii with dorsal mantle length from 10 to 70 mm constituted at least 1.5 m mill. tonnes of biomass in the upper 30 m. At a length of 50 to 70 mm the species disappears from the s:urface layers, and are found from 400 m and downwards to at least 1100 m. When the individuals die at an age of two years one cohort of Gonatus fabricii has prodused a biomass of 20 mill. tonnes. The most important predators of Gonatus fabricii are the bottlenose whale and the sperm whale. They are e:stimated to eat 480 000 and 364 500 tonnes respectively. Hooded seals also eat a considerable amount of Gonatus fabricii . Thy present authors think that a surplus production of Gonatus fabricii takes place.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Aspartate transcarbamylase ( ATCase ) activity for the first time was used to estimate intantaneous growth in young cuttlefish ( Sepia officinalis ) reared under different diet conditions, and compared with estimations obtained by RNA and DNA concentrations. During the first month oflife, the changes of ATCase activity and RNA content of muscle are related to growth. ATCase seems to be a good index for the first stage of growth when intense cell multiplication occurs. ATCase activity is correlated to food intake up to a maximum ration and then decreases when animals are more tl1an 40 days old. The interest of ATCase activity as a biochemical index for estimating short-term change in growth rates of young cuttlefish from experimental rearing is suggested. This approach could be extended to young cephalopods collected in the field, and then used in recruitment studies.

description: Moiré superlattices in van der Waals heterostructures provide a tunable platform to study emergent properties that are absent in the natural crystal form. Twisted bilayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TB-TMDs) can host moiré flat bands over a wide range of twist angles. For twist angle close to 60°, it was predicted that TB-TMDs undergo a lattice reconstruction which causes the formation of ultra-flat bands. Here, by using scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy, we show the emergence of multiple ultra-flat bands in twisted bilayer WSe2 when the twist angle is larger than 57°. The bandwidth, manifested as narrow tunneling conductance peaks, is estimated less than 10meV, which is only a fraction of the estimated on-site Coulomb repulsion energy. The number of these ultra-flat bands and spatial distribution of the wavefunctions match the theoretical predictions incredibly well, strongly evidencing that the observed ultra-flat bands are induced by lattice reconstruction. Our work provides a foundation for further study of the exotic correlated phases in TB-TMDs.

description: In this paper, we construct and analyze a uniquely solvable, positivity preserving and unconditionally energy stable finite-difference scheme for the periodic three-component Macromolecular Microsphere Composite (MMC) hydrogels system, a ternary Cahn-Hilliard system with a Flory-Huggins-deGennes free energy potential. The proposed scheme is based on a convex-concave decomposition of the given energy functional with two variables, and the centered difference method is adopted in space. We provide a theoretical justification that this numerical scheme has a pair of unique solutions, such that the positivity is always preserved for all the singular terms, i.e., not only two phase variables are always between $0$ and $1$, but also the sum of two phase variables is between $0$ and $1$, at a point-wise level. In addition, we use the local Newton approximation and multigrid method to solve this nonlinear numerical scheme, and various numerical results are presented, including the numerical convergence test, positivity-preserving property test, energy dissipation and mass conservation properties.

description: The limiting behavior of the normalized Kähler-Ricci flow for manifolds with positive first Chern class is examined under certain stability conditions. First, it is shown that if the Mabuchi K-energy is bounded from below, then the scalar curvature converges uniformly to a constant. Second, it is shown that if the Mabuchi K-energy is bounded from below and if the lowest positive eigenvalue of the $\bar\partial^\dagger \bar\partial$ operator on smooth vector fields is bounded away from 0 along the flow, then the metrics converge exponentially fast in $C^\infty$ to a Kähler-Einstein metric.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Loligo gahi were collected, by Scientific Observers from the Fisheries Department of the Falkland Islands Government, from bottom trawl samples caught around the Falkland Islands on both commercial and research vessels from January 1994 to November 1995. Samples were taken from both seasons of the commercial fishery in the Falkland Islands (prosecuted south of 51°20'South latitude). In addition, research samples were taken in January, June and November outside the fishing seasons, to provide individuals of a greater size range than would be present in fishery samples alone. A sub-sample of squid were taken from each sample to provide statoliths for age determination by statolith increment analysis. Sea-surface temperature data were derived for an area encompassing the southerly portion of the fishing grounds for Loligo gahi to provide an indicator of seasonal temperature variations for that region. Age data were derived for 486 females and 445 males. Month (or season) of hatch had a strong, significant effect on the length at age relationship of Loligo gahi, demonstrated by the large difference in length at age for squid hatched in the summer and winter. This study provides evidence that increased temperature during a squid's early growth period may markedly accelerate growth giving rise to significant differences in length at age for adult squid hatched at different temperatures.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.The fishery for chokka squid Loligo vulgaris reynaudii in South Africa is managed by means of effort limitation. In practice it takes the form of a licensing system and a closed season implemented at the peak of the spawning season. With the onset of a democratic era for the country in 1994, demands to broaden access to this fishery by previously disadvantaged fishermen increased. An assessment of the current levels of effort was undertaken on the basis of four resource abundance indices. First examination showed contradictory trends, particularly between the commercial catch rate data, which suggested that the stock has been declining, and the biomass estimates from scientific surveys, which suggested a recent increase in resource abundance. Despite the uncertainty in relation to the status of the resource management decisions had to be made. Application of the precautionary principle in this context is examined .
Studies on the effect of radiation on 3T3 cell motility
Creators: name: Thurston, Gavin O.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The ability of mammalian cells to locomote is important in a variety of normal and pathological processes. Previous work has suggested that low doses of x-irradiation may perturb cell motility, a finding that may have important consequences in embryogenesis, cancer metastasis, and immune response. This thesis has sought to study in more detail the effect of radiation on mammalian cell motility. Work performed in other laboratories used the colloidal gold assay and time lapse cinemicroscopy to study x-irradiation induced changes to 3T3 fibroblast motility in tissue culture. These studies were repeated here, with qualitative results similar to those reported earlier. However, these methods were not amenable to a detailed quantitative analysis. For this, spatial and temporal information on the motility and dynamic morphology of a large number of cells is required. Such a task would be impossible to perform manually, thus an automated microscope system was developed that used a computer-driven precision stage and a solid state optical sensor to track individual cells in tissue culture. Information on motility and morphology was concurrently extracted from many cells. As part of the thesis, several techniques were developed to analyze and display these data, and to correlate motility and morphology observations. These techniques were directed at preserving the actual process of 3T3 cell motility, and parameters were measured to quantify the short term persistence of cell movement (on a time scale of 0.5 to 2 hours), and the long term persistence of cells in maintaining certain characteristic behaviour (on a time scale of 3 to 12 hours). The response of 3T3 fibroblasts to x-irradiation was characterized by a number of parameters. The population average cell speed was measured following treatment, and a dose response and time response was determined in the range of 1.5 Gy. Other motility parameters indicate that the normal process of cell motility, evidenced by a series of motile segments, was disrupted by x-rays. This was thought to reflect perturbation to the control mechanisms of cell motility. The morphology of 3T3 cells stained with Coomassie blue was examined in an effort to correlate the observed motility changes with changes in the fixed cell morphology. This stain is a general structural protein stain with higher affinity toward microfilaments. High doses of x-rays were required to produce significant perturbation to cell morphology, and in the dose regime of interest, the morphology of irradiated cells was not identifiably different from control. Of note is that it was the well spread, quiescent cells that seemed least perturbed by large doses of irradiation. In summary, x-rays apparently disrupt the normal process of cell motility. Several lines of evidence suggest that actively migrating cells are the most perturbed by irradiation. This work has developed techniques to quantify cell motility in a meaningful way, and to characterize the x-ray induced perturbations.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Marine ecosystems are collections of abiotic and biotic factors, hierarchically arrayed, and inclined toward interaction. Taking into account that parasites represent far more than half of all animal species (Rohde, 1980) and cephalopods occur in all oceans of the world (Boyle, 1990), the occurrence of a particular marine parasite in any cephalopod species anywhere will depend on the presence of a suitable definitive host(s), suitable intermediate host(s), suitable paratenic host(s) (which help to fill up . the ecological gap in the parasite life cycle), and complex biological factors which afford a strict interdependency on the organisms comprising the host-parasite systems.

description: Numerous experimental data on the rapid solidification of binary systems exhibit the formation of metastable solid phases with the initial (nominal) chemical composition. This fact is explained by complete solute trapping leading to diffusionless (chemically partitionless) solidification at a finite growth velocity of crystals. Special attention is paid to developing a model of rapid solidification which describes a transition from chemically partitioned to diffusionless growth of crystals. Analytical treatments lead to the condition for complete solute trapping which directly follows from the analysis of the solute diffusion around the solid-liquid interface and atomic attachment and detachment at the interface. The resulting equations for the flux balance at the interface take into account two kinetic parameters: diffusion speed $V_{DI}$ on the interface and diffusion speed $V_D$ in bulk phases. The model describes experimental data on nonequilibrium solute partitioning in solidification of Si-As alloys [M.J. Aziz et al., J. Cryst. Growth {\bf 148}, 172 (1995); Acta Mater. {\bf 48}, 4797 (2000)] for the whole range of solidification velocity investigated.

The present paper refers to fisheries in the North Sea, west coast of Scotland, English Channel and eastern Mediterranean. Fishery and survey data on cephalopod abundance, and environmental data (temperature, salinity, bathymetry, sediments, currents etc.) from 1980 onwards have been entered into the system. The GIS systems are now in use to examine spatial and temporal trends in abundance of fished cephalopods in the northern NE Atlantic.

description: Η ποιμαντορία του Μακαριστού Αρχιεπισκόπου Βορείου & Νοτίου Αμερικής Κυρού Μιχαήλ στο πηδάλιο της Ελληνορθόδοξου Εκκλησίας της Αμερικής, διαδραμάτισε σημαντικό ρόλο στην προ¬σπάθεια πνευματικής αναγεννήσεώς της σε εθνικό, θρησκευτικό, εκκλησιαστικό και κοινωνικό επίπεδο. Μάλιστα, θα μπορούσαμε να πούμε με βεβαιότητα, ότι στο πρόσωπό του ενσαρκώθηκαν οι αρχές και οι ιδέες που διέπνεαν την προσπάθεια αυτή με βάση την Ορθόδοξο πίστη και διδασκαλία αφ’ ενός, και την Ελληνική γλώσσα και τα Ελληνικά ιδεώδη αφ’ ετέρου. Η παρούσα εργασία εξετάζει το ποιμαντορικό έργο του Μιχαήλ, δίνοντας έμφαση σε θέματα Πνευματικής Ζωής, Λατρείας και Ιεραποστολής, και αναδεικνύει τον θεολογικό του λόγο και την Ελληνορθόδοξο Εκκλησιαστική προσέγγιση. Θέματα, τα οποία αποτέλεσαν καθοριστικό παράγοντα στην αναζωπύρωση της θρησκευτικής συνειδήσεως και του εκκλησιαστικού φρονήματος των Ελλήνων ομογενών, όπως επίσης, και των θρησκευτικών διαστάσεων της Ελληνορθόδοξου Εκκλησίας της Αμερικής ως οργανώσεως και ως σώματος του Ιησού Χριστού κατά την ποιμαντορία του Μιχαήλ.
description: The pastorate of the Blessed Archbishop Michael of North & South America at the helm of the Greek Orthodox Church of America played an important role in the effort of its spiritual rebirth in national, religious, ecclesiastical and social level. In fact, we could say with certainty that in his character embodied the principles and ideas that inspired this effort based on the Orthodox faith and teaching on the one hand, and the Greek language and the Greek ideals on the other hand. The present work examines the pastoral work of Archbishop Michael, focusing on issues of Spiritual Life, Worship and Mission, and highlighting his theological thought and Greek Orthodox Ecclesiastical perspective – issues – which constitute a decisive factor in the revitalization of the religious conscience and ecclesiastical mindset of the Greek Omogeneia, as also, and the religious dimensions of the Greek Orthodox Church of America as organization and as body of Jesus Christ during the time of Archbishop Michael’s pastorate.

description: Friedel oscillation is a well-known wave phenomenon, which represents the oscillatory response of electron waves to imperfection. By utilizing the pseudospin-momentum locking in gapless graphene, two recent experiments demonstrate the measurement of the topological Berry phase by corresponding to the unique number of wavefront dislocations in Friedel oscillations. Here, we study the Friedel oscillations in gapped graphene, in which the pseudospin-momentum locking is broken. Unusually, the wavefront dislocations do occur as that in gapless graphene, which expects the immediate verification in the current experimental condition. The number of wavefront dislocations is ascribed to the invariant pseudospin winding number in gaped and gapless graphene. This study deepens the understanding of correspondence between topological quantity and wavefront dislocations in Friedel oscillations, and implies the possibility to observe the wavefront dislocations of Friedel oscillations in intrinsic gapped two-dimensional materials, e.g., transition metal dichalcogenides.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.In the East English Channel (ICES div. 7D) Loliginid landings from the French Trawler Fishery have been collected on catch-by-square basis (0.5° latitude x 1° longitude). In this area and in October, squid catches have also been recorded during the Channel Ground Fish Surveys carried out since 1993. The present study compares in the period 1993-1996 abundance indexes derived from the Commercial Fishery (LPUE) and from CGFS catches. In both data sets global abundance estimates are biased because of the heterogeneous allocation of fishing effort. Stratified indexes show similar inter-annual trends which suggest that commercial trawlers data can be used to describe abundance. Research survey samples provide detailed information on spatial patterns of stock structure. In spite of high inter-annual changes in species proportion Loligo vulgaris recruitment seems to occur in coastal waters and Loligoforbesi dominates offshore. In spite of possible differences in gear selectivity an attempt is made to apply species proportion observed in CGFS data to commercial landings.
Triple proton coincidences following pion absorption in helium
Creators: name: McAlister, John
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: An experimental investigation of the absorption reaction ⁴He(π⁺,ppp) has been undertaken on the M11 beamline at the TRIUMF cyclotron. Positive pions at an average kinetic energy of 165 MeV were directed onto a cylindrical liquid 4He target and the outgoing protons were measured by a combination of two time-of-flight arrays and two plastic scintillator telescopes. A description of the apparatus, experimental technique and calibration is presented. Results from triple proton coincidences at a single orientation of three of the detectors are discussed. Their angular settings with respect to the pion beam were 40°, 136° and —55°. Comparisons are made with Monte-Carlo simulations of three and four body phase spaces. Identification of a quasi-free three nucleon absorption mode is made for the first time at this energy. An integrated cross-section for this process is determined (σQ₃N = 4.4 ± 0.6mb). The quantitative agreement between these results and those of another recent experiment¹ indicate that a small fraction(≈10%) of the coincidences could be due to a two step absorption mechanism. ¹Backenstoss et al.

Subjects: Ecosystem observation, processes and dynamics

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Ommastraephid squids are only a minor component of French Cephalopod production. This resource is mainly a by-catch for trawlers operating in the Northern Bay of Biscay and Celtic sea. This poster introduces the first analysis of the resource. French trawlers LPUE underline the offshore distribution pattern with highest abundance at the shelf edge. In 1996 abundance peaked in spring and autumn. Biological sampling of Le Guilvinec landings provide a preliminary description of the stock structure. In the period November 1997 - May 1998, the proportion of Illex coindetii (75%) and Todaropsis eblanae (25%) looks rather constant, juvenile recruitment is observed in winter and sexual maturation occurs in spring. Sex-related differences in growth and size at maturity in Illex coindetii are in agreement with previous published data from the Galician coast.

description: To describe the characteristics, healthcare resource use and costs associated with initial hospitalization and readmissions among pediatric patients with COVID-19 in the US. Hospitalized pediatric patients, 0–11 years of age, with a primary or secondary discharge diagnosis code for COVID-19 (ICD-10 code U07.1) were selected from 1 April 2020 to 30 September 2021 in the US Premier Healthcare Database Special Release (PHD SR). Patient characteristics, hospital length of stay (LOS), in-hospital mortality, hospital costs, hospital charges, and COVID-19-associated readmission outcomes were evaluated and stratified by age groups (0–4, 5–11), four COVID-19 disease progression states based on intensive care unit (ICU) and invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) usage, and three sequential calendar periods. Sensitivity analyses were performed using the US HealthVerity claims database and restricting the analyses to the primary discharge code. Among 4,573 hospitalized pediatric patients aged 0–11 years, 68.0% were 0–4 years and 32.0% were 5–11 years, with a mean (median) age of 3.2 (1) years; 56.0% were male, and 67.2% were covered by Medicaid. Among the overall study population, 25.7% had immunocompromised condition(s), 23.1% were admitted to the ICU and 7.3% received IMV. The mean (median) hospital LOS was 4.3 (2) days, hospital costs and charges were $14,760 ($6,164) and $58,418 ($21,622), respectively; in-hospital mortality was 0.5%. LOS, costs, charges, and in-hospital mortality increased with ICU admission and/or IMV usage. In total, 2.1% had a COVID-19-associated readmission. Study outcomes appeared relatively more frequent and/or higher among those 5–11 than those 0–4. Results using the HealthVerity data source were generally consistent with main analyses. This retrospective administrative database analysis relied on coding accuracy and inpatient admissions with validated hospital costs. These findings underscore that children aged 0–11 years can experience severe COVID-19 illness requiring hospitalization and substantial hospital resource use, further supporting recommendations for COVID-19 vaccination.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Although there have been numerous studies on diets of fish from European waters, they are often of little use when estimating the impact of fish predation on cephalopod resources. This is due either to the origin of the fish sampled, e.g. from areas with a relatively low cephalopod abundance, or to the method of prey identification: cephalopods are rarely identified to species This paper presents new results on cephalopod species in the diet of commercially important fish species using stomach contents sampling. Samples of demersal fish from the English Channel and around Scotland were collected opportunistically during research trawl surveys, complemented by commercial trawler samples. Fish diets were dominated by fish and crustacean prey and the proportion of cephalopods was extremely low, with commercially important cephalopod species absent from the vast majority of stomachs sampled. Many of the cephalopods found in stomachs were species of little or no commercial interest, and small adult body size, such asSepiolidae andAlloteuthis spp. At present the sampling does not cover all seasons of the year and, in particular, there are no samples from the winter peak in squid landings. Further sampling during this period is planned. The use of data on cephalopod consumption to improve estimates of natural mortality is discussed.
