Shannon, Deborah L. "The Fisherman." FIU Digital Commons, 2012. http://digitalcommons.fiu.edu/etd/584.
Full textAbstract:
THE FISHERMAN, a novel set during Prohibition, explores the relationships of the Constanin family in St. Pierre, a French fishing village on the island of St. Pierre et Miquelon in the North Atlantic. The novel depicts the family’s proud Basque fishing traditions, the struggle between father and son, the perils of life on a 120-foot rum-running schooner, and the pursuit of a mob boss through the mean streets of New York City. It is a first-person, historical narrative set in multiple locations. It is a character-driven story like The Kite Runner, but with the attention to rich historical detail akin to Water for Elephants. THE FISHERMAN recreates another time, place and practice–in this case, the grueling lives of cod fisherman in the North Atlantic. In the end, Daniel discovers that he is indeed a fisherman. He becomes the man he hoped he would be–his father’s son.

Full textAbstract:
The scene of a local motorcycle taxi driver hand-knitting a small fishing net at his stand next to a canal will never fade away from my childhood memory. It was the first time I saw the life behind the fishing net. Throughout my textile practice, I’ve reconsidered the fishing net with curiosity and nostalgia. Behind its mesh and diamond shaped structure, I see craftsmanship and the story of its creation. I would like to preserve and encourage these precious values in the net with my Master project Sitting with The Fisherman. The fishing net is reinterpreted to everyday life with a trace of stories within it. The net becomes a tool to gather people together like the fishing net does in the fisherman village. This project will be a pilot idea to others in different contexts, to preserve their precious traditional craftsmanship, to keep it alive by transforming the skill and technique to a new interpretation.

L'etude que nous avons entreprise couvre un volet narratif et un autre semantique. Le premier consiste a organiser le materiau choisi selon les quatre parametres du schema narratif : la manipulation, la competence, la performance et la sanction, dans l'esquisse de chacune de ces phases, nous avons essaye de mettre en evidence l'originalite de notre recit. Pour enrichir la signification degagee par l'examen narratif, nous avons entame l'analyse de quelques elements de la composante semantique. Notre attention etait retenue par les parcours figuratifs, les configurations discursives qu'ils realisent et enfin la composition thematique des acteurs. Pour mieux mettre en lumiere l'originalite de notre texte, qui fait du desir individuel une voix devine par opposition au code ethico-religieux. Nous avons aussi articule notre recit selon les trois niveaux de l'analyse semantique : le figuratif, le thematique et l'axiologique (nous en avons conclu le principal theme autour duquel se constitue la signification de notre recit : respect transgression). Enfin, nous avons entrepris une approche de la dimension spatiale dans son rapport avec la quete de l'independance sollicitee par le sujet. Cette analyse nous a permis de degager l'ideologie de l'enonciateur qui survalorise le systeme de valeurs hedonistiques et esthetiques a celui de l'ethiqueThis piece of work is a practical semiotic approach to oscar wilde's tale "the fisherman and his soul. I have restricted my analysis to the enonce. This application is essentially divided into two parts : the first one is a narrative approach devoted to the investigation of the four phases which constitute the narrative schema. Manipulation, competence, performance and sanction. The second part, on the other hand, is centered around the semantic level withafocus on the figurative paths, the discursive configurations and finally the thematic composition of the major actors. I have also articulated the tale according to the three dimensions of the semantic analysis : figurative, thematic and axiologic levels in order to shed light upon the major semantic oppositions in the text. The semantic part is concluded by an approach to the dimensions of space in its relations with the quest for independence. All these levels of analysis are meant to consider the enonciator's ideology in the chosen text. In such a way we grasp the elementary signification of our tale : the very aim of semiotics

To understand the inner workings of a 4-stroke engine and all of its components, a complete computer aided design (CAD) model was created of a historic marine engine. The parts were cleaned, measured, modeled in CAD and assembled. To ensure longevity of the rebuilt engine, original parts were repaired and, where necessary, new parts were fabricated. Fixing parts and post machining new castings allowed for machining practice on complex rough castings. The rebuilt engine was tested and successfully ran approximately seventy five years after this engine was first built.

O foco desta dissertação recai sobre os múltiplos usos e apropriações de um espaço - o barracão de pesca - através de uma situação específica: o conflito envolvendo pescadores que exercem diferentes artes de pesca e barraqueiros, na Praia de Piratininga, em Niterói (RJ). Primeiramente, a partir do trabalho de campo, descrevo a localidade e os atores envolvidos, assim como as disputas que ocorrem na praia, sobretudo com a aproximação do verão. Em um segundo momento, tento responder, com o auxílio de conceitos e teorias, as questões suscitadas pela pesquisa empírica, que dizem respeito à noção de espaço público no Brasil, as representações sobre a praia, os interesses em jogo e os sentidos atribuídos a esse lugar. Finalizo com uma análise interpretativa do conflito que permeia a estrutura política do grupo e dos mecanismos utilizados para administrá-lo.
The focus of this master thesis lies on the multiple uses and appropriations regarding a space - the fishing shed - through a specific situation: the conflict involving fishermen who practice different fishing gear and barraqueiros, in Piratininga Beach, Niterói, RJ. Firstly, from the fieldwork, I describe the locality and the actors involved, as well as the disputes that occur on the beach, especially as summer approaches. Posteriorly, I try to answer, through concepts and theories, the questions raised by empirical research, regarding the notion of public space in Brazil, the representations about the beach, the interests at stake and the meanings attributed to that place. Finally, I conclude with an interpretive analysis of the conflict that is present in the political structure of the group and the mechanisms used to manage it.

Full textAbstract:
On March 10, 1957, the United States Army Corps of Engineers completed The Dalles Dam and inundated Celilo Falls, the oldest continuously inhabited site in North America and a cultural and economic hub for Indigenous people. In the negotiation of treaties between the United States, nearly one hundred years earlier, Indigenous leaders reserved access to Columbia River fishing sites as they ceded territory and retained smaller reservations. In the years before the dam’s completion, leaders, many of who were the descendants of earlier treaty signatories, attempted to stop the dam and protect both fishing sites from the encroachment of state and federal regulations and archaeological sites from destruction. This study traces the work of Wilson Charley, a Native fisherman, a member of the Yakama Nation’s Tribal Council, and great-grandson of one of the 1855 treaty signatories. More broadly, this study places Indigenous actors on a twentieth-century Columbia River while demonstrating that they played active roles in the protest and management of areas affected by The Dalles Dam.
Using previously untapped archival sources—a substantial cache of letters—my analysis illustrates that Charley articulated multiple strategies to fight The Dalles Dam and regulations to curtail Native’s treaty fishing rights. Aiming to protect the 1855 treaty and stop The Dalles Dam, Charley created Native-centered regulatory agencies. He worked directly with politicians and supported political candidates, like Richard Neuberger, that favored Native concerns. He attempted to build partnerships with archaeologists and landscape preservationists concerned about losing the area’s rich cultural sites. Even after the dam’s completion, he conceptualized multiple tribal economic development plans that would allow for Natives’ cultural and economic survival.
Given the national rise of technological optimism and the willingness for the federal government to terminate its relationship with federally recognized tribes, Charley realized that taking the 1855 treaty to court was too risky for the political climate of the 1950s. Instead, he framed his strategies in the language of twentieth-century conservation, specifically to garner support from a national audience of non-natives interested in protecting landscapes from industrial development. While many of these non-native partners ultimately failed him, his strategies are noteworthy for three reasons. First, he cast the fight to uphold Native treaty rights in terms that were relevant to non-natives, demonstrating his complex understanding of the times in which he lived. Second, his strategies continued an ongoing struggle for Natives to fish at their treaty-protected sites, thereby documenting an overlooked period between the fishing rights cases of the turn of the twentieth century and the 1960s and 1970s. Charley left a lasting legacy that scholars have not recognized because many of his visionary ideas came to fruition decades later. Finally, my analysis of Charley’s letters also documents personal details that afford readers the unique perspective of one Indigenous person navigated through a tumultuous period in the Pacific Northwest and Native American history.

This study aims to examine the policy of insurance closures and strategies of social reproduction of the mode of life of fishermen of the town of Cai n‟ Água , in the Paraná Manaquiri , Manaquiri municipality , the state of Amazonas . Therefore, it was necessary to identify the historical process of creating a secure closure as public policy in the fisheries sector , highlighting how this policy has been effecting the context of fishing in the Amazon ; Identify the strategies of social reproduction of the livelihoods of fishermen , observing influences insurance closed this way of life and to analyze the effectiveness of the policy of closure , since it proposes environmental protection - the fish and the social and material reproduction of the fisherman. It was concluded that , for the residents of that locality, unemployment insurance fisherman's craft contributes to the maintenance of the families at the time of closure , but it is necessary that measures are adopted for educational and informational purposes to guide recipients as to the real purpose of this period where fishing is prohibited , otherwise the benefit takes only one profile and welfare loses its main objective, the conservation of the species .
O presente estudo objetiva analisar a política do seguro defeso e as estratégias de reprodução social do modo de vida dos pescadores artesanais da localidade do Cai n‘Água, no Paraná do Manaquiri, município de Manaquiri, interior do Estado do Amazonas. Para tanto, foi necessário identificar o processo histórico de criação do seguro defeso como política pública no setor pesqueiro, destacando como essa política vem se efetivando no contexto da pesca na Amazônia; Identificar as estratégias de reprodução social do modo de vida dos pescadores artesanais, observando as influências do seguro defeso nesse modo de vida e analisar a efetividade da política do defeso, uma vez que esta propõe a defesa do ambiente - o peixe e a reprodução social e material do pescador. Concluiu-se que, para os moradores daquela localidade, o seguro desemprego do pescador artesanal contribui para a manutenção das famílias no período do defeso, porém é necessário que sejam adotadas medidas de caráter informativo e educativo para orientar os beneficiários quanto à real finalidade deste período em que a pesca é proibida, caso contrário o benefício assume apenas um perfil assistencialista e perde seu objetivo principal, a conservação das espécies.

Entre as temporalidades de diferentes processos locais, este estudo etnográfico aprofunda-se em entender como esses diferentes ritmos relacionam-se e modulam as atividades de pescadores e de outros habitantes (humanos e não-humanos) na vila do Pontal do Leste - Ilha do Cardoso, Cananeia - SP. Relações essas sempre em processo de co-constituição, co-respondencia, co-evolução entre humanos e não-humanos, nunca formados e preexistentes de antemão. As percepções desses processos são fundamentais para o entendimento do comportamento de alguns animais não-humanos e plantas, das condições de tempo, da geomorfologia insular e da ecologia eólico-hídrica local, resultando em caracterizações sensíveis, que serão desdobradas nessa etnografia. Portanto, nessa malha de relações composta por paisagens multiespécies, onde diversas linhas de movimentos são traçadas por seres e processos, o intuito deste estudo foi descrever como essas linhas encontram-se e contaminam-se. E, acima de tudo, como esses encontros são traduzidos pelos habitantes e visitantes da vila.Among the temporalities of different local processes, this ethnographic study deepens in understanding how these different rhythms relate and modulate the activities of fishermen and other inhabitants (human and non-human) in the village of Pontal do Leste - Cardoso Island, Cananeia - SP. These relations are always in the process of co-constitution, coresponse, co-evolution between humans and nonhumans never formed and preexisting inadvance. The perceptions of these processes are fundamental to the understanding of the behavior of some non-human animals and plants, of the weather conditions, insular geomorphology and local wind-hydric ecology, resulting in sensitive characterizations that will be unfolded in this ethnography. Therefore, in this meshwork of relationships composed of multispecies landscapes, where several lines of movement are traced by beings and processes, the purpose of this study was to describe how these lines meet and become contaminated. And, above all, how these meetings are translated by the inhabitants and visitors of the village.

principalmente nos estudos do pesquisador brasileiro Ubiratan D’Ambrósio e de outros
estudiosos, que difundem as ideias Etnomatemáticas por meio de seus estudos.
Os recursos metodológicos utilizados nesta pesquisa partiram de uma inspiração

ABSTRACT:
This study aims to identify the formal mathematics in this fishing activity, analyzing if
fishermen practice it consciously. The theoretical framework that based such research
focused mainly on studies of Brazilian researcher Ubiratan D'Ambrosio and other
researchers, who spread the ethnomathematics ideas through their studies. The
methodological tools used in this research started from an ethnographic inspiration
conducted with three fishermen within a fishing community. Regarding the specificity
of the methodological tools used in this study, we have taken through observations,
semi-structured interviews and documentary analysis.
Data analysis was interpretative following an analytical framework, with the intention
to see how the fishermen developed their professional activity and whether they could
relate some of his practice with the mathematical knowledge. In this regard such work
highlights the minimal occurrence of perception of the investigated with respect to the
aggregation of mathematical knowledge to practice their professional activity. This
study also sets out explicitly that this minimum perception is evident on account of the
great dichotomy existing between the source of mathematical knowledge of fishermen,
internalized in their practices, and scientific knowledge present in formal mathematics.

La recherche a pour objet l’étude du statut juridique et social des marins-pêcheurs au Maroc, afin d’envisager des perspectives d’évolution concrètes. Cette catégorie de travailleurs est soumise à autant de risque.Face à ces éléments, les marins-pêcheurs marocains sont entrés dans une période de remise en question et de réflexions sur leur statut social. Cette recherche permet de dresser le constat de ce statut, dont il ressort de nombreuses problématiques qui impactent négativement l’exercice de ce métier.Il résulte de cette étude que le particularisme irréductible du travail dans le secteur de la pêche maritime et l’autonomie du droit du travail maritime ne suffisent plus, à établir une incompatibilité de principe de nature à faire obstacle à l’application de certaines règles du droit du travail terrestre.L’étude réanime un ancien débat législatif et doctrinal relatif à l’autonomie du droit du travail maritime. Elle propose alors plusieurs pistes de réflexion et des solutions concrètes en vue de faire évoluer le statut des marins-pêcheurs dans le cadre d’une autonomie modérée. Un rapprochement et une conciliation entre le droit du travail maritime et le droit du travail terrestre s’avèrent nécessaires, en adéquation avec les besoins recensésThe purpose of the research is to study the legal and social status of fishermen in Morocco in order to predict concrete prospects for evolution. This category of workers is subject to as much risk.Faced with these elements, Moroccan fishermen have entered a period of questioning and reflection on their social status. This research makes it possible to establish the observation of this status, from which many problems emerge which negatively affect the exercise of this profession.It follows from this study that the irreducible particularism of work in the maritime fishing sector and the autonomy of maritime labor law are no longer sufficient to establish an incompatibility of principle likely to hinder the application of certain rules of the land labor law.The study revives an old legislative and doctrinal debate on the autonomy of maritime labor law. It then proposes several avenues for reflection and concrete solutions to change the status of fishermen and sailors within the framework of a moderate autonomy. A rapprochement and a conciliation between the maritime labor law and the labor law are necessary, in adequacy with the identified needs

Water is a common resource, essential to life and an increasingly threatened natural source, both for its inappropriate use as by pollution caused by different anthropogenic activities. Fishing is one of the activities dependent on good water quality, and has an important role in the economy and livelihoods of many populations. The Mumbaba River is the major tributary of the left bank of the River Gramame, Gramame River watershed, going through the industrial district of João Pessoa, PB, and has sections framing in Classes 1, 2 and 3. The Mumbaba River suffers from industrial pollution and degradation year after year, without an effective control on the part of government, and is still used for the practice of fishing. This study aims to evaluate the influence of environmental conditions and impacts on artisanal fisheries in Mumbaba River through the perception of the local fishermen, besides knowing the socioeconomic profile of those who use the river, the uses that are made by these populations, knowledge of fishermen on the diversity of fish, the diversity of fish populations and evaluate quality parameters of the water from this water body. The information on uses of the river and artisanal fisheries were obtained through questionnaires with 25 Mumbaba River users of both sexes, residents of different places, in two years during periods of rain and drought. The methodology for obtaining the information was direct contact with the people at the time of use of the river and the snowball, when an initial informant indicates other possible informants. Most participants were represented by men with more than 50 years, including fishermen, farmers and those who practice other jobs. Most are fishing between 11 and 20 years in 1-2 days a week, with varied paraphernalia. The activity was already widely practiced in the past, but today the river conditions affect the quality and quantity of fish. Several species were cited by respondents as more frequent in Mumbaba River, being tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus Linnaeus, 1758), curimatã (Prochilodus brevis Steindachner, 1875), traíra (Hoplias malabaricus Bloch, 1794) and peacock (Cicla ocellaris Bloch & Schneider, 1801). The water quality has been known through the analysis of physical-chemical parameters and nutrients listed on 4 sampling points, 3 in Rio Mumbaba (P1, P2 and P3) and 1 in the Horse Pond (P4), next to the river. From these sampling points, the one which showed better environmental conditions was the P4, while the P3 showed the worst, as a direct reflection of the entry of industrial effluents in the vicinity. The fish fauna was also collected in the same points, whereas in P1 there was no catch, due the little depth. The composition of the fish fauna showed 69 individuals belonging to 3 orders, 7 families and 12 species, 9 native, 2 allochthonous and 1 exotic. The diversity and species richness showed variation between the sampling points, the P4 showed the higher values (H =1,991; D=2,693), followed by P2 (H =1,847; D= 2,652) and P3 (H =0,5671; D=0,9854). Based in this results it is concluded that it is necessary to further monitoring of this environment by public authorities, in relation to supervision, construction and performance of public policies to protect nature, which will lead to improvement in the quality of the environment and the consequent maintenance of species and activities practiced by people like fishing
A água é um bem comum essencial à vida e um recurso natural cada vez mais ameaçado, tanto por seu uso inadequado quanto pela poluição causada pelas diferentes atividades antrópicas. A pesca é uma das atividades dependentes da boa qualidade da água, e possui um importante papel na economia e subsistência de muitas populações. O Rio Mumbaba é um importante afluente da margem esquerda do Rio Gramame, bacia do Rio Gramame, PB, que corta o Distrito Industrial de João Pessoa, PB, e possui trechos de enquadramento de qualidade nas Classes 1, 2 e 3. O Rio Mumbaba sofre com a poluição industrial e a degradação ano após ano, sem que haja um controle efetivo por parte de poder público, e ainda é utilizado para a prática da pesca. Este trabalho tem como objetivo avaliar a influência das condições ambientais e dos impactos na pesca artesanal no Rio Mumbaba por meio da percepção dos pescadores locais, além de conhecer o perfil socioeconômico dos que utilizam o rio, os usos que são feitos por essas populações, o conhecimento dos pescadores sobre a ecologia dos peixes, a diversidade da ictiofauna e avaliar os parâmetros de qualidade da água deste corpo aquático. As informações sobre os usos do rio e a pesca artesanal foram obtidas através de questionários aplicados com 25 usuários do Rio Mumbaba de ambos os sexos, moradores de diferentes locais, em dois anos, em períodos de chuva e estiagem. A metodologia utilizada para a obtenção das informações foi o contato direto com as pessoas no momento de uso do rio e o snowball, em que um informante inicial indica outros possíveis informantes. A maioria dos participantes foi representada por homens com mais de 50 anos, dentre eles pescadores, agricultores e que possuem outras ocupações. A maioria pratica a pesca entre 11 e 20 anos e de 1 a 2 dias na semana, com apetrechos variados. A atividade já foi muito praticada no passado, mas atualmente as condições do rio comprometem a qualidade e quantidade do pescado. Diversas espécies foram citadas pelos entrevistados como mais frequentes no Mumbaba, sendo elas a tilápia (Oreochromis niloticus Linnaeus, 1758), curimatã (Prochilodus brevis Steindachner, 1875), traíra (Hoplias malabaricus Bloch, 1794) e tucunaré (Cicla ocellaris Bloch & Schneider, 1801). A qualidade da água foi conhecida através da análise dos parâmetros físico-químicos e de nutrientes, coletados em 4 pontos, sendo 3 no Rio Mumbaba (P1, P2 e P3) e 1 na Lagoa dos Cavalos (P4), ao lado do rio. Destes pontos, o que apresentou melhores condições ambientais foi o P4, enquanto o P3 apresentou as piores, como reflexo direto da entrada de efluentes industriais nas imediações. A ictiofauna também foi conhecida com coletas nos mesmos pontos, sendo que no P1 não houve captura, pela pouca profundidade. A composição da ictiofauna apresentou 69 indivíduos, distribuídos em 3 ordens, 7 famílias e 12 espécies, sendo 9 nativas, 2 alóctones e 1 exótica. A diversidade e a riqueza de espécies apresentou variação entre os pontos, sendo o P4 o que apresenta maiores valores (H =1,991; D=2,693), seguido pelo P2 (H = 1,847; D=2,652) e P3 (H =0,5671; D= 0,9854). Diante destes resultados conclui-se que se faz necessário um maior acompanhamento deste ambiente por parte do poder público, no tocante à fiscalização, elaboração e cumprimento de políticas públicas de proteção à natureza, que irão acarretar a melhoria na qualidade do ambiente e a consequente manutenção das espécies e das atividades praticadas pelas populações como a pesca

The traditional fishing with rafts is characterized by unpredictability, high stakes and inadequate work conditions. The extensive working hours, physical wear, inadequate nutrition, unsanitary conditions, lack of salvage equipment and instruments suitable working, added by the presence of changes in the nutritional status of fisherman, that contribute to the picture of insecurity in high seas, injuries and health. This study aimed to analyze the activity of the fisherman s from Ponta Negra, Natal / RN, and check the conditions of supply of these fishermen and their implications on health and development of their work. To this finality, was used a methodology based on the ergonomic work analysis employing techniques such as observational and interactional conversational action, listening to the answers, observation protocols, photographic and video records. The script conversational dynamic action was developed from literature searches about the artisanal fisheries, culture and food habits of this population, and analyzes the overall situation of focus and two reference situations. To collect data on the usual diet of fisherman as well as quantitative and qualitative analysis that was used for data analysis and 24h recall the Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ). The impact of this power to the health of fisherman was evaluated performing a nutritional assessment. The results revealed that the fishermen carry out their activities with poor working conditions, health and nutrition. Feeding practices of these fishermen undertake development work, making it even more stressful, as well contributing to the emergence of Chronic Noncommunicable Diseases. The management of the activity, as well as the current structure of the vessel, also contributes to the adoption of inappropriate feeding practices during the shipment of catch. The results of this indicate the need for adequate interventions in order to assist in recovery and / or maintenance of health of fisherman minimizing reflections of nutritional disorders for the development activity by improving the quality of life in this population
A pesca artesanal com jangadas ? caracterizada por imprevisibilidade, altos riscos e condi??es inadequadas de trabalho. As extensas jornadas de trabalho, o desgaste f?sico, alimenta??o inadequada, condi??es de higiene prec?rias, aus?ncia de equipamentos de salvatagem e de instrumentos de trabalhos adequados, somadas a presen?as de altera??es no estado nutricional dos jangadeiros, contribuem para o quadro de inseguran?a em alto mar e agravos a sa?de. O presente estudo teve como objetivo analisar a atividade de trabalho dos jangadeiros de Ponta Negra, Natal/RN, e verificar as condi??es de alimenta??o destes pescadores e suas implica??es na sa?de e desenvolvimento do trabalho. Para tanto, utilizou-se de uma metodologia baseada na An?lise Ergon?mica do Trabalho que emprega t?cnicas interacionais e observacionais como a??o conversacional, escuta das verbaliza??es, protocolos de observa??o, registros fotogr?ficos e v?deos. O roteiro din?mico da a??o conversacional foi elaborado a partir de pesquisas bibliogr?ficas sobre a pesca artesanal, cultura e h?bitos alimentares desta popula??o e, an?lises globais na situa??o de foco e em duas situa??es de refer?ncia. Para a coleta de dados sobre a dieta habitual dos jangadeiros, bem como a an?lise quantitativa e qualitativa desta, utilizou-se como instrumento metodol?gico o Recordat?rio 24h e o Question?rio de Frequ?ncia Alimentar (QFA). As repercuss?es desta alimenta??o para a sa?de dos jangadeiros foi avaliada realizando-se uma avalia??o nutricional. Como resultados constatou-se que os jangadeiros desenvolvem suas atividades com prec?rias condi??es de trabalho, sa?de e alimenta??o. As pr?ticas alimentares destes pescadores comprometem o desenvolvimento do trabalho, tornandoo ainda mais desgastante, al?m de contribuir para o surgimento de Doen?as Cr?nicas n?o Transmiss?veis. A gest?o da atividade , bem como a estrutura atual da embarca??o, tamb?m contribuem para a ado??o de pr?ticas alimentares inadequadas durante a expedi??o de captura. Os resultados deste estudo apontam para a necessidade interven??es adequadas de forma a auxiliar na recupera??o e/ou manuten??o do estado de sa?de dos jangadeiros minimizando os reflexos dos dist?rbios nutricionais para o desenvolvimento da atividade melhorando a qualidade de vida desta popula??o

Previous issue date: 2009-02-18In the present study, the commercial fishing potential of the municipality of Coari, Amazonas, Brazil, was evaluated based on the characterization of the regional fleet and also by the fishing landing from the period of December 1st, 2007 to November 30th, 2008. The characterization of the fleet was based on the interview of 217 fishermen e vessel owners. They identified 41 boats and 176 motorized canoes. Among these, a pattern was found in their length (canoes ≤ 10m; boats ≤ 17m), fishing storage capacity (canoes ≤ 2t, boats ≤ 10t) and displacement capacity based on their engine propulsion power (canoe > 5,5HP; boat > 30HP). This information brought together estimates the region s fishing potential and its efficiency when this is crossed with the fishing landing in kilos. Other factors that contribute to the characterization of the activity are the exploited environment, the major tools used in fisheries and the target species. It was registered 311 landings near the municipal market (community commercial place) during the year. A total of 1.014.078 kg of fish was catched with a month average of 84,506 kg (+23,944), in which the maximum amount was 129,681 kg in May 2008 and a minimum of 55,884 kg in January 2008. An amount of 35 species or groups of species was registered. The major component species of the total catch were jaraqui (Semaprochilodus spp.) (26,90%), curimatã (Prochilodus nigricans) (14,07%), tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) (9,70%) and aruanã (Osteoglossum bicirrhosum) (6,71%). This group was responsible for 57,38% of the total fish catched in the studied period.
Neste estudo, foi avaliado o potencial da pesca comercial no município de Coari, Amazonas, Brasil, por meio da caracterização da frota que atua na região e do desembarque pesqueiro realizado no período de 1 de Dezembro de 2007 a 30 de Novembro de 2008. A frota foi caracterizada com base nas entrevistas de 217 pescadores e donos de embarcação, os quais identificaram a atuação de 41 barcos e 176 canoas motorizadas. Estas embarcações apresentaram um padrão com relação ao comprimento (canoas ≤ 10m; barcos ≤ 17m), capacidade de armazenamento de pescado (canoas ≤ 2t; barcos ≤ 10t) e capacidade de deslocamento com potência média de motores de propulsão de 5,5hp para as canoas e de 30hp para os barcos. Estas informações associadas estimam o potencial pesqueiro da região e sua eficiência quando relacionadas ao resultado do desembarque pesqueiro em quilos. Outros fatores como o ambiente explotado, principais apetrechos e espécies-alvo complementam a caracterização da atividade. Foram registrados, ao longo do ano, em média, 311 desembarques no porto próximo ao mercado municipal, local de comercialização do pescado ao consumidor. A produção total de pescado foi de 1.014.078 kg, com média mensal de 84.506 kg (±23.944kg), sendo a máxima de 129.681 kg ocorrida no mês de maio de 2008 e a mínima de 55.884 kg ocorrida no mês de janeiro de 2008. Foram registradas 35 espécies ou grupos de espécies de peixes responsáveis pela composição do desembarque. A produção de pescado em quilos teve como principais representantes o jaraqui (Semaprochilodus spp.) (26,90%), o curimatã (Prochilodus nigricans) (14,07%), o tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) (9,70%) e a aruanã (Osteoglossum bicirrhosum) (6,71%), sendo este grupo responsável por 57,38% do desembarque total efetuado no período estudado.

Full textAbstract:
Auguste Dupouy fut une des grandes figures de la littérature bretonne de la première moitié du XXe siècle. Son écriture est partagée entre des travaux de type universitaires — biographies, études générales sur la littérature, et une écriture plus personnelle — romans, nouvelles, ouvrages touristiques — où la Bretagne prend la plus large place —. Quel est le point de convergence entre deux activités littéraires aussi différentes ? Tandis que Dupouy émet de lui une image relativement lisse, il nous semble, au contraire, que dans son oeuvre tout est lutte, tout est conflit géographique. sociologique, celui des passions, des pulsions, des désirs, l’oeuvre de Dupouy ne peut s’entendre qu’au son du grand fracas d’une volonté qui se brise contre une autre. Ce travail a pour propos d’exposer comment ce motif s’enchevêtre dans le texte, se développe et comment il porte en lui la source de l’énergie créatrice.L’écriture littéraire révèle et met en oeuvre une tension fondamentale qui se traduit par l’expression de la lutte. L’espace géographique est en proie au combat : les frontières sont assiégées, les territoires en résistance. Les hommes qu’il admire, auxquels il accorde une biographie, sont des personnages contestés, il assure leur défense. Dans les oeuvres de fiction, les fondements de la narration sont le désir de domination et les conséquences dramatiques qui en découlent.Lire l’oeuvre d’Auguste Dupouy, c’est se replonger dans un monde qui a largement disparu celui d’une Bretagne de costumes, de marine â voile et de pain noir. Pourtant, la richesse de son écriture lui donne une véritable place dans l’histoire littéraire, sa lecture nous donne des clefs pour mieux comprendre notre société, mais surtout, par l’image complexe qu’il laisse de l’homme, il participe du grand projet de l’art qui est celui de sonder l’âme humaineAuguste Dupouy was one of the central figures of Brittany’s literature in the first half of the twentieth century. Ris works combine academic writing — biographies and general studies in literature — and more personal writing such as novels. short stories and tourist guide books. in which Brittany is a central element. How do Dupouy’s two distinct literary activities converge? Although Dupouy pictured himself as a conventional character , this writer believes that his work is entirely built on the themes ofstruggle and fight. Whether it be social or territorial disputes or the struggle of passions, urges and desires, Dupouy’s work can only be understood through the clashing of one man’s will against another’s. The present study intends to expose how this motif is interlaced in the text, how it is developped and how it bears the source ofcreative energy.Dupouy’s literary writing reveals and implements a fundamental tension, which finds its expression in struggle. Geographic space is subject to struggle: boundaries are besieged and teiritories are resisting. The men he admired and vhose biographies he chose to write were controversial characters for whose cases he conducted the defence. Tn his fiction, the narrative is based on the desire for domination and the ensuing dramatic consequences.When reading Auguste Dupouy’s workwe immerse ourselves in a bygone world—the days of Bretons in traditional costumes. sailing ships and black bread. Yet the richness ofhis writing confers him a real place in the history ofliterature: reading him gives us some keys to a better understanding of our society and. above alt, as he imparts his complex vision ofman, he partakes in art’s great project fathoming the human soul

Este estudo antropológico trata do universo cultural do trabalho na pesca marítima, em águas salgadas, através de uma experiência etnográfica junto a pescadores de São José do Norte, município situado no sul do Brasil, entre a Lagoa dos Patos e o Oceano Atlântico. A pesquisa de campo foi pautada pela procura em dar sentido às ações e narrativas dos pescadores, sobretudo no que se refere às dimensões de tempo e espaço que orientam o viver entre a terra e o mar. Tais narrativas revelam a problemática acerca da dinamicidade do modo de vida, da questão ambiental e da condição de vulnerabilidade dos pescadores enquanto categoria social, analisadas sob o enfoque da memória e do imaginário em relação a configuração local.This anthropological study deals with cultural meaning of maritime fishing, in salty waters; through an ethnographic experience with the fishermen of São José do Norte, town situated in South of Brazil between the Lagoon (Lagoa dos Patos) and the Atlantic Ocean. The field research was conduced aiming at attribute meaning to the fishermen's narratives and actions, especially focuses on their spatial-temporal dimension that guide life between land and sea. Such narratives revealed the problematic of fishermen's life-style dynamics, the environmental issues related to fishing practice and the fishermen' social vulnerability, and was analyzed based on their memory and imaginary to the local figuration.

Full textAbstract:
Thesis (Masters Diploma(Post School Education))--Peninsula Technikon, Cape Town,1992Electronic navigation systems (ENS) have undergone phenomenal growth and development since the Second World War and there is every indication that it will continue to do so for as long as the threat of war prevails. A positive effect in this rapidly developing science, has been its application commercially, especially in aeronautical systems. To the ENS (Fisherman) course students of the Training Centre for Seamen (TCS), a technical college based in Cape Town, the advent of these modern navigation aids (navaids) made a marked impact on their, previously, simple existence and certain problems with regard to their training became evident. An empirical study, by means of a questionnaire, was thus undertaken in order to identify and possibly solve problems experienced by these students during both the sea-going and college-based phases. Specific areas investigated included, * academic, vocational and socio-economic background * language competency * lack of on-board exposure to instrumentation within junior ranks and * large age differences as well as differing levels of experience and competency in the same class group. In a bid to seek possible solutions, a comparative study was made of similar courses offered by institutions both locally, viz. the Cape Technikon and the South African Navy and abroad, viz. Australia, Denmark, Germany, United Kingdom and United States of America. Structured interviews were also held with ENS (Fisherman) course lecturers, representatives of ship owners and the South African Department of Transport officials to test their opinions with regard to the existing ENS training structures and the associated problems identified. Based on the information obtained in this study, conclusions and recommendations on the following have been made, viz. * Formulation of a new maritime training dispensation for South Africa * In-house training facilities * Academic background of students * Living and working conditions on-board * Heterogenous composition of ENS (Fisherman) class * Amalgamation of existing ENS training resources * On-board training programmes * Formal teaching qualifications * Marketing careers at sea and * Research in maritime education and training

O presente trabalho buscou saber os prejuízos socioambientais decorrentes da eliminação do ecossistema manguezal, e se o Estado de Pernambuco está cumprindo o disposto na legislação ambiental quanto ao andamento do procedimento administrativo para supressão de vegetação considerada de Preservação Permanente. Como hipóteses, a pesquisadora elencou duas: considerando todos os benefícios decorrentes das funções ecológicas do ecossistema manguezal, o estado de Pernambuco perde drasticamente em termos de biodiversidade, que consequentemente desencadeia prejuízos socioambientais; e o Estado de Pernambuco incorre em ilegalidade e inconstitucionalidade na emissão de leis autorizativas para supressão de manguezal, descumprindo ainda princípios do direito ambiental. De acordo com os objetivos da pesquisa, realizou-se uma pesquisa documental/bibliográfica, quanto à legislação protetiva, à administração pública e aos procedimentos administrativos, inclusive ao nível nacional, para autorização de interferência no ecossistema e uma atualização das leis ordinárias com relação à autorização de supressão de áreas de manguezal no site da Assembleia Legislativa do Estado de Pernambuco. Tendo em vista que os pescadores, considerados comunidade tradicional, estão intrinsecamente ligados ao manguezal, foram realizadas 22 entrevistas com pescadores da colônia Z – 8, situada no município de Cabo de Santo Agostinho e 23 entrevistas com pescadoras da colônia Z-12, situada no município de Ipojuca. A atualização das leis autorizativas culminou com o resultado de 601,00 ha de manguezal autorizados a suprimir, o que desencadeou um verdadeiro desastre socioambiental, a partir da violação dos princípios ambientais e as disposições legais referentes.
The present study sought to know the social and environmental losses arising from the removal of mangrove swamp, and the state of Pernambuco is meeting the requirements of environmental legislation when the progress of the administrative procedure for removal of considered Permanent Preservation vegetation. As hypotheses, the researcher has listed two: considering all the benefits of the ecological functions of the mangrove ecosystem, the State of Pernambuco dramatically lose in terms of biodiversity, which in turn sets off sociambientais losses; and the State of Pernambuco incurs illegality and unconstitutionality in issuing authorization laws for suppression of mangrove swamp, still not complying with principles of environmental law. According to the research objectives, there was a documentary /bibliography research, about the protective legislation, public administration and administrative procedures, including the national level to permit interference in the ecosystem and an update to the ordinary laws regarding the authorization of removal of mangrove areas in Pernambuco State Legislative Assembly website. Having in mind that the traditional community - fishermen who are intrinsically linked to the mangrove swamp, there were 22 interviews with fishermen from the Z - 8 colony, located in the municipality of Cabo de Santo Agostinho and 23 interviews with fishers from the Z -12 colony, in the municipality of Ipojuca. Updating authorization acts culminated with the result of 601.00 ha of mangrove swamp allowed to suppress, which triggered a socioenvironmental disaster from the violation of environmental principles and legal provisions concerning.

Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível SuperiorExcessive sunlight exposure can cause several forms of potentially malignant disorders, including actinic cheilitis, a precursor lesion of lip squamous cell carcinoma. The objective of this research was to investigate the actinic cheilitis prevalence among fishermen in the southern coast of Sergipe, Brazil. A cross-sectional study was carried out involving a sample (n = 210) of fishermen on this region. Data related to age, skin type, daily and accumulated solar radiation exposure time, smoking, sun protection and the presence of actinic cheilitis were collected. A Poisson regression model estimated the prevalence ratio of variables. Actinic cheilitis prevalence was 11.4% (95% CI: 7.8 - 16.4%). The disease was more prevalent in fair-skinned fishermen (PR = 3.2), aged 50 years (PR = 2.3), with a time of cumulative exposure to solar radiation more than 30 years (PR = 4.0), duration of daily exposure more than four hours (PR = 8.0) and no using of sun protection (PR = 2.1). In the presence of all independent variables, the probability of finding the disease in a fisherman in this region is 55%. This probability decreases to 6% with the use of sunscreens and with sun exposure of less than four hours daily. Fishermen working at the south coast of Sergipe constitute a population at risk for cancer of the lip, making necessary the establishment of public health policies aimed specifically to encourage the use of sun protection and a lower burden of daily exposure to solar radiation.
A exposição excessiva à radiação solar pode causar várias formas de alterações teciduais cancerizáveis, dentre elas a queilite actínica, uma lesão precursora do carcinoma de células escamosas e de lábio. O objetivo dessa pesquisa foi verificar a prevalência da queilite actínica em pescadores do litoral sul de Sergipe, Brasil. Um estudo transversal foi realizado envolvendo uma amostra (n = 210) de pescadores desta região. Dados relacionados à idade, cor da pele, tempo de exposição diária e acumulada à radiação solar, uso de tabaco, medidas de proteção ao sol e presença de queilite actínica foram coletados. Um modelo de regressão de Poisson foi criado para estimar a razão de prevalência das variáveis. A queilite actínica teve uma prevalência de 11,4% (IC 95%, 7,8 16,4%). A doença foi mais prevalente em pescadores de pele clara (RP = 3,2), com idade superior a 50 anos (RP = 2,3), tempo de exposição acumulada à radiação solar maior do que 30 anos (RP = 4,0); tempo de exposição diária maior do que quatro horas (RP = 8,0) e que não usavam fotoprotetores (RP = 2,1). Na presença de todas as variáveis independentes, a probabilidade de encontrarmos a doença em um pescador nessa região é de 55%. Esta probabilidade decresce para 6% quando do uso de fotoprotetores e uma exposição solar menor do que 4 horas diárias. Os pescadores do litoral sul de Sergipe se constituem em uma população de risco para o câncer de lábio, fazendo-se necessária a implantação de políticas públicas de saúde voltadas especificamente para o estímulo ao uso de fotoprotetores e uma menor carga de exposição diária à radiação solar.

As percepções e os saberes das populações tradicionais vêm conquistando cada vez mais espaço no meio acadêmico e nas instituições governamentais. Tal valorização ganha projeção uma vez que estes grupos apresentam culturas comumente mais conservacionistas e integradas aos locais onde vivem do que a sociedade urbano-industrial, e suas práticas servem de exemplo para a gestão e para a conservação ambiental. Entretanto, a valorização desses saberes ainda é incipiente no que se refere à conservação de áreas naturais, tanto no Brasil quanto no mundo. O presente estudo, através dos fundamentos da Geografia Cultural Humanística, descreve e interpreta a geograficidade e parte dos conhecimentos ambientais dos pescadores do Lago Guaíba, com relação à qualidade das águas, a ictiofauna e os impactos ambientais presentes no manancial. Como parte dos resultados, temos a hierarquização dos principais impactos ambientais presentes no Lago, descritos pelos pescadores. De modo sucinto, os pescadores destacam como o principal degradante do manancial o esgoto doméstico, seguido pelo lixo sobrenadante, a ação das balsas de extração de areia (areeiras), a contaminação de origem industrial e, em quinto e último lugar, a contaminação por agrotóxicos. O estudo apresenta ainda propostas de gerenciamento, por parte dos pescadores e do pesquisador, com o intuito de enriquecer o processo de gestão de suas águas, revalorizando os saberes dos pescadores do delta do rio Jacuí.The perceptions and knowledge of traditional populations are conquering each increasingly space in academic and in government institutions. This valuation gains projection since these groups have crops most commonly integrated conservation and the places where they live than the urban-industrial society, and its practices serve as an example for the management and for environmental conservation. However , the valorization of these knowing is still budding about the conservation of natural areas, both in Brazil as in the world. The present studied, through the foundations of Cultural Geography, describes and interprets the geographical experiences and part of the environmental knowledge of the fishermen of Lake Guaíba, with regard to water quality, fish and environmental impacts in the wealth. As part of the results, we have a hierarchy of the main environmental impacts in the Lake, described by fishermen. In brief, the fishermen out as the main source of degrading the domestic sewage, followed by garbage supernatant, the action of ferries of extraction of sand (bot of sands), the contamination from industry, and in fifth and last place, the contamination by pesticides. The study also presents proposals for management on the part of fishermen and the search in order to enrich the process of managing their water, raising the knowledge of fishermen on the delta of the river Jacuí.

Full textAbstract:
This study surveyed 435 commercial fishermen across eight coastal regions of the United States where commercial fishing takes place. The regions of the study included: Northeast Atlantic, Mid-Atlantic, Southeast Atlantic, Gulf of Mexico, Great Lakes, Southern Pacific, Pacific Northwest, and Alaska. Participants were asked to complete the Commercial Fishing Worker Survey (CFWS), which is a survey instrument consisting of an approved, adapted version of the Index of Learning Styles instrument (ILS) combined with a demographic section which included questions designed to obtain data regarding the four variables of the study: age, education level, captain's license status, and method of fishing. The instrument was designed to provide data sufficient to answer the three research questions of the study.
1. What are the learning preferences of commercial fishermen?
2. Are there differences in the learning preferences of commercial fishermen across the eight geographical regions of the study?
3. Are there differences in the learning preferences of commercial fishermen based on the demographical variables?
The commercial fishermen showed obvious inclinations toward specific learning preference dimensions. The fishermen indicated that they preferred the active (rather than the reflective) dimension, the sensing (rather than the intuitive) dimension, the visual (rather than the verbal) dimension, and the sequential (rather than the global) dimension. The participant's responses were similar across the eight regions. Where differences existed, they were related to the sensing/intuitive and sequential/global learning preferences dimensions. Region 8 Alaska appeared to have stronger sensing and sequential learning preferences than the other regions.
Age did not appear to influence the learning preferences of the fishermen. The majority of the respondents indicated they were high school graduates. However, education did not appear to affect the learning preferences of the fishermen. Captain's license status had no influence on the learning preferences of the commercial fishermen, since the majority of the respondents did not possess a captain's license.
Respondents indicated that the largest percentage of commercial fishing used net fishing methods as their primary means of fishing. For the majority of the commercial fishermen, method of fishing did not appear to influence the learning preferences of commercial fishermen. However, net and trap fishermen exhibited significant differences related to the sensing/intuitive and sequential/global learning preference dimensions and reported more preference for the sequential/global learning preference dimensions then fishermen using other methods of fishing. Implications and recommendations for further study are enumerated in the last chapter.

CoordenaÃÃo de AperfeÃoamento de Pessoal de NÃvel SuperiorThis study aims to make an approach on fisheries and poverty issues, which concepts have been used by several authors to present relations between these two issues. There are two contrasting interpretations in the literature on the relationship between fisheries and poverty. The first relates to the view that "they are fishermen, so they are poor". This is the perception of "endemic poverty" which is felt by the fishermen and that, regardless of what they try to do, remain poor. The second interpretation refers to the idea commonly transmitted in that the relationship between fisheries and poverty refers to the distributive role of fishing, or to the fact that fishing (because of its nature of open access) offers a poor livelihood by fishing activity. In other words this is the view that "they are poor, so the fishing is left to them". The socioeconomic profile of Brazilian fishermen for the year 2010, concludes that the Brazilian professional fishermen are mostly artisanal class, which represents 99.14% of the total 824,814 registered professionals. The average age was 39.21 years, with regional and gender differences. Unmarried predominates in the sector, with 49.92% of the total. Most fishermen have incomplete primary education (79.46%) or are either illiterate (6.53%). Informality prevails in the fishing industry with the activity as an individual work or as household economy. This fact is directly related to the character of the artisanal fisheries in Brazil. Furthermore, Brazilian fishermen have been reduced the amount of goods purchased over time, which may be indicative of a deterioration in activity. Regional differences are observed in almost all variables studied RGP. When faced socioeconomic indicators of the Brazilian population, the country may be divided into two groups, the first formed by the North, Northeast and Midwest regions, less developed than the Southeast and South regions. The distribution and concentration of Brazilian fishermen follows this characteristic of the indicators of population while maintaining strong relationship with poverty vulnerability (as more fishermen, more vulnerable) and the IDHM, especially regarding its education component.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis examines the dynamic decision making behavior of fishermen. Two models are developed: (l) an intraseasonal model of vessel movement on the fishing ground during each season; and (2) an interseasonal model for investment decision making from year to year. Both decision models are driven by single economic objectives and the fisherman-decision maker is assumed to make rational choices to optimize the stated objective.
In this competitive market intraseasonal decisions are assumed to be made in the short-run to maximize the net operating income of each fishing enterprise. These decisions about where to fish to obtain the maximum return to fishing effort over the course of the season are modelled by a partially observable Markov decision process which incorporates the key elements of the problem facing each fisherman. The state space for this process is derived from total seasonal biomass. This aggregate description of the state space renders the problem practicable and solvable. The normative model is developed formally and applied to freezer trollers of the British Columbia commercial fishing fleet. Model results for average income and catch per troller, and seasonal fishing distribution over the fishing grounds reflect major tendencies in statistics arising from actual intraseasonal decisions made by this group of fishermen.
Interseasonal decisions concerning longer-term investment strategies are made in an environment which is highly variable from season-to-season. Extensive variability implies that economic survival is a primary consideration in the investment decision process. The investment decision making process is modelled as a probabilistic dynamic programming problem in discrete time. Investors are assumed to make rational decisions based on income expectations and subject to survivability conditions to maximize the net worth of the fishing enterprise at the end of a finite planning horizon. The formal analysis of the investment model is presented. The model is applied to all trollers of the British Columbia commercial fishing fleet. The pattern of actual investment by troller is simulated by tuning behavioral components of the investment model. These results provide insight into the behavioral basis of investment decision making by this group of fishermen.
This modelling framework has implications for planning and regulation in fisheries. Insight gained into the key factors behind fishermen's decisions can provide a basis for the development of strategic policies which anticipate fishermen's behavior and are aimed at stabilizing the economic viability of the fishing sector. The approach represents a movement away from reactive, short-term policies which have characterized fisheries regulation to date.Business, Sauder School of

Os estuários são áreas de alta produtividade biológica. O estuário da Lagoa dos Patos constitui a área de criação, reprodução e alimentação de grande parte dos peixes que ocorrem no litoral sul do Brasil. A maior enseada rasa da zona estuarina é o Saco do Arraial, com hidrodinâmica singular, e palco de atuação pré-histórica de populações tradicionais na pesca. Atualmente, diversas comunidades de pesca atuam nesta enseada com explotação de peixe-rei (Odontesthes argentinensis), de siri (Callinectes sapidus), de tainha (Mugil sp) e, sobretudo, de camarão (Farfantepenaeus paulensis). Entre estas comunidades está a Coréia, situada na Ilha dos Marinheiros, segundo Distrito da cidade de Rio Grande. O presente trabalho tem como objetivo descrever o território de uma comunidade de pesca, a Coréia (Ilha dos Marinheiros RS), através de uma perspectiva etnooceanográfica. A perspectiva do território como conhecimento, não apenas o espaço, mas também o tempo é passível de ser apropriado constituindo os sinais de memória. Para atingir tais objetivos, um aparato metodológico, advindo das etnociências, foi utilizado: mapas cognitivo e vernacular, entrevistas abertas e semi-estruturadas, a técnica da turnê e a observação participante. As técnicas de coletas de dados foram utilizadas de forma a descrever o conhecimento das principais forçantes ambientais que conduzem a apropriação territorial em duas escalas: o território grupal e os pesqueiros. Os dados obtidos evidenciaram que as fronteiras territoriais são também limites do conhecimento ecológico tradicional e que três cenários ecológicos interanuais de tomadas de decisão, mediadas pelas técnicas de pesca, são construídos com base na interface de três principais forçantes ambientais percebidas: as chuvas, os ventos e o ciclo migratório das espécies. A partir da dinâmica estuarino-biológica construída (cenários), funda-se ou abole-se pesqueiros, bem como as relações sociais que deles emergem, o que confere flexibilidade às fronteiras do território grupal.Estuaries are high biological productivity areas. The Patos Lagoon Estuary is the growth, reproduction and feeding area of the most of fish in southern coastline of Brazil. The biggest shallow cove in the estuary zone is Saco do Arraial, it has a particular hydrodynamic, besides, it has been a pre-historical setting of traditional fishing population. Nowadays, various fishing communities work in this cove exploting fishes (Odontesthes argentinensis and Mugil sp), the blue-crab (Callinectes sapidus) mainly the pink-shrimp (Farfantepenaeus paulensis). Among these communities is the Coréia, in Sailors Island, the second district of Rio Grande City. This paper aims to describe a fishing territory, the Coréia, from an ethnooceanographyc perspective. From the perspective of the territory as knowledge, not only space, but also time is apropriated; the later constituting memory signs. For these aims mental maps, open-ended and in-depth semi-structured interviewing, tour technique and participative research have been used. The data collection techniques were used in order to describe the knowledge from environmental forcings that defines territorial appropriation in two levels: communitarian and pesqueiros. The data showed that territorial lines are the limits of traditional ecological knowledge. Besides this, three inter annual ecological decision-making settings (decisions concerning fishing technique management) are built according to three environmental forcings (rains, winds and migratory cycle of fish) in relation to fishing technique management. From estuary-biological dynamic built (settings), reconstruct fishing places (pesqueiros) are established ou dismantled, as well as the social relations which arise from them. As a result, the borders of the group territory become flexible.

Full textAbstract:
Senegalese fishermen have significantly expanded their mobility into the eastern Atlantic Ocean since the early 1980s. Fishermen have been crossing international maritime borders and organising long sea journeys, in part as a response to the decrease in fishing resources in Senegalese waters. From the early 2000s, they began carrying West African migrants on the maritime routes from Senegal to Spain, diversifying into irregular maritime migration or ‘people smuggling’. Fishermen’s fishing techniques and the migration flows they have facilitated are well documented. We have a good understanding, too, of the push-and-pull factors shaping these maritime migration patterns. Thus far, the social and political meanings of fishermen’s maritime mobility and cross-border movements have been comparatively neglected. This thesis argues that these mobility patterns are connected, revealing links between regional fisheries and mobilities and international migration flows that create distinctive maritime geographies. Drawing on participant observations and narratives collected in 69 in-depth interviews, my analysis explores the ways in which power and knowledge shape the at-sea experiences of Senegalese fishermen. For them, mobility is more than a response to the decrease in fish resources. By deploying their mobility, fishermen seek to recover control over their maritime and social environments. To map the maritime geographies this mobility co-creates, I examine three spaces. First, I chart the social and political mechanisms of fishermen’s mobility in Senegal, examining the gendered and local meanings of their movements. Second, I examine these mechanisms at the regional level – at the Senegal–Mauritania border and in the waters off Guinea and Guinea-Bissau. Finally, I track fishermen’s routes to the Canary Islands. By attending to fishermen’s accounts, I demonstrate the many ways in which they appropriate the ocean space, shape the geographies of maritime borderlands and rationalise their navigation. I reveal how their maritime mobility opens up multiple opportunities for fishermen to negotiate with – and reshape – the power relations that structure their social, political and natural environments.

Full textAbstract:
De nombreux prédateurs marins se nourrissent directement des prises des pêcheurs. Ces interactions, définies comme de la déprédation, engendrent des conséquences socio-économiques considérables pour les pêcheurs ainsi que des implications de conservation pour la faune sauvage. D’un côté, la déprédation endommage le matériel et augmente l’effort de pêche pour atteindre les quotas. D’un autre côté, la déprédation augmente le risque de mortalité des prédateurs marins (prise accidentelle ou rétorsion létale par les pécheurs). La pêcherie à la palangre est la plus impactée par la déprédation, principalement par les odontocètes, ce qui incite à trouver des solutions. La majorité des études se concentrant sur la déprédation s’est principalement basée sur des observations en surface, de ce fait la manière dont les prédateurs retirent les poissons sur les lignes reste confuse. Par ailleurs, l’impact de la déprédation sur le comportement des pêcheurs ainsi que les facteurs expliquant leur détectabilité n’ont reçu que peu d’intérêt. L’objectif de cette thèse est donc d’étudier ces problématiques par un suivi acoustique, une utilisation de balises et une approche en écologie comportementale humaine, en se concentrant sur la pêcherie palangrière française ciblant la légine australe (Dissostichus eleginoides) impactée par la déprédation des orques (Orcinus orca) et des cachalots (Physeter macrocephalus). Les capitaines ont été décrits comme recherchant leur ressource selon la théorie de « l’optimal foraging », mais avec des perceptions de la compétition et du succès de pêche qui divergent. Certains capitaines seraient ainsi plus enclins à remonter les palangres au plus proche et à rester sur une zone, même en présence de compétition, augmentant alors le risque d’interaction. L’acoustique des navires a révélé que certaines manoeuvres (marche arrière par exemple) propagent différemment sous l’eau. La manière dont les capitaines manoeuvrent leur palangrier influencerait ainsi leur détectabilité et donc leur risque d’interaction avec les prédateurs. D’autre part, l’utilisation de capteurs sur les palangres et les animaux a révélé que les orques et les cachalots sont capables de déprédater sur les palangres posées sur le fond marin. Ces observations laissent à penser que les odontocètes sont en mesure de localiser l’activité de pêche bien avant la remontée de la ligne, ce qui pourrait être expliqué par une signature acoustique spécifique du déploiement de la ligne. L’ensemble des résultats de cette thèse suggère que la déprédation sur les palangres démersales est très probablement sous-estimée. Cette thèse apporte également des éléments importants pour la lutte contre la déprédation, en montrant la nécessité de protéger les palangres dans l’intégralité du processus de pêcheMany marine predator species feed on fish caught by fishers directly from the fishing gear. Known as depredation this interaction issue has substantial socio-economic consequences for fishermen and conservation implications for the wildlife. Costs for fishers include damages to the fishing gear and increased fishing effort to complete quotas. For marine predators, depredation increases risks of mortality (lethal retaliation from fishers or bycatch on the gear). Longline fisheries are the most impacted worldwide, primarily by odontocetes (toothed whales) depredation, urging the need for mitigation solutions to be developed. Most of studies assessing depredation have primarily relied on surface observation data, thus the way odontocetes interact with longlines underwater remains unclear. Besides, the way fishermen respond to depredation during fishing operations, or can influence their detectability to odontocetes, have been poorly investigated. This thesis therefore aimed at investigating these aspects through a passive acoustic monitoring, bio-logging and human ecology approaches, focusing on the French Patagonian toothfish (Dissostichus eleginoides) longline fisheries impacted by killer whales (Orcinus orca) and sperm whales (Physeter macrocephalus). Firstly, this thesis reveals that captains behave as optimal foragers but with different personal perception of competition and fishing fulfilment. Some captains would thus be more likely to stay within a patch or to haul closest longline even in presence of competition, suggesting these captains would show higher interaction rates. Additionally, the propagation of vessels’ acoustics varied depending on the type of manoeuvre (e.g. going backward vs. forward). The way captains use their vessels to navigate may therefore influence their detectability and so their depredation level. Secondly, loggers deployed on both the longlines (accelerometers) and odontocetes (GPS-TDR) revealed that killer whales and sperm whales are able to depredate on longlines while soaking on the seafloor. These observations suggest, therefore, that odontocetes can localise fishing activity before the hauling, which could be partially explained by specific acoustic signatures recorded during the setting process. Altogether, the results of the thesis suggest that depredation rates on demersal longlines are most likely underestimated. The thesis also brings some important insights for mitigation measures, suggesting that countermeasures should start from setting to hauling

Full textAbstract:
Mobile phones have had a tremendous diffusion rate in Africa in recent years. This has brought access to telecommunication to new user groups, among them Tanzanian fishermen. But how does mobile phone use affect the way fishermen live their lives, how they pursue economic activities and how they protect themselves from vulnerability to risk?
During a field study in Tanzania, interviews with fish boat captains were conducted in order to investigate what impact mobile phone use has on the livelihood indicators empowerment, opportunity and vulnerability to risk. Our research shows that increased access to information, enabled by mobile phones brings positive effects to all indicators. Mobile phone use empowers, both through increased bargaining power and increased control over external events. Mobile phones give increased knowledge about market opportunities and a possibility to work more efficiently. Furthermore, mobile phones give fishermen a possibility to take measures to decrease the risks they are exposed to, such as emergencies out at sea. The negative effects are found negligible. These effects are most likely not isolated to Tanzanian fishermen. Communication through mobile phones can bring similar advantages to other groups that have earlier been excluded from the communication system.

Approved for public release; distribution is unlimitedDespite a strong naval presence, piracy off the Horn of Africa (HOA) has been rising at the impressive annual rate of about 100 percent since 2006. Repression at sea does not seem to be working, and it is critical to identify the root cause(s) of piracy before additional counter-measures can be applied with any measurable success. The rise in piracy off the HOA is blamed by some on the disenfranchisement of Somali fishermen. This paper investigates trends in Somalia's artisanal fisheries over five decades, and finds that the rise in piracy off the HOA is not a direct consequence of a decline in Somali fisheries. Somalia is unique in many ways, and a number of factors there combine to enable piracy to rise in ways unparalleled anywhere else in the world, or at any other time in history. Some alternative counter-piracy options can be explored, even in the continued absence of a strong central Somali government.

Neste trabalho, foi analisada a influência do conhecimento tradicional da pesca na formulação de políticas públicas do setor no Brasil partindo-se do caso da pesca artesanal no trecho mineiro do rio São Francisco. Para tanto, fez-se uma análise sociológica da organização social da pesca por meio de seus processos, suas formas de interações e suas sínteses, em uma perspectiva micro e macrossociológica, visando identificar como o processo de institucionalização da pesca considera o fazer artesanal - cultura, técnicas e práticas sociais - no escopo das políticas formuladas pelo setor. Em termos institucionais foram discriminados os conflitos e incongruências do projeto de modernização da pesca oriundos do Plano Nacional de Desenvolvimento de Sustentação da Aqüicultura e Pesca da SEAP/PR. Em termos sociais, no que concerne ao modo de vida da pesca artesanal, foram discriminadas as principais características sócio-ambientais que circundam e interagem com o pescador, observando a relação entre a lógica de mercantilização recente do uso das águas doces no Brasil e a evolução das condições de vida e trabalho da categoria entre 1999 e 2004, apontando para uma provável extinção da mesma. O estudo conclui a existência de grande distância entre o discurso e a prática das políticas anunciadas pela SEAP/PR em 2003 e como o projeto de modernização citado reverbera no modo de vida da pesca artesanal do alto-médio São Francisco.In this work, the influence of the traditional knowledge of fishing on the formulation of public policies on this section in Brazil was analyzed by proceeding with the case of handmade fishing at the section of Minas Gerais of São Francisco river. For that, a sociological analysis of the social organization of the fishing was made by its processes, its forms of interactions, and its syntheses in a micro and macro-sociological perspective, by seeking to identify how the process of institutionalization of the fishing considers the handmade performance - culture, techniques and social practices - in the purpose of the formulated policies on such section. On institutional terms, the conflicts and the incongruities of the project of modernization of fishing derived from the national plan of development of sustenance of the acquiculture and the fishing of the SEAP/PR were discriminated. On social terms, concerning the way of life of handmade fishing, the main socio-environmental characteristics that surround and interact with the fisherman were distinguished by observing the relationship between the logic of the recent mercantilization of the use of fresh water in Brazil and the evolution of the life and work conditions of such category between 1999 and 2004, that points to a probable extinction of it. The study concluded the existence of great distance between the speech and the practice of the announced policies by the SEAP/PR in 2003, and how the cited project of modernization reverberates through the way of life of fishing of high-medium São Francisco.

Full textAbstract:
Bering Sea pollock fishing is characterized by high levels of physical risk, uncertainties in wages and schedule, close and extensive interdependence on other workers, and long absences from home. This occupation leads to a way of life which is full of extremes and has unusually strong effects on the family. This study examines the effects of the occupation on the quality of family life and working life through a teamwork perspective. It is a study of the slow breakdown in cooperation among families and the enhancement of cooperation in the work setting. The breakdown in family cooperation reduces the family’s ability to respond to its members’ needs for love, inclusion, and intimacy, and has important consequences for the quality of family life. The enhancement of cooperation in the work setting contributes to the creation of important social benefits such as trust, agreement, and a sense of inclusion. These social outcomes, and improved task performance, positively influence the quality of working life. Major themes include anthropology at home and among peers, family adaptations to occupational influences, the role of story-telling in building cooperation and commitment in teams, generosity and relaxed social accounting strategies in adult socialization, and the importance of extremes in evaluating the quality of working life.

The study unveiled the following pattern around the mangrove: from being a source of livelihood and place for communal activities up until the 1970s, it became the locus of an environmental movement in the 80s and 90s after it was devastated by a big fire. The concrete outcome of the movement was the creation of the APARU, Area of Environmental Protection and Urban Regeneration, which meant that after more than seventy years under a system of tutelage by the Navy, the colony and the mangrove were subjected to an environmental form of governance administered by the City Council, and the mangrove went from being a taken-for-granted thing to an environmentally-oriented concept. It finally fell silent and isolated as it became increasingly polluted, even if ‘protected’ by a municipal decree. The main argument presented is that, as the mangrove passed from nature to environment, which implied a change in governance from the Navy to the Department of Environment, people found creative ways of holding on to its thingness, and to ethical values that at times conflict with the broader environmental assemblage. Those local ethics forge the links that sustain an ecological assemblage, and the ethics prescribed by the environmental governance currently in place can be undermined by more embedded values. That said, local knowledge and practices are environmentally informed, and different ways of being political emerge. This community was not only created literally on a mangrove, but it was also symbolically and politically reproduced through the mangrove, and even more so after it became a protected area. The dialectical outcomes of the relationships between human beings and the mangrove, and between human beings as they multiply, transform the landscape continuously, just as the mangrove in its perpetual unfolding impresses itself upon human matters and sustains the social ordering of things. As new elements are assembled around the mangrove, from discarded utensils to stories of environmental activism, the mangrove is enacted as heritage, as nature, as a biome, as culture, as pollution, as an institution, and as environment. This thesis hopes to contribute towards the broader body of literature on environmental anthropology, political ecology, and anthropology of moralities, by focusing on ‘human-disturbed environments’ (Tsing 2013) and bringing attention to the value of local perceptions in policy making.

Full textAbstract:
On January 1, 2007, the Ministry of Agriculture and Marine Resources in the Department of Marine Resources of the Bahamas promulgated significant revisions to their sports-fishing regulations. While the new laws were designed to benefit the Bahamian fisheries, they caused a vociferous uproar among non-resident anglers who frequent the islands of the Bahamas to sports-fish. Of particular concern are the new regulations that limit the maximum weight and number of fish which non-resident anglers may keep on their boat. My research examines the claims-making activities made by American anglers on four different sports-fishermen/cruising forums. The analysis focuses on the motifs, rhetorical idioms, counterrhetorical strategies, and styles among sports-fishermen who fish the Bahamas.M.A.

A sustentabilidade dos recursos naturais, inclusive pesqueiros, tem sido pauta de discussão há décadas. A sensação de infinito, que por vezes temos do mar, parece que se estende aos recursos ali encontrados. O saber científico e o saber popular convergem num só alerta: sem medidas urgentes e realmente eficazes, a lagosta pode se acabar como atividade econômica. O Ceará ainda é o principal estado da federação na exportação do crustáceo, mas o item, que por muito tempo esteve em primeiro lugar na pauta de exportações do Estado, hoje está na quarta colocação. Este estudo consiste em verificar junto aos pescadores artesanais da Praia das Frexeiras, BeberibeCe, a visão dos mesmos sobre a Sustentabilidade da pesca da Lagosta. Para alcançar esta finalidade, utilizou-se dados de origem primária, obtidos através de questionários envolvendo as questões referentes aos aspectos pessoais e sociais da família, profissionais, bens de produção, defeso da lagosta e segurodesemprego,contemplando a população de 33 pescadores, todos beneficiários do Programa de Seguro Desemprego ao Pescador Artesanal. Fez-se a gravação de entrevistas, que relatavam o pensamento deles sobre o assunto e utilizou-se também a observação científica. Conclui-se que os pescadores artesanais da Praia das Frexeiras em Beberibe-Ce, são possuidores de um senso crítico formador de opinião sobre a Sustentabilidade da pesca da Lagosta. Torna-se então necessário, que haja uma união de esforços para que num período de curto, médio e longo prazo sejam definidas ações de cunho prático, visando assim, a reestruturação do setor lagosteiro e por conseqüência, a sustentabilidade da atividade

Full textAbstract:
Sharks and manta rays are being heavily fished in Indonesia due to Asian demand for shark fins and manta gill rakers. The Indonesian government passed legislation in February 2014 to protect the two species of manta rays. A number of shark species have also been protected or banned from export. A major factor in this decision was the proven economic benefits from ecotourism compared to the economic benefits from the shark finning and manta gill industry.However, previous research on marine conservation underlines that there is a lack of social scientific studies on the socio-economic impacts that marine conservation have on stakeholder fishing communities. In an attempt to start filling this gap of knowledge, the purpose of this thesis was to investigate how the shark and manta ray conservation efforts affect the socio-economic situation of different stakeholder fishing communities in Indonesia. Fieldwork was done in fishing communities in the Komodo and Nusa Penida regions, together with the fishing village Tanjung Luar in Lombok, where people in fishing communities were interviewed about their livelihood situation. The study found that the impacts of marine conservation on the economic situation for stakeholder fishermen affects their attitude towards and compliance with marine conservation efforts. If no profitable economic alternatives are given to fishing, fishing communities have a lower degree of compliance with conservation efforts.
