Taiwan using RFID system to better understand fish products

The An Ping Live Fish Center in Tainan is applying technical platforms from the Institute for Information Industry and Microsoft in developing an RFID system that can be employed for live aquatic products. This revolutionary effort will let consumers review information about the fish they will soon be eating. A scanner will be required to scan the information on the aquatic products. Consumers will be able to see a full array of information on fisheries products, starting from fish fry until the fish have grown and are ready for the market. The data will also show delivery-related information.

River Damming Leads To Dramatic Decline In Native Fish Numbers

Damming of the Colorado River over the last century, alongside introduction of game fish species, has led to an extensive decline in numbers of native fish* whilst introduced species have flourished. Scientists have found that physical changes which occur to a river when it is dammed have had an adverse effect only on native fish, due to differences in their life histories.

An armored fish was about to become a mom some 380 million years ago. Though the primitive fish perished, its fossilized remains remarkably reveal an embryo and umbilical cord inside the soon-to-be mother's body.

Fish Getting Lost As Oceans Acidify

Dr Monica Gagliano of the Australian Institute of Marine Science (AIMS) was part of a team investigating damselfish otoliths. At hatching they found that 59% had asymmetrical otoliths.
