    Description: Recovery of overexploited marine populations has been slow, and most remain below target biomass levels. A key question is whether this is due to insufficient reductions in harvest rates or the erosion of population resilience. Using a global meta-analysis of overfished stocks, we find that resilience of those stocks subjected to moderate levels of overfishing is enhanced, not compromised, offering the possibility of swift recovery. However, prolonged intense overexploitation, especially for collapsed stocks, not only delays rebuilding but also substantially increases the uncertainty in recovery times, despite predictable influences of fishing and life history. Timely and decisive reductions in harvest rates could mitigate this uncertainty. Instead, current harvest and low biomass levels render recovery improbable for the majority of the world's depleted stocks.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Neubauer, Philipp -- Jensen, Olaf P -- Hutchings, Jeffrey A -- Baum, Julia K -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2013 Apr 19;340(6130):347-9. doi: 10.1126/science.1230441.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute of Marine and Coastal Sciences, Rutgers University, New Brunswick, NJ 08901, USA. neubauer.phil@gmail.com〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23599493" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Notes: A Large bioreactor is an inhomogenous system with concentration gradients which depend on the fluid dynamics and the mass transfer of the reactor, the feeding strategy, the saturation constant, and the cell density. The responses of Escherichia coli cells to short-term oscillations of the carbon/energy substrate in glucose limited fed-batch cultivations were studied in a two-compartment reactor system consisting of a stirred tank reactor (STR) and an aerated plug flow reactor (PFR) as a recycle loop. Short-term glucose excess or starvation in the PFR was simulated by feeding of glucose to the PFR or to the STR alternatively. The cellular response to repeated short-term glucose excess was a transient increase of glucose consumption and acetate formation. But, there was no accumulation of acetate in the culture, because it was consumed in the STR part where the glucose concentration was growth limiting. However, acetate accumulated during the cultivation if the oxygen supply in the PFR was insufficient, causing higher acetate formation. The biomass yield was then negatively influenced, which was also the case if the PFR was used to simulate a glucose starvation zone. The results suggest that short-term heterogeneities influence the cellular physiology and growth, and can be of major importance for the process performance. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
