To overcome these drawbacks they proposed a stratified point sampling strategy ensuring an even distribution of the sample points on all surface, which implies a higher probability to catch important surface regions.
These petrels mostly feed on squid and fish, which they catch by surface seizing and pursuit-plunging.
You have to move around, adjust your position, bend down and look up, catch the surface in different angles of light.
The idea came to him one day when he was looking through a book of El Greco paintings and saw the light catch the surface of a page at an odd angle, "changing a reproduction of a painting into a shimmering distortion...
Moreover, because catches are brought back to the boat in minutes, discarded fish stand a much greater chance of survival compared with those caught on surface longlines.
The diet of the Fairy Prion includes a variety of crustaceans, copepods and amphipods which it catches by surface-seizing and dipping, and occasionally surface-plunging and pattering.
When he free-dives for the spider crab he reaches "two and a half fathoms down" with no flippers, and wrestles his "monstrous" catch to the surface; he swims towards the horizon (no, he is not swimming, but "porpoising through the water"), he spots another crab, hangs above it, "feeling like a hawk about to swoop on its prey".
You claw your way to the surface, catch your breath as fresh air invades your nearly collapsed lungs.
restuans, which primarily breed in a small subset of habitats (tires, gutters, catch basins, polluted surface pools) that are different from those of many other vectors (20 ).
Both species have similar feeding behavior (15%22%% of blood meals come from mammalian hosts, averaging the data weighted by sample size from [ 9, 10] and L. Kramer et al., unpub. data) and breed in similar habitats (containers such as tires, gutters, catch basins, polluted surface pools).
