Xxxxxxxxxx et al. (2012a) outlined three main types of restocking practices: (i) release of adults after the hunting season to increase the subsequent breeding population, (ii) release of juveniles before the hunting season, to be harvested during the subsequent hunting season, and (iii) release of individuals during the hunting season. In most countries where restocking takes place, regulations or guidance that define best practice are limited or non-existent. Furthermore, current practices differ considerably from one country to another. In France, Mallards mostly come from a handful of breeding facilities that sell day-old ducklings. Such birds are then hand-reared in aviaries in the region of release, which generally occurs at the age of 6–9 weeks, about two months before the start of the hunting season. In order to keep hand-reared Mallard on the hunting estate, the provision of corn, wheat or rice is common practice. Hand-reared Mallard are thus likely to be highly faithful to the place where they were released, at least until the hunting season commences (Xxxxxxxxxx et al. 2009). Swedish game managers have long used Mallard eggs, ducklings, and adults imported from Denmark, which in turn also imports large quantities from abroad, e.g. France (Xxxxxxxxxx et al. 2013). In the Krasnodar and Rostov regions of southern Russia (Azov/Black Sea region) more than 100,000 ducks (thought to be Mallard) have been released annually in recent years by the local hunter associations and these birds are believed to mostly be derived from China where they were harvested as eggs from wild populations (MaMing et al. 2012) and transported to Russia for rearing 15 Act No. 114/1992 Coll. on Nature and Landscape Protection, Act No. 449/2001 Coll. On Xxxx- ing, and the International Agreement on the Conservation of African–Eurasian Migratory Water- birds and release; this practice is feasible due to favourable costs of egg harvesting and transport (Xxxxxxxxx 2013).

Xxxxxxxxxx et al. (2011) noted that the response of chlorophyl-a to changing nitrogen conditions differs between individual coastal areas. The authors suggest several ecosystem features that could potentially account for this, e.g. differences in tidal ranges, secchi-depth, mixing and the fraction of refractory TN. This suggests that ecosystem characteristics can play an important role in the outcome of restoration projects. The same authors also suggested that shifting baseline (as a result of global change), may explain the reported failure to revert eutrophied coastal ecosystems to their previous state following reduction of nutrient inputs. Several major reasons return in many publications on recovery failure or delay:  Spatial scale must be large enough (catchment).  Temporal scale: there is time needed for recovery.  Multistressors present: mostly only one or a few stressor were tackled, others forgotten.  Confounding abiotic processes affect recovery, such as upstream ‘hidden’ stressors, internal P loading, and biological interactions, like the early arrival of non-native species, but also climate change effects, effects of management and maintenance.  Distance from source populations and lack of connectivity results in dispersal limitations and colonisation barriers.  There is no guiding monitoring that makes evaluation along the development and redirection of measures possible.

Xxxxxxxxxx et al. (2012) advanced research findings that suggest that areas that have more green space have a slightly lower mortality rate (stronger association for respiratory disease mortality), yet authors emphasize the need for more research aimed at identifying whether there is a selection bias related to people who have been exercising in their youth move to areas with green space as well as the specific characteristics of green space that have the strongest influence on mortality, and at evaluating the potential confounding role of other lifestyle-related mortality risk factors.
Xxxxxxxxxx et al. 1991; West et al. 1991), while crowding has proven a risk factor in some cases (Assaad et al. 1968; Xxxxxxxxxxx 1975) but not a factor in others (Xxxxxx et al. 1989). In Guinea, trachoma is particularly problematic in the upper and middle regions of the north and east, which border the sahelian regions of Senegal, Mali, and Côte d’Ivoire and are somewhat drier in comparison to the coastal and forest regions of the country. Surveys conducted from 2011 to 2013 revealed a baseline prevalence of trachomatous inflammation among 1-9 year- olds of over 30% in 5 health districts and between 5% and 10% in 4 health districts of the 18 health districts in the upper and middle regions of the country (unpublished data, Ministry of Health of Guinea). During years 2012 and 2013 of these prevalence surveys, an additional household survey was conducted concurrently to assess the access to water and sanitation facilities in 11 health districts of the upper, middle and forest regions. The goal of this study was to assess the effect of latrine use and cleanliness on the prevalence of active trachoma, and to evaluate the degree of clustering of the disease at the household, community, and district levels. Using data collected during trachoma prevalence mapping in 2012 and 2013, we assessed the effect of (a) household latrine use, and (b) household latrine cleanliness on TF/TI in 1-9 year-olds and on community TF/TI prevalence. We also evaluated the degree of clustering of active trachoma within households, communities, and districts while adjusting for these and other relevant factors. The purpose of this research was to quantify the role of latrine use and cleanliness, and local clustering of disease on the prevalence of trachoma.
Xxxxxxxxxx et al. 1998; 1999). The first model was the isolated rodent heart model (using Langendorff device) and the other one was the in vitro coagulation model, which was thereafter completely automated. The two biological models and the results that were obtained have been described in details elsewhere (Beauvais, 2007). The methods for “imprinting” information in water were also “improved” during this period and Benveniste’s team built up different electronic devices that allowed “transferring molecular information” from one vial containing target molecule to another vial containing “uninformed” water. The “imprinted” water sample was tested on a biological system. For the first attempts, the electronic transfer was performed using two electric coils (one for input and the other for output) wired at a low-frequency electronic amplifier (Aïssa et al., 1993; Xxxxxxxxxx et al., 1994; Xxxxx et al., 1995). Then Xxxxxxxxxx’x team showed that the “information” captured by the electric coil at input could be recorded on the hard disk of a computed via its sound card and then “replayed” to water samples placed in the electric coil at output (Xxxxxxxxxx et al., 1996; Xxxxxxxxxx et al., 1997; Xxxxxxxxxx et al., 1998). The term “digital biology” was coined by Xxxxxxxxxx to describe these new experiments. As previously described, very impressive and clear-cut experiments were obtained (Beauvais, 2007). However, if these experiments were so spectacular, why Xxxxxxxxxx did not convince other scientists of the reality of these phenomena? The simplest answer to the question raised in the last paragraph is that an unexpected and puzzling phenomenon poisoned the experiments, more particularly some blind experiments performed with the participation of other scientists (Beauvais, 2008). We have described in details these experiments and a comprehensive analysis of one of them has been recently published (Beauvais, 2013c).
