This is the modern-day story of a native peoples remarkable victory over Western Colonial power. A Pacific island rose up in arms against giant mining corporation Rio Tinto Zinc (RTZ) – and won despite a military occupation and blockade. When RTZ decided to step up production at the Panguna Mine on the island of Bougainville, they got more than they bargained for.
The Achotines Laboratory was established as part of the IATTC’s Tuna-Billfish Program. It is one of the few research facilities in the world designed specifically for studies of the early life history of tropical tunas. As tunas are pelagic (open-ocean) fish they are difficult to study in their natural habitat. Little is known from studies of live tunas of their reproductive activities or early life history (egg, larval, and early-juvenile stages), and for that reason the IATTC established a research laboratory to focus on these aspects of tuna biology.
High Flow Aquatech Trays High Flow Aquatech Oyster Trays are made from high quality UV stabilized molded polyethylene. One tray can produce 120 3" to 4 1/2" oysters from 3/4" seed per growout cycle after nursery stage. Trays are loaded by chute and open at the top of each level, allowing for pre-assembly of trays before deployment. Base of tray has smaller mesh size to hold seed. Upper sides have larger mesh for better water flow.
