October 23, 2013 Pacific, Uncategorized

IT’S the mystery hum that is making life a misery for people living on both sides of Southampton Water. Noise experts are still trying to solve the puzzle surrounding the origin of the low frequency drone, which has sparked dozens of complaints from families suffering sleepless nights. Some observers say the sound is similar to the so-called West Seattle Hum, which plagued parts of the US city this time last year. Play the clip (starts about 20 seconds in) [email protected] 10:30

The New England groundfish debacle (Part III): who or what is at fault? Nils E. Stolpe/FishNet

It took me a while to decide how to most accurately describe the situation that has been visited upon the New England fishing communities that are and since colonial times have been dependent on the groundfish fisheries.

NILS STOLPE: The New England groundfish debacle (Part IV): Is cutting back harvest really the answer?

While it’s a fact that’s hardly ever acknowledged, the assumption in fisheries management is that if the population of a stock of fish isn’t at some arbitrary level, it’s because of too much fishing.
