  Juniper Publishers -  Journal of Oceanography Abstract The primary purpose of this article is to supply definitive statements regarding current skills in seasonal prediction with emphasis on marine ecosystem indicators and how forecasts could be possibly used for societal benefit. To enhance skills and setting priorities toward the further development and application of the existing dynamical models for seasonal prediction one has to recognize that this kind of process necessarily requires robust interactions amongst the biophysical science and applications communities and a delicate balance between scientific feasibility and application requirements. Also, recommendations for improving seasonal prediction skills and enhancing the use of seasonal prediction information for applications are outlined. Go to Introduction A marine ecosystem is a complex nonlinear dynamical system, with significant spatial variability, strongly linked to the circulation of the atmosphere and ocea...

  Juniper Publishers -  Journal of Oceanography Abstract In recent times, the deteriorating state of the rivers have begin to gain prominence, this is because there have being a reduction in fish catch and the economy of the fishermen and women who depends on this as their source of livelihood. Due to the fragile nature of the Niger Delta and the turn out of climate change which has lead to excessive rainfall and intense heat, the area has been in so much pains as their only source lo livelihood is been affected. In this study two fishing ports were used and from a water sample analysis it showed that although flooding in the area to an extent affects the quality of water as well as the state of fishes, but the most is the activities of man arising from the use of water bodies as dumpsites for refuse and toilets and oil spills from industrial activities of multinational companies and sand dredging. Therefore the study recommends that government and the private sector should se...

Index Copernicus : All journals may be registered in the ICI World of Journals database. The database gathers information on international scientific journals which is divided into sections: general information, contents of individual issues, detailed bibliography (references) for every publication, as well as full texts of publications in the form of attached files (optional). Within the ICI World of Journals database, each editorial office may access, free of charge, the IT system which allows you to manage your journal's passport: updating journal’s information, presenting main fields of activity and sharing the publications with almost 200 thousand users from all over the world. The idea behind the ICI World of Journals database is to create a place where scientific journals from all over the world would undergo verification for ‘predatory journals’ practices by scientific community. The ICI World of Journals database allows journals which care about completeness an...
