“…According to Fredston et al (2023) [8], for example, SST is a critical oceanographic component that controls an organism's thermoregulation, which in turn affects its distribution, ecology, behavior, and interactions with other creatures. According to Miah et al (2023) [9], SSS is an additional important oceanographic component that has a major impact on fish physiology, spawning, reproduction, and distribution. Plankton abundance and fish species that depend on these resources are impacted by MLD's effects on water column temperature and nutrient distribution [10].…”

The depletion of the grey mullet population in the Taiwan Strait has generated interest in conservation initiatives and to enhance the effectiveness of restoration initiatives, it is essential to comprehend the specific habitat preferences of the species in question, particularly in relation to environmental changes. In this study, habitat suitability modelling was used to investigate the distribution patterns of grey mullet. Sea surface height (SSH) was the most significant predictor of the grey mullet standardized catch per unit effort (S.CPUE). Furthermore, sea surface temperature (SST) was the second most important oceanographic parameter, followed by mixed-layer depth (MLD). The grey mullet S.CPUE peaked in regions with the summed SST, Chla, salinity, SSH, MLD and current values being 20 °C, 0.9 mg/m3, 34.5 psu, 0.45 m, 18–38 m, and 0.25 m2/s2, respectively. From late October, HSI levels in the northern Taiwan ocean increased, with a consistent upward trend. The distribution expanded in November and December, focusing on the northern and mid-ocean regions west of Taiwan. HSI levels peak in January and February, especially in Taiwan’s coastal region. High HSI distribution shifts away from coastlines and diminishes in April. The findings of this study will contribute to the understanding of this specific species and the approach used in this study may be applicable to other fisheries stocks also.

“…The livelihood of the coastal inhabitants in Cox's Bazar combines aquaculture, fish and dried fish, agriculture, salt production, local tourism, trading, and handicrafts (Hena et al, 2005). The Bangladesh Fisheries Development Corporation (BFDC) Fish Landing Centre, a well‐known marine fish landing station, is located here, as anchors of various fishing trawlers and most of the marine catches land here and serve as distribution centers (Miah et al, 2022). The captured fish are transported via various distribution channels from the landing centers to buyer marketplaces before being distributed throughout the country (Rahman et al, 2013).…”

This study aimed to provide the very first description of the current scenario of knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) concerning the food safety and hygiene subjects among wet fish handlers (WFHs) and dry fish handlers (DFHs) in Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh. Data collection was performed through the application of face‐to‐face interviews with 234 WFHs and 258 DFHs. The overall score of the correct answer assessed components was 55.95% and 57.05% in WFHs and DFHs, respectively. Among the different knowledge categories, both the respondents showed the highest positive response in the time, temperature, and quality control category and the lowest positive responses noted in the foodborne disease occurrence category. For attitudes, obtained results showed positive attitude with a mean score of 37.82 ± 4.28 and 35.58 ± 5.48 for WFHs and DFHs, respectively. The WFHs gained a mean score of 23.08 ± 4.24 for practices, and the score was 22.78 ± 4.47 in the case of DFHs. A positively significant correlation coefficient (rs) was observed among fish handlers' KAP of 0.326–0.584. Although the association between the three levels was acceptable, several food safety principles and hygiene practices remained unsatisfactory. These findings highlighted the need for rapid action to enhance food safety and hygiene KAP through an intensive training program to assure the production of safe fisheries products for human consumption.
