but the production process is more or less the same. Braid is completely different. It’s made by weaving together several strands of polyethylenes like Dacron, Spectra, and Dyneema. This produces a super-thin line that could stop aSwordfishin its tracks. ...
Three hook types and two bait types were tested on two surface longline vessels targeting swordfish (Xiphias gladius) for 240 days at sea in areas of the SE Pacific Ocean. The use of circle hooks instead of conventional ones led to losses in swordfish catch rates of -23.1%, while moderate...
Moreover, skin-friction drag reduction is sometimes accomplished by surface and body-geometry modifications, as observed in the cases of swordfish and sharks.6,7,9,10 Thus, a comprehensive level of knowledge has already been acquired about the drag-reduction technique of aquatic animals (Re≫1...

Thus, such fishes can live either exclusively in freshwater (e.g., goldfish, guppies, and channel catfish), or in marine environments (e.g., pufferfish, tuna, swordfish) [2]. However, there are also a minority of fish species (2–3%) that are euryhaline (eurys: broad; halinos: ...
