They provided risk projections for managers to choose, the chosen 20% TAC reduction yields 0% probability of overfishingUnder the 2020 ERP definitions, Atlantic menhaden are not overfished and overfishing is not occurring. For 2023, fecundity is on the order of 1.2 quadrillion eggs (above the ERP fecundity threshold but below the target) and fishing mortality is about 0.26 (above the ERP F-target but still below the ERP F-threshold). The overview also makes clear there is no single "right" ERP; selecting ERP targets and thresholds is a management choice that balances objectives for menhaden and their predators.The 2025 single-species update applied a lower estimate of natural mortality (M). That change lowers the back-calculated biomass, fecundity, and recruitment across the time series and raises the corresponding fishing mortality (F) estimates, even though the underlying population did not suddenly decline. Because of the revised M, the 2025 assessment's long-term average biomass is about a third lower than the 2022 update's average; this reflects an improved understanding of the stock rather than a real-time drop in the stock itself.The 2025 update shows that the biomass of age-1+ menhaden is just below its 20-year average but has been trending up since 2021.Adult abundance in 2023 was 14.8 billion age-1+ fish, above the average of the past 20 years.Recruitment in 2023 was 44.5 billion age-0 fish, above the average of the past 20 years.

NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK / ACCESS Newswire / December 2, 2025 / The world doesn't have a waste problem because it creates too much waste. It has a waste problem because it can't see what it creates. Every year, trillions of dollars in usable materials move through global waste streams without proper identification, tracking, or valuation. Plastics with high recovery value get mixed with low-value fragments. Metals that should be recirculated end up buried. Reusable industrial materials get misclassified because the system relies on guesswork instead of evidence.

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / December 2, 2025 / Gold markets rarely shift with headlines. They shift when a region builds a system so strong, so consistent, and so advanced that the rest of the world has no choice but to follow it. Dubai has reached that point. The DMCC spent more than two decades building its infrastructure, but the global pivot didn't happen until it demonstrated something new. It showed the world what gold looks like when material truth becomes part of the metal itself. SMX (NASDAQ:SMX) helped make that possible by introducing molecular-level verification that gives gold a permanent identity from the moment it's sourced to the moment it enters a vault. That combination is reshaping how global traders define trust.

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / December 2, 2025 / Everyone has an opinion on artificial intelligence, but the conversation usually orbits around consumer apps, language models, and chat interfaces. The real transformation is happening far from the spotlight, inside factories, smelters, recycling plants, and industrial facilities that run machinery powerful enough to build nations. Industrial AI lives in a world where inputs can't be guessed. They have to be right. A machine can't optimize a process if it doesn't understand what it's touching. SMX (NASDAQ:SMX) is giving industrial AI the thing it's been missing for years. It's giving materials their own identity, so AI systems can operate with truth instead of assumptions.

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / December 2, 2025 / Dubai didn't just strengthen its gold market. It changed the competitive landscape for every major trading hub on the planet.

Traders now see what it looks like when a commodity carries its own identity. They see faster clearances, cleaner pricing, tighter compliance, and fewer disputes. And they see something else.
