Ecological variations and El Niño effects off the southern coast of the Korean Peninsula during the last three decades

To explore ecosystem response to environmental changes, we investigated interannual and decadal changes in the marine ecosystem using data collected from the southern coast of the Korean Peninsula during the 1960s–1990s. Water properties such as sea surface temperature (SST) and salinity in April did not show large variation during the 1970s, but a relatively cool water mass appeared from the early to mid 1980s and a warm water mass replaced it after 1989. Chl a concentration in April, which was converted from Secchi disc information, was low (mean=1.18 mg m⁻³) during the period 1968–1980 excluding 1974, but there was a period of greater biomass for 7 years from 1981 (mean=2.78 mg m⁻³). A negative correlation ( r =−0.387, P  < 0.05) between SST and chl a in April matched high chl a during the low-SST period in the early and mid 1980s. Annual zooplankton biomass ranged from 37 to 132 mg m⁻³, but abundance was frequently high after 1984 and low during 1972–1982. The most representative pelagic fishes in the South Sea seemed to respond to the increase in planktonic organisms. Anchovy, mackerel and sardine increased in abundance since the mid 1970s. High catches of anchovy and mackerel lasted until the 1990s, whereas sardine decreased after the early 1990s. From the matrix of simple correlation coefficient, the Southern Oscillation Index (SOI) exhibited a high correlation with SST in December in the study area ( P  < 0.05). Catches of anchovy and mackerel were positively correlated with chl a and zooplankton during their early life periods, as well as with SST in December.     

A method for estimating the extent of standing fresh waters of different trophic states in Great Britain

1. The total area of standing fresh water in Great Britain has been estimated at approximately 2400 km². The aim of the work described in this paper was to estimate the extent of the dystrophic, oligotrophic, mesotrophic and eutrophic habitat types making up this total. 2. Botanical survey data collected by the statutory nature conservation agencies provided habitat type and surface area for 3500 water bodies, mostly in Scotland. Because survey in England and Wales had been less thorough than in Scotland, it was not possible to estimate the areas of habitat types simply by direct extrapolation from the survey sample to the total resource of standing water in Great Britain. 3. A system of Trophic Ranking Scores (TRS) has been developed for aquatic plant species. Using plant records from the Biological Records Centre, a mean TRS for each 10×10 km square was produced, and Great Britain was divided into TRS bands. For each of these bands, the percentage by surveyed area of each freshwater habitat type was calculated. These percentages were applied to the total area of standing water in each TRS band, obtained from Ordnance Survey summary statistics, in order to predict the proportions of the different habitat types likely to occur in each band. The extent of these habitats in Great Britain as a whole could then be calculated. 4. Estimates produced by this method of the extent of the four standing freshwater habitat types in Great Britain are: dystrophic — 11 km² (0.5%); oligotrophic — 1445 km² (60%); mesotrophic — 267 km² (11%); eutrophic — 679 km² (28%). 5. The application of this work to nature conservation is discussed. Copyright © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Effects of secondary crops on bacterial growth and nitrogen removal in shrimp farm effluent treatment systems

Secondary crops provide a means of assimilating some effluent nitrogen from eutrophic shrimp farm settlement ponds. However, a more important role may be their stimulation of beneficial bacterial nitrogen removal processes. In this study, bacterial biomass, growth and nitrogen removal capacity were quantified in shrimp farm effluent treatment systems containing vertical artificial substrates and either the banana shrimp Penaeus merguiensis (de Man) or the grey mullet, Mugil cephalus L. Banana shrimp were found to actively graze biofilm on the artificial substrates and significantly reduced bacterial biomass relative to a control (24.5±5.6 mg C m⁻² and 39.2±8.7 mg C m⁻², respectively). Bacterial volumetric growth rates, however, were significantly increased in the presence of the shrimp relative to the control (45.2±11.3 mg C m⁻² per day and 22.0±4.3 mg C m⁻² per day, respectively). Specific growth rate, or growth rate per cell, of bacteria was therefore appreciably stimulated by the banana shrimp. Nitrate assimilation was found to be significantly higher on grazed substrate biofilm relative to the control (223±54 mg N m⁻² per day and 126±36 mg N m⁻² per day, respectively), suggesting that increased bacterial growth rate does relate to enhanced nitrogen uptake. Regulated banana shrimp feeding activity therefore can increase the rate of new bacterial biomass production and also the capacity for bacterial effluent nitrogen assimilation. Mullet had a negligible influence on the biofilm associated with the artificial substrate but reduced sediment bacterial biomass (224±92 mg C m⁻²) relative to undisturbed sediment (650±254 mg C m⁻²). Net, or volumetric bacterial growth in the sediment was similar in treatments with and without mullet, suggesting that the growth rate per cell of bacteria in grazed sediments was enhanced. Similar rates of dissolved nitrogen mineralisation were found in sediments with and without mullet but nitrification was reduced. Presence of mullet increased water column suspended solids concentrations, water column bacterial growth and dissolved nutrient uptake. This study has shown that secondary crops, particularly banana shrimp, can play a stimulatory role in the bacterial processing of effluent nitrogen in eutrophic shrimp effluent treatment systems.     

太湖流域城市湖泊大型底栖动物群落结构及影响因素研究

太湖流域城市湖泊富营养化问题严重,研究不同营养水平城市湖泊底栖动物群落的差异及成因,可为丰富底栖动物生态学研究和城市湖泊生态系统恢复提供参考。本研究于2018年12月、2019年3月、6月、9月在太湖流域15个城市湖泊开展了四个季度的调查,结果显示,重度、中度、轻度富营养和中营养水体分别占10.03%、36.89%、42.07%和11.00%。随水体营养下降,透明度显著上升,浊度、总磷和叶绿素a浓度显著下降,大型底栖动物总生物量、蚌类密度和生物量上升,寡毛类密度和生物量下降。在重度富营养水体中,底栖动物总生物量显著小于其他类型水体（P<0.01）;在轻度富营养和中营养水体中,蚌类密度和生物量显著大于重度和中度富营养水体（P<0.01）,寡毛类密度则显著小于重度和中度富营养水体（P<0.01）。Shannon-Wiener、Simpson和Pielou指数随水体营养水平下降,先上升再下降,在轻度富营养水体中最高。结构方程模型分析发现,在轻度富营养和中营养湖泊中,水温、总磷和叶绿素a浓度是影响底栖动物群落的关键环境因子。总磷浓度升高会显著促进软体动物增长（P<0.01）,对螺、蚌的路径系数分别高达0.414和0.440。总磷浓度与水温上升都能显著促进多毛类种群增长（P<0.01）,抑制水生昆虫种群（P<0.01）,路径系数分别为0.376和-0.423。本研究认为,城市湖泊水体中总磷和叶绿素a浓度对大型底栖动物群落结构有重要影响,对磷和藻类的控制,对城市湖泊底栖动物群落恢复和水生态系统修复有重要参考价值。     

Diet and movements of pikeperch (Sander lucioperca) in a large oligotrophic lake with an exceptionally high pikeperch yield

Through the recent increases in abundance, pikeperch (Sander lucioperca) has not only become a valuable target for recreational and commercial fishing, but also the most important top predator in many lakes. Generally oligotrophic Lake Höytiäinen (283 km²) sustains one of the most economically valuable pikeperch stocks in Finland, and its annual fisheries yield (up to 5.5 kg/ha) is exceptionally high among Finnish lakes. Here, we followed seasonal movements of fish using conventional tagging, and studied short‐term and long‐term diet of pikeperch by stomach content and stable isotope analyses to examine if the movements were motivated by prey availability. A clear seasonal migration pattern was observed: in summer, 80% of the tag recoveries were obtained from the shallow and mesotrophic northern and western areas, whereas in autumn and winter, the deep and oligotrophic southern area dominated in the recaptures. The diet of pikeperch consisted of the most abundant fish species in the lake, perch (Perca fluviatilis) and roach (Rutilus rutilus), as well as insects. Stable isotope analysis indicated a shift from a dominance of pelagic food sources to littoral food sources during the growing season of pikeperch. Our results suggest that the pikeperch migrations facilitate efficient material transfer from the mesotrophic part while the deeper and oligotrophic part offers a favourable overwintering environment.     

Relative importance of phytoplankton and periphyton on oyster-culture pens in a eutrophic tropical lagoon

The relative importance of biomass and productivity of phytoplankton and periphyton on oyster-culture pens was quantified from the tidal inlet to the inner region along a transect across a eutrophic tropical lagoon representing a gradient in flushing time over a complete seasonal cycle. Water flushing modified nutrient concentrations in the water column and the responses of phytoplankton and periphyton to nutrient enrichment. Nutrient concentrations were greater at sites in the inner region subject to poor flushing and lower at sites in the outer region subject to fast flushing. Phytoplankton chlorophyll a was greater at sites in the inner region. However, periphyton biomass decreased with increasing flushing times. Daily production rates of phytoplankton were also greater at sites in the inner region, but no significant differences in those of periphyton were observed among the study sites. On the basis of lagoon area, periphyton contributed <6% of the daily system gross production. The relative contribution of periphyton to net production was negligible when compared to that of phytoplankton. Nevertheless, there was a spatial shift in their relative contribution to the system biomass. Periphyton biomass exceeded that of phytoplankton at a well-flushed site with a large number of oyster farms available for periphyton colonization. Our results clearly demonstrate the modifying effects of tidal flushing as well as substratum area on the relative importance of periphyton biomass on oyster-culture pens in response to nutrient enrichment in coastal lagoons.     

Growth and Food Habits of Cage-Cultured Bighead Carp x Silver Carp Hybrids in Ponds of Varying Trophic Status

Four 20m³ cages stocked with 120 bighead carp x silver carp hybrids per cage were placed in each of four ponds varying in trophic status from mesotrophic to hypereutophic. Fish were cultured, without feeding, from 13 March to 1 Octorber 1987. Fish in the mesotrophic pond survived but lost weight (-0.37 g/fish/d). The mesotrophic pond produced insufficient food to sustain fish growth. Maximum fish growth rate occured in the two eutotrophic ponds (6.61vand 7/04 g/fish/d). Fish growth in the hypereutrophic pond was about one-half (3.64 g/fish/d) that in the two eutrophic ponds. Guy analysis of fish in the hypereutrophic pond revealed consumption of larger quantities (P < 0.05) of colonial blue-green algae that were apparently poorly digested and less (P < 0.05) zooplankton (primarily cladocerans) than was found in fish from the eutrophic ponds.     

Limnological Factors Influencing Growth of Cage-Cultured Bighead Carp ♀ x Silver Carp ♂ Hybrids

Four 2-m³ cages each stocked with 120 bighead carp ♀ X silver carp ♂ hybrids were placed in each of four ponds varying in trophic status from mesotrophic to hypereutrophic. Fish were cultured, without feeding, from 13 March to 1 October, 1987. All fish survived but lost weight (-0.37 g/fish/day) in the mesotrophic pond. Maximum fish growth rate occured in the two eutrophic ponds (6.61 and 7.04 g/fish/day). Fish growth in the hypereutrophic pond was about one-half (3.64 g/fish/day) that in the two eutrophic ponds until a sudden thermal destratification and dissolved oxygen depletion killed all the fish. Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that gross phytoplankton primary productivity accounted for 68% of the variation in fish weight gain (R² = 0.68; P < 0.0001) in all ponds. When eliminating primary productivity data from the statistical model, number of algal taxa comprising phytoplankton communities explained 49% of the variation in fish growth (R² = 0.49; P < 0.0001). Conditions of hypereutrophy believed to be detrimental to fish growth were: a decline in cladoceran density; a preponderance of blue-green algae, especially colonial forms with mucilaginous sheaths; a shift from numerous, relatively small plankton algal taxa to fewer but larger forms; degraded water quality.     

偏最小二乘回归法在海洋初级生产力影响因子分析中的应用

叶绿素a浓度是浮游植物生物量的重要指标,能反映出海洋初级生产力的状况。从海洋监测数据中,分析影响叶绿素a浓度的理化环境因子,尝试找出海洋初级生产力的主导因子。将数据标准化,运用变量投影重要性分析和T2椭圆图等辅助分析技术进行成分提取,进行偏最小二乘回归分析。实验结果表明,在贫营养化的川岛外水域,对叶绿素a影响能力最大的因子为磷酸盐和无机氮,其次为酸碱度、盐度和水温,溶解氧影响能力最小。但在富营养化的沙堤口水域,影响能力最大的因子为化学需氧量和溶解氧,水温也成为影响海洋初级生产力的重要因子,而无机氮却成为非重要因子。从以上结果可见,运用偏最小二乘回归法对叶绿素a影响因子进行探讨,既能在监测数据较少的条件下建立数学模型,又能解决多元回归分析时各理化环境因子之间存在多重相关性的问题,具有较高的相关分析精度。     

Fattv acid content of some freshwater fish in lakes of different trophic levels – a bottom-up effect?

Abstract– Various sizes of roach, perch, pike, zander (pike-perch) and crucian carp were collected from lakes of different trophic levels in order to study the variation of lipids and fatty acids (FA) within and between species. Freeze-dried samples of the dorsal muscle were analysed quantitatively for total lipid content and FA content. The results indicate that total lipid and FA contents can vary considerably, both within and between species. In contrast to herbivorous fish, carnivorous-piscivorous fish FA patterns were more constant and independent of size - fry excepted. Lipid and FA contents of roach from two oligotrophic lakes were significantly higher than in roach from a eutrophic lake. Differences in basic food webs may be responsible for these results. In the oligotrophic lakes, the algal flora was dominated by species classified as high quality food for grazers, e. g. flagellates and diatoms. It was shown in earlier papers that these algal groups contain two long-chained FA of φ 3 type (eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid) which are used as criteria indicating high nutritional value. Conversely, the eutrophic lake was dominated by blue-greens, a group of autotrophs lacking these long-chained φ 3 FA. Blue-greens have generally been classified as poor food for grazers. (The fatty acids are described by three numbers, x:yφz, where x=number of carbon atoms, y=number of double bonds, and z=position of the first double bond counted from the methyl end of the molecule.)     

Biomass and production of the euphausiid Euphausia pacifica along the coastal waters off north-eastern Japan

ABSTRACT:   Biomass and production of Euphausia pacifica off south-eastern Hokkaido (41–43°N), Sanriku (38–41°N), and Joban (36–38°N) were investigated every two months from March 1997 to February 1998. High biomass was found in summer–autumn off south-eastern Hokkaido, and in the late winter–early summer off Sanriku and Joban. Annual mean biomass was 381, 314 and 258 mg C/m² off south-eastern Hokkaido, Sanriku, and Joban, respectively. The total production (sum of flesh, moults and eggs) during the survey period off south-eastern Hokkaido (3829 mg C/m²) was comparable with that off Sanriku (3872 mg C/m²); both were much higher than that off Joban (2243 mg C/m²). Somatic production during the survey period contributed the highest proportion (51.5–70.9%) to the total production in each coastal area. The somatic production–biomass ratio in each coastal area (5.2–6.9) was an intermediate value among 25 populations of 16 euphausiid species previously reported. This effect resulted from the negative factor of stagnated growth of adults during summer–winter, coupled with positive factors including continuous occurrence of larvae which show high growth rate throughout the year off Sanriku and Joban, and the numerous larvae occurring in October off south-eastern Hokkaido.

Space–time patterns of co‐variation of biodiversity and primary production in phytoplankton guilds of coastal marine environments

• 1. The relevance of biodiversity to ecosystem processes is a major topic in ecology. Here, we analyse the relationship between biodiversity and productivity of the nano‐ and micro‐phytoplankton guilds in coastal marine ecosystems.
• 2. The patterns of variation of species richness, diversity and primary productivity (as ¹⁴C assimilation) were studied in two marine areas: a eutrophic–mesotrophic area beside the River Po delta (northern Adriatic) and an oligotrophic area around the Salento peninsula (southern Adriatic–Ionian). The study was carried out at 23 sites in the northern area and at 45 sites in the southern area. Sites were arranged on expected spatial and temporal gradients of primary productivity variation, according to distance from the coast, optical depths and seasonal period.
• 3. 167 taxa were identified in the northern area and 153 taxa in the southern area. In both areas, the taxonomic composition of the nano‐ and micro‐phytoplankton guilds exhibited greater temporal than spatial variation. The latter was much higher in the southern area than in the northern area (average dissimilarity between stations being 70.7±0.8% and 44.7±4.2% respectively).
• 4. Primary productivity varied in space and time on the gradients considered. Phytoplankton species richness and diversity exhibited significant patterns of variation in space and time; overall, these were inversely related to the primary productivity patterns in the northern area, whereas they were directly related in the southern area.
• 5. The small individual size and the high turnover rate of phytoplankton are likely to underlie the observed relationships, which emphasized a threshold response to nutrient enrichment in agreement with the ‘paradox of enrichment’. Under resource enrichment conditions, the high turnover of producers leads to hierarchical partitioning of the available resources with an increasing dominance of a few species. Therefore, the relationship observed here seems likely to be explained by the complementarity hypothesis.

Unstructured food webs: a model for aquaculture

Predictions derived from the unstructured food web model developed by Isaacs (1972, 1973) and later modified by Lange and Hurley (1975) can be derived straightforwardly from a simple box model involving plant biomass, heterotroph biomass, and detritus. Differential equations rather than matrices are used to describe the transfer of materials between these boxes. By recasting these equations, several restrictions present in the original model as well as in the Lange and Hurley reformulation can be relaxed. The model was therefore generalized to allow for (1) a distinction between organic inputs due to plant photosynthesis and to applied feeds, (2) a difference in the turnover rates of the plants, heterotrophs, and detritus, and (3) the effect of harvesting a cash crop. This more general model is used to predict the potential biomass of heterotrophs in a freshwater prawn pond, and to predict the outcome of simple managerial manipulations on the system.

食物浓度对来自不同营养水平水体盔型溞（Daphnia galeata）克隆生活史参数的影响

富营养化可导致浮游植物数量和质量的变化，从而对浮游动物产生影响。浮游动物在面对水体富营养化所导致的食物质量变化时存在适应性进化。为探讨浮游动物对食物数量变化的生态适应性，本文比较分析了高食物浓度（2 mg C L-1）和低食物浓度（0.5 mg C L-1）的斜生栅藻（碳磷比为105）对3个来自不同营养水平水库（贫-中营养、中营养和富营养）的盔型溞克隆生活史参数的影响。在高食物浓度处理组，三个克隆幼溞生长速率、首窝和第二窝产仔量和内禀增长率均显著高于低食物组；首次生殖时间和新生幼溞体长显著小于低食物组；首次怀卵体长在两个处理间无显著差异。食物的增加缩短了性成熟时间，增加产仔量，从而提高内禀增长率。首次生殖时间在三个克隆间没有显著差异，但来自中营养水体克隆的产仔量在两个食物处理组中均显著低于其它两个克隆，导致中营养水体克隆内禀增长率小于其它两个克隆。贫-中营养水体克隆在两个食物处理组中内禀增长率均与富营养水体克隆没有显著差异。结果表明，三个盔型溞克隆对食物浓度变化均表现出较高的表型可塑性，但在生活史策略上并未表现出适应性进化。

Carrying capacity and potential environmental impact of fish farming in the cascade reservoirs of the Paranapanema River,Brazil

The objective of this study was to simulate changes in water quality standards caused by the installation of aquaculture parks for caged fish farming in the eight large artificial reservoirs in the Paranapanema River according to the different scenarios of technical and legal limitations: (i) occupancy of 1% of the total surface of the reservoirs and (ii) occupancy according to the environmental carrying capacity. For water quality modelling, these two scenarios were simulated to determine the trophic state index (TSI) of each reservoir. Based on the total area of all reservoirs in the first scenario, the fish farm facilities would occupy 18.3 km² and have an annual fish production of an estimated 513 thousand MT. However, because of limitations in the carrying capacity, the annual production in the second scenario would be 98 thousand MT and the fish farm facilities would occupy 3.5 km². Simulating the TSI for the first scenario, approximately 75% of the total area of all reservoirs was estimated to change from oligo or mesotrophic conditions to eutrophic, supereutrophic and hypereutrophic conditions, and four reservoirs may become completely eutrophic (Canoas 2, Canoas 1, Taquaruçu and Rosana). For the second scenario, however, eutrophic areas accounted for less than 30% of the total, although the Taquaruçu and Rosana reservoirs were still at risk of total eutrophication. These results indicate as well‐intentioned legislation can have unintended environmental consequences in dynamic social–ecological aquaculture systems as in the case of large reservoirs in the Paranapanema River.
