Natural expansion and experimental manipulation of seagrass (Zostera spp.) abundance and the response of infaunal invertebrates     

Paul G. Harrison 《Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science》1987,24(6)

A study of an expanding seagrass bed on the south-west coast of British Columbia, Canada involved documentation and explanation of the pattern of expansion of the vegetation as well as documentation and experimental investigation of the accompanying changes in the distribution of infaunal invertebrates. Expansion followed a major environmental change, improved water clarity initiated in 1969 when a causeway blocked access to the site for silty Fraser River water. The original eelgrass (Zostera marina) bed expanded landward over 30 m year⁻¹, probably causing more and more water to be retained in the bed at low tide and thus improving its own habitat. More rapid expansion occurred from 1979–1983 after Z.japonica colonized at the landward edge of the eelgrass bed and in a separate intertidal area. Expansion ceased around 1983 coincident with, but probably independent of, further construction.Burrowing shrimp (Callianassa californiensis) decreased in abundance between 1977 and 1984 in areas where the two seagrasses colonized. Short-term experiment over one summer and fall showed that removal of all shoots allowed adult shrimp and tube worms to colonize the sediment while addition of shoots of Z. japonica by transplanting caused temporary decreases in shrimp abundance. After a few weeks an established shrimp population destroyed the transplants. Among reasonable alternate hypotheses for the decline in Callianassa, the effect of sediment texture can be eliminated, but either direct negative effects of seagrass, i.e. inhibition of the burrowing of adult shrimp or of settlement of juveniles, or indirect effects, i.e. the harboring of more predators of shrimp in seagrass beds, deserve further study.  相似文献

An overview of the Oyashio ecosystem   总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3  

Yasunori Sakurai   《Deep Sea Research Part II: Topical Studies in Oceanography》2007,54(23-26):2526

The Oyashio shelf region and the seasonally ice-covered areas north of Hokkaido are highly productive, supporting a wide range of species including marine mammals, seabirds and commercially important species in the western subarctic Pacific. The fishes include gadids, such as walleye pollock and Pacific cod, and subarctic migratory pelagic fishes such as chum salmon and pink salmon. It is also an important summer feeding ground for subtropical migrants such as the Japanese sardine, Japanese anchovy, Pacific saury, mackerels, Japanese common squid, whales and seabirds. In recent decades, some components of the Oyashio ecosystem (i.e., phytoplankton, mesozooplankton, gadid fish, and subtropical migrants) have shown changes in species abundance or distribution that are correlated with environmental changes such as the 1976/1977 and 1988/1989 regime shifts. The First Oyashio Intrusion moved northward from the mid-1960s until the late 1970s, when it moved southward until the 1980s, after which it returned to the north again after the mid-1990s. The sea-surface temperature in spring decreased after the late 1970s, increased after the late 1980s, and remained high during the 1990s. The extent of ice cover in the Sea of Okhostk also decreased during the latest warming in the 1980–1990s but has increased again since the late 1990s. This and other variabilities affect the Oyashio ecosystem and the surrounding region.  相似文献   

抑制栉孔扇贝第一极体对受精卵染色体行为及胚胎倍性组成的影响   总被引：4，自引：0，他引：4  

李永仁  阙华勇  张国范 《海洋科学》2005,29(8):66-70

采用细胞松弛素B（CB）处理，栉孔扇贝（Chlamys ferreri）抑制其受精卵的第一极体（PB1），研究抑制PB1对受精卵减数分裂过程及胚胎倍性组成的影响。结果发现，抑制第一极体显著改变了受精卵的染色体行为，在第二次减数分裂过程中共发现4种典型染色体分离类型，分别是三极分离（41．7％）、二极分离（11．7％）、双二极分离（24．9％）和非同步分离（2．8％），其余的受精卵（19．0％）染色体分离行为紊乱。对4-8细胞期胚胎的倍性组成进行分析，发现处理组中含有二倍体（10．9％）、三倍体（12．5％）、四倍体（19.5％）、五倍体（12．6％）以及非整倍体（46．6％）胚胎。研究结果表明，二极分离和双二极分离分别是形成三倍体和四倍体的主要机制，而其他的染色体分离行为将主要形成非整倍体。  相似文献
