A GIS-based step-wise procedure for assessing physical exposure in fragmented archipelagos

Wind and waves are major forces affecting the geomorphology and biota in coastal areas. We present a generally applicable method for measuring and calculating fetch length, fetch direction and wave exposure. Fetch length and direction, measured by geographic information system-based methods, are used along with wind direction and wind speed data to estimate wave height and period by applying forecasting curves. The apparent power of waves approaching the shore, used as a proxy for wave exposure, is then calculated by a linear wave model. We demonstrate our method by calculating fetch lengths and wave exposure indices for five areas with varying exposure levels and types of meteorological conditions in the Finnish Archipelago Sea, situated in the northern Baltic Sea. This method is a rapid and accurate means of estimating exposure, and is especially applicable in areas with geomorphologically varying and complicated shorelines. We expect that our method will be useful in several fields, such as basic biogeographical and biodiversity research, as well as coastal land-use planning and management.  相似文献

Meiobenthic Organisms as Indicators of Mixing Processes in the Baltic Surface Sediments*     

Janusz Pempkowiak  Joanna Kozuch  Maria Szymelfenig 《Marine Ecology》1996,17(1-3):175-179

Abstract. Two sediment cores were collected in the southern Baltic Sea and sliced into 1.0cm-thick layers. Sediments of each layer were analysed for activities of ²¹⁰Pb, ¹³⁷Cs, ¹³⁴Cs and for the density of meiobenthic organisms (meiofauna). Zones with the rapid mixing occur in the uppermost layers (0–3 cm) of the cores based on ^I34Cs profiles. The extent and density of meiofauna confirmed the rapid mixing and revealed layers with slow mixing (4–8 cm). Sedimentation rates were derived from ²¹⁰Pb profiles below the mixing zones (1.21 and 1.72 mm a-^I) and were confumed by ¹³⁷Cs distribution. Of twenty-one major meiofauna taxa commonly found in the Baltic sediments, three were present in the cores.  相似文献   

厦门港湾和闽南-台湾浅滩海域鱼类感染吸虫的调查研究   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

曹华 《台湾海峡》1991,(2)

本文根据1980～1986年厦门港湾和闽南-台湾浅滩海域的调查资料,报道了该海区鱼类感染复殖吸虫的概况。在我们检查的106种鱼类中,从其中54种的消化道和1种的体腔中发现复殖吸虫标本1269个,感染率为28.24%。本海区鱼类生态习性虽有差异,其感染率和阳性鱼的感染度可能有明显差异,但从总体上看,不同生态类群鱼类的吸虫密度分布甚为均匀。  相似文献

网箱养鱼诱发有机物污染的生物监测     

叶立勋 《中国海洋大学学报(自然科学版)》1990,(3)

介绍三种通过底栖动物群落结构的变化对有机物污染监测和评价的方法,并分别对澳大利亚塔斯马尼亚州Nubeena鳟鱼养殖场内由高密度网箱养鱼诱发的有机物污染进行了检测。结果表明:距网箱垂线0m处为严重污染区域,10m处为中度污染区域,30m为过渡类型,其有机物对该处底栖生物仍具有害影响,60m处为轻度有机物富集区,但该处有机物对底栖生物的总效应是有益的,60m以外为正常区域。本文还对三种方法的适用性进行了讨论。  相似文献
