We hypothesized that temporal variation in fish species composition and community structure in a low complexity habitat in the Pueblo Viejo Lagoon, Mexico, is influenced by diel light/dark cycles and tidal stage, and by seasonal changes in salinity and temperature. We collected a total of 17,661 individuals during 2‐h interval sampling over six bi‐monthly 24‐h sampling cycles representing 53 species, of which 11 (~20%) were previously unknown in the system. Diel variation indicated that significantly higher numbers of individuals and species were caught at night, whereas diversity and evenness were higher during the day. Species richness was significantly higher in July and January, whereas diversity and evenness peaked around May; both were correlated with temperature. Diel variation in species composition was influenced primarily by the light/dark cycle. Cluster analyses of each diel cycle separated fish assemblages from midday samples from those of nocturnal samples, separated by an extended wide transition period as fish moved at dawn and during the late afternoon/dusk. Significant shifts (as determined by MANOVA) in assemblage structure occurred between months. Canonical correspondence analysis showed that temperature and day/night effects were the most important environmental variables structuring the fish community. This constrained ordination also defined species with specific habitat preferences as follows: (i) diurnal, warm temperature species (mainly planktivores) (Brevoortia gunteri, Cetengraulis edentulus, Diapterus auratus, and Membras martinica); (ii) nocturnal, warm temperature species (mainly predators) (Citharichthys spilopterus, Cathorops melanopus, and Bairdiella spp.); and (iii) low temperature, diurnal species (Brevoortia patronus and Mugil curema) or those with twilight and nocturnal distributions (Anchoa mitchilli, the most numerically abundant species). Our results indicate that diel and seasonal changes in fish community structure were mainly related to day/night cycles and temperature regimes. 相似文献

Vertical flow cells (VFCs) are key components of passive acid mine drainage (AMD) treatment systems and require organic substrates that create anaerobic conditions and encourage bacterial sulfate reduction. In the high elevation desert of Potosí, Bolivia, the low productivity landscape limits the availability of sustainable and economical organic substrates. Locally available brewery waste, llama manure, and cow manure were evaluated as potential VFC substrates in a preliminary laboratory fed-batch study to assist in passive treatment system design. Two abandoned AMD discharges were collected from Cerro Rico de Potosí. Discharge A had an initial pH of 2.96, specific conductance of 3.31 mS/cm, and acidity of 1,350 mg/L as CaCO3 equivalent. Discharge B had an initial pH of 3.85, specific conductance of 1.87 mS/cm, and acidity of 1,000 mg/L as CaCO3 equivalent. Triplicate fed-batch reactors were set up in 1-L cubitainers with each potential substrate exposed to each AMD, yielding a total of 18 reactors exposed for 9 days and sampled two times for anions and dissolved metals. Cow manure reactors exhibited the greatest pH and alkalinity increases. Cd, Co, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb, and Zn decreased in all reactors. SO4 concentrations only decreased in brewery waste reactors. However, SO4 reducing bacteria was higher for cow manure reactors. Results suggest that llama and cow manure are the more labile substrates, with llama manure being the most affordable. Brewery waste could be a suitable less-labile long-term substrate amendment. However, longer-term studies are needed to determine the optimum VFC substrate mixture in this unique circumstance. 相似文献

This study investigates the spatial and temporal characteristics of cold surges that propagates northward along the eastern flank of the Andes from subtropical to tropical South America analysing wintertime in situ daily minimum temperature observations from Argentina, Bolivia and Peru and ERA-40 reanalysis over the 1975–2001 period. Cold surges usually last 2 or 3 days but are generally less persistent in the southern La Plata basin compared to tropical regions. On average, three to four cold surges are reported each year. Our analysis reveals that 52 % of cold episodes registered in the south of La Plata basin propagate northward to the northern Peruvian Amazon at a speed of around 20 m s?1. In comparison to cold surges that do not reach the tropical region, we demonstrate that these cold surges are characterized, before they reach the tropical region, by a higher occurrence of a specific circulation pattern associated to southern low-level winds progression toward low latitudes combined with subsidence and dry condition in the middle and low troposphere that reinforce the cold episode through a radiative effect. Finally, the relationship between cold surges and atmosphere dynamics is illustrated for the two most severe cold intrusions that reached the Peruvian and Bolivian Amazon in the last 20 years. 相似文献
