  • Concepts of Underwater Experimentation
    Helgol~inder wiss. Meeresunters. 24, 54-77 (1973) Concepts of underwater experimentation J. A. OTT I, Zoologisches Institut, Universitlit Wien; Wien, Austria KURZFASSUNG: Konzepte der Unterwasser-Experimentation. In den letzten zehn Jahren sind Unterwasseruntersuchungen zu einem nicht mehr wegzudenkenden und wichtigen Be- standteil marinbiologischer Forschungen geworden. Die technische Entwicklung dieser methodo- logisch definierten Disziplin ftihrte yore Schwimm- und Ger~tetauchen zu Tauchbooten, Un- terwasserh2iusern und ferngesteuerten Fahrzeugen. Die Anwendungsbereiche umfassen Be- obachtung und Aufsammlung bis zur genauen Messung und Probennahme fiir 5kologische Un- tersudaungen. Echte experimentelle Arbeit wird jedoch noch immer fast ausschlieglich iln La- bora~orium durchgef~ihrt. Daher ist Experimentation no& immer auf eine begrenzte Auswahl an ,haltbaren" Organismen, eine begrenzte Zahl simulierbarer und kontrollierbarer Faktoren und insbesonders an einen begrenzten Komplexit~itsgrad der Untersuchungsobjekte gebunden. Dies ist um so bedauerlicher, als sich in der Okologie immer deutlicher die Notwendigkeit yon Systemanalysen abzeidmet. Der gegenw~rtige Standard in Unterwasserbeobachtung und Daten- gewinnung und die Entwi&lung yon Muitivariatentechniken ma&t es m~Sglich, die ,,kontrol- lierten Bedingungen" im Laboratorinm - die zu oi~ eine gef~ihrliche Vereinfachung sind - durch die ,,gemessenen Bedingungen" in situ zu ersetzen. Die Dringlichkeit experimenteller Arbeit an 6kotogischen Systemen kann nicht genug betont werden in einer Zeit, in der wir versuchen miissen, mit den Einfli~ssen unserer Zivilisation auf die natfirlichen Lebensriiume fertigzuwerden, Voraussagen treffen und Modelte entwickeln zu kSnnen. INTRODUCTION The "International He lgoland Symposium 1972" sponsored by the Biologische Anstalt Helgoland is concerned with the topic "Man in the Sea", emphasizing the establishment of underwater observation and experimentation as an integral part of marine biology.

The completion of the work presented in this document would not have been possible without the support, conversation, commiseration, patience, and ample good humor of my ʻohana near and far. The attainment of this degree is the culmination of many, many years of curiosity and wonder shared with my friends and family who have resolutely encouraged my pursuit of scientific truth. I dedicate this manuscript to all of you. Finally, to all of the women- particularly women scientists- who confronted a world shaped by and for men, and decided they would do it anyway: my path was clearer because of your resilience. I count the submission of this dissertation as one more seed of progress that may facilitate the realization of a world shaped by strong, tough, educated, and independent women. ii ABSTRACT Hawaiian photic reef ecosystems, found from the surface to 30 m depth, are imperiled by anthropogenic stressors such as climate change, overfishing, introduction of invasive species, and sedimentation from coastal construction.
