Such consortia have become recognized as having significant impacts on the development, health, and disease status of their hosts. Since understanding the mechanistic connections between an individual’s genetic makeup and their complete set of traits (i.e., genome to phenome) requires consideration at different levels of biological organization, this should include interactions with, and the organization of, microbial consortia.

Box 52 Hawaii National Park, Hawaii 96718 February 1989 UNIVERSITY OF HAWAII AT MANOA NATIONAL PARK SERVICE CONTRACT NO. CA 8015-2-0001 ABSTRACT Seven sites containing a total of 19 anchialine pools were examined along the coast of Hawaii Volcanoes National Park (HAVO) in May and July, 1988. Location, physical characteristics, aquatic macrofauna, and floral comities were recorded from 14 pools (one had no fauna). Fauna included 17 taxa (seven fishes, nine crustaceans, one mollusk). Flora recorded from the pools was in most cases a mixed community of cyanophytes; relatively few pools contained chlorophytes, rhodophytes, and chrysophytes. Reduction of the native biota in many anchialine pools of HAVO is largely attributed to the alien prawn Macrobrachium Lrand the advanced senescence of two pool complex sites. The alien sourbush, Pluchea odorata, accelerates senescence of pools by contributing litter. Results of this study are compared with those from anchialine pools of other locations in Hawai'i, and management recommendations are provided. During a preliminary aerial survey of coastal ponds by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in 1986 (Yuen 1986), several anchialine pool sites were tentatively identified in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park (HAVO) between Wahalula and Kalaha (Figs.

  • Anchialine Pond Detective Story
    Activity #1 Coastal Unit 3 Activity #1 Anchialine Pond Detective Story ••• Class Period One Anchialine Pond Detective Story Materials & Setup • “The Anchialine Pond Detective Story” acetates (master, pp. 11-19) • Overhead projector and screen For each student or group of three to four students • Student Page “The Anchialine Pond Detective Worksheet” (pp. 20-25) For each student • Student Page “Hypothetically Speaking” (pp. 26-28) Instructions 1) Divide the class into groups of three to four students, or have students work individually. Hand out the Student Page “The Anchialine Pond Detective Worksheet.” 2) There are eight acetates. • Acetate #1 introduces anchialine ponds and the activity. • Acetates #2-6 each pose a mystery for students to resolve to by developing hypotheses. Most include the question, a photo, and a series of observations. • Acetate #7 is an “Information Interlude” that provides students with background for the next “mystery” acetate. • Acetate #8 is another “mystery” acetate that includes a question, a photo, and a series of observations. Use the acetates as a “script” for this activity. Go through the acetates, one by one, giving student groups time to come up with a hypothesis for each question and write it on their worksheets. You may incorporate class discussion into this activity by asking students to discuss their ideas openly with each other before recording their hypotheses. Before moving on to the next acetate, review the correct answer using the responses and additional information provided in the teacher back- ground for “The Anchialine Pond Detective Story” (pp. 7-10). 3) Hand out the Student Page “Hypothetically Speaking” as homework.

  • Disturbance in the Anchialine Ecosystem: Ramifications for Ecology and Physiology
    Disturbance in the anchialine ecosystem: ramifications for ecology and physiology by Justin Chase Havird A dissertation submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Auburn, Alabama May 3, 2014 Keywords: ecophysiology, invasive species, crustacean, osmoregulation, gene expression Copyright 2014 by Justin Chase Havird Approved by Scott R Santos, Chair, Associate Professor of Biological Sciences Raymond P. Henry, Professor of Biological Sciences Mark R. Liles, Associate Professor of Biological Sciences Alan E. Wilson, Associate Professor of Biological Sciences/Fisheries, Aquaculture, and Aquatic Sciences Abstract Habitats in the anchialine ecosystem are defined as coastal ponds, pools, and caves that lack surface connections to the open ocean, but possess both seawater and freshwater influences due to subterranean connections to the ocean and groundwater. Such habitats are rare worldwide, but are concentrated in the Hawaiian Islands. Organisms that live in these habitats must cope with changing salinities, variable oxygen regimes, high levels of UV radiation, and anthropogenic effects such as pollution and invasive species. Accordingly, such organisms represent an opportunity to shed light on environmental physiology and invasive species biology. However, few studies have investigated physiology or response to invasive species in anchialine organisms. Accordingly, the objective of this dissertation is to examine the effect of natural and anthropogenic disturbances on the physiology and ecology of anchialine organisms. Chapter 1 provides an introduction to the anchialine ecosystem and outlines the specific aims of the dissertation. Chapter 2 presents a series of field and laboratory based experiments investigating how endemic Hawaiian anchialine organisms have responded to invasive fishes.

The ponds are in the Resource Subzone of the State Land Use Conservation District. The largest pond is located just inside of the coastal dune. It was partially lined with rock walls and managed as a fishpond by indigenous Hawaiians, although it lacks some of the 'classic' loko i 'a elements such as makaha and 'auwai. A smaller pond is located 100 feet inland from the first, while a third lies in a different section of the park and is bounded by the sandy coast and a lava flow.

Anchialine Pool Models HE ground beneath our feet looks different in different parts of the country. In cities, a thin layer of concrete or asphalt covers a layer of soil. Below the soil is bedrock. Soil layers are thicker in flat, moist regions and thinner in arid regions, on steep slopes, or young lava. Bedrock could consist of igneous, metamorphic, or sedimentary rock. Some common sedimentary rocks such as conglomerate and sandstone can allow water to soak through the large pores. Siltstone, lime- stone, and igneous and metamorphic rocks have much smaller pore space that limits the rate at which water can flow through. Using sand, we can make a simple model that behaves like our local ground. The Hawaiian islands have unique groundwater features called anchialine pools. These pools are windows to the groundwater sys- tem and important indicators of the health of the entire system. Letʻs make a model of them to learn how they work! 3 Step 1 Fill one of the 50 ml beakers with blue colored water.
