This thesis may not be reproduced in whole or in part, by photocopy or other means, without the permission of the author. ii Supervisory Committee Coastal aquaculture in British Columbia: Perspectives on finfish, shellfish, seaweed and Integrated Multi-Trophic Aquaculture (IMTA) from three First Nation communities by Kathryn Tebbutt B.A., University of British Columbia, 2009 Supervisory Committee Dr. Mark Flaherty, (Department of Geography) Supervisor Dr. Denise Cloutier, (Department of Geography) Departmental Member Dr. Stephen Cross, (Department of Geography) Departmental Member iii Abstract Supervisory Committee Dr. Mark Flaherty, (Department of Geography) Supervisor Dr. Denise Cloutier, (Department of Geography) Departmental Member Dr. Stephen Cross, (Department of Geography) Departmental Member Most aquaculture tenures in British Columbia (BC) are located in coastal First Nation traditional territories, making the aquaculture industry very important to First Nation communities. Marine aquaculture, in particular salmon farming, has been labeled one of the most controversial industries in BC and various groups with differing opinions have created a wide-spread media debate known as the “aquaculture controversy”. Industry, government, and (E)NGO’s are often the most visible players; First Nations, especially those without aquaculture operations directly in their territories, are often excluded or underrepresented in the conversation.

    Zootaxa: Systematics of the Genus Scleroplax Rathbun, 1893

    Zootaxa 1344: 33–41 (2006) ISSN 1175-5326 (print edition) www.mapress.com/zootaxa/ ZOOTAXA 1344 Copyright © 2006 Magnolia Press ISSN 1175-5334 (online edition) Systematics of the genus Scleroplax Rathbun, 1893 (Crustacea: Brachyura: Pinnotheridae) ERNESTO CAMPOS Facultad de Ciencias, Universidad Autónoma de Baja California, Apartado Postal 2300, Ensenada, Baja California, 22800 México. E-mail: [email protected]; [email protected] Abstract The taxonomic status of the monotypic genus Scleroplax Rathbun, 1893, is evaluated and separated from other genera of the Pinnixa White, 1846, complex. Distinguishing characters of Scleroplax are a hard, subheptagonal and dorsally, highly convex carapace, and a third maxilliped with a propodus that extends to the end of the dactylus. The genera Scleroplax, Pinnixa, Austinixa Heard & Manning, 1997, Glassella Campos & Wicksten, 1997, Indopinnixa Manning & Morton, 1987, and Tetrias Rathbun, 1898, share a carapace than is wider than long and a distinct lateral exopod lobe on the third maxilliped, all of which may represent monophyletic characters. Updated information on the distribution and hosts of S. granulata Rathbun, 1893, indicate that the species now ranges from Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada to El Coyote estuary, Punta Abreojos, Baja California Sur, México. It inhabits burrows of the echiuroid Urechis caupo Fisher & MacGinitie, 1928, and the mud shrimps Neotrypaea californiensis (Dana, 1854), N. gigas (Dana, 1852) (new host record), Upogebia pugettensis (Dana, 1852), and occasionally U. macginiteorum Williams, 1986 (new host record). Key words: Crustacea, Brachyura, Pinnotheridae, Scleroplax, systematics, geographic distribution, new hosts Resumen El estatus taxonómico del género monotípico Scleroplax Rathbun, 1893, es evaluado y separado de otros géneros del complejo Pinnixa White, 1846.

    THERMAL AND DIETARY OPTIMIZATION IN THE HATCHERY CULTURE OF JUVENILE PACIFIC GEODUCK CLAMS (PANOPEA GENEROSA, GOULD 1850) by Bianca Danielle Arney B.Sc. (Hons.), Hawaii Pacific University, 2009 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE in The Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies (Applied Animal Biology) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) September 2013 © Bianca Danielle Arney, 2013 Abstract This research is the first to examine thermal and dietary optimization in the hatchery culture of juvenile Pacific geoduck (Panopea generosa). Chapter 2 investigated temperature and feed ration optimization; chapter 3 examined live algae substitution with the spray-dried species, Schizochytrium spp. or Spirulina (Arthrospira platensis). Geoduck growth and survival were measured to quantify treatment success. The temperature trial tested four temperatures (7, 11, 15, 19 °C) in juvenile and post-larval culture. Temperature promoted a significant growth effect in both sizes. The 19 °C culture elicited a delayed growth benefit in juveniles, and suppressed ash- free dry weight (AFDW), which recommends utilization of 15 °C. In contrast, geoduck post- larvae displayed immediate (post 7 d) shell growth acceleration at 19 °C. The 19 °C temperature shortened the rearing period by 2.9 d, suggesting its application in post-larval culture. The ration experiment examined the feed ration requirements of four geoduck juvenile size classes. Ration quantities between 0.0 - 128.0x10⁶ equivalent Isochrysis cells individual⁻¹ day⁻¹ were tested. All treatments received Chaetoceros muelleri and Isochrysis sp. mixed by AFDW. Following shell length/wet weight optimization, the following rations (10⁶ equivalent Isochrysis cells individual⁻¹ day⁻¹) should be applied between week 1 and 4 of the tested geoduck culture: 4.0 (1); 8.0 (2); 16.0 or 32.0 (shell length or wet weight optimum, respectively; 3); and 32.0 (4).

    2011 Annual Report

    2011 ANNUAL REPORT A I of A from the president Daniel Radcliffe, the British actor who is better known as Harry Potter in the just-completed fi lm series, has announced that he now plans to study archaeology at university. What with all the technological “wizardry”—from GIS to laser scanning to electron spin resonancing— that has transformed archaeological fi eldwork in the last decade, Radcliffe will no doubt feel completely at home. Here at the AIA we embrace a mix of old and new as we look toward our future. Our print publications, American Journal of Archaeology and ARCHAEOLOGY magazine, remain as strong as ever, but we also are developing plans for an enhanced website and digital publications, including an online journal devoted to best practices in conservation. We recognize that such media will play an ever more dominant role in education and communication and we want to continue to reach the next generation of archaeologists. Throughout North America, our 108 societies present programs of astonishing diversity and creativity. Many owe their success to partnering with other local organizations such as universities and museums. Indeed, our partnerships with groups that share our mission— among them Global Heritage Fund, the American Philological Association, and the Registry of Professional Archaeologists—help expand our ability to save and record the material record. Our coordinated efforts with them maximizes our impact in recessionary times like the present. Yet new initiatives can still be launched even when budgets are constrained. Two of the AIA’s most exciting recent efforts, our Site Preservation Program and our Troop Lectures, refl ect the vision of leaders who sought innovative ways to answer needs in the cultural heritage fi eld.

    Effect of Diet and Sex-Sorting on Growth and Gonad Development in Farmed South African Abalone, Haliotis Midae

    Effect of diet and sex-sorting on growth and gonad development in farmed South African abalone, Haliotis midae A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE of RHODES UNIVERSITY By DEVIN WILLIAM PHILIP AYRES December 2013 ABSTRACT Abalone, Haliotis midae, farmers in South Africa that feed formulated diets reported a periodic drop in abalone growth during periods of increased gonad development. A large drop in abalone biomass was noticed after presumed spawning events. This study was aimed to determine the effect of diet and sex-sorting on gonad development in abalone. Experiments were conducted on a commercial abalone farm from July 2012 to the end of June 2013. Isonitrogenous and isoenergetic diets were formulated with two protein sources. A fishmeal and soybean meal (S-diet) diet and a fishmeal only (F-diet) diet were fed to abalone (50 - 70 g abalone-1) over 12 months. Weight and length gain, gonad bulk index (GBI), visceral index (%) and meat mass index (%) were determined monthly and seasonally. A histological study on the female gonads was conducted. This study also included an experiment to test the effect of sex-sorting (70 - 80 g abalone-1) on growth and body composition with treatments including males (M), females (F) and equal numbers of males and females (MF). Weight gain and length gain were faster in S-diet-fed abalone (RM-ANOVA, F (1, 16) = 7.77, p = 0.01; F (1, 69) = 49.9, p < 0.001, respectively). Gonad development was significantly affected by the inclusion of soybean meal with S-diet-fed abalone showing higher GBI-values than F- diet-fed abalone (RM-ANOVA, F (1, 33) = 16.22, p = 0.0003).

    CHICAGO, ILLINOIS JANUARY 2 – 5, 2014 WELCOME TO CHICAGO! Dear AIA Members and Colleagues, Welcome to Chicago for the 115th Annual Meeting of the Archaeological Institute of America. This year’s meeting combines an exciting program presenting cutting-edge research with the unique opportunity to socialize, network, and relax with thousands of your peers from the US, Canada, and more than 30 foreign countries. Appropriately for an urban venue settled in the 19th century by ethnic Europeans, this year’s meeting will feature several sessions on East European archaeology. And sessions devoted to heritage and preservation and digital methodologies in archaeology touch upon increasingly central concerns in the discipline. Back by popular demand are the undergraduate paper session and the Lightning Session. We are indebted to Trustee Michael L. Galaty and the Program for the Annual Meeting Committee that he chairs for fashioning such a stimulating program. Table of Contents Some of the other highlights of this year’s meeting include: General Information ......4-5 Opening Night Lecture and Reception (Thursday, 6:00–9:00 pm) Program-at-a-Glance 10-11 We kick off the meeting with a public lecture by Dr. Garrett Fagan, Professor of Ancient History at Penn State University. In “How to Stage a Bloodbath: Theatricality and Artificiality at the Roman Arena” Fagan explores Exhibitors .................. 12-13 the theatrical aspects of Roman arena games – the stage sets, equipment of the fighters, etc–that created an artificial landscape in which the violence of the spectacle was staged. Fagan will also consider what these Thursday, January 2 features tell us about Roman attitudes toward the violence of the games, and how spectators reacted to them Day-at-a-Glance ..........14 psychologically (Thursday, 6 pm).
