  • Modelling Global Fresh Surface Water Temperature
    Modelling global fresh surface water temperature Tessa Eikelboom MSc Thesis Physical Geography May 2010 Supervisors: Dr. L.P.H. van Beek and Prof. Dr. Ir. M.F.P. Bierkens Department of Physical Geography Faculty of Geosciences Utrecht University 1 ABSTRACT A change in fresh surface water temperature influences biological and chemical parameters such as oxygen and nutrient availability, but also has major effects on hydrological and physical processes which include transport, sediment concentration, ice formation and ice melt. The thermal profile of fresh surface waters depends on meteorological and morphological characteristics. Climate change influences the water and energy budget and thereby also the thermal structure of fresh surface waters. The oceans temperature is influenced by the inflow of rivers and streams. The variations in fresh surface water temperatures are only known for a scarce amount of long term temperature records. The understanding of changes in thermal processes by modelling the variations in temperature over time is therefore very useful to simulate the global effect of climate change on water temperatures. A physical based model was validated with regional daily and global monthly water temperature data of fresh surface water which includes both rivers and lakes. The basic assumption for the PCR‐GLOBWB model is the assumption that the fresh surface water temperature is the net result of all incoming en outgoing fluxes. The global hydrological model PCR‐GLOBWB contains a water and heat budget. The heat balance is solved using the following terms: short‐wave insolation, long‐wave atmospheric radiation, water‐surface backscatter, evaporation, air/water conduction and can be simplified into lateral and advective energy.

  • Hydrogen Sulfide Distribution in Bottom and Pore Waters During an Anoxic Period in Lake Nakaumi, Japan
    LAGUNA(Research for Coastal Lagoon Environments)11, p.65-68(2004) Hydrogen sulfide distribution in bottom and pore waters during an anoxic period in Lake Nakaumi, Japan Saburo Sakai1,Masaru Nakaya2 and Katsumi Takayasu3 Abstract: Hydrogen sulfide concentrations in bottom water and surface sediment pore water were measured during an anoxic period (September 2003) in brackish Lake Nakaumi, Japan. Bottom water hydrogen sulfide concentrations were greatest (5-127μg-Sl−1;except for artificially dredged area) in the southern part of the lake and the Yonago-Bay area, where the hypolimnion is most stagnant, whereas hydrogen sulfide from pore water was detected ( ~1-37 mg-Sl−1)inamuch wider area. This indicates that surface sediments may maintain anaerobic conditions long after the bottom water return to oxygen rich. Hydrogen sulfide was not detected in bottom and pore waters near the Sakai-StraitandOhashi River, where seawater and river water flow into the lake. In comparison with two other Japanese brackish lakes (Lake Abashiri and Lake Asokai), Lake Nakaumi has a lowerconcentration of hydrogen sulfide. Lake Nakaumi is characterized by an unstable hypolimnion, in which anoxic conditions are easily mediated by an oxygen-rich tidal-induced inflow. Keywords: Hydrogen sulfide, anoxic environments, Lake Nakaumi Introduction ‰and that of the lower layer is about 27‰(Date et al., 1989). The vertical gradient in salinity increases during Bottom water in brackish lakes often becomes anoxic the summer, when the bottom water of the lake develops due to the development of a stagnant hypolimnion. oxygen-poor or anoxic conditions. This indicates that the Bacterial mats and associated sulfate reduction often lake bottom may be below the redox boundary during occur in anoxic bottom waters and at the redox summers.

Virus inspections were conducted on ovarian fluids, mixed kidney and spleen specimens, epithelial tumor tissues, and blood samples. Four viruses were isolated during the course of this investigation. Infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV) was found in the ovarian fluid of chum and masu salmon. Oncorhynchus masou virus (OMV), discovered in 1978 and specific to masu salmon, has been isolated from ovarian fluids and epithelial tumor tissues at 13 sampling sites.

Of these species, T. hakonensis is widely distributed in Japan and is important in commercial and recreational fisheries. Two species, T. hakonensis and T. brandtii, exhibit anadromy. In this paper, information on the protistan and metazoan parasites of the four species of Tribolodon in Japan is compiled based on the literature published for 106 years between 1908 and 2013, and the parasites, including 44 named species and those not identified to species level, are listed by higher taxon as follows: Ciliophora (2 named species), Myxozoa (1), Trematoda (18), Monogenea (0), Cestoda (3), Nematoda (9), Acanthocephala (2), Hirudinida (1), Mollusca (1), Branchiura (0), Copepoda (6 ), and Isopoda (1). For each taxon of parasite, the following information is given: its currently recognized scientific name, previous identification used for the parasite occurring in or on Tribolodon spp.; habitat (freshwater, brackish, or marine); site(s) of infection within or on the host; known geographical distribution in Japan; and the published source of each locality record.
