However, little 15 is known about these planktonic veligers and identification of the larval state of many Cymatiidae 16 is challenging at best. Here we describe the first high-quality scanning electron microscopy images 17 of the developing veliger larvae of Monoplex pilearis and Monoplex parthenopeus (Gastropoda: 18 Cymatiidae). The developing shell of Monoplex veligers was captured by SEM, showing plates 19 secreted to form the completed shell. The incubation time of the two species was recorded and 20 found to be different; M. parthenopeus took 24 days to develop fully and hatch out of the egg 21 capsules, whereas M. pilearis took over a month to leave the egg capsule. Using scanning electron 22 microscopy and geometric morphometrics, the morphology of veliger larvae was compared. No 23 significant differences were found between the shapes of the developing shell between the two 24 species; however, it was found that M. pilearis was significantly larger than M.

Constant commercial fishing for groundfish has occurred since the 1960s. The implementation of areas closed to bottom trawling to protect critical habitat for fish or crabs resulted in successful management of these fisheries. The efficacy of these closures on non-target species is unknown. This study determined if differences in abundance, biomass, diversity and evenness of dominant fish and invertebrate species occur among areas open and closed to bottom trawling in the eastern Bering Sea between 1996 and 2000.

  • The Significance of Sea Ice Algae in the Pacific Arctic Determined by Highly Branched Isoprenoid Biomarkers
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: THE SIGNIFICANCE OF SEA ICE ALGAE IN THE PACIFIC ARCTIC DETERMINED BY HIGHLY BRANCHED ISOPRENOID BIOMARKERS Chelsea Wegner Koch, Doctor of Philosophy, 2021 Dissertation directed by: Dr. Lee Cooper Professor, University Maryland Center for Environmental Science Our current understanding of ice algae as a carbon source at the base of the Arctic food web is limited because of difficulties unequivocally distinguishing sympagic (sea ice) from pelagic primary production once assimilated by consumers. For this study, I tested the utility of highly branched isoprenoids (HBI), which are unusual lipids produced by diatoms. This includes a biomarker found exclusively in Arctic sea ice termed the ice proxy with 25-carbon atoms (IP25) and two other HBIs with sea ice and pelagic sources. HBI measurements in the Pacific Arctic (the northern Bering and Chukchi seas) were sparse compared to the rest of the Arctic prior to this investigation. Analysis of surface sediments and cores collected across the continental shelf revealed a latitudinal gradient of increasing sympagic HBIs. Some of the highest concentrations of IP25 recorded in the Arctic were found in the Chukchi Sea. Fluxes of IP25 indicated year- round export of ice algal lipids in this region. Persistent diatom fluxes and rapid burial of sympagic carbon are likely a sustaining resource for infaunal communities throughout the year. As such, HBIs were measured in benthic primary consumers and indicated an elevated utilization of ice algae by surface and subsurface deposit feeders, while suspension feeders by contrast showed greater pelagic organic carbon utilization. Sympagic organic carbon signatures were largely influenced by the HBI content in local sediments.

Krolewicza 4, 71−550 Szczecin Abstract: Hornsund, an Arctic fjord in the west coast of Spitsbergen (Svalbard), was se− lected as All Taxa Biodiversity Inventory (ATBI) site under EU 5th Framework Concerted Action BIOMARE (2000–2002), especially due to its pristine, undisturbed natural charac− ter. On the base of large material (89 stations located throughout the fjord and 129 Van Veen grab samples) collected during cruises of RV Oceania in July in 2002, 2003, 2005 and 2007 and literature search a comprehensive list of species recorded within Hornsund area, on the soft bottom with depth range of 30–250 m is provided. Over 220 species were identified in− cluding 93 species of Polychaeta, 62 species of Mollusca and 58 species of Crustacea. Spe− cies list is supported by information on the zoogeographical status, body length and biologi− cal traits of dominant species. Need for further research on Hornsund soft bottom fauna with more sampling effort is highlighted.

  • The Pelagic Propagule's Toolkit
    The pelagic propagule’s toolkit: An exploration of the morphology, swimming capacity and behaviour of marine invertebrate propagules by © Emaline M. Montgomery A Dissertation submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Marine Biology, Department of Ocean Sciences, Faculty of Science, Memorial University of Newfoundland June 2017 St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador Abstract The pelagic propagules of benthic marine animals often exhibit behavioural responses to biotic and abiotic cues. These behaviours have implications for understanding the ecological trade-offs among complex developmental strategies in the marine environment, and have practical implications for population management and aquaculture. But the lack of life stage-specific data leaves critical questions unanswered, including: (1) Why are pelagic propagules so diverse in size, colour, and development mode; and (2) do certain combinations of traits yield propagules that are better adapted to survive in the plankton and under certain environments? My PhD research explores these questions by examining the variation in echinoderm propagule morphology, locomotion and behaviour during ontogeny, and in response to abiotic cues. Firstly, I examined how egg colour patterns of lecithotrophic echinoderms correlated with behavioural, morphological, geographic and phylogenetic variables. Overall, I found that eggs that developed externally (pelagic and externally-brooded eggs) had bright colours, compared
