A Weight-And Temperature-Dependent Model of Respiration in Praunus JOURNAL OF PLANKTON RESEARCH j VOLUME 34 j NUMBER 7 j PAGES 642–645 j 2012 SHORT COMMUNICATION A weight- and temperature-dependent model of respiration in Praunus flexuosus (Crustacea, Mysidacea) Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/plankt/article/34/7/642/1465303 by guest on 01 October 2021 MARTIN OGONOWSKI*, KRISTOFFER ANDERSSON AND STURE HANSSON DEPARTMENT OF SYSTEMS ECOLOGY, STOCKHOLM UNIVERSITY, SE-106 91 STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN *CORRESPONDING AUTHOR: [email protected] Received February 1, 2012; accepted in principle March 15, 2012; accepted for publication March 20, 2012 Corresponding editor: Marja Koski The mysid shrimp Praunus flexuosus is common in littoral habitats in the Baltic Sea and other marine areas, but its bioenergetic characteristics have not been studied. We present the first model of its routine respiration rate as a function of size and a natural temperature range. The model explained 87% of the variance in respir- ation, indicating that it could be useful in a larger modeling framework. Specific respiration rates and temperature dependence were consistent with previous reports for this and other littoral mysids at low-to-moderate temperatures. Respiration at higher temperatures was lower, indicating that previous reports may have been biased by residual SDA (specific dynamic action) effects. Increased res- piration due to SDA was detectable over a longer period than previously reported, 30 h.

Sars, 1907 (Crustacea: Mysidacea) was recorded for the first time in the Netherlands in 1997. In the summer of 1998 extremely high den- sities (>6 ind. 1-1) of this neozoon were recorded in one of the Biesbosch reservoirs (Honderd en Dertig). This high abundance can not be explained by a recent invasion. Either H. anomala reached the Nether- lands via the River Rhine, probably aided by shipping, or through transport with ballast water from the Baltic or Black Sea. The invasion had dramatic effects on the zooplankton composition and abundance: from the end of August onwards hardly any Anomopoda, Ostracoda, Rotifera and invertebrate predators (Leptodora kindti and Bythotrephes longimanus) were present.

Exp. Mar. Biol. Ecol. 279 (2002) 61]. This short-term assay is based on the biochemical assessment of changes in the energy reserves (total carbohydrate, protein and lipid content) and the energy consumption (electron transport activity), and has been shown to be predictive of effects at the population level in daphnids [J. Aquat. Ecosyst. Stress Recovery 6 (1997) 43]. In the present study, the CEA methodology was evaluated using adult N. integer exposed for 96 h to the antifoulant tributyltinchloride (TBTCl). From a range-finding experiment with juvenile N. integer, a 96-h LC50 of 164 ng TBTCl/l was calculated. The energy metabolism of N. integer,as summarized by the CEA, was significantly altered by TBTCl exposure. Mysids exposed to 10, 100 and 1000 ng TBTCl/l consumed less energy and had lower respiration rates (in 10 and 1000 ng TBTCl/l treatments) than the control, resulting in a lower CEA.

Smelt, a cold-water anadromous fish, has well adapted to the conditions in the brackish Baltic Sea and has formed local populations. The species is common in coastal waters but the most important marine smelt stocks are confined to the areas where the water of low temperature and relatively high oxygen content persists year round, in the neighbourhood of large estuaries and lagoons. The abundance of smelt is higher in the northern and eastern Baltic: in the Gulf of Bothnia, eastern Gulf of Finland, Gulf of Riga, and Curonian Lagoon. Smelt populations of these areas differ in growth rate, maturation, reproduction conditions, abundance and catch dynamics, etc. Smelt reproduction depends on temperature, it starts and finishes earlier in the southern areas than in the north. The growth rate of the fish is higher in the south and decreases towards north. In the Gulf of Riga the size of younger smelt has increased since the end of the 1960s. However, beginning with the early 1990s the weight of older fish has declined. Key words: smelt stocks, abundance dynamics, growth, reproduction.

Through the exudation of secondary metabolites, this macroalga holds a chemical defence against consumers, with potential toxic effects to native rocky shore communities. This study aims to evaluate the potential impact of A. armata (gametophyte) exudate in a native species, the mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis, in terms of biochemical and organismal effects. The 96 h-LC50 was 3.667% and based on it, exudate concentrations (0.25; 0.5; 1; 2%) were determined to further sublethal experiments.

Boyle, and Chas Emes (2009) Trophodynamics in a shallow lagoon off northwestern Europe (Culbin Sands, Moray Firth): Spatial and temporal variability of epibenthic communities, their diets, and consumption efficiency. Zoological Studies 48(2): 196-214. Epibenthic communities and their diets, at Culbin Sands (a cold-temperate coastal lagoon in the Moray Firth, northeastern Scotland), were sampled every 2-4 wks for 3 yrs (1994-1996). These communities were more abundant and diverse in warmer months, especially in less-exposed areas of the lagoon. The most common species were the brown shrimp Crangon crangon, the shore crab Carcinus maenas, and teleost fish (sandeel Ammodytes tobianus, sticklebacks Gasterosteus aculeatus and Spinachia spinachia, seascorpion Myoxocephalus scorpius, gobies Pomatoschistus microps and Pomatoschistus minutus, flounder Platichthys flesus, and plaice Pleuronectes platessa). Diets of these epibenthic predators included benthic infauna (especially polychaetes Eteone longa, Pygospio elegans, and Fabricia sabella; oligochaetes Tubificoides benedini; isopods Eurydice pulchra; and bivalves Cerastoderma edule and Macoma balthica), small epibenthic organisms (amphipods especially Bathyporeia pilosa and Gammarus sp., and juvenile crabs Carcinus maenas and shrimp Crangon crangon), and zooplankton (harpacticoids, ostracods mostly Cypris sp., calanoid copepods, mysids Praunus flexuosus, and fish eggs and larvae).
