    REEF FISH SURVEY METHODS AND APPLICATION TO POPULATION DYNAMICS OF PARROTFISH WITHIN THE KINGDOM TONGA Beth Vanderhaven A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the completion of a Masters of Science (MSc) in the School of Biological Sciences, University of Canterbury. School of Biological Sciences March 2016 1 DEDICATION This thesis is dedicated to the memory of my Opa, Walter. A man whose love of science has passed through the generations, and who I hope to make proud. 2 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Firstly, I would like to thank my supervisor, Dr Sharyn Goldstien, for the amazing opportunity and adventure that this project has been. Also, thank you for your patient encouragement, advice and knowledge that has been fundamental in the completion of my thesis. To Dr Chris Glover, for his support and guidance, even through the change of plans and projects. The greatest field assistant, Hannah Charan-Dixon, thank you for helping me through this adventure. With whom I would not have been able to collect my data, battling through wind, rain, waves and sharks. Thank you to the International Waters group, for providing support and technical assistance to get us all through our projects together. To Jan McKenzie and Renny Bishop, who without their help there would have been no field work, and Joshua van Lier for the use of his data. To the Graduate Womans Scholarship and University of Canterbury for funding this research. My sincere thanks to the Tongan Ministry of Fisheries, especially Siola’a Malimali and Ratu Tonga Tuiano, for providing logistical support far beyond what was expected.

And 95- THE CALYPSO DATABASE NUMBERING SYSTEM Although the numbering system in itself, is not primarily designed to carry retrievable information some useful points can be gleaned from it if certain concepts of the system are known to the reader. It must clearly be emphasised however that the material extracted in this way is not to be construed as totally accurate and is only intended as a rough guide. (The full database should always be checked in addition to the information extracted in this fashion). The Ichthyological Database Code is divisible into two sets of three numbers and information may be extracted by examining the first set of three numbers which , for a validated species , will always commence with the numbers 0 or 9. Numbers commencing with 0 represent primarily marine species. Numbers commencing with 9 represent primarily freshwater species. Numbers commencing with any other number are temporary allocations (see below) The second of the three numbers will indicate the approximate geographic area from which the species was recorded onto the database. These numbers will give differing information depending on whether the first number was 0 or 9. If a 0 then this will denote a sea area whereas if a 9 this will denote a continental area.

  • The Conservation, Sustainable Use and Management of Mangrove Habitats in Oman
    The Conservation, Sustainable Use and Management of Mangrove Habitats in Oman Zakiya Musallam Mohammed Al-Afifi PhD University of York Environment and Geography September 2018 Abstract Mangroves are significant contributors to human wellbeing in many tropical and sub- tropical coastal communities and deliver a wide range of provisioning, regulating, cultural and supporting ecosystem services. Worldwide, the value of these services has been researched, but not in Oman. I explore the role of mangrove ecosystems in Oman dominated by Avicennia marina and the value of their services based on perceptions of locals, key utilisers of the ecosystem. I also examine temporal and spatial change in mangrove cover and identify the drivers of environmental change affecting these ecosystems. Perceptions were captured using self-completed questionnaires, aerial extent was estimated from aerial photgraphs and secondary fisheries data were used to evaluate the support of Omani fisheries by mangroves. Carbon sequestration was estimated through a combination of field sampling and reported allometric equations and the service of storm buffering evaluated using data from windroses and mangrove extent. For cultural services assessment, mapping and semi-structured interviews with locals were used. I found that Oman‘s mangroves are mainly threatened by cyclonic events, both intense marine wave action and flash flooding from the landward side, as well as urbanisation, leading to coastal squeeze with implications for sea-level rise. While mangroves do not appear to highly support commercial fisheries in Oman, they do support ecologically important ecosystem engineers and essential prey for higher tropic levels (including commercially important species). Estimated values of carbon stock ranged from 59.90 to 133.05 t/ha, much lower values for A.

Dorsal profile of snout steep, with a break in contour in front of eyes; teeth fused in upper and lower jaws to form dental plates; plates smooth, the individual teeth only visible at margins; upper jaw enclosing lower jaw; up to 3 canine teeth posteriorly on upper dental plates; lips covering less than half of dental plates; 4 median predorsal scales; 2 rows of cheek scales, with 6 or 7 scales in dorsal row and 5 to 7 scales in ventral cow. Pectoral fins with 13 (occasionally 12) branched rays; caudal fin slightly rounded to truncate in subadults, emarginate in adults. Colour: there appears to be only one adult colour phase, but juveniles may prove to de distinctively marked; green, the edges o the scales in middle and posterior part of body narrowly and faintly lavender-pink, the caudal peduncle and scaled basal part of fin lighter green; upper lip, lower lip, and adjacent chin with a broad band of light green edged posteriorly with a narrow band of lavender-pink; a narrow streak of orange at corner of mouth; a narrow circle of lavender-pink around orbit; dorsal fin purplish pink with a blue border and dark submarginal line; anal fin orangish with a streak of green paralleling rays on each interradial membrane, a blue border of dark submarginal line; unscaled part of caudal fin violet with blue upper and lower margins, green posterior margin, and a pink streak in each lobe; pectoral fins green, the leading edge blue, and below this a broad zone of purplish; pelvic fins green with a blue leading edge; dental plates greenish.
