August 16 - August 31, 2002 Shirley Pomponi, Co-Chief Scientist Tammy Frank, Co-Chief Scientist John Reed, Co-Chief Scientist Edie Widder, Co-Chief Scientist Pharmaceutical Discovery Vision and Bioluminescence Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institution Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institution ABSTRACT Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institution (HBOI) scientists continued their cutting-edge exploration searching for untapped sources of new drugs, examining the visual physiology of deep-sea benthos and characterizing the habitat in the South Atlantic Bight aboard the R/V Seaward Johnson from August 16-31, 2002. Over a half-dozen new species of sponges were recorded, which may provide scientists with information leading to the development of compounds used to study, treat, or diagnose human diseases. In addition, wondrous examples of bioluminescence and emission spectra were recorded, providing scientists with more data to help them understand how benthic organisms visualize their environment.

Due to rapid characteristics of the lake water and estimation of rate of use of chemicals and fertilizers in agricultural, discharge of eutrophication along with creation of spatial variations using sewage and domestic activities in and around the lake Geographic Information System technique. decreases the water quality of lake. The study was carried out on the assessment of trophic state of Kelegeri Lake by using 1.1 SCOPE OF PRESENT STUDY GIS technique. A representation of the spatial distribution was developed using inverse distance weighted interpolation The water is the most fundamental element of all living method. The eutrophication level of the lake was determined organisms. Due to reckless use of chemicals in the with the help of Carlson’s scale. Based on trophic state index agricultural fields and in daily activities. Phosphorous and calculations and spatial distribution by Geographic nitrogen is the main chemical responsible for the water information system technique. The lake was found to be in quality degradation. So the study of some of the physico – oligotrophic condition in February and April, mesotrophic chemical parameters of the lake to consider whether this can condition in March. -

Mannaerts (ITC) Advisor: Ms. Wiwin Ambarwulan (ITC) INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTE FOR GEO-INFORMATION SCIENCE AND EARTH OBSERVATION ENSCHEDE, THE NETHERLANDS Disclaimer This document describes work undertaken as part of a programme of study at the International Institute for Geo-information Science and Earth Observation. All views and opinions expressed therein remain the sole responsibility of the author, and do not necessarily represent those of the institute. Abstract Inland waters are human kind assets as they serve for both economical and ecological well being; however, their existence is compromised by raising eutrophication in these water bodies’ especially toxic cyanobacteria species. Existing in-situ water quality measurements have failed to offer required temporal and spatial coverage which cope with the dynamics of water quality. Therefore, the purpose of this thesis was to use remote sensing techniques to monitor and predict eutrophication with the focus on separating cyanobacteria from other Phytoplankton species. Eutrophication in water bodies is associated with growth of Phytoplankton biomass which is easily to be detected by satellite sensors. -
Estimation of the Impact of Trophic Interactions on Biological Production Functions in an Ecosystem
Size dependency in Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems ICES CM 2003/N:11 Estimation of the impact of trophic interactions on biological production functions in an ecosystem. Emmanuel Chassot and Didier Gascuel Abstract A simulation model is developed in order to estimate the impact of trophic interspecific relations on the biological production functions of an ecosystem. Exploitable biomass of a theoretical ecosystem is allocated by trophic class, each class including all the species and organisms of a given range of trophic levels. These species and organisms are given individual growth, recruitment and survival models. Biomass and yields per recruit models based on the usual approach of Beverton and Holt are thus estimated by trophic class for different theoretical levels of fishing mortality. The parameters of the growth and survival models are estimated to define a coherent biological production function for each trophic class. A recruitment term is also introduced for each class in order to get a biomass distribution in the ecosystem similar to different biomass trophic spectra pre-determined. The natural mortality encountered by each trophic class is supposed to include a term of mortality dependent on the predators biomass and a term of residual mortality considered constant. Predation is based on a function of trophic preference between the classes. We show that trophic interactions existing in an ecosystem affect the biological production functions according to the trophic class considered within the food web. Low trophic levels functions are highly variable according to the level of top-down control considered and the shape of the virgin spectrum. High trophic levels functions display low variations because their biomass is generally low and they are poorly subjected to predation. -

Analysis of moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer (MODIS) sea surface temperature (SST) maps acquired between April and September of 2000–2015 allowed for the identification of 69 CU events. The Ekman-based upwelling index (UI) was applied to evaluate the effectiveness of the satellite measurements for upwelling detection. It was found that satellite data enable the identification of 87% of UI-based upwelling events during May–August, hence, serving as an effective tool for CU detection in the Baltic Sea under relatively cloud-free summer conditions. It was also shown that upwelling-induced SST drops, and its spatial properties are larger than previously registered. During extreme upwelling events, an SST drop might reach 14 °C, covering a total area of nearly 16,000 km2. -
