This document is Volume I. It presents background information on coastal processes, existing management operations, the natural environment, land use and the human environment that is necessary in the formulation of management plans for the open coastline between Pagham and the River Hamble, including Pagham Harbour. The remaining three Volumes of the East Solent Shoreline Management Plan include: the coastal defence objectives, management units, preferred management options, recommended further studies and future review programme for the open coast (Volume II) • the background management information for Chichester, Langstone and Portsmouth Harbours (Volume HI) • the coastal defence objectives, management approach, preferred management options, recommended further studies and future review programme for the harbours, including Pagham Harbour (Volume IV). Chichester District Council, acting on behalf of the East Solent Coastal Group, commissioned HR Wallingford to undertake the Shoreline Management Plan in accordance with the Consultant’s Brief and the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food document “Shoreline Management Plans - A Guide for Coastal Defence Authorities".

    National Character 126. South Coast Plain Area profile: Supporting documents www.naturalengland.org.uk 1 National Character 126. South Coast Plain Area profile: Supporting documents Introduction National Character Areas map As part of Natural England’s responsibilities as set out in the Natural Environment White Paper,1 Biodiversity 20202 and the European Landscape Convention,3 we are revising profiles for England’s 159 National Character Areas North (NCAs). These are areas that share similar landscape characteristics, and which East follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good decision-making framework for the natural environment. Yorkshire & The North Humber NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform West their decision-making about the places that they live in and care for. The information they contain will support the planning of conservation initiatives at a East landscape scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage Midlands broader partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will West also help to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. Midlands East of Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features England that shape our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each London area’s characteristics and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental South East Opportunity (SEOs) are suggested, which draw on this integrated information. South West The SEOs offer guidance on the critical issues, which could help to achieve sustainable growth and a more secure environmental future.

  • Cleaning Symbiosis Among California Inshore Fishes
    CLEANING SYMBIOSIS AMONG CALIFORNIA INSHORE FISHES EDMUNDS. HOBSON' ABSTRACT Cleaning symbiosis among shore fishes was studied during 1968 and 1969 in southern California, with work centered at La Jolla. Three species are habitual cleaners: the seAoriF, Ozyjulis californica; the sharpnose seaperch, Phanerodon atripes; and the kelp perch, Brachyistius frenatus. Because of specific differences in habitat, there is little overlap in the cleaning areas of these three spe- cies. Except for juvenile sharpnose seaperch, cleaning is of secondary significance to these species, even though it may be of major significance to certain individuals. The tendency to clean varies between in- dividuals. Principal prey of most members of these species are free-living organisms picked from a substrate and from midwater-a mode of feeding that favors adaptations suited to cleaning. Because it is exceedingly abundant in a variety of habitats, the seiiorita is the predominant inshore cleaning fish in California. Certain aspects of its cleaning relate to the fact that only a few of the many seiioritas present at a given time will clean, and that this activity is not centered around well-defined cleaning stations, as has been reported for certain cleaning fishes elsewhere. Probably because cleaners are difficult to recognize among the many seiioritas that do not clean, other fishes.generally do not at- tempt to initiate-cleaning; rather, the activity is consistently initiated by the cleaner itself. An infest- ed fish approached by a cleaner generally drifts into an unusual attitude that advertises the temporary existence of the transient cleaning station to other fish in need of service, and these converge on the cleaner.

  • Relative Gut Lengths of Coral Reef Butterflyfishes (Pisces
    Relative gut lengths of coral reef butterflyfishes (Pisces: Chaetodontidae) ML Berumen1, 2 *, MS Pratchett3, BA Goodman4 1.

Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of Colorado, Boulder, CO, 80309 * Corresponding author: Email: [email protected] Phone: +966 544700019 Keywords: Chaetodontidae; corallivory; Papua New Guinea; relative gut length Abstract Variation in gut length of closely related animals is known to generally be a good predictor of dietary habits. We examined gut length in 28 species of butterflyfishes (Chaetodontidae), which encompass a wide range of dietary types (planktivores, omnivores, corallivores). We found general dietary patterns to be a good predictor of relative gut length, although we found high variation among groups and covariance with body size. The longest gut lengths are found in species that exclusively feed on the living tissue of corals, while the shortest gut length is found in a planktivorous species. Although we tried to control for phylogeny, corallivory has arisen multiple times in this family, confounding our analyses. The butterflyfishes, a speciose family with a wide range of dietary habits, may nonetheless provide an ideal system for future work studying gut physiology associated with specialisation and foraging behaviours. Introduction Relative gut lengths of vertebrates have long been studied and compared within and among species (e.g., Al-Hussaini 1949). The most common explanations for relatively longer guts in herbivores focus on the chemical defences of plants (e.g., Levin 1976; Hay and Fenical 1988), the indigestibility of plant fibre (e.g., Stevens 1989; Karasov and Martinez del Rio 2007), or the poor nutritional quality of plants as food.

  • Proposed Langstone Harbour Air Base
    Proposed Langstone Harbour Air Base Photograph of a Short S.23 Empire flying boat that might one day have flown from Langstone Harbour. Havant History Booklet No. 57 To view, comment, and order all booklets visit: www.hhbkt.com £3 2 Proposed Langstone Harbour Air Base For some time past the Air Ministry, in conjunction with Imperial Airways have been seeking a suitable place to establish a base in this country to form the terminus for the long distance Empire and Trans-Atlantic air routes. These long distance routes are to be operated by means of flying boats rather than land planes and a number of large machines are at present being built for Imperial Airways. The Air Ministry required a site having a considerable area of sheltered water, of reasonable depth, free from obstructions to flying and in a situation not subject to fogs in order that the air liners could operate at all seasons of the year. It was also of material advantage if the site were easily accessible by road and rail from London. After considering a number of alternative sites in Ireland, on the Medway, at Southampton and Portsmouth, the Air Ministry and Imperial Airways have decided that Langstone Harbour, which is on the East side of Portsmouth, is suitable and the Portsmouth City Council are proposing to proceed with a comprehensive scheme estimated to cost about £1,200,000 for the development of the harbour as an Empire Air Base. In view of the fact that a large portion of Langstone Harbour is situated within the Urban District of Havant and Waterloo it is necessary for the County Council to consider the possible effect of the proposed scheme on the areas of the County which adjoin the harbour.
