  • Evidence from Fossil Crustaceans in Cold-Water C
    Klompmaker et al. BMC Evolutionary Biology (2016) 16:132 DOI 10.1186/s12862-016-0694-0 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Evolution of body size, vision, and biodiversity of coral-associated organisms: evidence from fossil crustaceans in cold- water coral and tropical coral ecosystems Adiël A. Klompmaker1,2,3*, Sten L. Jakobsen4 and Bodil W. Lauridsen5 Abstract Background: Modern cold-water coral and tropical coral environments harbor a highly diverse and ecologically important macrofauna of crustaceans that face elevated extinction risks due to reef decline. The effect of environmental conditions acting on decapod crustaceans comparing these two habitats is poorly understood today and in deep time. Here, we compare the biodiversity, eye socket height as a proxy for eye size, and body size of decapods in fossil cold-water and tropical reefs that formed prior to human disturbance. Results: We show that decapod biodiversity is higher in fossiltropicalreefsfromTheNetherlands,Italy,and Spain compared to that of the exceptionally well-preserved Paleocene (Danian) cold-water reef/mound ecosystem from Faxe (Denmark), where decapod diversity is highest in a more heterogeneous, mixed bryozoan-coral habitat instead of in coral and bryozoan-dominated facies. The relatively low diversity at Faxe was not influenced substantially by the preceding Cretaceous/Paleogene extinction event that is not apparent in the standing diversity of decapods in our analyses, or by sampling, preservation, and/or a latitudinal diversity gradient. Instead, the lower availability of food and fewer hiding places for decapods may explain this low diversity. Furthermore, decapods from Faxe are larger than those from tropical waters for half of the comparisons, which may be caused by a lower number of predators, the delayed maturity, and the increased life span of crustaceans in deeper, colder waters.

Ecosphere 10(5):e02734. 10.1002/ecs2.2734 Abstract. Ecosystem engineers transform habitats in ways that facilitate a diversity of species; however, few investigations have isolated short-term effects of engineers from the longer-term legacy effects of their engineered structures. We investigated how initial presence of net-spinning caddisflies (Hydropsychidae) and their structures that provide and modify habitat differentially influence benthic community coloniza- tion in a headwater stream by conducting an in situ experiment that included three treatments: (1) initial engineering organism with its habitat modification structure occupied (hereafter caddisfly); (2) initial habi- tat modification structure alone (hereafter silk); and (3) a control with the initial absence of both engineer and habitat modification structure (hereafter control). Total invertebrate colonization density and biomass was higher in caddisfly and silk treatments compared to controls (~25% and 35%, respectively). However, finer-scale patterns of taxonomy revealed that density for one of the taxa, Chironomidae, was ~19% higher in caddisfly compared to silk treatments.

  • For the Arctic Ocean: a Proposed Coordinated Modelling Experiment
    ‘Climate Response Functions’ for the Arctic Ocean: a proposed coordinated modelling experiment John Marshall1, Jeffery Scott1, and Andrey Proshutinsky2 1Department of Earth, Atmospheric and Planetary Sciences, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 77 Massachusetts Avenue, Cambridge, MA 02139-4307 USA 2Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 266 Woods Hole Road, Woods Hole, MA 02543-1050 USA Correspondence to: John Marshall ([email protected]) Abstract. A coordinated set of Arctic modelling experiments is proposed which explore how the Arctic responds to changes in external forcing. Our goal is to compute and compare ‘Climate Response Functions’ (CRFs) — the transient response of key observable indicators such as sea-ice extent, freshwater content of the Beaufort Gyre, etc. — to abrupt ‘step’ changes in forcing fields across a number of Arctic models. Changes in wind, freshwater sources and inflows to the Arctic basin are considered. 5 Convolutions of known or postulated time-series of these forcing fields with their respective CRFs then yields the (linear) response of these observables. This allows the project to inform, and interface directly with, Arctic observations and observers and the climate change community. Here we outline the rationale behind such experiments and illustrate our approach in the context of a coarse-resolution model of the Arctic based on the MITgcm. We conclude summarising the expected benefits of such an activity and encourage other modelling groups to compute CRFs with their own models so that we might begin to 10 document their robustness to model formulation, resolution and parameterization. 1 Introduction Much progress has been made in understanding the role of the ocean in climate change by computing and thinking about ‘Climate Response Functions’ (CRFs), that is perturbations to the climate induced by step changes in, for example, greenhouse gases, fresh water fluxes, or ozone concentrations (see, e.g.

  • Optimal Control of an Invasive Ecosystem Engineer by David Kling (Presenter), University of California, Davis James Sanchirico
    Optimal Control of an Invasive Ecosystem Engineer By David Kling (presenter), University of California, Davis James Sanchirico, University of California, Davis Alan Hastings, University of California, Davis Managing natural systems in the face of global anthropogenic change poses an enormous challenge. Human-mediated changes can greatly complicate resource management by rendering ecosystems unable to return to their natural condition (hysteresis) or by shifting the ecosystem to an entirely new and possibly less beneficial state (regime shift) (Beisner et al. 2003; Scheffer and Carpenter 2003). One common and pervasive example of a complex management problem is the control of invasive introduced species. It is now well-known that nonnative species can have strong negative impacts on ecosystem function and services and on native biodiversity (Chapin et al. 2000; Olson 2006). Researchers have devoted considerable effort towards understanding the economics of invasion control. Previous theoretical work has identified circumstances where the eradication of an invader is optimal (Olson and Roy 2008). Recent work has also investigated the spatial-dynamics of control and characterized how landscape features can drive optimal policies (Epanchin-Niell and Wilen 2009). A key finding from this research is that early intervention, when the population of the invader is small, is a pivotal determinant of the cost- effectiveness of eradication. Despite this progress, a persistent gap in theoretical work by economists on invasions has been left by a reliance on simple models of invader population dynamics that ignore a number of ecological processes that can accompany invasions and that may call for substantially different control strategies. Ecosystem engineers are organisms that have significant impacts on ecosystems through changing key physical characteristics of the system (Cuddington et al.

    BERKENBUSCH, ROWDEN: BURROWING SHRIMP AS ECOSYSTEM ENGINEERS 67 FORUM ARTICLE Ecosystem engineering — moving away from ‘just-so’ stories K. Berkenbusch1,2,* and A.A. Rowden2 1Department of Marine Science, University of Otago, P.O. Box 56, Dunedin, New Zealand 2National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research, P.O. Box 14-901, Wellington, New Zealand *Address for correspondence: Environmental Protection Agency, 2111 SE Marine Science Drive, Newport, Oregon 97365, U.S.A. (E-mail: [email protected]) __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Abstract: The concept of ecosystem engineering has been proposed recently to account for key processes between organisms and their environment which are not directly trophic or competitive, and which result in the modification, maintenance and/or creation of habitats. Since the initial reporting of the idea, little work has been undertaken to apply the proposed concept to potential ecosystem engineers in the marine environment. Biological and ecological data for the burrowing ghost shrimp Callianassa filholi (Decapoda: Thalassinidea) allowed for a formal assessment of this species as an ecosystem engineer, in direct accordance with published criteria. Despite a low population density and the short durability of its burrow structures, Callianassa filholi affected a number of resource flows by its large lifetime per capita activity. Ecosystem effects were evident in significant changes in macrofauna community composition over small spatial and temporal scales. Seasonal variation in the effects of ghost shrimp activity were associated with changes in seagrass (Zostera novazelandica) biomass, which revealed the probability of interactions between antagonistic ecosystem engineers. The formal assessment of Callianassa filholi provides the opportunity to aid discussion pertaining to the development of the ecosystem engineering concept.

  • Freshwater Outflow from Beaufort Sea Could Alter Global Climate Patterns
    Freshwater outflow from Beaufort Sea could alter global climate patterns February 24, 2021 LOS ALAMOS, N.M., Feb. 23, 2021—The Beaufort Sea, the Arctic Ocean’s largest freshwater reservoir, has increased its freshwater content by 40 percent over the last two decades, putting global climate patterns at risk. A rapid release of this freshwater into the Atlantic Ocean could wreak havoc on the delicate climate balance that dictates global climate. “A freshwater release of this size into the subpolar North Atlantic could impact a critical circulation pattern, called the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, which has a significant influence on northern-hemisphere climate,” said Wilbert Weijer, a Los Alamos National Laboratory author on the project. A joint modeling study by Los Alamos researchers and collaborators from the University of Washington and NOAA dove into the mechanics surrounding this scenario. The team initially studied a previous release event that occurred between 1983 and 1995, and using virtual dye tracers and numerical modeling, the researchers simulated the ocean circulation and followed the spread of the freshwater release. “People have already spent a lot of time studying why the Beaufort Sea freshwater has gotten so high in the past few decades,” said lead author Jiaxu Zhang, who began the work during her post-doctoral fellowship at Los Alamos National Laboratory in the Center for Nonlinear Studies. She is now at UW’s Cooperative Institute for Climate, Ocean and Ecosystem Studies. “But they rarely care where the freshwater goes, and we think that’s a much more important problem.” The study was the most detailed and sophisticated of its kind, lending numerical insights into the decrease of salinity in specific ocean areas as well as the routes of freshwater release.

In this 4 study, we used experiments and observations to examine the effects of the bunch galling midge, 5 Rhopalomyia solidaginis, on arthropod species associated with Solidago altissima.
