  • Searching for Humpback Whales in a Historical Whaling Hotspot of the Coral Sea, South Pacific

Understanding key factors in their recovery is a crucial step for their conservation world- wide. In Oceania, the Chesterfield-Bellona archipelago was a primary whaling site in the 19th cen- tury, yet has been left almost unaffected by anthropogenic activities since. We present the results of the first multidisciplinary dedicated surveys in the archipelago assessing humpback whale pop- ulations 2 centuries post-whaling. We encountered 57 groups during 24 survey days (2016−2017), among which 35 whales were identified using photographs of natural markings (photo-ID), 38 using genotyping and 22 using both. Humpback whales were sparsely distributed (0.041 whales km−1): most sightings concentrated in shallow inner-reef waters and neighbouring offshore shal- low banks. The recently created marine protected area covers most of the areas of high predicted habitat suitability and high residence time from satellite-tracked whales.

The portion of the Coral Sea within Australian waters is the area of ocean between the seaward edge of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park (GBRMP), the limit of Australia’s Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) to the east, the eastern boundary of the Torres Strait and the line between the Solitary Islands and Elizabeth and Middleton Reefs to the south.

J. Brook* A total of 358 species of molluscs (excluding pelagic species) is recorded here from coastal marine habitats around the northern Kermadec Islands. The fauna is dominated by species that are widely distributed in the tropical western and central Pacific Ocean. The majority of these are restricted to the tropics and subtropics, but some range south to temperate latitudes. Sixty-eight species, comprising 19% of the fauna, are thought to be endemic to the Kermadec Islands. That group includes several species that have an in situ fossil record extending back to the Pleistocene.

Mortimer, email address : [email protected] Abstract : New age and geochemical data are used to investigate the origin of a ∼670 km-long line of eight seamount volcanoes along the western side of the Norfolk Ridge between New Caledonia and New Zealand. Altered lavas and limestones were dredged from three volcanoes during the 2015 Volcanic Evolution of South Pacific Arcs cruise of N/O l’Atalante, so a total of four, including the northernmost and southernmost, have now been directly sampled and analysed. Dating of lava and volcanic breccia clasts by Ar–Ar methods gives north-to-south ages from these sites of 31.3 ± 0.6, 33 ± 5, 21.5 ± 1.0 and 26.3 ± 0.1 Ma.

New age and geochemical information from widely spaced northern Zealandia seafloor samples can be related to three volcanotectonic regimes: (1) age-pro- gressive, hotspot-style, low-K, alkali-basalt-dominated volcanism in the Lord Howe Seamount Chain. The northern end of the chain (c. 28 Ma) is spatially and temporally linked to the 40– 28 Ma South Rennell Trough spreading centre. (2) Subalkaline, intermediate to silicic, medium- K to shoshonitic lavas of >78–42 Ma age within and near to the New Caledonia Basin. These lavas indicate that the basin and the adjacent Fairway Ridge are underlain by continental rather than oceanic crust, and are a record of Late Cretaceous–Eocene intracontinental rifting or, in some cases, speculatively subduction.

  • Cairns: Azooxanthellate Scleractinia of Australia 261
    © Copyright Australian Museum, 2004 Records of the Australian Museum (2004) Vol. 56: 259–329. ISSN 0067-1975 The Azooxanthellate Scleractinia (Coelenterata: Anthozoa) of Australia STEPHEN D. CAIRNS Department of Invertebrate Zoology, National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution, PO Box 37012, Washington, DC 20013-7012, United States of America [email protected] ABSTRACT. A total of 237 species of azooxanthellate Scleractinia are reported for the Australian region, including seamounts off the eastern coast. Two new genera (Lissotrochus and Stolarskicyathus) and 15 new species are described: Crispatotrochus gregarius, Paracyathus darwinensis, Stephanocyathus imperialis, Trochocyathus wellsi, Conocyathus formosus, Dunocyathus wallaceae, Foveolocyathus parkeri, Idiotrochus alatus, Lissotrochus curvatus, Sphenotrochus cuneolus, Placotrochides cylindrica, P. minuta, Stolarskicyathus pocilliformis, Balanophyllia spongiosa, and Notophyllia hecki. Also, one new combination is proposed: Petrophyllia rediviva. Each species account includes an annotated synonymy for all Australian records as well as reference to extralimital accounts of significance, the type locality, and deposition of the type. Tabular keys are provided for the Australian species of Culicia and all species of Conocyathus and Placotrochides. A discussion of previous studies of Australian azooxanthellate corals is given in narrative and tabular form. This study was based on approximately 5500 previously unreported specimens collected from 500 localities, as

  • Tracking the Northward Movement of the Australian Plate
    Tracking the Northward Movement of the Australian Plate Author: Olivia Belshaw This resource was developed as a result of participation in CSIRO’s teacher professional learning program, Educator on Board. © Tracking the Northward Movement of the Australian Plate (created by Olivia Belshaw) (2019). Copyright owned by Department for Education, New South Wales. Except as otherwise noted, this work is licenced under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Licence. To view a copy of this licence, visit http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Tracking the Northward movement of the Australian Plate Overview: Students will interpret data on a graph to obtain the N-S offset distance between underwater seamounts of the Tasmantid and Lord Howe Island sea chains. Students are provided with the N-S offset distances to allow them to measure how fast the plate is moving Northwards, rather than total movement in an east or west direction. Once the data has been obtained students will need to convert their data on a graph and calculate the speed of the Australian plate. Adapted from a similar activity from the Lunar and Planetary Institute: https://www.lpi.usra.edu/education/workshops/plateTectonics/HotSpotMotion.pdf Duration: This activity, including introduction, should take approximately 2 x 60min lessons Introduction: The students must be familiar with the concepts of plate tectonic movement and hot spot activity. Students should also be confident with graphing skills. Students should be shown the introductory videos found at the link below “What are sea mounts?” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Lhi3X7PPYQ “Hot spot Formation” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=asUXBV12Btg Then provide students with the Background Information, prior to beginning the activity on the next page.

  • Annotated Checklist of the Marine Flora and Fauna of the Kermadec Islands Marine Reserve and Northern Kermadec Ridge, New Zealand
    www.aucklandmuseum.com Annotated checklist of the marine flora and fauna of the Kermadec Islands Marine Reserve and northern Kermadec Ridge, New Zealand Clinton A.J. Duffy Department of Conservation & Auckland War Memorial Museum Shane T. Ahyong Australian Museum & University of New South Wales Abstract At least 2086 species from 729 families are reported from the insular shelf and upper slope of the Kermadec Islands Marine Reserve and north Kermadec Ridge. The best known groups are benthic Foraminifera, benthic macroalgae, Cnidaria, Mollusca, Crustacea, Bryozoa, Echinodermata, fishes and sea birds. However knowledge of the region’s biota remains superficial and even amongst these groups new species records are commonplace. Bacteria, most planktonic groups, sessile invertebrates (particularly Porifera and Ascidiacea), infaunal and interstitial invertebrates, and parasites are largely unstudied. INTRODUCTION is a relatively large, shallow area (50–500 m depth) of complex topography located c. 105 km southwest of The Kermadec Islands are located between 636 km L’Esperance Rock in the northern part of the Central (L’Esperance and Havre Rocks) and 800 km (Raoul domain. Volcanism in this and the Southern domain is Island) NNE of New Zealand. They are large, active located west of the ridge (Smith & Price 2006). South volcanoes that rise more than 1000 m above the Kermadec of 33.3° S the ridge crest is largely located below 1000 Ridge (Ewart et al. 1977; Smith & Price 2006). The oldest m depth, eventually dipping below the sediments of the known shallow water marine sedimentary sequences Raukumara Basin at more than 2400 m depth (Smith & reported from the Kermadec Islands date from the early Price 2006).
