There are only four lidar stations in the world, which have almost continuously performed observations of the stratospheric aerosol layer (SAL) state for over the last 30 years. The longest time series of the SAL lidar measurements have been accumulated at the Mauna Loa Observatory (Hawaii) since 1973, the NASA Langley Research Center (Hampton, Virginia) since 1974, and Garmisch-Partenkirchen (Germany) since 1976. The fourth lidar station we present started to perform routine observations of the SAL parameters in Tomsk (56.48 N, 85.05 E, Western Siberia, Russia) in 1986. In this 15 paper, we mainly focus on and discuss the stratospheric background period from 2000 to 2005 and the causes of the SAL perturbations over Tomsk in the 2006–2015 period. During the last decade, volcanic aerosol plumes from tropical Mt. Manam, Soufriere Hills, Rabaul, Merapi, Nabro, and Kelut, and extratropical (northern) Mt.

  • Quantitative Species-Level Ecology of Reef Fish Larvae Via Metabarcoding
    ARTICLES https://doi.org/10.1038/s41559-017-0413-2 Quantitative species-level ecology of reef fish larvae via metabarcoding Naama Kimmerling1,2, Omer Zuqert3, Gil Amitai3, Tamara Gurevich2, Rachel Armoza-Zvuloni2,8, Irina Kolesnikov2, Igal Berenshtein1,2, Sarah Melamed3, Shlomit Gilad4, Sima Benjamin4, Asaph Rivlin2, Moti Ohavia2, Claire B. Paris 5, Roi Holzman 2,6*, Moshe Kiflawi 2,7* and Rotem Sorek 3* The larval pool of coral reef fish has a crucial role in the dynamics of adult fish populations. However, large-scale species-level monitoring of species-rich larval pools has been technically impractical. Here, we use high-throughput metabarcoding to study larval ecology in the Gulf of Aqaba, a region that is inhabited by >500 reef fish species. We analysed 9,933 larvae from 383 samples that were stratified over sites, depth and time. Metagenomic DNA extracted from pooled larvae was matched to a mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I barcode database compiled for 77% of known fish species within this region. This yielded species-level reconstruction of the larval community, allowing robust estimation of larval spatio-temporal distribu- tions. We found significant correlations between species abundance in the larval pool and in local adult assemblages, suggest- ing a major role for larval supply in determining local adult densities. We documented larval flux of species whose adults were never documented in the region, suggesting environmental filtering as the reason for the absence of these species. Larvae of several deep-sea fishes were found in shallow waters, supporting their dispersal over shallow bathymetries, potentially allow- ing Lessepsian migration into the Mediterranean Sea.

  • Fish Assemblage Structure Comparison Between Freshwater and Estuarine Habitats in the Lower Nakdong River, South Korea

Impacts of estuary weirs on fish assemblages are particularly distinct because the weirs are disturbed in linking between freshwater and estuarine fish communities, and migration successes for regional fish fauna. This study conducted fish sampling at the lower reaches of the Nakdong River to assess spatio-temporal variations in fish assemblages, and effects of estuary weir on structuring fish assemblage between freshwater and estuary habitats. In total, 20,386 specimens comprising 78 species and 41 families were collected. The numerical dominant fish species were Tachysurus nitidus (48.8% in total abundance), Hemibarbus labeo (10.7%) and Chanodichthys erythropterus (3.6%) in the freshwater region, and Engraulis japonicus (10.0%), Nuchequula nuchalis (7.7%) and Clupea pallasii (5.2%) in the estuarine site.

Larimichthys terengganui can be readily distinguished from other species of the genus by having an equally short pair of ventral limbs at the end of the gas bladder appendages, which do not extend lateral-ventrally to the lower half of the body wall, and fewer dorsal soft rays (29–32 vs. 31–36) and vertebrae (24 vs. 25–28). Larimichthys terengganui can be distinguished from L.

Here, we report a ~595 Mb 20 D. undecimradiatus genome, which is the first whole genome sequence in the order 21 Lobotiformes. Based on this genome, the phylogenetic tree analysis suggested that 22 Lobotiformes and Sciaenidae are closer than Tetraodontiformes, resolving a long-time 23 dispute.

  • Photobacterium
    Diversification of Two Lineages of Symbiotic Photobacterium Henryk Urbanczyk1*, Yoshiko Urbanczyk1, Tetsuya Hayashi2,3, Yoshitoshi Ogura2,3 1 Interdisciplinary Research Organization, University of Miyazaki, Miyazaki, Japan, 2 Division of Bioenvironmental Science, Frontier Science Research Center, University of Miyazaki, Miyazaki, Japan, 3 Division of Microbiology, Department of Infectious Diseases, Faculty of Medicine, University of Miyazaki, Miyazaki, Japan Abstract Understanding of processes driving bacterial speciation requires examination of closely related, recently diversified lineages. To gain an insight into diversification of bacteria, we conducted comparative genomic analysis of two lineages of bioluminescent symbionts, Photobacterium leiognathi and ‘P. mandapamensis’. The two lineages are evolutionary and ecologically closely related. Based on the methods used in bacterial taxonomy for classification of new species (DNA-DNA hybridization and ANI), genetic relatedness of the two lineages is at a cut-off point for species delineation. In this study, we obtained the whole genome sequence of a representative P. leiognathi strain lrivu.4.1, and compared it to the whole genome sequence of ‘P. mandapamensis’ svers.1.1. Results of the comparative genomic analysis suggest that P. leiognathi has a more plastic genome and acquired genes horizontally more frequently than ‘P. mandapamensis’. We predict that different rates of recombination and gene acquisition contributed to diversification of the two lineages. Analysis of lineage- specific sequences in 25 strains of P. leiognathi and ‘P. mandapamensis’ found no evidence that bioluminescent symbioses with specific host animals have played a role in diversification of the two lineages.

  • Temporal Stability in the Otolith Sr:Ca Ratio of the Yellow Croaker

Acta Ichthyologica et Piscatoria 51(1): 59–65. https://doi.org/10.3897/aiep.51.63245 Abstract Otolith chemical signatures are sufficiently stable across time to allow for accurate stock classification. The classification of the southern Yellow Sea population for Larimichthys polyactis (Bleeker, 1877) and its connectivity with others from 1962 is contro- versial. The study aimed to study the inter-annual variation in otolith strontium:calcium (Sr:Ca) ratios of L. polyactis to determine whether otolith natural tags are representative over long periods and can then be used for population structure classification. Spawn- ing L. polyactis individuals were captured by stow nets in the same site of the southern Yellow Sea coastal waters during April–May in 2003, 2012, and 2013.
