This includes the direction of species radiation throughout the oceans. Range expansions occur as a result of evolutionary adaptations, or through environmentally or anthropogenically driven shifts in distribution. The success of such events is centred around a species ability to adapt; in order for a migration to be successful, all life history stages must tolerate the conditions of the new habitat. This thesis examines the thermal and hyperbaric thresholds affecting range extension in the marine environment. It focuses on the larval development of the shallow-water North Atlantic gastropod Buccinum undatum (Linnaeus 1758). The Buccinidae family consists of a wide range of shallow and deep- water species distributed globally. Improved knowledge on this topic will contribute to our understanding of the adaptations influencing both historical and modern shifts in the distribution of species. The thermal and hyperbaric ranges observed during development indicate B. undatum to have the capacity to develop at both temperatures and pressures outside its current distribution. Thermal acclimation to low temperature was also found to increase pressure tolerance during development. A shift in number of embryos developing and nurse egg partitioning per embryo indicate a decrease in developmental success at temperatures above those it is naturally exposed to. An increase in energetic expenditure, with both increasing temperature and pressure, relates to a rise in the metabolic cost associated with development under either condition. These results, combined with the known life history of B. undatum, suggest range expansion into deep water may be a plausible scenario, but tolerance of warmer conditions remains questionable due to the cold-induced spawning observed in this species. The results of this thesis support theories of high-latitude migrations into the deep sea via cold, isothermal waters, and indeed, suggest polar temperatures may promote the rate at which such range expansions occur. Additionally, the observed metabolic cost associated with development suggests hydrostatic pressure may induce bathymetric limits, which explain patterns observed in reproductive trends, eco-physiological adaptations, and faunal distribution in marine invertebrates throughout the oceans.

Des spécimens vivants sont également représentés. ABSTRACT Buccinum cyaneum from different North-East Atlantic localities are illustrated. Live specimens are also presented. INTRODUCTION Buccinum cyaneum Bruguière, 1792 est un petit représentant de la famille des Buccinidae qui ne dépasse généralement pas une hauteur de 5 à 6 cm. La coquille se caractérise par une absence de plis verticaux, du moins dans la grande majorité des cas. Elle porte des côtes spirales espacées, principalement sur le dernier tour. Son opercule est pointu avec un nucleus décentré (Macpherson 1971). Buccinum cyaneum dépose des capsules ovigères à la surface lisse en amas semi-circulaires de 41 à 48 mm de diamètre (Thorson 1935). Dans celles-ci de petites coquilles s’y développent (Delongueville & Scaillet 2001). Il existe de nombreuses variétés qui ont donné lieu à la multiplication des synonymes, le plus connu est Buccinum groenlandicum Chemnitz, 1788. Certaines variétés sont illustrées dans Fraussen & Poppe (1994). Buccinum cyaneum vit à la limite des zones boréale et arctique. Sa distribution est assez vaste. On le trouve en Amérique du Nord de la Nouvelle Ecosse (Whiteaves 1901) jusqu’à l’ile d’Ellesmere, à l’ouest et au sud-est du Groenland, en Islande (Macpherson 1971), aux iles Féroé (Sneli et al.

Signed: Date: 12/09/2014 i Determination of the Abundance and Population Structure of Buccinum undatum in North Wales Zara Turtle Abstract A mark-recapture study and fisheries data analysis for the common whelk, Buccinum undatum, was undertaken for catches on a commercial fishing vessel operating from The fishing location, north Wales, from June-July 2014. Laboratory experiments were conducted on B.undatum to investigate tag retention rates and behavioural responses after being exposed to a number of treatments. Thick rubber bands were found to have a 100 % tag retention rate after four months. Riddling, tagging and air exposure do not affect the behavioural responses of B.undatum. The mark-recapture study was used to estimate population size and movement. 4007 whelks were tagged with thick rubber bands over three tagging events.

  • Otago Submarine Canyons: Mapping and Macrobenthos
    Otago Submarine Canyons: Mapping and Macrobenthos Bryce A. Peebles A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment for the degree of Master of Science at the University of Otago December 2013 ii Abstract Submarine canyons are steep-sided “V’ or “U” shaped valleys that incise continental slopes worldwide. The geophysical and oceanographic features of submarine canyons can produce environmental conditions that cause benthic assemblages to be distinctive and productive compared to those of the adjacent slope; however the assemblages are potentially vulnerable to anthropogenic impacts, including bottom fishing. In order to help inform policy and management, submarine canyons need to be objectively defined topographically and their benthic assemblages characterised. A canyon network occurs off the Otago Peninsula, south-eastern New Zealand, but lack of detailed bathymetric data and adequate benthic sampling has limited study of the canyons. This thesis outlines a method of defining submarine canyon areas and examines epifaunal and infaunal assemblages of the Otago canyons and adjacent slope. Objective definition of the Otago canyon network in the GIS software GRASS along with the steps to use this methodology worldwide are described. Archival count data from 1966-74 on the epifauna are analysed using the PRIMER suite of programs to characterise epifaunal assemblages. Anomurans, polychaetes, asteroids and ascidians make up 70% of the epifaunal canyon assemblage. The epifaunal assemblage is clearly defined by water depth and recognisable from 380 m. Quantitative sampling of infauna in Saunders canyon, Papanui canyon and adjacent slope was carried out to examine infaunal community structure of the canyons and adjacent slope. Infaunal canyon assemblages are dominated by polychaetes, amphipods, ophiuroids, decapods and isopods in canyons, accounting for 75% of collected individuals.
