Paradoxically, despite a long history of inquiry into spit and barrier formation, understanding of the dynamics and sedimentary history of tombolos over the Holocene timescale is poor. At Tyre and Alexandria we demonstrate that these rare coastal features are the heritage of a long history of natural morphodynamic forcing and human impacts. In 332 BC, following a protracted seven-month siege of the city, Alexander the Great's engineers cleverly exploited a shallow sublittoral sand bank to seize the island fortress; Tyre's causeway served as a prototype for Alexandria's Heptastadium built a few months later. We report stratigraphic and geomorphological data from the two sand spits, proposing a chronostratigraphic model of tombolo evolution. © 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

The Malay Archipelago is the vast chain of islands stretching eastward from Sumatra for more than 6,000 kilometres. Most of it now falls within the sovereignties of Malaysia and Indonesia. In Wallace’s time, it was a world apart, a great Milky Way of land masses and seas and straits, little explored by Europeans, sparsely populated by peoples of diverse cul- tures, and harbouring countless species of unknown plant and animal in dense tropical forests.

This study aimed to investigate the relative effects of variation in recruitment and survival rates on the density dynamics of 3 spatially separated natural populations of the barnacle Semibalanus balanoides (Isle of Man, SW Ireland and west Sweden). We analysed 2 different data-based stochastic matrix models of open populations with space-limited recruitment. Assumption testing supported the application of matrix-model theory for studying and comparing population variables of open populations. Recruit- ment was found to be partly dependent on free space, and mortality was size-specific and indepen- dent of other vital rates. Model simulations showed that the relative importance of recruitment and survival in shaping adult density depends on the existing variation of these vital rates at each loca- tion. -

Sarah Cohen, Ph.D. Professor Lorraine Ling, Ph.D. Postdoc Researcher at Stanford University EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF TIDAL AND FRESHWATER INFLUENCE ON SYMBIODINIUMMUSCAT1NEI ABUNDANCE IN ITS HOST, ANTHOPLEURA ELEGANTISSIMA Daniel John Hossfeld San Francisco, California 2019 Controlled experiments testing effects of temperature, salinity, and aerial exposure were paired with field observations to investigate symbiont expulsion in the abundant intertidal anemone, Anthopleura elegantissima. In the study region, A. elegantissima hosts a single symbiont, the dinoflagellate Symbiodinium muscatinei. The San Francisco Bay outflow creates a tidally influenced low-salinity plume that impacts adjacent coastal sites. Salinity, temperature, and aerial stress induce a bleaching response similar to corals where symbionts are expelled, causing further energetic stress. Using field observations of environmental conditions and symbiont abundance at sites on a gradient of exposure to estuarine outflow, along with fully crossed multifactorial lab experiments, we tested for changes in symbiont abundance in response to various combinations of three stressors. -

A LIST OP THE FISHES KNOWN FROM THE PACIFIC COAST OF TROPICAL AMERICA, FROM TPIE TROPIC OF CANCER TO PANAMA. By DAVID S. JORDAIV. Four hundred and seven species of fishes are now known to inhabit the waters of the Pacific coast of tropical America betM^eeu Cape San Lucas and Panama. Our knowledge of these species is due chiefly to the studies of Dr. Gill, Dr. Glinther, Dr. Steiudaehuer, and Professors Jordan and Gilbert. Only a few collectors have given especial atten- tion to the fish fauna of this regiou, but the work of these has in nearly all cases been of exceptional value. -
