The Seaweed Flora of a Young Semi-Enclosed Sea: the Baltic
HELGOL.~NDER MEERESUNTERSUCHUNGEN Helgol&nder Meeresunters. 42, 243-250 (1988) The seaweed flora of a young semi-enclosed sea: The Baltic. Salinity as a possible agent of flora divergence* G. Russell Department of Botany, The University/Liverpool L69 3BX, England ABSTRACT: The salinity tolerances of Baltic and Atlantic populations of Fucus vesiculosus and Chorda filum have been measured using net photosynthesis as an index of tissue damage. Atlantic Fucus proved to have a broader salinity tolerance than Atlantic Chorda, a result which is consistent with others published on the tolerances of intertidal and sublittoral marine species. The optimum salinity for all Atlantic plants was 11 or 34%0, but that of all Baltic plants was 6%o. Baltic Fucus and Chorda were different in breadth of tolerance, in spite of the fact that they inhabit the same sublittoral habitat. This difference is interpreted in relation to their respective life-forms, Fucus being perennial and Chorda annual. Fucus is therefore present as a macrothallus at all times of year, including the critical low-salinity period of the spring ice-melt. Chorda evades damage by existing as a resistent microthallus at this time. It is concluded that the distinctive character of Baltic marine algae deserves nomenclatural recognition at some level below that of the species. The rank of subspecies would appear the most appropriate of those hsted in the Code, but none of those available is able adequately to express the patterns of variation now being reported. INTRODUCTION The Baltic Sea, like the Mediterranean, has a very narrow exit to the Atlantic Ocean, and the fact that the flow of its seawater is almost always in an outward direction, serves only to increase its isolation. -

Nature Conservation 34: 217–246. https://doi.org/10.3897/ natureconservation.34.30055 Abstract The availability of quantitative long term datasets on the phytobenthic assemblages of the Mar Piccolo of Taranto (southern Italy, Mediterranean Sea), a lagoon like semi-enclosed coastal basin included in the Italian LTER network, enabled careful analysis of changes occurring in the structure of the community over about thirty years. The total number of taxa differed over the years. Thirteen non-indigenous species in total were found, their number varied over the years, reaching its highest value in 2017. The dominant taxa differed over the years. -

Box 29, Seoul 425-600, Korea Abstract : Concentrations of Al, As, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb, Zn were determined in four arctic brown algae (Laminaria saccharina, L. digitata, Alaria esculenta, Desmarestia aculeata) in an attempt to examine for their metal accumulation capacity and also to assess their contamination levels. Macroalgae were collected from shallow subtidal waters (<20 m) of Kongsfjorden (Kings Bay) on Spitsbergen during the period of the late July to early August 2003. Metal concentrations highly varied between sampling sites, species and tissue parts. Input of melt-water laden with terrigenous sediment particles seemed to have a large influence on baseline accumulations of some metals (Al, Fe, Mn, Pb etc.) in the macroalgae, causing a significant spatial variation. There were also significant concentration differences between the young and old tissue parts in L. saccharina, L. digitata and A. esculenta. While Al, Fe, Mn, Pb were higher in the perennial parts below meristematic region (excluding holdfast), Cd and As concentrations were significantly higher in the young blades above the meristematic region. Zn and Cr, on the other hand, showed little differences between the tissue parts. The highest metal concentrations were found in D. -
