Keister Terrie Klinger Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Oceanography University of Washington Abstract Species interactions in a changing ocean: A study of inducible traits to understand community responses Sasha Katya Seroy Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Emeritus Daniel Grünbaum Oceanography Marine communities are experiencing rapid environmental changes including warming temperatures and ocean acidification (OA). For organisms within these communities, responses to ocean change are shaped by population- and community-level interactions which may modify their responses. This dissertation integrates experimental, field, and modeling approaches to understand how marine communities are responding to ocean change by studying species interactions and understanding propagating effects. Organisms with inducible morphologies, physical characteristics that can change based on exposure to specific predators (inducible defenses) or food sources (inducible offenses), can be a tool to track and quantify interactions in a changing ocean. In this dissertation, I present research on two marine invertebrates that exhibit inducible morphologies to demonstrate how studies of inducible traits provide a tool to understand community responses to ocean change. In Chapters 2 and 3, I explored the individual- and population-level effects of OA on inducible defenses in the calcifying bryozoan, Membranipora membranacea. Predator exposure continued to induce defenses and modify M. membranacea colony growth in OA conditions. Population-level space competition also modulated costs of inducible defenses in OA conditions. In Chapters 4 and 5, I investigated the effects of an inducible offense on responses to warming temperatures in the marine snail, Lacuna vincta. Field surveys of inducible morphology documented frequent adult dispersal between eelgrass and macroalgal habitats, and experiments revealed that consequences of dispersal influenced L. vincta response to warming temperatures. Overall, M. membranacea and L. vincta were largely robust to the stressors they were exposed to and species interactions, documented using inducible traits, greatly influenced responses to ocean change in both organisms. In Chapter 6, I developed and evaluated a K-12 sensor-building module inspired by methods used in my own scientific research to create authentic STEM experiences for high school students. Using hands-on sensor building and local environmental change helped contextualize basic chemistry concepts and increased student learning. This dissertation provides insight into how integrated studies of inducible traits can help shed light on community responses to environmental change and provides ways to integrate ocean change research and educational initiatives through placed-based sensor building programs.

    BRYOZOAN STUDIES 2019 Edited by Patrick Wyse Jackson & Kamil Zágoršek Czech Geological Survey 1 BRYOZOAN STUDIES 2019 2 Dedication This volume is dedicated with deep gratitude to Paul Taylor. Throughout his career Paul has worked at the Natural History Museum, London which he joined soon after completing post-doctoral studies in Swansea which in turn followed his completion of a PhD in Durham. Paul’s research interests are polymatic within the sphere of bryozoology – he has studied fossil bryozoans from all of the geological periods, and modern bryozoans from all oceanic basins. His interests include taxonomy, biodiversity, skeletal structure, ecology, evolution, history to name a few subject areas; in fact there are probably none in bryozoology that have not been the subject of his many publications. His office in the Natural History Museum quickly became a magnet for visiting bryozoological colleagues whom he always welcomed: he has always been highly encouraging of the research efforts of others, quick to collaborate, and generous with advice and information. A long-standing member of the International Bryozoology Association, Paul presided over the conference held in Boone in 2007. 3 BRYOZOAN STUDIES 2019 Contents Kamil Zágoršek and Patrick N.

Det har länge varit svårt att utnyttja och undersöka något på havets bottnar. När resurser och utrustning under de senaste årtiondena blivit bättre har vi sett att här finns mycket att finna. Man har exempelvis hittat havslevande djur som kan skydda sig från parasiter utan att ha ett immunförsvar. De har tagit hjälp av bakterier som tillverkar olika giftiga ämnen som sprids i djurets omgivningar eller stannar på dess yta, vilket ger ett skydd från vissa rovdjur.

    A BLIND ABYSSAL CORAMBIDAE (MOLLUSCA, NUDIBRANCHIA) FROM THE NORWEGIAN SEA, WITH A REEVALUATION OF THE SYSTEMATICS OF THE FAMILY ÁNGEL VALDÉS & PHILIPPE BOUCHET VALDÉS, ÁNGEL & PHILIPPE BOUCHET 1998 03 13. A blind abyssal Corambidae (Mollusca, Nudibranchia) SARSIA from the Norwegian Sea, with a reevaluation of the systematics of the family. – Sarsia 83:15-20. Bergen. ISSN 0036-4827. Echinocorambe brattegardi gen. et sp. nov. is described based on five eyeless specimens collected between 2538 and 3016 m depth in the Norwegian Sea. This new monotypic genus differs from other confamilial taxa in having the dorsum covered with long papillae and a radula formula n.3.1.3.n. The posterior notch in the notum and gill morphology, which have traditionally been used as generic characters in the family Corambidae, are considered to have little or no taxonomical value above species level. Instead of the currently described 11 nominal genera, we recognize as valid only Corambe and Loy, to which is now added Echinocorambe. Loy differs from Corambe in the asym- metrical lobes of the posterior notal notch and the presence of spicules in the notum. All other nominal genera are objective or subjective synonyms of these two.

M. Walls1,*, M. D. Edwards1, L. B. Firth2, M. P. Johnson1 1Irish Seaweed Research Group, Ryan Institute, National University of Ireland, Galway, Ireland 2School of Geography, Earth & Environmental Science, Plymouth University, Drake Circus, Plymouth PL4 8AA, UK ABSTRACT: There has been an increase in commercial-scale kelp cultivation in Europe, with fouling of cultivated kelp fronds presenting a major challenge to the growth and development of the industry. The presence of epibionts decreases productivity and impacts the commercial value of the crop. Several abiotic and biotic factors may influence the occurrence and degree of fouling of wild and cultivated fronds. Using a commercial kelp farm on the SW coast of Ireland, we studied the development of fouling communities on cultivated Alaria esculenta fronds over 2 typical grow- ing seasons. The predictability of community development was assessed by comparing mean occurrence-day. Hypotheses that depth, kelp biomass, position within the farm and the hydrody- namic environment affect the fouling communities were tested using species richness and com- munity composition. Artificial kelp mimics were used to test whether local frond density could affect the fouling communities. Species richness increased over time during both years, and spe- cies composition was consistent over years with early successional communities converging into later communities (no significant differences between June 2014 and June 2015 communities, ANOSIM; R = −0.184, p > 0.05).

  • Individual Autozooidal Behaviour and Feeding in Marine Bryozoans
    Individual autozooidal behaviour and feeding in marine bryozoans Natalia Nickolaevna Shunatova, Andrew Nickolaevitch Ostrovsky Shunatova NN, Ostrovsky AN. 2001. Individual autozooidal behaviour and feeding in marine SARSIA bryozoans. Sarsia 86:113-142. The article is devoted to individual behaviour of autozooids (mainly connected with feeding and cleaning) in 40 species and subspecies of marine bryozoans from the White Sea and the Barents Sea. We present comparative descriptions of the observations and for the first time describe some of autozooidal activities (e.g. cleaning of the colony surface by a reversal of tentacular ciliature beating, variants of testing-position, and particle capture and rejection). Non-contradictory aspects from the main hypotheses on bryozoan feeding have been used to create a model of feeding mechanism. Flick- ing activity in the absence of previous mechanical contact between tentacle and particle leads to the inference that polypides in some species can detect particles at some distance. The discussion deals with both normal and “spontaneous” reactions, as well as differences and similarities in autozooidal behaviour and their probable causes. Approaches to classification of the diversity of bryozoan behav- iour (functional and morphological) are considered. Behavioural reactions recorded are classified using a morphological approach based on the structure (tentacular ciliature, tentacles and entire polypide) performing the reaction. We suggest that polypide protrusion and retraction might be the basis of the origin of some other individual activities. Individual autozooidal behaviour is considered to be a flexible and sensitive system of reactions in which the activities can be performed in different combinations and successions and can be switched depending on the situation.

Seroy1,2,*, Daniel Grünbaum1,2 1School of Oceanography, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington 98105, USA 2Friday Harbor Laboratories, University of Washington, Friday Harbor, Washington 98250, USA ABSTRACT: Ocean acidification (OA) from increased oceanic CO2 concentrations imposes significant phys- iological stresses on many calcifying organisms. OA effects on individual organisms may be synergistically amplified or reduced by inter- and intraspecies inter- actions as they propagate up to population and com- munity levels, altering predictions by studies of cal - cifier responses in isolation. The calcifying colonial bryo zoan Membranipora membranacea and the pre- datory nudibranch Corambe steinbergae comprise a trophic system strongly regulated by predator- induced defensive responses and space limitation, presenting a unique system to investigate OA effects on these regulatory mechanisms at individual and population levels. We experimentally quantified OA effects across a range of pH from 7.0 to 7.9 on growth, Predatory nudibranchs Corambe steinbergae (gelatinous, at the bottom) preying on zooids of the colonial bryo zoan Mem- calcification, senescence and predator-induced spine branipora membranacea.
