  • Towards the Science-Based Jellyfish Observing System (JOS)
    Title: Towards the science-based jellyfish observing system Acronym: JOS Summary/Abstract The environmental consequences of jellyfish blooms and their impact on some ecosystem services in several marine areas is recognized as a hot topic in several research programs, but much of historical information on jellyfish is anecdotal and obtained using methodology that was not adapted to study this group of marine organisms. Moreover, even currently there is a lack of standardized methodology to assess quantitative field data of both polyp and medusa abundance. The lack of standardized approaches and methodologies was also recognised as important issues during recent International Workshop ‘Coming to grips with the jellyfish phenomenon in the Southern European and other seas’. Further, during discussions it was also stressed that jellyfish need to be monitored on a regular basis and make observations mandatory. This proposed SCOR Working Group is established with the aim of standardizing and increasing rigour in jellyfish methodology. It will build on interdisciplinary competences of Working Group members what will facilitate the design and development of the proper jellyfish observing system that will encompass modelling and new and emerging technologies. This work will be achieved over a 4 year time period, with a team composed of senior, mid and early career researchers, from both developed and developing countries, what will facilitate capacity building activities. The whole group will focus in particular on field methodology and the establishment of a robust system of observation and forecasting network, towards a reference guide for best practice. 1 Scientific Background and Rationale Research into gelatinous organisms has a long tradition and the period at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th century is seen as the first golden age of ‘gelata’ (Haddock 2004), when famous naturalists that studied in particular morphological taxonomy, were fascinated by their beauty and fragility.

  • Five New Subspecies of Mastigias (Scyphozoa: Rhizostomeae: Mastigiidae) from Marine Lakes, Palau, Micronesia
    J. Mar. Biol. Ass. U.K. (2005), 85, 679–694 Printed in the United Kingdom Five new subspecies of Mastigias (Scyphozoa: Rhizostomeae: Mastigiidae) from marine lakes, Palau, Micronesia Michael N Dawson Coral Reef Research Foundation, Koror, Palau. Present address: Section of Evolution and Ecology, Division of Biological Sciences, Storer Hall, University of California at Davis, One Shields Avenue, Davis, CA 95616, USA. E-mail: [email protected] Published behavioural, DNA sequence, and morphologic data on six populations of Mastigias, five from marine lakes and one from the lagoon, in Palau are summarized. Each marine lake popula- tion is distinguished from the lagoon population and from other lake populations by an unique suite of characteristics. Morphological differences among Mastigias populations in Palau are greater than those recorded between any previously described species of Mastigias, whereas molecular differences are far less (≤2.2% in COI and ITS1) than those found between medusae identified in the field as Mastigias papua (>6% in COI and ITS1). Thus, each marine lake population in Palau is described as a new subspecies of Mastigias cf. papua: remengesaui (in Uet era Ongael), nakamurai (in Goby Lake), etpisoni (in Ongeim’l Tketau), saliii (in Clear Lake), and remeliiki (in Uet era Ngermeuangel).

  • Climate Effects on Formation of Jellyfish and Ctenophore Blooms: a Review
    J. Mar. Biol. Ass. U.K. (2005), 85, 461–476 Printed in the United Kingdom REVIEW Climate effects on formation of jellyfish and ctenophore blooms: a review Jennifer E. Purcell Western Washington University, Shannon Point Marine Center, 1900 Shannon Point Rd, Anacortes, WA 98221, USA. E-mail: [email protected] Much speculation and some evidence suggest that jellyfish and ctenophore populations have increased in recent decades. Unfortunately, few past records exist with which to compare current pop- ulations, and our knowledge of how environmental factors affect jellyfish population size is meagre. Human enterprise has wrought many changes in the ocean that are hypothesized to favour jellyfish, including eutrophication, reduction of fish stocks, and global warming. In addition to anthropogenic changes, natural climate cycles may affect jellyfish populations. Records of jellyfish and ctenophore abundance that appear to be related to indices of climate variations (temperature, salinity, North Atlantic Oscillation, North Pacific Decadal Oscillation, El Niño Southern Oscillation) are reviewed. In eleven species studied from subtropical, temperate and subarctic environments, warm tempera- tures were related to large population sizes; three scyphozoan species in the North Sea, and one mesopelagic hydromedusan were exceptions to that trend. One tropical scyphomedusan species was decimated by unusually warm, salty El Niño conditions in Palau. Because climate changes have com- plex ecosystem-level effects, the proximate causes of jellyfish increases are difficult to deduce. Therefore, the effects of temperature, salinity and prey on asexual production of new medusae from the benthic polyps of scyphomedusae and hydromedusae also are reviewed. Experiments on temper- ate species show greater and more rapid production of medusae at warmer temperatures.

  • Genetic Diversity and Evolution of Marine Animals Isolated in Marine Lakes
    7 Genetic Diversity and Evolution of Marine Animals Isolated in Marine Lakes Naoto Hanzawa1, Ryo O. Gotoh1, Hidekatsu Sekimoto1, Tadasuke V. Goto1, Satoru N. Chiba2, Kaoru Kuriiwa3 and Hidetoshi B. Tamate1 1Department of Biology, Faculty of Science, Yamagata University, Yamagata 2Center for Molecular Biodiversity Research National Museum of Nature and Science, Tokyo 3Department of Zoology, National Museum of Nature and Science, Tokyo Japan 1. Introduction How do marine organisms genetically differentiate and speciate in illimitable oceans? It is considerably difficult to obtain clear answers to this question due to the following reasons. Marine organisms that reproduce by releasing numerous eggs and larvae are able to disperse over large distances and can therefore be distributed over large geographic areas. Such marine organisms have a large population size, gene flow between distant populations occurs frequently, and interspecies hybridization sometimes occurs (Kuriiwa et al., 2007). Even geographically well-separated populations may be connected genetically, because there are few barriers to prevent gene flow in the oceans (Mayr, 1954; Palumbi, 1994). In contrast to the open ocean environment, the marine lakes of Palau (Western Caroline Islands), which are surrounded entirely by land and isolated from the sea, provide unique local environments for genetic differentiation of marine organisms (Dawson and Hamner, 2005; Gotoh et al., 2009; Goto et al., 2011). We have focused on marine lakes as isolated marine environments and have conducted continuous evolutionary studies of marine organisms in the Palau Islands for the past 13 years. The Palau archipelago, which consists of volcanic islands to the north and a large number of elevated limestone islands to the south (U.S.

SUMMARY Jellyfish Lake in Palau is part of the Koror State Rock Island Southern Lagoon (RISL), a UNESCO World Heritage site and is famous for its Golden Jellyfish population. Palau has seen a dramatic increase in its visitors, now over 100,000 per year, and most of those visit Jellyfish Lake, causing concern for the continued health of the lake. Our preliminary sampling for sunscreen chemicals in 2014 indicated the presence of oxybenzone (BP-3), a compound that is extremely common in personal care products, including sunscreens. The present study builds on those results, using more rigorous sampling and analytical methods to look for sunscreen products in water, sediment and jellyfish samples in Jellyfish Lake (tourism site) and three other sites (non-tourism) for comparison. Our results showed that sunscreen compounds or their transformation products (such as metabolites) are wide spread in Jellyfish Lake.

    2019 State of the Environment Report Republic of Palau April 2019 An independent report presented to the President of the Republic of Palau by the National Environmental Protection Council (NEPC) Prepared by Anuradha Gupta 1 Palau State of the Environment Report 2019 Dear President, On behalf of the National Environmental Protection Council (NEPC), I am pleased to present you with this 2019 State of the Environment Report. Our previous 2017 State of the Environment Report was an important and impactful document that spurred action in Palau and was emulated by others in the Pacific. Palau’s comprehensive effort to catalog, attach meaning, and act on research and monitoring data piqued the interest of community members and researchers, who actively sought to be included in this new 2019 Report. Thus this 2019 State of the Environment Report is even more detailed and comprehensive than the previous one. Because of the inclusion of new Indicators and information, this Report does not just cover the period from 2017 to 2019, but goes back years to decades in order to provide a thorough picture of conditions and trends. The Report was widely reviewed before completion, and I am pleased that a wide array of scientists and resource managers agree that it presents an accurate and actionable snapshot of Palau’s marine, terrestrial, and human/urban environment and resources in 2019. New in this report is a stronger emphasis on the human element of the environment. It discusses the meaning of environmental indicators in daily human lives, and provides a better picture of the organizations and agencies that are working in various sectors.
