The Mysid-Feeding Guild of Demersal Fishes in the Brackish Zone of the Westerschelde Estuary
Chapter 7 The Mysid feeding guild offishes in the Westerschelde 123 CHAPTER 7 THE MYSID-FEEDING GUILD OF DEMERSAL FISHES IN THE BRACKISH ZONE OF THE WESTERSCHELDE ESTUARY 63962 K. Hostens - J. Mees University of Gent, Depa rtment of Biology, Marine Biology Section, Ledeganckstraat 35, B-9000 Gent, Belgium Key words: stomach content, consumption, Mysidacea, flatfish, gobies, gadoids, clupeoids Published in Journal of Fish Biology 1999, 55: 704-719 Abstract. The demersal fish fauna of the mesohaline zone of the Westerschelde estuary (south -west Netherlands) was sampled intensively in the period 1990-1992. Almost 500 beam trawl samples were taken in both subtidal (330 samples) and intertidal (144 samples) habitats. These yielded 44 fish species, mostly as juveniles. The area was found to function as a nursery for several demersal fish species. and harboured large populations ofhyper - benthic mysids. Three gobies, three flatfish, one clupeoid and one gadoid dominated the fish fauna, while three mysid species were important components of the holohyperbenthos. From c. 1500 stomach contents of 25 fish species, 44 prey species were identified, the most abundant of which were also common in the hyperbenthal. The demersal fish community consisted of a group that foraged subtidally on fast-moving epi- and hyperbenthic prey (for example gadoids, gobies and clupeoids) and a group that foraged on slow-moving or sessile endobenthic organisms, mainly in intertidal areas (for example most flatfish species). Mysidacea occurred in >50 % stom - achs analysed and were taken as prey by 19 of the 25 fish species. Mysids were most important in the diets of Pomatoschistus minutus, P. -
Determination of Trophic Relationships Within a High Arctic Marine Food Web Using 613C and 615~ Analysis *
MARINE ECOLOGY PROGRESS SERIES Published July 23 Mar. Ecol. Prog. Ser. Determination of trophic relationships within a high Arctic marine food web using 613c and 615~ analysis * Keith A. ~obson'.2, Harold E. welch2 ' Department of Biology. University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. Canada S7N OWO Department of Fisheries and Oceans, Freshwater Institute, 501 University Crescent, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada R3T 2N6 ABSTRACT: We measured stable-carbon (13C/12~)and/or nitrogen (l5N/l4N)isotope ratios in 322 tissue samples (minus lipids) representing 43 species from primary producers through polar bears Ursus maritimus in the Barrow Strait-Lancaster Sound marine food web during July-August, 1988 to 1990. 613C ranged from -21.6 f 0.3%0for particulate organic matter (POM) to -15.0 f 0.7%0for the predatory amphipod Stegocephalus inflatus. 615~was least enriched for POM (5.4 +. O.8%0), most enriched for polar bears (21.1 f 0.6%0), and showed a step-wise enrichment with trophic level of +3.8%0.We used this enrichment value to construct a simple isotopic food-web model to establish trophic relationships within thls marine ecosystem. This model confirms a food web consisting primanly of 5 trophic levels. b13C showed no discernible pattern of enrichment after the first 2 trophic levels, an effect that could not be attributed to differential lipid concentrations in food-web components. Although Arctic cod Boreogadus saida is an important link between primary producers and higher trophic-level vertebrates during late summer, our isotopic model generally predicts closer links between lower trophic-level invertebrates and several species of seabirds and marine mammals than previously established. -
Controls and Structure of the Microbial Loop
Controls and Structure of the Microbial Loop A symposium organized by the Microbial Oceanography summer course sponsored by the Agouron Foundation Saturday, July 1, 2006 Asia Room, East-West Center, University of Hawaii Symposium Speakers: Peter J. leB Williams (University of Bangor, Wales) David L. Kirchman (University of Delaware) Daniel J. Repeta (Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute) Grieg Steward (University of Hawaii) The oceans constitute the largest ecosystems on the planet, comprising more than 70% of the surface area and nearly 99% of the livable space on Earth. Life in the oceans is dominated by microbes; these small, singled-celled organisms constitute the base of the marine food web and catalyze the transformation of energy and matter in the sea. The microbial loop describes the dynamics of microbial food webs, with bacteria consuming non-living organic matter and converting this energy and matter into living biomass. Consumption of bacteria by predation recycles organic matter back into the marine food web. The speakers of this symposium will explore the processes that control the structure and functioning of microbial food webs and address some of these fundamental questions: What aspects of microbial activity do we need to measure to constrain energy and material flow into and out of the microbial loop? Are we able to measure bacterioplankton dynamics (biomass, growth, production, respiration) well enough to edu/agouroninstitutecourse understand the contribution of the microbial loop to marine systems? What factors control the flow of material and energy into and out of the microbial loop? At what scales (space and time) do we need to measure processes controlling the growth and metabolism of microorganisms? How does our knowledge of microbial community structure and diversity influence our understanding of the function of the microbial loop? Program: 9:00 am Welcome and Introductory Remarks followed by: Peter J. -
