There is generally very little company Wallenius Wilhelmsen Logistics (WWL). We rely assessment of zooplankton in models and getting this on the good will of shipping companies to tow our trophic level right is critical for correctly estimating the Continuous Plankton Recorders (CPRs) free-of-charge. conversion of primary production into fish. As part of Previously we have had to use several different vessels ZOOM, Felicity has worked closely with the research from different companies to sample routes from Brisbane community to assemble nearly 15,000 zooplankton to Perth, but now we have the one vessel the Wilhelmsen biomass observations, which will be used to create a Tonsberg doing the entire route. We have also installed a gridded product for modellers (see page 9). The ZOOM towing point to a second WWL vessel Wallenius Salome so Task Team has also written a perspectives paper, led that we have a back-up if the MV Tonsberg changes adeptly by Dr Jason Everett, that seeks to bridge the gap routes. Well done Tonka and Frank for making this between modellers and observationalists by describing happen! different types of models for observationalists, and by describing various types of zooplankton data for modellers.

To ensure there was minimal effect on through the use of observation models that transform data quality, we conducted an extensive simulation model outputs to be more like observations. ZOOM will analysis which showed almost no change in abundance build on the relationships forged and the methods estimates and very little change in diversity estimates developed in its first year to incorporate more plankton in derived from CPR and NRS samples. These changes have models through several case studies around Australia. dropped our counting time by 20% with virtually no change in the data. I would like to acknowledge the hard The IMOS Plankton Laboratory has continued to support work of the Team – Frank, Claire, Anita, Mark, Julian, several collaborators this past year. Dr Micheli Duarte de Felicity and Ruth – over the past year to catch up with Paula Costa has helped with identification of fish larvae for much of our counting backlog, especially through the the National Ichthyoplankton Monitoring and Observing redundancy turmoil at CSIRO. I would also like to thank (NIMO) at the IMOS NRS, Boer Bao helped develop rapid IMOS for their continued support and we will endeavor to counting protocols for the cyanobacterium Trichodesmium keep producing high quality, species-level plankton data as from net samples at the IMOS NRS, Leslie Braberry and affordably as possible.

    1 11EP0RT ON THE DIATOMS OF THE ALBATROSS VOYAGES IN THE PACIFIC OCEAN, 1888-1904. By Albert Mann. [Assisted in the bibliography ami citations by P. L. Kicker.] INTRODUCTION. The paper here offered is a report of the diatoms found in the sea dredgings and soundings of the United States Bureau of Fisheries steamer Albatross, which covers all the material collected and avail- able up to January 1, 1005, exclusive of what is embraced in a short report already published by the author.® The preliminary work was done in the Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D. C., during the winters of 1809-1900 and 1904-5. The crude material, as a rule bottled and preserved in alcohol, was first examined under the microscope, using magnifying powers ranging from 23 to 500 diameters, so as to discover which gatherings gave promise of affording dialomaccous material. In very many cases no trace of diatoms was discoverable. The gatherings thus selected were then prepared for more accurate investigation by methods that are briefly described as follows: The mud is first passed through a sieve of bolting cloth with a mesh of about one thirty-second inch, so as to strain out large pieces of for- eign material, such as bits of animal tissue, fragments of shells, etc. The alcohol is then eliminated by washing in filtered or distilled water in a glass beaker and decanting of the liquid after all solid material has settled. The mud is next boiled in a beaker with concentrated com- mercial hydrochloric acid for one-half hour. The acid when cold is decanted and the residue washed with water to get rid of the resultant salts.

  • Myanmar Protected Areas: Context, Current Status and Challenges”, One of the Outputs of of Biodiversity for Successful Conservations Programs
    Myanmar Protected Areas Context, Current Status and Challenges Myanmar Protected Areas Forewords In memory of U Uga We, at the European Union, have been fully committed to environmental protection and conservation. Our engagement principles are embedded in the European Union Consensus on Development published in 2005 that outlines our support for biodiversity conservation, water and energy supply as well as the fight against climate change. Environmental protection underpins sustainable development, the more so in a country as Burma/ Myanmar where large parts of the population rely on natural resources for their food, shelter and energy needs. The world’s poorest are those directly dependent on natural resources for their daily survival and therefore most vulnerable to environmental hazards. This is why the European Union has made the protection and sustainable management of natural resources a priority in its poverty reduction policies. In Burma/Myanmar, a key instrument for cooperation has been the Non State Actors (NSA) Programme. The overall objective of the NSA programme is to support the emergence of civil society organizations and enable them to fight poverty across a range of sectors such as education, health and livelihoods. The project “Strengthening environmental NGOs in Burma/Myanmar” implemented jointly by Istituto Oikos and BANCA was the first environment initiative funded by the European Union under this programme. Sound environmental conservation is only effective if based on accurate data and analysis on the state of the environment. This project was a wonderful opportunity to build the knowledge base on biodiversity resources while, at the same time, building capacity for better data collection and analysis.

In the last Istanbul, Turkey decades, increasing numbers of contributions extended the knowledge of the marine phytoplank- ton. While several studies dedicated to planktonic forms and the checklists published concerning on the phytoplankton, relatively low numbers of benthic diatom studies were performed. There- fore, this is the first detailed list of the marine diatoms including both planktonic and benthic forms in Turkish coasts. This paper brings up the checklist of the past research referring to the authors in ORCID IDs of the author(s): the last two centuries within the scope of the latest nomenclature. A total of 767 taxa (species, A.K.. 0000-0003-3843-1335 varieties and forms) belonging to 183 genera were listed.

Introduction The training ship "Oshoro Maru" of the Faculty of Fisheries. Hokkaido University, made a round-Japan cruise from October 14 to De:::ember 15, 1952. The purpose of this cruise was not only for the regular training of cadets in navigation and seamanship. but also for a preliminary trial of unde...--sea observations at several localities along the coasts of Japan Islands by means of the "Kuroshio", Undersea Observation Chamber (Inoue et aI., 1953) under supervision of Prof. N. Inoue, Faculty of Fisheries, Hokkaido University, and Dr. T. Sasaki, Scientific Research Institute, Tokyo. On this occasion Prof. Motoda who was on board the ship made collections of the surface plankton by underway sampl­ ings through the whole course of the cruise off the coasts of Honshu and Kyushu. These samples of plankton were put at the disposal of the present author. The plankton diatoms are dealt with in the present paper. In Japanese waters in recent years a group of planktologists in Marine Observatories, Ministry of Transportation, has contributed to understanding the nature of water masses by observing the distribution of plankton diatoms.
