  • 8.4 the Significance of Ocean Deoxygenation for Continental Margin Mesopelagic Communities J
    8.4 The significance of ocean deoxygenation for continental margin mesopelagic communities J. Anthony Koslow 8.4 The significance of ocean deoxygenation for continental margin mesopelagic communities J. Anthony Koslow Institute for Marine and Antarctic Studies, University of Tasmania, Hobart, Tasmania, Australia and Scripps Institution of Oceanography, University of California, SD, La Jolla, CA 92093 USA. Email: [email protected] Summary • Global climate models predict global warming will lead to declines in midwater oxygen concentrations, with greatest impact in regions of oxygen minimum zones (OMZ) along continental margins. Time series from these regions indicate that there have been significant changes in oxygen concentration, with evidence of both decadal variability and a secular declining trend in recent decades. The areal extent and volume of hypoxic and suboxic waters have increased substantially in recent decades with significant shoaling of hypoxic boundary layers along continental margins. • The mesopelagic communities in OMZ regions are unique, with the fauna noted for their adaptations to hypoxic and suboxic environments. However, mesopelagic faunas differ considerably, such that deoxygenation and warming could lead to the increased dominance of subtropical and tropical faunas most highly adapted to OMZ conditions. • Denitrifying bacteria within the suboxic zones of the ocean’s OMZs account for about a third of the ocean’s loss of fixed nitrogen. Denitrification in the eastern tropical Pacific has varied by about a factor of 4 over the past 50 years, about half due to variation in the volume of suboxic waters in the Pacific. Continued long- term deoxygenation could lead to decreased nutrient content and hence decreased ocean productivity and decreased ocean uptake of carbon dioxide (CO2).

ZooKeys 466: 103–110. doi: 10.3897/zookeys.466.8523 Abstract The study of deep-sea fish fauna is hampered by a lack of data due to the difficulty and high cost incurred in its surveys and collections. Taiwan is situated along the edge of the Eurasia plate, at the junction of three Large Marine Ecosystems or Ecoregions of the East China Sea, South China Sea and the Philippines. As nearly two-thirds of its surrounding marine ecosystems are deep-sea environments, Taiwan is expected to hold a rich diversity of deep-sea fish.

The study of the Portuguese marine ichthyofauna has a long historical tradition, rooted back in the 18th Century. Here we present an annotated checklist of the marine fishes from Portuguese waters, including the area encompassed by the proposed extension of the Portuguese continental shelf and the Economic Exclusive Zone (EEZ). The list is based on historical literature records and taxon occurrence data obtained from natural history collections, together with new revisions and occurrences.

E-mail: [email protected] 2 Conservation International Indonesia Marine Program. Jl. Dr. Muwardi No. 17, Renon, Denpasar 80235 Indonesia. Abstract A checklist of shallow (to 60 m depth) reef fishes is provided for the Bird’s Head Peninsula region of West Papua, Indonesia. The area, which occupies the extreme western end of New Guinea, contains the world’s most diverse assemblage of coral reef fishes. The current checklist, which includes both historical records and recent survey results, includes 1,511 species in 451 genera and 111 families. Respective species totals for the three main coral reef areas – Raja Ampat Islands, Fakfak-Kaimana coast, and Cenderawasih Bay – are 1320, 995, and 877. In addition to its extraordinary species diversity, the region exhibits a remarkable level of endemism considering its relatively small area. A total of 26 species in 14 families are currently considered to be confined to the region. Introduction and finally a complex geologic past highlighted The region consisting of eastern Indonesia, East by shifting island arcs, oceanic plate collisions, Timor, Sabah, Philippines, Papua New Guinea, and widely fluctuating sea levels (Polhemus and the Solomon Islands is the global centre of 2007). reef fish diversity (Allen 2008). Approximately 2,460 species or 60 percent of the entire reef fish The Bird’s Head Peninsula and surrounding fauna of the Indo-West Pacific inhabits this waters has attracted the attention of naturalists and region, which is commonly referred to as the scientists ever since it was first visited by Coral Triangle (CT).

Deep Ocean Habitats Things change the deeper you go in the ocean: light disappears, temperatures grow increasingly colder, and pressure gets much higher. The amount of oxygen in the water sunlight zone decreases with depth but then gets higher again at the bottom! Because these changes twilight zone affect the types of organisms that can survive there, the ocean is divided into five layers by depth called life zones. Only the sunlight zone receives enough sunlight for algae to convert light into energy midnight zone (photosynthesis). Because almost all food webs start with plants or algae, this is the zone where the most animals live. The twilight zone still gets some sunlight, but not enough for photosynthesis. The animals that live here either travel to the sunlight zone to feed or depend on food falling from above. There is no light in the midnight zone. Most abyssal zone of the animals that live here produce their own light through bioluminescence. The abyssal zone is pitch black, almost freezing cold, and has little oxygen and incredibly high pressure, yet animals still live here. In the deep trenches is the hadal zone. It is like the abyssal zone, except with even more hadal zone immense
