  • Argopecten Irradians*
    MARINE ECOLOGY PROGRESS SERIES I Vol. 74: 47-59, 1991 Published July 18 Mar. Ecol. Prog. Ser. The eelgrass canopy: an above-bottom refuge from benthic predators for juvenile bay scallops Argopecten irradians* David G.Pohle, V. Monica Bricelj8*,Zaul Garcia-Esquivel Marine Sciences Research Center, State University of New York, Stony Brook, New York 11794-5000, USA ABSTRACT: Juvenile bay scallops Argopecten irradians commonly attach to shoots of eelgrass Zostera marina using byssal threads. Although this behavior has long been recognized, its adaptive value is poorly understood. This study examined (1) the size-specif~cnature of scallop attachment on eelgrass, and (2) the possible role of vertical attachment in providing refuge from benthic predators. Laboratory experiments using artificial eelgrass showed strong, inverse relationships between scallop size (over the range 6 to 20 mm) and several measures of attachment performance (percent attachment, rate of attachment, and height-above-bottom attained). Field experiments in which 10 to 15 mm scallops were tethered to natural eelgrass in Lake Montauk, Long Island, New York (USA), demonstrated a dramatic, highly significant enhancement of scallop survival at greater heights of attachment. Scallops tethered at 20 to 35 cm above bottom experienced > 59 O/O survival over 4 d, compared to < l1 O/O sunrival near the sediment surface. A similar pattern was observed in laboratory tethering experiments using trans- planted natural eelgrass and 3 crab predators common in mid-Atlantic embayments: Carcinus maenas, Libinia dubia, and Dyspanopeus sayi. The refuge value of vertical attachment was found, however, to be less with D. sayi than with the other predators tested, since individuals of ths species climbed eelgrass to feed on scallops in the upper canopy.

Received 21 Novembre 2020, Revised 31 January 2021, Accepted 28 February 2021 Abstract Currently, the continued use of petroleum based fuels is considered unsustainable due to resource depletion and the accumulation of greenhouse gases in the environment, in addition to land and water degradation. Therefore, biofuels from renewable sources can be an alternative to reduce the consumption of fossil fuels and contribute to maintaining a healthy global environment and economic profitability. Unfortunately, biodiesel produced from food stocks generally consumed by humans and animals can be a source of increased food market prices due to the increased use of arable land for growing biomass for the production of first and second generation biofuels. The production of biofuels from microalgae, as a third generation of biodiesel production, has some distinctive advantages, such as their rapid growth rate, greenhouse gas binding capacity and high lipid production capacity. This mini-study examines the current status of algae-based biofuels as a renewable energy source and their impact on the environment.

FISHER* AND DAVID B. RUDDERS Virginia Institute of Marine Science, College of William and Mary, PO Box 1346, Gloucester Point, VA 23062 ABSTRACT Channeled whelks, Busycotypus canaliculatus, support commercial fisheries throughout their range along the US Atlantic seaboard. Given the modest amounts of published information available on channeled whelk, this study focuses on understanding the temporal and spatial variations in growth and reproductive biology in the Mid-Atlantic region. Channeled whelks were sampled from three inshore commercially harvested resource areas in the US Mid-Atlantic: Ocean City, MD (OC); Eastern Shore of Virginia (ES); and Virginia Beach, VA (VB). The largest whelk measured 230-mm shell length (SL) and was recorded from OC.

Signed: Date: 12/09/2014 i Determination of the Abundance and Population Structure of Buccinum undatum in North Wales Zara Turtle Abstract A mark-recapture study and fisheries data analysis for the common whelk, Buccinum undatum, was undertaken for catches on a commercial fishing vessel operating from The fishing location, north Wales, from June-July 2014. Laboratory experiments were conducted on B.undatum to investigate tag retention rates and behavioural responses after being exposed to a number of treatments. Thick rubber bands were found to have a 100 % tag retention rate after four months. Riddling, tagging and air exposure do not affect the behavioural responses of B.undatum. The mark-recapture study was used to estimate population size and movement. 4007 whelks were tagged with thick rubber bands over three tagging events.

  • Physiological Effects and Biotransformation of Paralytic
    PHYSIOLOGICAL EFFECTS AND BIOTRANSFORMATION OF PARALYTIC SHELLFISH TOXINS IN NEW ZEALAND MARINE BIVALVES ______________________________________________________________ A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Environmental Sciences in the University of Canterbury by Andrea M. Contreras 2010 Abstract Although there are no authenticated records of human illness due to PSP in New Zealand, nationwide phytoplankton and shellfish toxicity monitoring programmes have revealed that the incidence of PSP contamination and the occurrence of the toxic Alexandrium species are more common than previously realised (Mackenzie et al., 2004). A full understanding of the mechanism of uptake, accumulation and toxin dynamics of bivalves feeding on toxic algae is fundamental for improving future regulations in the shellfish toxicity monitoring program across the country. This thesis examines the effects of toxic dinoflagellates and PSP toxins on the physiology and behaviour of bivalve molluscs. This focus arose because these aspects have not been widely studied before in New Zealand. The basic hypothesis tested was that bivalve molluscs differ in their ability to metabolise PSP toxins produced by Alexandrium tamarense and are able to transform toxins and may have special mechanisms to avoid toxin uptake. To test this hypothesis, different physiological/behavioural experiments and quantification of PSP toxins in bivalves tissues were carried out on mussels ( Perna canaliculus ), clams ( Paphies donacina and Dosinia anus ), scallops ( Pecten novaezelandiae ) and oysters ( Ostrea chilensis ) from the South Island of New Zealand. Measurements of clearance rate were used to test the sensitivity of the bivalves to PSP toxins. Other studies that involved intoxication and detoxification periods were carried out on three species of bivalves ( P.
