  • Macrobrachium Intermedium in Southeastern Australia: Spatial Heterogeneity and the Effects of Species of Seagrass
    MARINE ECOLOGY PROGRESS SERIES Vol. 75: 239-249, 1991 Published September 11 Mar. Ecol. Prog. Ser. Demographic patterns of the palaemonid prawn Macrobrachium intermedium in southeastern Australia: spatial heterogeneity and the effects of species of seagrass Charles A. Gray* School of Biological Sciences, University of Sydney, 2006, NSW. Australia ABSTRACT. The effects of species of seagrass (Zostera capricorni and Posidonia australis) on spatial and temporal heterogeneity in the demography of estuarine populations of the palaemonid prawn Macrobrachium intermedium across 65 km of the Sydney region, southeastern Australia, were examined. Three estuaries were sampled in 1983 and 1984 to assess the magnitude of intra- and inter- estuary variability in demographic characteristics among populations. Species of seagrass had no effect on the demographic patterns of populations: differences in the magnitude and directions of change in abundances, recruitment, reproductive characteristics, size structures and growth were as great among populations within each species of seagrass as those between the 2 seagrasses Abiotic factors, such as the location of a meadow in relation to depth of water and distance offshore, and the interactions of these factors with recruiting larvae are hypothesised to have greater influence than the species of seagrass in determining the distribution and abundance of these prawns. Spatial and temporal heterogeneity in demography was similar across all spatial scales sampled: among meadows (50 m to 3 km apart) in an estuary and among meadows in all 3 estuaries (10 to 65 km apart). Variability in demographic processes among populations in the Sydney region was most likely due to stochastic factors extrinsic to the seagrasses then~selves.I conclude that the demography of seagrass-dwelling estuarine populations of M.

  • Jellyfish Catostylus Mosaicus (Rhizostomeae) in New South Wales, Australia
    - MARINE ECOLOGY PROGRESS SERIES Vol. 196: 143-155,2000 Published April 18 Mar Ecol Prog Ser l Geographic separation of stocks of the edible jellyfish Catostylus mosaicus (Rhizostomeae) in New South Wales, Australia K. A. Pitt*, M. J. Kingsford School of Biological Sciences, Zoology Building, A08 University of Sydney, New South Wales 2006, Australia ABSTRACT: The population structure of the commercially harvested jellyfish Catostylus mosaicus (Scyphozoa, Rhizostomeae) was investigated in estuaries and bays in New South Wales, Australia. Variations in abundance and recruitment were studied in 6 estuaries separated by distances ranglng from 75 to 800 km. Patterns of abundance differed greatly among estuaries and the rank abundance among estuaries changed on 5 out of the 6 times sampling occurred. Great variation in the timing of recruitment was also observed among estuaries. Variations in abundance and recruitment were as extreme among nearby estuaries as distant ones. Broad scale sampling and detailed time series of abundance over a period of 2.7 yr at 2 locations showed no consistent seasonal trend in abundance at 1 location, but there was some indication of seasonality at the second location. At Botany Bay, the abun- dance of medusae increased with distance into the estuary and on 19 out of the 30 times sampling occurred medusae were found at sites adjacent to where rivers enter the bay. Medusae were found to be strong swimmers and this may aid medusae in maintaining themselves in the upper-reaches of estu- aries, where advection from an estuary is least likely. Variability in patterns of abundance and recruit- ment suggested regulation by processes occurring at the scale of individual estuaries and, combined with their relatively strong swimming ability, supported a model of population retention within estuar- ies.

  • Dolans Bay Marina
    EXPANSION OF DOLANS BAY MARINA. MP 10_0017 Submission by George Cotis in opposition to the proposal. In opposing this proposal, I would first like to object to the notification process. Despite the Department notifying residents and households of the exhibition of the proposal to expand Dolans Bay Marina, no notification was given to the occupiers of moorings in Dolans Bay. This is important on a number of grounds: Mooring occupiers may live outside the range of notification methods; There is no way of knowing which moorings may be directly or indirectly affected; Re-location of, or some other negative impact on moorings, is a likely consequence of the proposal. I made this known to the Departmentʼs officer early in the display process without any response. I therefore submit that the notification process is flawed in so far as people likely to be directly and adversely affected may have been excluded or overlooked. Further, the failure anywhere within the material which is on display is it made known which of the moorings in Dolans Bay are directly or indirectly affected, and what is anticipated may be the consequences. This denies the opportunity of informed comment. The expansion is opposed on the following grounds: No need for the expansion (other than the private gain for the proponent) is established. I will, at 1 below address the proponentʼs claims for need. In the event that this is not sufficient ground for refusal/denial, the following are offered as substantial and additional grounds: • The failure of the proposal to meet the tests of the Port Hacking Plan of Management • The failure to tie shore-side infrastructure upgrading with the on-water expansion.
