The response of marine organisms and ecosystem processes to these changes are still not well understood. In this framework, insights in resilience, thresholds and tipping points for species, communities and ecosystems are of paramount importance. Addressing these endpoints is however highly complex, and requires robust, interdisciplinary and collaborative research networks to progressively reach a holistic understanding. By design, the vERSO project was intended to forge ahead and identify key areas of research in this respect, and in line with the SCAR priorities. Building on the experience gathered by its long-term partners and taking advantage of the overlap period with another BELSPO-funded project (rECTO), the vERSO developments were intentionally novel and ambitious (in experimental, field and integration facets). Objectives The goal of the vERSO project was to assess the impact of the main stressors driven by global change on benthic Antarctic ecosystems using an integrated multiscale approach including different representative size classes of the benthos. Two principal regions with current contrasting responses to global change have been considered, namely the Western Antarctic Peninsula and the East Antarctic. To reach this goal, researches on connectivity and adaptation, trophic ecology and sensitivity and resilience were conducted by all partners and integrated using state of the art modelling techniques. Results and conclusions vERSO has globally reached its proposed objectives, paving the way for its sister project, rECTO. vERSO members have participated in 11 expeditions to the Antarctic. Specific efforts were devoted to involving several consortium partners in the fieldwork to optimize the exchange of know-how and crosslinkages using the obtained results. This is reflected in the authorships of the papers and datasets published so far. Most of the experimental work has been carried out successfully, including in logistically-challenging conditions. Some of the explorative, long-term experiments, are still ongoing in the framework of rECTO. A dedicated Information System was setup and has been merged in various long-term initiatives, dedicated to the discovery and publication of raw data. To date, vERSO has published 52 papers and book chapters and submitted 4 others. Over 50 datasets have been generated and are being documented and published. vERSO was represented 97 times in international conferences. The unique opportunity offered by the rECTO/vERSO overlap period allowed efficient synergies which have been largely exploited to maximize data and know-how flows. The visibility of the projects peaked in July 2017, during the SCAR Biology Symposium, which will be held in Leuven. This conference gathered 402 people from 32 countries.

    The spatial, temporal and structural distribution of Antarctic seafloor biodiversity by Jan Jansen, Dipl.-Biol. Under the supervision of Craig R. Johnson Nicole A. Hill Piers K. Dunstan and John McKinlay Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Quantitative Antarctic Science Institute for Marine and Antarctic Studies (IMAS), University of Tasmania May 2019 In loving memory of my dad, whose passion for adventure, sport and all of nature’s life and diversity inspired so many kids, including me, whose positive and generous attitude touched so many people’s lives, and whose love for the ocean has carried over to me. The spatial, temporal and structural distribution of Antarctic seafloor biodiversity by Jan Jansen Abstract Biodiversity is nature’s most valuable resource. The Southern Ocean contains significant levels of marine biodiversity as a result of its isolated history and a combination of exceptional environmental conditions. However, little is known about the spatial and temporal distribution of biodiversity on the Antarctic continental shelf, hindering informed marine spatial planning, policy development underpinning regulation of human activity, and predicting the response of Antarctic marine ecosystems to environmental change. In this thesis, I provide detailed insight into the spatial and temporal distribution of Antarctic benthic macrofaunal and demersal fish biodiversity. Using data from the George V shelf region in East Antarctica, I address some of the main issues currently hindering understanding of the functioning of the Antarctic ecosystem and the distribution of biodiversity at the seafloor. The focus is on spatial biodiversity prediction with particular consideration given to previously unavailable environmental factors that are integral in determining where species are able to live, and the poor relationships often found between species distributions and other environmental factors.

Marsh1 1 Department of Aquatic Zoology, Western Australian Museum, Locked Bag 49, Welshpool DC, Western Australia 6986, Australia * Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT – Australian state museums contain extensive species data and can provide baseline biodiversity information for many areas. We collated the specimen records from the Kimberley region of Australia and found 382 shallow water (<30 m) echinoderm species, comparable to available estimates of species richness from adjacent regions such as the Pilbara, ‘Coral Triangle’ or Great Barrier Reef. We identify and discuss taxonomic and collecting gaps, cross shelf patterns in species richness and composition, biogeography, and suggest some areas for future research on echinoderms in the region. At most locations, echinoderms have been incompletely sampled and many taxonomic gaps are apparent. Sampling to date has focused on hard substrates, yet there are extensive soft sediment areas in the region. More collections have occurred at inshore reefs and islands, which are more numerous, than at offshore atolls. Cumulative species richness is higher inshore than offshore, but at most inshore locations species richness is lower than offshore. However, this is biased by more collections having occurred intertidally inshore compared to subtidally offshore and much remains to be discovered about the inshore subtidal echinoderm fauna. Five times more endemic species are recorded inshore than offshore, with conservation implications. Further work is needed to identify specimens in existing collections. KEYWORDS: natural history collections, species inventory, biodiversity, NW Australia, baseline INTRODUCTION taxa known from an area henceforth titled the Kimberley Project Area (Project Area).

  • Terra Nova Bay, Ross Sea

    Terra Nova Bay, Ross Sea

    MEASURE 14 - ANNEX Management Plan for Antarctic Specially Protected Area No 161 TERRA NOVA BAY, ROSS SEA 1. Description values to be protected A coastal marine area encompassing 29.4km2 between Adélie Cove and Tethys Bay, Terra Nova Bay, is proposed as an Antarctic Specially Protected Area (ASPA) by Italy on the grounds that it is an important littoral area for well-established and long-term scientific investigations. The Area is confined to a narrow strip of waters extending approximately 9.4km in length immediately to the south of the Mario Zucchelli Station (MZS) and up to a maximum of 7km from the shore. No marine resource harvesting has been, is currently, or is planned to be, conducted within the Area, nor in the immediate surrounding vicinity. The site typically remains ice-free in summer, which is rare for coastal areas in the Ross Sea region, making it an ideal and accessible site for research into the near-shore benthic communities of the region. Extensive marine ecological research has been carried out at Terra Nova Bay since 1986/87, contributing substantially to our understanding of these communities which had not previously been well-described. High diversity at both species and community levels make this Area of high ecological and scientific value. Studies have revealed a complex array of species assemblages, often co-existing in mosaics (Cattaneo-Vietti, 1991; Sarà et al., 1992; Cattaneo-Vietti et al., 1997; 2000b; 2000c; Gambi et al., 1997; Cantone et al., 2000). There exist assemblages with high species richness and complex functioning, such as the sponge and anthozoan communities, alongside loosely structured, low diversity assemblages.

"^Corresponding author. Email: [email protected] Abstract. Aporometra Clark, 1938, which belongs to the monotypic Aporometridae, is a crinoid genus endemic to temperate Australian waters. It has been described as being 'viviparous' and is among the smallest of comatulids. The small size of specimens, and poor morphological justifications for specific diagnoses have created uncertainty over the number of species in the genus and their distributions. This study identified a suite of characters using data from scanning electron microscopy and mtDNA sequencing {COI and ND2) to assess the number of species of Aporometra. Specimens were obtained from museimis and collected from Western Australia, South Australia, Victoria and New South Wales. Type material was also examined when possible. Phylogenetic hypotheses were generated using maximum parsimony-based analyses of the separate and combined datasets. The results support the monophyly oí Aporometra and the presence of two species, Aporometra wilsoni (Bell, 1888) aaà Aporometra occidentalis A. H. Clark, 1938, along the southern Australian coast. The status of the third nominal species, Aporometra paedophora (H. L. Clark, 1909), remains to be resolved, but it may be a junior synonym of ^. wilsoni. Morphological diagnoses are reviewed. Aporometra occidentalis was only found in Western Australia, while A. wilsoni was found from Western Australia to Victoria.

The specimens were identified as Anneissia pinguis (A.H. Clark, 1909), which belongs to the family Comatulidae of the order Comatulida. Anneissia pinguis was first described by A.H. Clark in 1909 around southern Japan. This species can be distinguished from other Anneissia species by a longish and stout cirrus, much fewer arms, and short distal cirrus segments. The morphological features of Korean specimens are as follows: large disk (20-35 mm), 28-36 segments and 32-43 mm length cirrus, division series in all 4 (3+4), very stout and strong distal pinnule with 18-19 comb and 40 arms. In Korea fauna, only three species of genus Anneissia were recorded: A. intermedia, A. japonica, and A. solaster. In this study, we provide the morphological description and phylogenetic analysis based on cytochrome c oxidase subunit I.

    Measure 7 (2019) Management Plan for Antarctic Specially Protected Area No. 161 TERRA NOVA BAY, ROSS SEA Introduction The ASPA of Terra Nova Bay is a coastal marine area encompassing 29.4 km2 between Adélie Cove and Tethys Bay, Terra Nova Bay, immediately to the south of the Italian Mario Zucchelli Station (MZS). Terra Nova Bay was originally designated as Antarctic Specially Protected Area through Measure 2 (2003) after a proposal of Italy. CCAMLR considered and approved its designation during CCAMLR XXVI, Hobart 2007. The Management Plan has been revised in 2008, through measure 14 (2008) and in 2013 through measure 15 (2013). The primary reason for the designation of Terra Nova Bay as an Antarctic Specially Protected Area (ASPA) is its particular interest for ongoing and future research. Long term studies conducted in the last 30 years by Italian scientists have revealed a complex array of species assemblages, characterized by unique symbiotic interactions. In this Area, several VME species are also present, above all the Antarctic scallop Adamussium colbecki and pterobranchs, and new species continue to be described. The high ecological and scientific values derived from the diverse range of species and assemblages, together with the vulnerability of the Area to disturbance by scientific oversampling, alien introductions, and direct human impacts arising from increasing activities at the nearby permanent scientific stations (also considering the construction of the new gravel runway at Boulder Clay - Final CEE, 2017) are such that the Area requires long-term special protection. No Domain nor ACBR number is proposed as the Environmental Domain Analysis for Antarctica (Resolution 3, 2008) and Antarctic Conservation Biogeographic Regions (Resolution 6, 2012) classifications are based on terrestrial criteria.
