Halogenated aromatic hydrocarbons (HAHs) are ubiquitous contaminants of the global environment. Some HAHs, especially the so-called planar HAH (PHAH), are highly toxic to many vertebrate species. In this paper, the authors present and discuss the hypothesis that the sensitivity of marine mammals to PHAH can be predicted from an understanding of the comparative biochemistry of proteins involved in the molecular mechanisms of PHAH action.

The basic assumption in biological oceanography -- and in GLOBEC -- is that physical forcing at a wide range of space and time scales determines most of the dynamics of marine populations. This has been very productive and provides the global context for GLOBEC and other programmes. How far can it take us in the future; and, alternatively, what role is played by community interactions?

Sounds Produced by Spawning Fishes
Lobel, P.S.
Environmental Biology of Fishes, Vol. 33, pp. 351-358, 1992 WHOI-R-92-004
Low frequency sounds are shown to be associated with the spawning of two Caribbean coral reef fishes, the hamlet, Hypoplectrus unicolor (Serranidae) and the striped parrotfish, Scarus iserti (Scaridae). Both fishes produce distinctive sounds while broadcasting gametes in midwater. H. unicolor produces sounds via muscle stimulation of the swim bladder. Fin movements among group spawning S. iserti produce hydrodynamic noise. Although reproductive behaviors of these two species have been previously studied in detail, the association of sounds with mating is new. The mating sounds cannot be easily detected by human hearing underwater but are recordable using a hydrophone. The sounds are distinct and recognizable enough to allow counting and acoustic mapping of mating events in these species.

Visual Observations of Particle Manipulation During Feeding in Larvae of a Bivalve Mollusc
Gallager, S.M.
Bulletin of Marine Science, Vol. 43, No. 3, pp. 344-365 1988 WHOI-R-88-019
Observations presented by the author address three basic questions concerning the feeding behavior of bivalve larvae:
1) How does the rate of particle encounter by the pre-oral cilia of the velum influence feeding activity over a wide range of particle concentrations?
2) How efficiently are particles captured and transported to the mouth after being encountered in the medium? and
3) What mechanism(s) are available for decoupling particle encounter, capture and ingestion at satiating food levels?
Using normal and high-speed video microscopic techniques and frame-by-frame analysis, the fate of individual particles was traced through the steps of capture, transport to the mouth by the food groove, accumulation at the mouth, and ingestion and rejection from the esophagus.

To better understand the early life history of the American lobster, Homarus americanus, nutritional and bioenergetic aspects of development have been investigated. These studies focused on physiological and biochemical processes during transitional periods between extrusion of the eggs, hatching, larval development, molting, metamorphosis, and attainment of the juvenile stage and the findings of the investigators are described in this paper.
Effects of Copper and Zinc on Two Planktonic Ciliates
Stoecker, D.K., W.G. Sunda, and L.H. Davis
Marine Biology, Vol. 92, pp. 21-29, 1986 WHOI-R-86-004
Copper and zinc are essential for plant and animal growth, but both can be toxic at elevated concentrations. The availability of these and other trace metals to marine organisms has been shown to be controlled by free metal ion activity rather than the total metal concentration. There is evidence that both copper and zinc may occur at levels in marine waters which are limiting or inhibitory to some organisms. In this study, the authors examined the effects of free cupric and zinc ion activities on ciliates in a model food web consisting of a single phytoplankton species and two species of ciliates and results of both short-term and long-term experiments are reported in this paper.

Swimming Behaviour of Larvae of the Ocean Quahog Arctica islandica in Response to Pressure and Temperature
Mann, R. and C.C. Wolf
Marine Ecology, Vol. 13, pp. 211-218, 1983 WHOI-R-83-016
Trochophore larvae of the ocean quahog Arctica islandica swim continuously. At a constant temperature of 12 degrees C they are negatively geotactic, have no phototactic response and exhibit no change in swimming behaviour in the pressure range 1 to 3 bar. In a vertical thermal gradient from 9 to 25ÁC the trochophores swim throughout the experimental chamber and show no temperature preference. Veliger larvae of A. islandica alternate between periods of active upward swimming in vertically oriented helices, that is a negative geotaxis, and periods of passive sinking with the velum either trailing or retracted between closed valves. They do not swim in the horizontal plane and, in the length range 160 to 202 µm, show no phototactic response. When exposed to sequential increases and decreases in hydrostatic pressure at 12ÁC, larvae in the length range 160 to 196 µm consistently exhibited a net upward movement following an increase in pressure and a net downward movement following a decrease in pressure. The threshold pressure change to elicit response is <0.5 bar. Larvae of 170 µm length respond to increased pressure by increasing height gain per rotation. Larvae of 202 µm length exhibit no significant change in swimming behaviour with increased pressure. In a vertical thermal gradient early veligers swim in the range 7 to 23ÁC with preferential aggregation, depending upon size, in the range 12 to 18ÁC. Larvae of 204 µm length show no temperature preference in the range 6 to 20ÁC. The implication of the observed behaviour on seasonal depth distribution of A. islandica larvae in the Middle Atlantic Bight is discussed.

Automated instrumentation performs time-course incubation experiments directly in situ where natural conditions of temperature, light, hydrostatic pressure, etc., can be maintained. The sampler incubation device (SID) takes a 1-liter sample from the water and simultaneously introduces an appropriate radiotracer. During subsequent in situ incubation, 50-ml subsamples are withdrawn from the main sample at equally spaced intervals and preserved for laboratory analysis. Representative experiments revealed nonlinear carbon uptake within 0.5-1.0 h, emphasizing that even brief end-point analyses can lead to large errors in estimating phytoplankton production rates. Studies of the rapid fluctuation in phytoplankton activity resulting from cloud-induced variations in light intensity and the application of cellular fractionation methods for measuring the intracellular distribution of newly fixed carbon illustrated the utility of instrumental time-course techniques for studying phytoplankton physiology and community metabolism in situ.
Selective Grazing by the Mud Snail Ilyanassa obsoleta

Oecologia, Vol. 53, pp. 271-275, 1982 WHOI-R-82-008
Mud snails (Ilyanassa obsoleta) starved for 48 h were allowed to feed on sediments in laboratory microcosms. Sediment cores sliced at 2 mm intervals were compared to snail stomach contents for percent carbon and nitrogen, plant pigment contents and species composition of benthic diatoms. Concentrations of carbon, nitrogen, phaeopigments, phycocyanin and chlorophyll were enriched in the top 2 mm of the sediments compared to 7-10 mm depth by a factor of 2-10. In turn, these materials were 20-40 times more concentrated in snail guts than in the surface sediments. Snail feces were enriched for carbon and nitrogen by 5-7 times over the surface sediments. Bacterial chlorophyll peaked at about 3-4 mm in the sediments and was not detectable in the snail stomach contents. The C/N ratio of the snail stomach contents was only 6 compared to a ratio of 8.5 for their feces and 12 for the surface sediments. The percentage of migratory diatoms (e.g. Nitzschia and Navicula) decreased with depth where non-migratory species, such as Fragilaria pinnata, dominated. These migratory species were more common in the snails than in the sediments on which they were feeding. A comparison of daily ingestion rates to the animal's energy budget shows that this selective ingestion is sufficient to meet Ilyanassa's energy needs.

The importance of the benthic filter feeding community as a natural control on eutrophication is considered. The important environmental factors favorable for such a control are relatively shallow water depths and a dense benthic filter feeding community of small animals. The criteria are summarized in the equivalence of the water recycling time for phytoplankton growth. The criteria are applied specifically to the conditions that exist in South San Fransisco Bay.

Birds have generally been overlooked in research involving the response of herbivores to naturally-occurring feeding stimulants and inhibitors on the assumption that they are poorly endowed with chemical senses. Research in the past 15 years, however, has shown that some groups of birds have quite well developed chemical senses and use these abilities to find food and locate nests. These reports point to a much more significant role for chemoreception in waterfowl than has generally been assumed in the past and raises the possibility that grazing waterfowl, like insects and mammals, are responsive to natural plant substances. With this in mind, the authors have investigated the role of secondary plant substances in the feeding behavior of geese.

Three examples are used to illustrate the range of statistical design problems encountered in marine research. The first example uses nonlinear design methods to find the optimum survey pattern for accurately locating the positions of acoustic beacons used in precision navigation. In the second example, time series methods are used to evaluate environmental survey designs and to determine the number of times to repeat a survey over time. The third example shows that a variation of double sampling procedures can be implemented quickly in response to an oil spill, providing greater flexibility in evaluating the effect of the oil spill.

The results of Smith and Grassle (1977) for the family of expected species diversity measures are reviewed. These results are applied to estimating variability in local diversity in the deep sea from small benthic cores. These results are extended to a wider class of diversity indices including a modification of Brillouin's index. Finally, unbiased estimation methods are applied to the estimation of species-area diversity.
