Twenty‐first‐century climate change impacts on marine animal biomass and ecosystem structure across ocean basins

Climate change effects on marine ecosystems include impacts on primary production, ocean temperature, species distributions, and abundance at local to global scales. These changes will significantly alter marine ecosystem structure and function with associated socio‐economic impacts on ecosystem services, marine fisheries, and fishery‐dependent societies. Yet how these changes may play out among ocean basins over the 21st century remains unclear, with most projections coming from single ecosystem models that do not adequately capture the range of model uncertainty. We address this by using six marine ecosystem models within the Fisheries and Marine Ecosystem Model Intercomparison Project (Fish‐MIP) to analyze responses of marine animal biomass in all major ocean basins to contrasting climate change scenarios. Under a high emissions scenario (RCP8.5), total marine animal biomass declined by an ensemble mean of 15%–30% (±12%–17%) in the North and South Atlantic and Pacific, and the Indian Ocean by 2100, whereas polar ocean basins experienced a 20%–80% (±35%–200%) increase. Uncertainty and model disagreement were greatest in the Arctic and smallest in the South Pacific Ocean. Projected changes were reduced under a low (RCP2.6) emissions scenario. Under RCP2.6 and RCP8.5, biomass projections were highly correlated with changes in net primary production and negatively correlated with projected sea surface temperature increases across all ocean basins except the polar oceans. Ecosystem structure was projected to shift as animal biomass concentrated in different size‐classes across ocean basins and emissions scenarios. We highlight that climate change mitigation measures could moderate the impacts on marine animal biomass by reducing biomass declines in the Pacific, Atlantic, and Indian Ocean basins. The range of individual model projections emphasizes the importance of using an ensemble approach in assessing uncertainty of future change.     

GRADIENT ANALYSIS OF DIATOM ASSEMBLAGES IN WESTERN KENTUCKY WETLANDS1

Diatom and water chemistry data from 35 wetland sites in western Kentucky were used to assess diatoms as indicators of ecological conditions in wetlands. The wetlands were affected by different degrees of acid mine drainage and agriculture. Canonical correspondence analysis indicated that the distribution of diatoms was highly correlated with conductivity and total phosphorus (TP), two variables commonly associated with acidic mine drainage and agriculture, respectively. Diatom-based inference models were developed for use as quantitative indicators of two important environmental variables in wetlands: conductivity and TP. Diatom-inferred conductivity and TP values were highly correlated with measured values. Cross-validation with jackknifing procedures suggested that high apparent r² between inferred and measured conductivity was overly optimistic and should be treated with caution. Jackknifing-derived TP inference models performed poorly in predicting TP toward the ends of low and high TP concentrations. In general, the conductivity inference models based on plankton had better predictability than those based on epiphyton. Epiphyton-based inference models can predict TP better than plankton. Therefore, diatoms in planktonic and epiphytic assemblages could provide complementary information on ecological conditions. Our data suggest that diatoms can reflect major regional environmental gradients and therefore can be used as indicators of the ecological conditions in wetlands. Quantitative inference models with known predictive power can aid the development of realistic and ecologically sound biotic indices for this region.     

Isotopic metrics as a tool for assessing the effects of mine pollution on stream food webs

Most tools used to assess pollution impacts are based on structural, or less frequently, functional aspects of biotic communities. However, the application of measures that take a food web approach to understand the effects of stress on stream ecosystems offers a new perspective and promising insights. We assessed quantitative isotopic metrics, which describe characteristics of food web structure, as indicators of acid mine drainage (AMD) in 12 streams along a stress gradient and compared these metrics with traditional structural and functional metrics. The gradient ranged from highly stressed (pH < 3) streams with elevated concentrations of dissolved metals (Fe and Al) to moderately acidic streams (pH 3.6–4.9) with substrata coated in metal hydroxide precipitates and circumneutral reference streams. Key differences in food web structure were detected by the isotopic metrics. Specifically, fewer trophic levels and reduced trophic diversity characterized food webs in all mining impacted streams but the differences were not significant along the gradient. In contrast, most structural and functional metrics were significant predictors of AMD as stress increased. Therefore, our results suggest that isotopic metrics offer little advantage over traditional metrics in terms of detecting impacts for biomonitoring purposes. However, they do provide additional insights into how whole food webs are disrupted, and are likely to be more useful for guiding stream management and rehabilitation strategies.     

The Bourtanger Moor: endurance and vulnerability of a raised bog system

From the study of a raised bog complex in the former Bourtanger Moor in the northeastern Netherlands, which was formed between ca. 4500 BC and 1700 AD, it is clear that raised bogs are both very robust and vulnerable systems, which can develop within fairly broad climatological limits, but that they are also extremely sensitive to the effects of drainage caused by reclamation carried out by man. By means of good management, aimed primarily at restoring the typical ombrogenous hydrological system, in all likelihood it will be possible to develop the growth of raised bog in nature reserves suitable for this purpose, namely peat-bog relicts.     

Short term biotic response before and during the treatment of an acid mine drainage with sodium carbonate

The lower portion of Upper Three Runs, a woodland stream in central Pennsylvania, receives acid drainage from a strip mine. In 1974, the effect of this input on pH and benthic invertebrates was studied by Tomkiewicz & Dunson (1977). We sampled the same stations in 1986 and then treated the mine drainage with sodium carbonate for seven days in an effort to evaluate the short term colonization response of brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) and invertebrates. No differences in the pattern of pH and invertebrate distribution was found between the 1974 and 1986 results, although pH values and invertebrate densities were higher in 1986. Total number of invertebrates and number of taxa colonizing bricks during three pre-treatment time periods (8, 10, 18 days) did not differ from the single treatment period (7 days). However, two species of Baetis (Ephemeroptera: Baetidae) did increase in the treatment section during sodium carbonate application. The number of brook trout also increased in the treatment section, as compared to one pre-treatment estimate. These results indicate that motile species are able to respond within seven days, whereas, longer treatment may be required to produce community wide responses.Author to whom correspondence should be addressed     

The distribution of short chain carboxylic acids in eutrophic drainage channels

The concentration of the C₂–C₅ carboxylic acids in the water column and sediment of shallow, eutrophic, drainage channels (Lewes Brooks, UK) were measured by gas chromatography. The concentrations of these acids were negatively correlated with dissolved oxygen. The highest concentrations of acetate (up to 200 M), propanoate (up to 38 M) and butanoate (up to 1.2 M) were measured during the summer in the water above the sediment, which became hypoxic during this period. Both acetate and propanoate concentrations declined at night. High concentrations of the acids were also recorded in reedbeds, which were also hypoxic. Only acetate was detected in the sediment pore water (up to 168 M). Its concentration declined during the autumn and winter and with increasing depth within the sediment.Author for Correspondence
