Spatial distribution of Antarctic copepods in Fíldes Bay during summer of 2012
The Antarctic Chilean peninsula, is characterized for being stable in its oceanographic conditions. Nevertheless, its coastal zones, such as bays, may have more variable physical conditions, both spatially and temporally. It has been observed that a remarkable interaction between the oceanographic conditions and spatial distribution patterns of zooplankton occurs. However, there is no good unde...
متن کاملVertical distribution patterns of copepods, chlorophyll, and production in northeastern Baffin Bay
High resolution vertical distributions of chlorophyll and zooplankton were collected with an instrumented Batfish vehicle in northeastern Baffin Bay. The dominant copepod species wc1.e Calanusfinmllrchicus, Calanus glncinlis, and Calanus hyperlporeus V and VI. Copepod layers consisting of C. jkmclr-chicus and C. glncialis were commonly situated ~3-4 m above the chlorophyll maximum in a depth re...
متن کاملHorizontal and vertical distribution of estrogenic activities in sediments and waters from Tokyo Bay, Japan.
Endocrine-disrupting chemicals with estrogenic activity (e.g., alkylphenols) have been detected in coastal Japan. We aimed to determine estrogenic activity in extracts of river water, seawater, sediments, and sediment cores from Tokyo Bay by in vitro gene expression assay. Fifty-one of 57 extracts had some estrogenic activity. E2 equivalents (ng E2 equivalents per gram dry weight or per liter a...
متن کاملEvolution of bioluminescence in marine planktonic copepods.
Copepods are the dominant taxa in zooplankton communities of the ocean worldwide. Although bioluminescence of certain copepods has been known for more than a 100 years, there is very limited information about the structure and evolutionary history of copepod luciferase genes. Here, we report the cDNA sequences of 11 copepod luciferases isolated from the superfamily Augaptiloidea in the order Ca...
متن کاملSpatial distribution and vertical profile of polybrominated diphenyl ethers and hexabromocyclododecanes in sediment core from Tokyo Bay, Japan.
Brominated flame retardants (BFRs), hexabromocyclododecanes (HBCDs) and polybrominated diethyl ethers (PBDEs) were detected in three sediment cores and six surface sediments of Tokyo Bay, Japan. HBCDs were detected for the first time in this region with concentrations ranging from 0.056 to 2.3 ng/g dry wt, implying their widespread contamination, even though their concentrations were lower than...
