The habitat experienced during early life-history stages can determine the number and quality of individuals that recruit
to adult populations. In a field experiment, biogenic habitat complexity was manipulated (presence or absence of foliose macroalgae)
at two depths (2–3 m and 5–6 m) and the habitat-dependent effects on recruitment of the black foot abalone (Haliotis iris) were examined at three field sites along the south coast of Wellington, New Zealand (41°20′S, 174°47′E), between July and
November 2005. Recruit density (<5 weeks post-settlement) was measured on cobbles covered with crustose coralline algae. Habitats
of low complexity (barrens treatments) had consistently greater densities of recruits than habitats of high complexity (algae
treatments). However, recruits in algae habitats were larger, and for deep habitats, there was greater survival in algae habitats
compared with barrens habitats. While depth had no significant effect on early recruit (<2 weeks post-settlement) density,
late recruit (<5 weeks post-settlement) density was greater in shallow habitats, and so it seems recruit survival was greater
in shallow habitats. In this experiment, algal habitat complexity had strong effects on early recruit abundance, but habitat-dependent
variations in recruit growth and survival may modify initial patterns of abundance and determine recruitment to adult abalone
populations. 相似文献

The academic literature on climate change communications is growing. However, the majority of this literature focuses on the issue of climate change mitigation in a developed country context, and there is little published material regarding communication in a developing country and adaptation context. Similarly, despite community-based approaches to climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction increasing in the Pacific Islands region, there is very limited guidance on how to effectively communicate climate change in a way that enhances people’s resilience. This paper documents the experiences of organisations, including local and international non-government and faith-based organisations, governments, regional technical organisations and donor agencies in communicating climate change for adaptation in the Pacific region. Three key climate change communication challenges are highlighted and suggestions made for overcoming them based on results from interviews, a focus group discussion and an online forum. Finally, recommendations are made for good practice guidance in climate change communication that is empowering and culturally relevant. 相似文献

Carbon cycling analysis is presented as a means for assessing anthropogenic perturbations in an ecosystem. Data from oligotrophic, eutrophic, and dystrophic (bog) lakes are used to show general trends in the lacustrine carbon cycle. The oligotrophic lake is an unstressed system and the eutrophic lake is under nutrient enrichment with high algal standing crops and productivity. The bog lake is a pH-stressed environment that is primarily a grazing ecosystem. It is hoped that a more effective environmental impact assessment will result from the use of carbon cycling as a unifying concept in ecosystem analysis. 相似文献
