Abundance of copepods during POLARSTERN cruise ANT-XXI/2 (BENDIX)

The main emphasis of this study was to analyse the short-term development of abundance, population structure and vertical distribution of the dominant calanoid copepods during a phytoplankton bloom in the coastal area of the eastern Weddell Sea in December 2003. Microcalanus pygmaeus was by far the most abundant calanoid species. Metridia gerlachei, Ctenocalanus citer, Calanoides acutus, Calanus propinquus and the ice-associated Stephos longipes were also present in considerable proportions. The observed changes in the population characteristics and parameters of these species are described in detail and discussed in the context of the spring phytoplankton bloom. A conspicuous event occurring during the final stage of the study was the development of a strong storm. While the results suggest that this storm did not have any considerable influence on the populations of all other investigated copepod species, it very likely caused pronounced changes in the S. longipes population present in the water column. Before the storm, S. longipes was found primarily in the upper 100 m of the water column, and its population was dominated by adults (mean proportion = 41%) and the copepodite stage I (mean proportion = 30%). After the storm, the abundance increased considerably, and the copepodite stage I contributed by far the largest proportion (53%) of the total population indicating that the early copepodite stages probably had been released from the sea ice into the under ice water layer due to ice break-up and ice melt processes caused by the storm.

Tér és teljesség - Fenntarthatóság a területhasználatban és az építési tevékenységben

A cikk a fenntarthatóság témakörét a területhasználatra és az építési tevékenységre fókuszálva járja körül. Noha kész receptekkel nem szolgál, természet, társadalom és gazdaság egészlátó (integrált) szemlélete alapján néhány radikális, normalitást célzó – főként ökológiai gazdaságtani – szempontot fogalmaz meg, amelyekkel egy fenntarthatóbb rendszert alakíthatunk ki. Mivel az írást a fenntarthatóság kérdésköre ihlette, a természeti környezettel kapcsolatos megfontolások a kidolgozottabbak, s csak esetlegesen (ám elválaszthatatlanul) kapcsolódnak hozzájuk a társadalmi vonatkozások. A tanulmányból mindenesetre – implicit módon – így is kitűnik, hogy a fenntarthatóság eszméje (amely elsősorban a természeti korlátokból fakad) nem mond ellent a társadalmi-emberi kiteljesedésnek, azaz a közjónak, ha az embert és a társadalmat a maga teljességében szemléljük, s nem valamilyen torz és leegyszerűsítő (például a homo oeconomicus) ideológia alapján. A cikkben a radikális javaslatokat kevésbé radikális – környezetgazdasági – nézetek ellenpontozzák, mintegy érzékeltetve a problémakör és a megközelítésmódok rendkívüli összetettségét.

Physical oceanography from the northwestern Weddell Sea

We analyzed hydrographic data from the northwestern Weddell Sea continental shelf of the three austral winters 1989, 1997, and 2006 and two summers following the last winter cruise. During summer a thermal front exists at ~64° S separating cold southern waters from warm northern waters that have similar characteristics as the deep waters of the central basin of the Bransfield Strait. In winter, the whole continental shelf exhibits southern characteristics with high Neon (Ne) concentrations, indicating a significant input of glacial melt water. The comparison of the winter data from the shallow shelf off the tip of the Antarctic Peninsula, spanning a period of 17 yr, shows a salinity decrease of 0.09 for the whole water column, which has a residence time of <1 yr. We interpret this freshening as being caused by a combination of reduced salt input due to a southward sea ice retreat and higher precipitation during the late 20th century on the western Weddell Sea continental shelf. However, less salinification might also result from a delicate interplay between enhanced salt input due to sea ice formation in coastal areas formerly occupied by Larsen A and B ice shelves and increased Larsen C ice loss.
