Abstract:

The aim of this project was to determine whether otolith trace dement chemistry can be used [Q track migrations in fully marine fish. This question was addressed through a semi-controlled experiment where Irish Sea and North Sea plaice (Pleurononectes platessa) were maintained in a monitored environment. The relationships between water, blood and otolith chemistry were assessed and with reference to environmental and physiological variables and through comparisons of otolith trace clement chemistry in wild plaice tagged by data storage tags (DST).

Abstract:

Like many native endemic desert freshwater fish species, the June Sucker (Chasmistes liorus) is currently listed as endangered. Managers have increasingly turned to habitat restoration as a key component to recovery plans. For endangered species, one of the primary outcomes of habitat restoration is that it should result in successful reproduction and recruitment of individuals into the adult population. Confirmation of natural recruitment as a function of habitat restoration can only be achieved by establishing natal origins. Recent research has proven the validity of otolith microchemistry,

Abstract:

North Sea cod (Gadus morhua) are a commercially important species and have been subject to substantial fishing pressure. This has resulted in significant population declines, and a requirement for management strategies to facilitate the recovery of the stock. Environmental variation may influence fish in a number of ways including spatial ribufion, growth performance and recruitment. This study aims to assess variations in phenology of North Sea cod otolith zone formation with ambient water temperatures. Links with somatic growth and metabolism are explored and implications discussed.

Abstract:

The koi carp Cyprinus carpio is an invasive fish that has reached high numbers and biomass in the North Island of New Zealand, particularly in the Waikato region. This species has a variety of negative effects on aquatic ecosystems, increasing turbidity, uprooting aquatic macrophytes, and affecting water column nutrient levels. Recent research in Australia and New Zealand has shown that adult carp, though largely restricted to small scale movements, are capable of moving long distances. Movement in adult carp may be underestimated by these studies, and comparatively little is known about the m

Abstract:

Knowledge of fish habitat use and connectivity is critical for understanding the structure and dynamics of fish populations and, therefore, necessary for the implementation of successful fisheries management strategies. Tagging is an effective means of providing such information, and the elemental composition contained within fish otoliths is increasingly being used as a natural tag. The chemical composition of otoliths reflects the incorporation of elements from different water bodies and can thus be used to understand the habitat use, movements, and life history patterns of fishes.

Abstract:

The Antarctic silverfish (Pleuragramma antarctica) is a keystone species in the continental shelf waters around the Antarctic, performing an essential role of connecting higher and lower trophic levels in the Southern Ocean ecosystem. Its early life history is dependent on the platelet ice layer found below sea ice, thus intimately intertwining its fate with that of sea ice extent. Antarctic silverfish belong to the family Nototheniidae, part of the Notothenioidei suborder whose species radiation in the Southern Ocean 24 million years ago is one of the most expansive among teleost fish.

Abstract:

Fish otoliths are calcium carbonate aggregates in the membranous labyrinth of all teleost fishes. The deposition of these structures is affected by both physiological and environmental factors which can cause changes in both the rate of otolith depositon and in the composition of the material deposited. The rate of otolith deposition, particularly in regard to the alternation of calcium carbonate-rich and protein-rich zones, has been widely investigated in an attempt to understand processes of ageing and growth in fishes. Aspects of the chemistry of these structures, particularly trace

A maximum otolith increment width (OIW) and sharp decreasing in otolith Sr/Ca ratios resulting from glycosaminoglycan (GAGs) broken–down were observed during metamorphosis.

Abstract:

Recent advances in otolith microchemistry have established that trace element composition can be used to chemically reconstruct fish life history and serve as a stock identification tool. In modern fisheries practices, these two applications are especially pertinent to wild salmon populations, which are difficult to track over large spatial scales and nearly impossible to identify in mixed populations. This project has applied a novel method using laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) to anadromous sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) otoliths from four separ

Environmental variability affects the physiology of marine ectotherms, causing changes to metabolic rate, locomotion and growth. Species that move between habitats with different temperature and salinity for spawning purposes may experience significant changes in their growth rate and physiology compared to those that live in stable environments. Ectotherms have a temperature and salinity range at which growth and survival are optimal. Although, ectotherms are capable of tolerating a range of temperatures and salinities, moving from optimal to extreme ranges can affect oxygen consumption, loco

Abstract:

Otolith microchemistry can be very useful in identifying fish populations and reconstructing fish movements. Recent attempts have been made to evaluate otoliths as proxies of ambient transition metal levels, but findings have been inconsistent, varying by metal, species, and experimental method. Some of the difficulty with obtaining definitive answers stems from an incomplete understanding of the biological controls governing transition metal speciation in otoliths. Metals may be incorporated into the calcium carbonate crystal structure, trapped in crystalline interstitial spaces, or associate
