The adsorption characteristics of brown algae Sargassum myriocystum for Zn2+ ions uptake from metal solutions was investigated. Among various algal pretreatment HCl was found to be the best and was characterized with various methods for example BET, DSC-TGA, proximate and composition analysis, and Point of zero charges. Experiments were performed and adsorption reaches equilibrium at 60 min at pH 5.5 and adsorbate dose decreased when increasing metal concentration 50 g/l and 200 mg/l, respectively. Maximum adsorption efficiencies of Zn2+ ions take place at temperature 30°C and 0.5 g of algae biomass was found to be optimal, with an agitation speed of 150 rpm. Our results suggest that HCl-treated adsorbent could be used as a more effective adsorbent than untreated S. myriocystum for the uptake of Zn2+ from metal solution. Kinetics study was performed for evaluating the sorption kinetics and the obtained data fit best to the pseudo-second-order model for zinc ion when compared with all other given models. It was observed that the Freundlich isotherm showed a good fit to the equilibrium sorption data and shows the highest correlation coefficient values (R 2 > 0.90) for zinc, whereas in Van’t Hoff plots a positive value of ΔH°, a negative value of the free energy (ΔG°) and a positive value of ΔS o showed increased randomness at the solid/solution interface as well as the process being feasible and spontaneous by plotting 1/T vs ln Kc .","PeriodicalId":18195,"journal":{"name":"Marine Biology Research","volume":"19 1","pages":"121 - 131"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2023-03-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45919627","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Some benthic animals are capable of active self-dispersal following shallow corridors between islands. Identifying and characterizing the biota in such corridors is fundamental for biogeographic studies and the delimitation of priority sites to conserve biodiversity. The Scotia Arc provides an example of such passages, being a system of islands and underwater ridges connecting the Magellan Region to the Antarctic Peninsula and South Shetland Islands (Maritime Antarctic). Specimens of the free-living flatworm Orthoplana bregazzii Karling 1973 (Proseriata, Otoplanidae) were obtained in King George Island (South Shetland Islands). This is the first report of the family Otoplanidae from Antarctica, and the first rediscovery of the species 50 years after its original description. The present article provides a complete description of the Antarctic material of O. bregazzii, complements its original description, and provides an identification key to the species of Orthoplana. We analyze the distribution of the genus and species and argue that the range expansion reported here could be the result of a recent, successful colonization event.

It is based on 543 bycatches from 2017–2021, and 35 ROV dives from 2016-2017. Bycatches were used to indicate distribution and relative abundance of the VME key species while ROV observations provided information on colony densities, associated fauna and damages. Four sea pen species were recorded. Funiculina quadrangularis and Kophobelemnon stelliferum were widely distributed and most abundant below 200 meters. The few records of Pennatula phosphorea were mainly from shallower than 100 meters, and the rare Balticina finmarchica primarily occurred below 200 meters. The ROV videos confirmed the pattern from the bycatches, however, colony densities were much higher, and the sea pen Virgularia mirabilis recorded in high abundances was not present in bycatches. The coral garden key species Isidella lofotensis, endemic to Norway, had a restricted area of occurrence confirmed by both methodologies. The restricted distribution makes it particularly vulnerable. Fishing activities overlap with the VMEs distribution and the observations of sea pen skeletons and the coral predatory anemone Ptychodactis patula are indicative of pressure from bottom trawl fishing. KEY POLICY HIGHLIGHTS ‘Sea pen and burrowing megafauna’ is a widely distributed VME in Skagerrak and the Norwegian trench, an area with intense bottom trawling. Recorded sea pen species show different distribution patterns, and vulnerability should be evaluated at species level. There is an immediate need for protection of the VME ‘Coral Garden’ represented by the bamboo coral Isidella lofotensis and mapping and monitoring is necessary to evaluate ecological status. Trawl bycatches provide valuable information on VMEs, but the precision on position and abundance of colonies is low compared with visual mapping, and trawling is a threat to the VMEs.","PeriodicalId":18195,"journal":{"name":"Marine Biology Research","volume":"19 1","pages":"191 - 206"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2023-03-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48175500","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Cymodocea nodosa (Ucria) Ascherson is a warm-temperate seagrass, distributed along the entire Mediterranean and the adjacent Atlantic Ocean. As with many seagrasses, this species shows an annual (seasonal) pattern in canopy vitality, with maximums in leaf canopy structure (e.g. shoot density and leaf length) in spring-summer, while canopy leaf structure is reduced in winter. Since this seagrass experiences varying environmental (e.g. thermal) scenarios across its distribution range, we tested whether annual (seasonal) variation in the leaf canopy structure, in terms of shoot density, leaf length and above-ground biomass, are modulated by local environmental (here, thermal) variation. Annual variation in the shoot density of C. nodosa across its distribution range was not predicted by local environmental regimes (thermal regimes, in terms of variation in sea surface temperature, SST). However, annual variation in leaf length and biomass was significantly predicted by variation in local thermal regimes. A larger annual environmental variation, here in terms of SST, was connected with a more marked seasonal variation in leaf canopy structure, both in terms of leaf length and biomass. If a major effect of climate change is an increase in environmental variation, an increase in the annual leaf canopy variation for C. nodosa meadows along its distribution range might be expected.","PeriodicalId":18195,"journal":{"name":"Marine Biology Research","volume":"19 1","pages":"132 - 140"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2023-03-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46604726","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study is based on samples collected during the monthly trawl surveys conducted between January 2017 to November 2020 in the Northeast Mediterranean. The annual gonadal development cycle was estimated by observing the Gonadosomatic Index changes. Seasonal patterns in energy intake and allocation were acquired from Hepatosomatic, Digestosomatic, and Relative Body Condition indices. The results indicated that the species has prolonged gonadal development periods, during which spawning occurs twice, in early summer and at the onset of the winter. A comparison of all indices involved indicated that the species feeds and develops gonads at the same time before summer spawning, feeds heavily and stores energy during the warmest period, and uses the stored energy in the winter spawning. As these features do not differ much from their congenerics inhabiting the geography they originated from, it is suggested that it was not the ecological plasticity of the species that is the basis of their success but the reproductive traits they have fitted well to the Mediterranean Ecosystem.","PeriodicalId":18195,"journal":{"name":"Marine Biology Research","volume":"19 1","pages":"13 - 24"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2023-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46221835","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
