Aims This project assessed changes in key water quality constituents entering the lake following the fires. Methods Weekly and annual loads were estimated for 5 years post-fire at Jingellic (Murray River) and Tallandoon (Mitta Mitta River) and compared with historical loads. Results No fire-related water quality effects were observed at Tallandoon; this was likely to be due to Lake Dartmouth (an upstream storage) buffering poor-quality runoff. At Jingellic, sediment loads remained elevated for at least 5 years, peaking at ~600,000 Mg year−1, which is 15 times the long-term average. Nutrient loads (total phoshorus, total Kjeldahl nitrogen, nitrogen oxides) were up to 3 times higher than normal for 3 years. By contrast, soluble reactive phosphorus and salt impacts lasted only weeks to months. Conclusions These findings highlight that fire impacts on water quality vary depending on constituent type and location in the landscape. Implications Fire impacts on water quality can last for a long time, so studies looking at the impacts should be appropriately designed and resourced, with careful consideration of sampling locations.","PeriodicalId":18209,"journal":{"name":"Marine and Freshwater Research","volume":"76 17","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-11-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://connectsci.au/mf/article-pdf/doi/10.1071/MF25110/1823974/mf25110.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147899135","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Aims We tested Fourier transform–near-infrared (FT-NIR) spectroscopy as a rapid method (~1.0 v. ~60 min per otolith for microscopic methods) to determine daily age of walleye pollock (pollock; Gadus chalcogrammus), which supports an important fishery. Methods We reared two annual cohorts of pollock over 3 years to accrue a comprehensive dataset for calibration models. Key results FT-NIR spectroscopy provided an improvement over predicting daily age from otolith weight, fish weight or fish length. A calibration model developed using microscopically aged fish had a root mean square error (RMSE) from cross validation (CV) of 12.2 days. Models developed from the full dataset with ages assigned from cohort hatch dates had a test dataset RMSE of 35.4–40.7 days and a CV RMSE of 29.4–36.9 days. Conclusions Spectra were affected by size-at-age, which could affect model efficacy because growth and size are influenced by environmental variability. This can be addressed with robust calibration datasets, model testing and model updating.

MethodsWe examined stomachs from 8229 skipjack (Katsuwonus pelamis), yellowfin (Thunnus albacares) and bigeye tuna (T. obesus) captured in the western and central Pacific Ocean between 2001 and 2021, classified each on the basis of categorical and continuous fullness metrics, then built statistical models to gauge covariate effects. Key resultsOnly models for the binary fullness metric (i.e. empty or non-empty) performed well. Tuna with empty stomachs were more likely to be caught on active gear (e.g. purse seine) and earlier in the day. Skipjack and bigeye tuna with empty stomachs were more likely to be associated with floating objects (e.g. fish-aggregating devices). ConclusionsOur results add to the evidence that tropical tunas forage more effectively during the day and more actively when not associated with floating objects. At the individual level, tuna stomach fullness is highly variable.

AimsIn this study, we characterise conditions of pools on the floodplain and pools in the main channel of the Fitzroy River, north-western Australia. MethodsWe used linear models to investigate the spatial and temporal dynamics of top–down and bottom–up forces acting on phytoplankton and zooplankton. Key resultsFloodplain pools showed considerable heterogeneity compared with the main channel and were shallow and turbid with high nutrient loads, whereas main-channel pools were deep, clear and nutrient-limited. Phytoplankton and zooplankton biomass (mass per unit volume) were considerably greater and more variable in floodplain pools than in the main channel, where both were largely absent. On the floodplain, bottom–up processes drove water-column productivity (e.g. nutrients to phytoplankton to zooplankton) to a degree not observed in the main channel, providing a valuable resource pathway supporting consumer populations locally and catchment wide. We detected no top–down effects in floodplain pools and no top–down or bottom–up effects in the main channel. ConclusionMaintaining flows that inundate the floodplain and promote habitat heterogeneity in the Fitzroy River is crucial for preserving local and landscape-scale ecosystem functioning.

MethodsDiver-operated stereo-video systems filmed 25-m transects along the length of the jetty, and a remotely operated vehicle stereo-video filmed 25-m transects in nearby reef, seagrass and sand habitats. Fish at all habitats were counted, identified and measured. ResultsFish assemblages at the defined inshore, mid-shore and offshore zones of the jetty differed significantly, whereas the number of fish, species diversity and biomass increased with distance from shore. There was no measurable effect of protection within the small sanctuary zone at the end of the jetty. Fish assemblages at the jetty differed from those in all three natural habitats, and the number of fish, species diversity and biomass were highest at the natural reef, followed by the jetty, the seagrass and the sand habitats. ConclusionsThe Busselton Jetty supports a distinctive fish assemblage, high species diversity and a variety of benthic communities. Changes in the fish assemblages were attributed to differences in habitat type, complexity, depth and distance from shore.

By contrast, P. sanguinolentus were not affected by ENSO events. The low catch rates for P. sanguinolentus in normal years and for C. feriatus and P. pelagicus in normal and El Niño years were highly consistent with the significant shrinkage of the habitat suitability index.

AimTo investigate how the presence and morphological complexity of macrophytes drives the increase in beta diversity of periphytic algae and whether environmental filters have direct effects on periphytic algae. MethodsPeriphytic algae were collected from macrophyte stands quarterly in the Jazigo reservoir, north-eastern Brazil. Alpha and beta diversity were measured between the different structural complexities of macrophytes. Key resultsAlpha and beta diversity, and turnover of periphytic algae were higher in macrophytes of higher complexity (Pontederia crassipes and Ludwigia helminthorrhiza) and nestedness was higher in macrophytes of lower complexity (Cyperus articulatus). Beta diversity was driven primarily by physical and chemical variables. Dissolved inorganic nitrogen, macrophyte complexity, temperature, macroinvertebrates, light and dissolved oxygen explained the beta diversity of periphytic algae. ConclusionsThese results suggest that environmental filters and the structural complexity of macrophytes are determinants for the increase in alpha and beta diversity of periphytic algae. Macrophytes with greater morphological complexity favour increased availability of niches and microhabitats, and greater diversity of periphytic algae.
