When the larval stage is finished, the underyearlings of sandfish appear in the trawl catches since July. Depth of their catches by bottom trawl in July-August is 23–60 m, under the temperature of 8–16 о С. Localization of the catches at the upper benthic front corresponds to their pelagic spreading with concentration on the seasonal thermo-pycnocline, so the belts of high catches by bottom trawl are located along the line of the thermocline contact with the bottom. They convert to bottom dwelling in fall season, being concentrated below the benthic front and shifting deeper gradually with the front. The adults dwell at the bottom, permanently in the subsurface waters. Their feeding starts near the coast in May-June when they aggregate below the upper benthic front, avoiding the remnants of the cold Bottom Shelf water mass. Under thickening of the warm surface layer in July-September, they retreat deeper and spread widely at the shelf bottom within the area occupied by the Subsurface Shelf water. Pre-spawning aggregations of adult sandfish are formed at the shelf edge and upper continental slope in October, whereas the non-spawning fish stay in this month on the shelf together with the underyearlings. The adults migrate to the coastal zone in November for spawning on seaweeds. The southern part of the bay is presumably more favorable for the spawning of sandfish, as the underyearlings are absent in its northern part in summer. The sandfish adults wintering is available outside the bay, so the southward migration is supposed in late autumn and the backward migration in spring.","PeriodicalId":491504,"journal":{"name":"Известия Тихоокеанского научно-исследовательского рыбохозяйственного центра","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136113218","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These secondary raw materials are massively disposed (released into the sea) after separation of limbs. Routine technologies of the biodiesel production from vegetable and fish oils are used.

A high content of PUFAs (42.5 %) is detected, including the omega-3 (30.6 %) and omega-6 (12.3 %) fatty acids. High acid number (5.5 mg KOH per g fat) and peroxide number (85.6 mmol of active oxygen per g fat) of the crab fat do not meet the requirements for edible fish oils. The biodiesel in the form of fatty acid ethyl esters was produced from the crab fat with three indicators (NaOH, KOH, and H2SO4).

The best yield of esters was obtained in the experiment with sulfuric acid: 52.2 g of biodiesel was produced from 50.0 g of fat.

Depending on salinity, density of the mixture can be higher (at low salinity) or lower (at high salinity) than the arithmetic mean density of the two components, so an effect of compaction during mixing (cabbeling) is observed in the upper part of halocline with lower salinity, whereas an effect of decompaction during mixing (anticabbeling) occurs in its lower part with higher salinity. The salinity value at the point of cabbeling change to anticabbeling is calculated that depends on average temperature of the mixed waters. In the real halocline (estuary of the Razdolnaya/Suifen River flowing into Peter the Great Bay, Japan Sea), the highest vertical gradient of salinity is observed along the isohaline, which value changes depending on temperature. In summer, when the water temperature in the estuary is about 22 oC, the maximum gradient is observed at the isohaline 10 psu, while in winter, when the temperature drops to 1 oC, the maximum gradient shifts to the isohaline 18 psu. These isohaline values correspond to the salinity values for the point of cabbeling change to anticabbeling. The cabbeling effect above this level promotes sinking of water, but the anticabbeling effect below this level promotes rising of water. This encountering convergent motion is an additional mechanism of the halocline self-sustaining in sharp state.","PeriodicalId":491504,"journal":{"name":"Известия Тихоокеанского научно-исследовательского рыбохозяйственного центра","volume":"47 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136063993","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Good ecological state of the bay waters was detected. Stable density stratification was already formed, with the water temperature range from 2.3oС at the bottom to 10.0oС on the sea surface and salinity from 33.6 to 31.1, respectively. Dissolved oxygen content was high in the bottom layer (9.6–10.8 mg/L). In the surface layer, the oxygen content was lower, as well as chlorophyll a concentration. Abundance of the colony-forming heterotrophic microorganisms was rather low, so the waters of the bay were characterized as oligosaprobic and pure that indicated accumulation of easily accessible organic matter (accumulation predominated over destruction), apparently due to development of production processes. Some exceptions with zero balance between the production and destruction were found in the Trud Inlet, in the inlet of Sports Club, and at Podnozhye village. Bacteria of the sanitary-indicative group were recorded in small quantities at two stations where they indicated biological and fecal pollution of the water. Microorganisms growing on media with crude oil were observed everywhere, although their number was not high, so the waters of the Novik Bay were identified as low-polluted, in general. However, high abundance of phenol-resistant microorganisms at most of the stations was a signal of significant pollution by phenols, that could have both natural and anthropogenic sources. Metal-resistant microorganisms were not abundant in the surface layer that showed the minimal level of technogenic pressure. Their dominant group was Ni-resistant heterotrophs associated with combustion of hydrocarbon fuel.","PeriodicalId":491504,"journal":{"name":"Известия Тихоокеанского научно-исследовательского рыбохозяйственного центра","volume":"245 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136062851","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Series of annual mean fields of the mixed layer temperature in December-March were decomposed by applying the empirical orthogonal function (EOF); dynamics of the first two components of decomposition (described in sum 50.4 % of the initial fields variability) are analyzed. The first component (32.4 % of variation) indicates synchronous oscillations over the entire sea area with the maximum contribution at the continental slope. The second component (18.0 % of variance) reflects opposite oscillations in two vast regions of the sea located along the continental slope from Cape Navarin to Alaska Peninsula and in the western, central and southern parts of the deep basin. The following statistically significant periodic oscillations are revealed by spectral analysis: quasi-biennial and those with periods of 4, 7, and 17–20 year for the 1st EOF and quasi-biennial and those with periods of 3 and 4 year for the 2nd EOF. A statistically significant linear trend to warming is detected for the time coefficient of the 1st EOF in the period of 1958–2022. Approximation of this coefficient dynamics with 6-degree polynomial function (polynomial trend) shows a tendencies to the mixed layer cooling in winters of 1969–1972 and 1992–2004 but the opposite tendencies to warming in 1973–1991 and 2005–2022. Variations of time coefficient for the 2nd EOF correspond to opposite tendencies in the areas with positive and negative values of this EOF.
