    Notes: Abstract The physical environment has an important influence on the size composition of primary producers in plankton communities. This effect is transmitted through the trophic structure by size selective feeding processes at each level. A pictorial representation of trophic organization in pelagic ecosystems is presented which illustrates the complex involvement of individual species in the food web and the dynamic nature of ecosystem development along alternate pathways.

    Notes: Abstract In “The Structure of Marine Ecosystems” (1974), Steele developed a simulation model which suggested that the stability of planktonic communities was dependent on a threshold response allowing phytoplankton a refuge in concentration below which herbivorous zooplankton did not feed. Observations from the North Sea were presented to support this hypothesis. In order to more realistically represent the simulated herbivores, Calanus spp., several of Steele's assumptions have been modified. The results of the revised model indicate that feeding thresholds are not essential for the long-term realism and stability of the simulated system and suggest an alternative, ecosystem control through predation.

    Notes: Abstract Feeding rates, patterns of prey selection, and starvation tolerance were investigated for adult males and females of the cyclopoid copepod Corycaeus anglicus collected from the waters of Friday Harbor, Washington, USA. Selection by C. anglicus was determined largely by prey body-size, but was also affected by species and developmental stage. Small developmental stages of all prey species were fed upon at relatively low rates. The small calanoid species Acartia clausii was increasingly vulnerable to predation by C. anglicus as it progressed through successive developmental stages. Larger prey species, Pseudocalanus sp. and Calanus pacificus, were more vulnerable in intermediate stages, the C3 and N6 stages, respectively. Larger and smaller prey were characteristically attacked at different sites on their bodies; however, attack sites fell within a similar range of body widths, 130 to 170 μm. Males of Corycaeus anglicus killed a maximum of 1.4 prey d-1 when feeding on the optimally-sized adult females of Acartia clausii, which are approximately equivalent to its own body length. Males fed at approximately double the rates of females. Despite its small size and apparent lack of metabolic stores, this cyclopoid is highly tolerant of starvation conditions. Median survival time without food is at least 2 wk for both males and females. In its predatory behavior, C. anglicus employs an ambush-type strategy and seems to be adapted for infrequent encounters with relatively large prey.

    Notes: Abstract The planktonic marine copepodCalanus pacificus exhibits an enhanced feeding rate, or hunger response, when exposed to food following short periods of starvation. In a scries of laboratory experiments with copepods collected from the main basin of Puget Sound, Washington, during 1982 and 1984, we measured maximum ingestion rate, assimilation efficiency, and digestive enzyme activity to determine the time scales over which the feeding behavior ofC. pacificus responds to increases in food. These laboratory results were then compared to field studies of diel fluctuations in digestive enzymes and gut fluorescence ofC. pacificus in Dabod Bay, a fjord of Puget Sound, during September, 1980, and the closely relatedC. marshallae off the Washington coast, in August, 1981. Laboratory experiments demonstrated that the hunger response ofC. pacificus lasts approximately 6 h before ingestion rate returns to a steady state level of about one-half maximum. On the order of 12h of starvation were required to induce the maximum ingestion rate of the hunger response. Digestive enzyme activities did not change over these time scales. Assimilation efficiency peaked within a few hours of the onset of feeding, with low initial rates possibly related to the period of starvation prior to feeding. These results were consistent with diel patterns observed in the field. The hunger response ofC. pacificus appears to be controlled by processes within the gut, and our results are discussed in relation to recent studies of the digestive processes of calanoid copepods.

    Notes: Abstract Egg production by Undinula vulgaris, collected off Kaneohe Bay, Hawaii, was measured under field and laboratory conditions on 16 occasions from June to December 1991. In situ rates ranged from 0 to 15.7 eggs female-1 d-1, with a mean of 6.4 eggs female-1 d-1, 2.1% female body carbon d-1. Maximum in situ production was 53 eggs female-1 d-1, 17.2% C d-1. Average egg production (Y, eggs female-1 d-1) was related to the concentration of particulate carbon (X, μg C l-1) by the Ivlev function, Y=13.9[1-e-0.0097 (x-10)], with R 2=0.96. Individuals with the same feeding history produced more eggs at lower temperatures in the laboratory. Egg production was not significantly correlated with dry weight, and no noticeable temporal trend was found. Despite the elevated habitat temperatures (26 to 27°C) of this subtropical copepod, maximum fecundity of U. vulgaris was comparable to, but average rates were lower than, egg production rates of similarly-sized, temperate and borcal species of the genus Calanus. Our results caution against broad extrapolations of the temperature-growth relationship for temperate coastal copepods to species from poorly studied, oligotrophic regions of the oceans.

    Notes: Forced Rayleigh scattering, a relatively recently developed optical technique, is used to measure tracer diffusion coefficients in polymer-solvent mixtures near the system glass transition temperature, Tg. The technique has a wider range of potential application than has yet been realized, and so is presented in some detail. The objectives were to obtain data necessary to scrutinize free volume theory, and to understand so-called anomalous, non-Fickian diffusion effects observed by others in polymer-solvent mixtures near Tg. Data on dye tracer diffusion coefficients in the systems polyvinyl acetate-toluene, polystyrene-toluene, and polystyrene-tri-m-tolyl phosphate were obtained over a polymer concentration range from infinite dilution to 96 wt. %. Small molecule diffusion coefficients are seen to vary by as much as nine orders of magnitude (10-14 to 10-5 cm2/s) over this concentration range. The data are in reasonable accord with expectations based on the Duda-Vrentas version of free-volume theory.

    Notes: The effect of polymer structure on blend miscibility with polyvinylphenol (PVPh) has been studied for at least one polymer from a variety of polymer classes with potential hydrogen-bond accepting groups: polyesters (aliphatic and aromatic), polycarbonates, polyimides, polyamides, polysulfones, polyurethanes, polyethers, polysiloxanes, poly(amideimides), and cellulose esters. Many of the polyesters, polyamides, and cellulose esters showed evidence of interaction and miscibility with PVPh. In most of the other cases, there was no sign of miscibility. Generally good correlation exists between thermal behavior and infrared spectral data. Where there is significant interaction seen between the polymers by FTIR, substantial miscibility is seen by DSC analysis. In some cases, the phase behavior depended on the blend preparation scheme. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
