    Description: Sustainable expansion of global aquaculture depends on a thorough understanding of environmental impacts. Open-water culture operations produce waste food and faeces, the benthic impacts of which are a focus of regulation. Seabed interactions of wastes are complex, depending on current velocity, seabed substrate and waste material characteristics. The accuracy achieved in modelling intensity and spatial extent of impacts is contingent upon the representation of this interaction and its implications for resuspension. We used benthic flumes to study resuspension processes at 11 salmon aquaculture sites, covering a range of sediment types. Erosion rates and critical entrainment stress were computed at the cage edge and between 100 and 500 m away, characterising seabed erodibility in highly impacted and less impacted sediments. Heavily impacted cage-edge sediments had an erosion threshold (mean 0.02 N m-2) that was an order of magnitude lower, and markedly less heterogeneous, than that of nearby less impacted sediments (mean across sites 0.19 N m-2). This likely reflects a seabed which was smothered by waste material close to the depositional centre. Further out, the covering of waste material is less continuous, thinner, and more admixed with underlying sediments. Bed erosion rates were found to be a linear function of excess stress. The results provide important information on how benthic flumes can be deployed to collect spatial and temporal data for parameterisation of erosion and entrainment processes in numerical waste transport simulation models such as DEPOMOD, and the comparatively large field-based dataset should contribute to the goal of allowing a more realistic representation of particulate waste in these models.

    Notes: Abstract The reproductive ecology of Pavona gigantea Verrill and Gardineroseris planulata (Dana) was investigated in the equatorial eastern Pacific region from 1985 to 1994. These zooxanthellate scleractinian corals were adversely affected in this region during the 1982–1983 El Niño warming event. Both species were hermaphroditic, with individual colonies showing sequential cosexual development, thus resulting in dominantly outbreeding reproduction. Sexuality was mixed, with high percentages of gonochoric and hermaphroditic colonies in both species. Approximately 1:1 male-to-female gonad ratios were found in gonochoric and hermaphroditic colonies combined. Broadcast spawning was observed in P. gigantea in the Galápagos Islands, and the sudden disappearance of mature gametes and the presence of spent gonads suggest that G. planulata is also a broadcast spawner. Colonies of both species with ≲200 cm2 (10 cm diam) live tissue were nonreproductive. Estimated ages of the youngest reproductive colonies were 11 yr for P. gigantea and 20 yr for G. planulata. The percentage of all colonies of P. gigantea with gonads at nonupwelling sites (Caño Istand, Costa Rica and Uva Island, Panamá) ranged from 37 to 47%, respectively; colonies with gonads from upwelling environments (Saboga and Taboga Islands, Panamá) ranged from 31 to 39%, respectively, and reproductively active colonies from the thermally variable Galápagos islands comprised 40% of the collections. Compared with P. gigantea, the numbers of sexually active G. planulata colonies were roughly onehalf at nonupwelling Caño Island (20%) and Uva Island (25%) sites, or less (10%) at the upwelling Saboga Island site. Peak reproductive activity in P. gigantea occurred during the rainy season at all study sites. In the nonupwelling Costa Rican (Caño Island) and Panamainan (Uva Island) sites, mean monthly sea-surface temperatures (SSTs) were high (28 to 29°C), but slightly lower than in the dry season (29°C). In the upwelling Gulf of Panamá (Saboga and Taboga Islands), reproduction occurred after mean monthly SSTs increased from 24 to 28–29°C. In the Galápagos Islands, reproductive activity peaked during sea warming, when mean monthly SSTs reached 25°C. Sexually active colonies of G. planulata, present only at the main collection sites of Caño and Uva Islands, were also observed during the wet season. The presence of mature or spawned gonalds in both species mostly around new and full lunar phases suggests that spawning is at least weakly synchronized with moon phase. Fecundity estimates disclosed the following nonsignificant differences between sites for P. gigantea, expressed as egg production cm-2 colony surface surface yr-1: Galápagos (10 300 to 30 800), Uva Island (4900 to 9800), Caño Island (1800 to 7400), Saboga Island (600 to 1300) Taboga Island (1200 to 2400). Fecundity estimates for G. planulata were considerably lower: Uva Island (700 to 1400), Caño Island (500 to 1000). The sexual recruitment of P. gigantea into El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) 1982–1983-disturbed, equatorial eastern Pacific coral communities has been low, with only moderate recovery evident since 1983. G. planulata has revealed no sexual recruitment where seed populations are absent or rare (Caño Island, Galápagos Islands), and only low recruitment (Panamá) in areas with colonies that survived the ENSO disturbance.

    Notes: Two lots of three canned dry bean types were treated as follows: no blanch, two water, and two steam blanch methods (cooled or not cooled after blanching) in order to assess treatment effect on quality attributes after 1 day and 1 mo storage. Storage times did not affect drained weights, but the not blanched and not cooled samples were significantly higher in drained weights than the samples cooled after blanching. The blanch method and post-blanch treatment had significant effects, which varied between bean types, on drained weight, shear values and percent split beans, but not on moisture content. The lot had a significant effect on all quality attributes.

    Notes: Sediment traps collected significant quantities of waste solids beneath marine fish cages at a fish farm site in Greece. Diver observation and the absence of dissolved hydrogen sulphide in the water overlying sediments revealed low benthic impacts despite the very low current speeds measured. An acoustic bottom discrimination system, ground-truthed by conventional remote photography, further confirmed the apparently low benthic impact at this site. These results may be explained partly by the large number of fish present around the cages feeding on farm wastes.

    Notes: There would appear to be considerable potential for Arctic charr, Salvelinus alpinus (L.), to be cultured in marine conditions in countries where coastal winter salinity is below oceanic, and temperatures remain above freezing. Sea lochs on the west coast of Scotland represent one such environment where freshwater run-off leads to depressed salinities (20-30 practical salinity units) and the North Atlantic Drift leads to winter sea water temperatures typically around 6-8oC.

    Notes: The production of fine roots is one of the principal means by which carbon, fixed during photosynthesis, enters the soil, and quantifying the production for particular combinations of environmental and biotic factors is important for predicting the sequestration of carbon in the soils of grassland ecosystems. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) can have a major effect on the production of roots, and we studied how colonization by AMF affects the lifespan of roots. Twenty per cent of control roots of Trifolium repens survived for longer than 42 days whereas 37% survived that long in AMF-colonized plants. The overall survival of the roots of Lolium perenne was less than in T. repens: around 10% of roots survived beyond 42 days and this was not affected by AMF colonization. Previous studies have shown that lifespans of roots can be affected by temperature. We tested the hypothesis that these observations are linked to a change in the morphology of the root system caused by temperature and also by AMF. We found that inoculation with AMF in a microcosm study using Plantago lanceolata grown at various temperatures, with and without AMF, showed no clear effect of AMF on branching patterns. Temperature had a significant effect on total lengths, numbers and branching rates of some higher orders of roots. Total lengths of both secondary and tertiary roots grown at 27°C were about double those of plants grown at 15°C. Colonization by AMF tended to reduce this effect. Evidently the effect of colonization by AMF on root lifespan depends on the species. Increased branching, and thus a greater proportion of ephemeral roots, was responsible for shortening the lives of the roots at increased temperature, which suggests a strong link between lifespan and morphology.

    Notes: An assessment of the effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) infection on photosynthesis, carbon (C) allocation, translocation and biomass production of cucumber, grown in sand culture, was made using a previously determined phosphorus (P) supply (0·13 mol m−3 P) which had a significant impact on AM infection. Separation of a direct effect of AM infection from an indirect one due to an enhanced leaf P status was achieved using a comparable non-mycorrhizal treatment (NAM + P) supplemented with extra P (0·19 mol m−3 P). Total leaf P concentration, specific leaf mass, photosynthetic capacity, and incorporation of 14C into non-structural carbohydrate pools were dependent on leaf age. Both maximum and ambient photosynthetic rates were significantly higher in the youngest fully expanded leaves from AM and NAM + P plants which also had the higher leaf P concentrations. There were no differences in the total concentrations of starch, sucrose, raffinose or stachyose in young or old leaves among AM, non-mycorrhizal (NAM) and NAM + P treatments. However, younger leaves of NAM plants showed a shift in 14C-partitioning from stachyose and raffinose synthesis to starch accumulation. Determination of ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase (AGPase), sucrose synthase and sucrose phosphate synthase enzyme activities revealed that only AGPase activity was correlated with the increased incorporation rate of 14C into starch in young leaves of NAM plants. Although there were significant AM-specific effects on C translocation to the root system, AM plants had similar rate of photosynthesis to NAM + P plants. These results suggest that the increase in photosynthetic rate in leaves of AM-infected cucumber was due to an increased P status, rather than a consequence of a mycorrhizal ‘sink’ for assimilates.
