    Description: Carbohydrates on parasite surfaces have been shown to play an important role in host–parasite coevolution, mediating host non-self recognition and parasite camouflage. Parasites that switch hosts can change their surface molecules to remain undetected by the diverse immune systems of their different hosts. However, the question of individual variation in surface sugar composition and its relation to infectivity, virulence, immune evasion and growth of a parasite in its different hosts is as yet largely unexplored. We studied such fitness consequences of variation in surface sugars in a sympatric host–parasite system consisting of the cestode Schistocephalus solidus and its intermediate hosts, a copepod and the three-spined stickleback. Using lectins to analyse the sugar composition, we show that the tapeworm changes its surface according to the invertebrate or vertebrate host. Importantly, sugar composition seems to be genetically variable, as shown by differences among tapeworm sibships. These differences are related to variation in parasite fitness in its second intermediate host, i.e. infectivity and growth. Surface sugar composition may thus be a proximate correlate of the evolutionarily relevant variability in infectivity and virulence of parasites in different hosts.

    Description: The Hawaiian–Emperor Seamount chain records the motion of the Pacific Plate relative to the Hawaiian mantle hotspot for ~80 m.y. A notable feature of the chain is the pronounced bend at its middle. This bend had been widely credited to a change in plate motion, but recent research suggests a change in hotspot motion as an alternative. Existing paleomagnetic data from the Emperor Chain suggest that the hotspot moved south during the Late Cretaceous and Early Tertiary, but reached its current latitude by the age of the bend. Thus, data from area of the bend are important for understanding changes in plume latitude. In this study, we analyze the magnetic anomalies of five seamounts (Annei, Daikakuji-W, Daikakuji- E, Abbott, and Colahan) in the region of the bend. These particular seamounts were chosen because they have been recently surveyed to collect multibeam bathymetry and magnetic data positioned with GPS navigation. Inversions of the magnetic and bathymetric data were performed to determine the mean magnetization of each seamount and from these results, paleomagnetic poles and paleolatitudes were calculated. Three of the five seamounts have reversed magnetic polarities (two are normal) and four contain a small volume of magnetic polarity opposite to the main body, consistent with formation during the Early Cenozoic, a time of geomagnetic field reversals. Although magnetization inhomogene ties can degrade the accuracy of paleomagnetic poles calculated from such models, the seamounts give results consistent with one another and with other Pacific paleomagnetic data of approximately the same age. Seamount paleolatitudes range from 13.7 to 23.7, with an average of 19.4F7.4 (2j). These values are indistinguishable from the present-day paleolatitude of the Hawaiian hotspot. Together with other paleomagnetic and geologic evidence, these data imply that the Hawaiian hotspot has moved little in latitude during the past ~45 m.y.

    Description: The South Aegean Active Volcanic Arc consists of a chain of five volcanic centers, the most active of which is the Santorini Volcano. A local radio-linked seismological network is installed on the island consisting of five permanent and four temporary stations. The temporary stations have been in operation periodically during the period 1994–1996 and two of them were installed on adjacent islands. All stations are equipped with vertical-component short period seismometers. During the period 1994–2002 a significant number of earthquakes has been recorded, with local (duration) magnitudes, MD, up to 5.0 and focal depths varying between 0 km and 35 km. Two clusters of epicenters have been located in the broader area of the Santorini Volcano. The first cluster is located in the caldera of the volcano and is associated with the volcanic process in the Kameni Island. The second (larger) cluster is located near the northern edge of the Santorini Island at the Kolumbo Reef and is connected with the volcanic process at this reef. These clusters can be appropriately associated with the two main tectonic features (faults) in the area under study. The first one (N60°E direction) corresponds to the continuation of the Amorgos fault in the area, while the secondary tectonic line (EW direction) is probably related with the southern edge of a submarine graben, which is located between the islands Amorgos and Santorini. Using the data set of the best-located earthquakes, recorded during the period 1994–2002, an attempt has been made to derive an appropriate equivalent 1 –D earth model for the area under study, in order to improve the accuracy of the determined hypocenters, as well as to obtain a preliminary knowledge of the volcano structure.

    Description: We derive an estimate for the chemical composition of the depleted MORB mantle (DMM), the source reservoir to mid-ocean ridge basalts (MORBs), which represents at least 30% the mass of the whole silicate Earth. A database for the chemical and physical properties of abyssal peridotites has become robust and complete enough to truly access a reference DMM. Using trace element depletion trends from the abyssal peridotites, it is possible to construct a large part of DMM’s trace element pattern. Splicing this information with isotopic constraints (Sr–Nd–Pb–Hf) and canonical ratios (Ce/Pb, Nb/Ta, Nb/U, Ba/Rb, H2O/Ce, CO2/Nb and Cl/K), we can extend abundance estimates to all the incompatible elements including volatile content. The resulting trace element pattern for average DMM constrains parental MORB to be generated by 6% aggregated fractional melting, consistent with recent models for hydrous melting of the mantle [P.D. Asimow, J.E. Dixon, C.H. Langmuir, A hydrous melting and fractionation model for mid-ocean ridge basalts: application to the Mid-Atlantic Ridge near the Azores, Geochem. Geophys. Geosyst. 5 (2004) 10.1029/2003GC000568]. We show that DMM is roughly balanced by the continental crust and better balanced upon inclusion of ocean island basalt source and oceanic crust components. Compared to the primitive mantle, DMM has been depleted by 2–3% melt extraction and has only 15% the radiogenic heat production.

    Description: Scattered groups of these ancient fish may all stem from a single remote population. Coelacanths were discovered in the Comoros archipelago to the northwest of Madagascar in 1952. Since then, these rare, ancient fish have been found to the south off Mozambique, Madagascar and South Africa, and to the north off Kenya and Tanzania — but it was unclear whether these are separate populations or even subspecies. Here we show that the genetic variation between individuals from these different locations is unexpectedly low. Combined with earlier results from submersible and oceanographic observations1, 2, our findings indicate that a separate African metapopulation is unlikely to have existed and that locations distant from the Comoros were probably inhabited relatively recently by either dead-end drifters or founders that originated in the Comoros.

    Description: Carbonates recovered from anoxic waters between 235 and 1555 m depth in the northwestern Black Sea were analyzed for lipid biomarkers and stable carbon isotopic compositions. In addition, a methane-seep-related microbial mat and a sample of surface sediment recovered from a non-seep site were studied for comparison. High concentrations of strongly 13C-depleted lipids attributed to bacteria and archaea mediating the anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) were found in all samples except for the sediment. Differences of the dominant AOM-performing communities between the carbonates indicated by specific lipid patterns appear to be caused by the respective biogeochemical settings. High proportions of ANME-2 consortia are found at sites of assumingly high partial pressures of methane while ANME-1 associations dominate at locations of moderate methane supply. In the sedimentary concretion, a complex mixture of biomarkers for terrestrial and planktonic organisms was found. Different molecular structures along with strong variations in the stable carbon isotopic compositions (δ13C = − 20.2‰ to − 94.3‰) allow for an estimation of the proportions of tetraether-bound biphytanes derived from planktonic Crenarchaeota and methanotrophic Euryarchaeota. Our data imply that the shape of AOM-derived carbonate precipitates in Black Sea environments is crucially influenced by the respective methane supply. Active AOM-driven chimney-like bioherms, similar to those previously observed on the Ukrainian shelf, might also develop in the deep euxinic zone at 1555 m water depths.

    Description: Calcium isotope fractionation was measured on skeletal aragonite and calcite from different marine biota and on inorganic calcite. Precipitation temperatures ranged from 0 to 28°C. Calcium isotope fractionation shows a temperature dependence in accordance with previous observations: 1000 · ln(αcc) = −1.4 + 0.021 · T (°C) for calcite and 1000 · ln(αar) = −1.9 + 0.017 · T (°C) for aragonite. Within uncertainty the temperature slopes are identical for the two polymorphs. However, at all temperatures calcium isotopes are more fractionated in aragonite than in calcite. The offset in δ44/40Ca is about 0.6‰. The underlying mechanism for this offset may be related to the different coordination numbers and bond strengths of the calcium ions in calcite and aragonite crystals, or to different Ca reaction behavior at the solid-liquid interface. Recently, the observed temperature dependence of the Ca isotope fractionation was explained quantitatively by the temperature control on precipitation rates of calcium carbonates in an experimental setting (Lemarchand et al., 2004). We show that this mechanism can in principle also be applied to CaCO3 precipitation in natural environments in normal marine settings. Following this model, Ca isotope fractionation in marine Ca carbonates is primarily controlled by precipitation rates. On the other hand the larger Ca isotope fractionation of aragonite compared to calcite can not be explained by different precipitation rates. The rate control model of Ca isotope fractionation predicts a strong dependence of the Ca isotopic composition of carbonates on ambient CO32− concentration. While this model is in general accordance with our observations in marine carbonates, cultured specimens of the planktic foraminifer Orbulina universa show no dependence of Ca-isotope fractionation on the ambient CO32− concentration. The latter observation implies that the carbonate chemistry in the calcifying vesicles of the foraminifer is independent from the ambient carbonate ion concentration of the surrounding water.
