The future of coastal monitoring through satellite remote sensing
Authors: Vitousek Sean , Buscombe Daniel , Vos Kilian , Barnard Patrick , Ritchie Andy , Warrick Jonathan
Published: November 2022

Satellite remote sensing is transforming coastal science from a ‘data-poor’ field into a ‘data-rich’ field. Sandy beaches are dynamic landscapes that change in response to long-term pressures, short-term pulses, and anthropogenic interventions. Until recently, the rate and breadth of beach change has outpaced our ability to monitor those changes, due to the spatiotemporal limitations of our observational capacity. Over the past several decades, only a handful of beaches worldwide have been regularly monitored with accurate yet expensive in-situ surveys. The long-term coastal-change data of these few well-monitored beaches have led to in-depth understanding of many site-specific coastal processes. However, because the best-monitored beaches are not representative of all beaches, much remains unknown about the processes and fate of the other >99% of unmonitored beaches worldwide. The fleet of Earth-observing satellites has enabled multiscale monitoring of beaches, for the very first time, by providing imagery with global coverage and up to daily frequency. The long-standing and ever-expanding archive of satellite imagery will enable coastal scientists to investigate coastal change at sites vulnerable to future sea-level rise, i.e., (almost) everywhere. In the past decade, our capability to observe coastal change from space has grown substantially with computing and algorithmic power. Yet, further advances are needed in automating monitoring using machine learning, deep learning, and computer-vision to fully leverage this massive treasure-trove of data. Extensive monitoring and investigation of the causes and effects of coastal change at the requisite spatiotemporal scales will provide coastal managers with additional, valuable information to evaluate problems and solutions, addressing the potential for widespread beach loss due to accelerated sea-level rise, development, and reduced sediment supply. Monitoring from Earth-observing satellites is currently the only means of providing seamless data with high spatiotemporal resolution at the global scale of the impending impacts of climate change on coastal systems.
Darwinian versus Non-Darwinian Conceptions of Humanity
Authors: Gabora Liane
Published: November 2022

There is evidence that early life evolved through a simpler more haphazard form evolution than natural selection, involving not competitive exclusion but self-organization, novelty generation, and communal exchange. Darwinian evolution using a self-assembly instructions came about later (a few hundred million years or so) Cultural evolution does not involve a self-assembly code, and I have suggested that it is more akin to the earlier, simpler less constrained form of evolution. This paper explores the psychological consequences of (in my view, incorrectly) assuming a Darwinian 'survival of the fittest' perspective on humanity.
Electrophysiological evidence for a Whorfian double dissociation of categorical perception across two languages

Published: November 2022

Languages vary considerably in how they group objects into categories. For example, the word taza in Spanish can refer to either cup or mug in English, whereas glass can refer to either copa or vaso – two different types of glasses –, in Spanish. It is still debated whether such language distinctions cause differences in early perceptual processing between speakers of different languages. Here, for the first time, we test the effects of terminology on pre-attentive indices of categorical perception symmetrically across two languages. In a visual mismatch negativity (vMMN) paradigm, native speakers of English or Spanish were flashed with different exemplars from four object categories: cup, mug, copa, and vaso. We measured the vMMN elicited by language-dependent within- and cross-category changes in the peripheral visual field. Results showed significant vMMN modulations for categorical contrasts distinguished by participants’ native language, but not for objects grouped under the same label. P3a modulations showed the reverse pattern, with significant modulations only for those categorical contrast unmarked in the native language. These results provide the strongest evidence to date that native language labels influence categorical perception of objects at pre-attentive stages of perceptual encoding. In addition, they show that non-verbally encoded categorical dissociations also reorient attention but at a later stage and in a more controlled fashion. Therefore, we conclude that perceptual encoding is shaped by one’s language.
The timing of parental job loss and children's academic achievement
Authors: Jensen Simon Skovgaard
Published: November 2022

In this paper, I study if the effects of parental job loss on children’s academic achievement depend on the age of the child when the event occurs. Previous literature has primarily focused on single events, and I extend this literature by considering how the effect of job loss might depend on previous experience with job loss. The paper also contributes by highlighting the analytical challenge studies face when addressing the dynamic effects of parental job loss, particularly the role of time-varying confounders. I use data from the Danish administrative register data combined with a mandatory Danish language test in public schools conducted since 2010. The administrative register data enables me to observe parents’ employment history since 1980. I use results from the test in Year 2 (age 9) and Year 8 (age 15). The use of a measure of academic achievement in the early and late stages of compulsory education enables me to discern whether parental job loss, in general, has a short-term effect on child outcomes, or if there are specific periods in the child’s early life course that are particularly sensitive to parents losing their job. I find that proximity of parental job loss to the outcome is the factor with the greatest impact on the effect, and that the effect does not depend on previous experience with job loss. As such, the results do not provide evidence for periods such as early childhood or adolescence being particularly sensitive to parental job loss.
Multilingualism and Language Contact in Maithili: Trends, Traits and Impact in Sociolinguistic Spaces
Authors: Gautam Bhim Lal , Poudel Prem Prasad
Published: November 2022

This paper presents various trends, traits and impact of language contact in Maithili language spoken in the Kathmandu valley. The data were gathered through survey and key informant interviews with Maithili speakers and focused-language contact observations in the communities in various parts of the Kathmandu valley. Drawing on such data, this paper reports the expanding instances of language contact among the speakers of Maithili. It also illustrates causes and impacts of language contact in the rapidly emerging multilingual sociolinguistic spaces, especially in the Kathmandu valley. The findings showed that the Maithili native speakers living in Kathmandu had higher instances of language contact with Nepali and English, especially in the formal situations. Such practices were influenced and shaped by their ideological orientations towards globalization and willingness to attend to the emerging diverse contexts caused by the growing migration.

Authors: Shrestha A. L. , Adhikari G.
Published: November 2022

Background Mesenteric adenitis in children (≤ 18 years) can present with varied findings often causing a diagnostic confusion. In children, considering the inadequacies in history and physical examination, an accurate clinic-radiological diagnosis backed up with laboratory data as indicated becomes important to avoid misdiagnosis and futile interventions.

Objective To study the profile of children evaluated for acute abdominal pain and diagnosed as mesenteric adenitis.

Method A retrospective review of children with abdominal symptoms, diagnosed to have mesenteric adenitis between January 2018 and December 2020.

Result A total of 85 patients (63 males, 22 females) were identified presenting at mean age of 6 years (range 4 months-16 years). Primary Mesenteric Adenitis (PA) was found in 62, Secondary Mesenteric Adenitis (SA) in 11 and Complicated Primary Mesenteric Adenitis (CPA) was identified in 12. All with PA responded well to supportive care. Those with SA were treated for the primary cause and the ones with Complicated Primary Mesenteric Adenitis were managed by treating the complication. All had a favorable outcome.

Conclusion When managing a child with abdominal pain, mesenteric adenitis should be considered. Once clinically suspected, tailored management approach results in fruitful outcome.

Published: November 2022

Background Deep neck infections are severe infections in potential spaces and fascial planes of the neck. Despite antibiotic therapy, these infections continue to cause significant morbidity and mortality.

Objective To determine the clinical features, predisposing factors, socio demographic factors and complications associated with deep neck infections.

Method Prospective study conducted in the Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Kathmandu University Dhulikhel Hospital between March 2018 and June 2020. Seventy-five patients with deep neck infections were enrolled.

Result Submandibular abscess was most frequently observed (41.3%), followed by submental abscess (25.3%), parotid abscess(9.3%), ludwig’s angina (6.7%), posterior triangle of neck abscess (4%), retropharyngeal abscess (2.7%), parapharyngeal space abscess (2.7%), and multiple space infections (8%). Staphylococcus aureus was the most common organism (53.3%), followed by Beta hemolytic Streptococcus (12%) and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (12%). A negative culture was seen in 22.7%. Sixty-eight percent of patients underwent incision and drainage. Incision and drainage with dental extraction was done in 26.7%, four percent underwent incision and drainage with debridement and dental extraction, whereas 1.3% underwent incision and drainage with tracheostomy. Eight percent patients required Intensive care unit admission. Seven patients had descending mediastinitis, four out of which developed sepsis. When age and duration of hospital stay were correlated by using Pearson correlation coefficient, a remarkable correlation was observed (p=.020). Noteworthy relationship was not observed between different locations of deep neck infections and duration of hospital stay (p=.202).

Conclusion Early identification of deep neck infections is often challenging. Proper knowledge and extreme vigilance is necessary when dealing with these complex entities to avoid life-threatening complications.

Published: November 2022

Background Sense of coherence (SOC) is a core concept of salutogenesis which relates to individuals’ overall life orientation. Stronger SOC associates with better coping strategies, better health, and better quality of life. Although the SOC-questionnaire is validated in many cultures and languages, it has not, to date, been applied in Nepal.

Objective To determine and evaluate women’s SOC before and after a health education intervention.

Method This study was conducted as a part of the Heart-health Associated Research, Dissemination, and Intervention in the Community in the semi-urban Jhaukhel- Duwakot Health Demographic Surveillance Site in Nepal. Jhaukhel and Duwakot were selected as the control and intervention areas, respectively. Participants were women with children aged 1-7 years. Eight hundred and fifty-seven women before and 1,268 women after the health education intervention participated in the study. The statistical analysis was carried out with chi-square tests and one-way uni-variate ANOVA.

Result Women’s total SOC mean values at baseline were 51.1-57.4 and at follow up 54.4-54.9 in the intervention and control area, respectively. At baseline, SOC was significantly weaker in the intervention area compared to the control area (p < 0.001). At follow-up three months later, SOC was significantly stronger in the intervention area than in the control area (p < 0.001).

Conclusion Nepalese women had weaker SOC than women in high-income countries, but comparable to neighboring country India with similar cultural features. Empowerment of women through community participation and health education strengthened SOC. The SOC-13-questionnaire in its Nepali version is recommended to be further evaluated.

Published: November 2022

Since the Covid-19 pandemic hit the world, the lifestyle of Asia, especially Indonesia, underwent extraordinary changes at the beginning of 2020. On a national and global scale, the decline in activity and economic growth resulted in a decline in public demand, including products and services produced by MSMEs. . Apart from that, partners also have limitations in managing and classifying income and expenses in terms of financial records. Taking into account the global Covid-19 pandemic, Indonesia has disrupted daily life due to social distancing and government housing regulations, which have an impact on the MSME industry. The main challenge faced by MSMEs is declining demand. Compared to normal conditions, this also reduces the impact of limited MSME operations and direct consumer spending. MSMEs can achieve several things, such as utilizing e-commerce sales, improving service quality, digital marketing, and customer relationship marketing. Taking into account the situation mentioned in the previous section and the latest information provided by the Indonesian Central Statistics Agency regarding economic growth of -5.32% in the second quarter of 2020. For this reason, the proposer considers it necessary to conduct a study and implementation of the Community Partnership Program (PKM), especially in East Jakarta City area whose people are affected by the crisis during the pandemic. The most significant impact is that after being registered with an online food delivery service, there is an increase in sales from the usual 20 â€“ 30 percent per day.Â

Production and productivity of corn inoculated with Azospirillum brasilense fertilized with chicken bed
 
ABSTRACT: Appropriate forms of plant nutrition, combined with the use of microorganisms that promote plant growth, is important to achieve balance and sustainability in agriculture. In this work, the main effects on corn as a function of seed inoculation with A. brasilense associated with fertilization with chicken litter were studied. The work was carried out in the field, in two areas, with an experimental design in randomized blocks, in a 2x6 scheme. The first factor was inoculation with A. brasilense and control. The second factor was six doses of chicken litter, established by the fertilization recommendation, using 0, 50, 100, 150, 200, 250% of the recommended dose for each area. At 60 days after sowing, morphometric analyzes were performed, such as plant height and stem diameter, stem dry matter mass plus sheath and leaf. At stage R6, approximately 150 days after sowing, the mass of a thousand grains and yield were determined. Chicken litter positively influenced yield, height and basal stem diameter and shoot dry mass of corn. A. brasilense promoted the increase in leaf mass, positively influencing the mass of a thousand grains and maize yield.

Universities and knowledge transfer in the communication field. Letter
Authors: Genaut-Arratibel Aingeru , Suárez-Villegas Juan-Carlos , Cantalapiedra María-José
Published: November 2022

“What is the role of universities nowadays?” is one of the questions that those of us who work there should be asking ourselves. Knowledge transfer has emerged as academia’s third mission and must drive social change and development. Specifically, this paper aims to analyze knowledge transfer’s significance in the social sciences and, more specifically, in communication sciences, by looking at the call for the six-year academic research period on knowledge transfer in 2018 and taking into account what is happening in other disciplines. The contributions of the Spanish university community in terms of knowledge transfer fall behind other countries in our field. Only approximately 1% of international patents result from Spanish research. This disparity between these two realms demonstrates the need to promote knowledge transfer as the third helix of the triple helix of an interactive and dynamic university model in communication with institutions and social agents.

The study evaluated the water intake and organ weights of red sokoto goats fed different forms of neem (Azadirachta indica) leaves and concentrate diet. The experiment was carried out at the smal ruminant unit Teaching and Research Farm, Federal University of Kashere. Sixteen red sokoto goats (bucks) aged between 7 to 9 months with a weight range of 6.8 kg to 7.3 kg were allotted into four (4) treatments of four goats each. The goats were housed individually in pens. The goats were fed fresh neem leaves, neem leaves hay, neem leaves meal and neem leaves silage at 300g/goat/day for treatments 1, 2, 3 and 4 respectively; and concentrate diet at 125g/goat/day for a duration of sixty- three (63) days. Known volume of water was served and daily water intake was determined. The experimental design was a completely randomized design; data were analyzed using a one- way analysis of variance. The significant means were separated using Least Significant Difference contained in SAS 9.4 statistical packages, 2018 edition. The concentrate and the neem leaves were analyzed for their proximate composition using the method of AOAC (2000). The daily water intake values ranged from 286.87 – 392.95 ml and were significantly (P<0.05) different across the treatment means (significant between which Treatment 1 on one hand and Treatments 2, 3 and 4 on the other hand and both values increased with dry matter intake. All the organ weights values evaluated were not significantly(P>0.05) different across the treatment means. and which value, water intake/dry matter intake (2.70 – 3.87ml/g) values also showed significant (P<0.05 difference between The values for kidney ranged from 0.50 – 0.53 % while those for liver were 2.10 – 2.17 % It was concluded that the various forms of the neem leaves had no influence on the water intake of the goats, the different forms of neem leaves were not toxic to the goats afe he goats. Neem leaves can be used to feed goats during the long dry season. Further research should be carried out using other species of ruminants such as sheep and cattle.

Published: November 2022

Routinely, adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) curves that progress beyond 40° in skeletally immature adolescents require surgery. However, some adolescents with AIS and their parents utterly refuse surgery and insist on wearing a brace. Debate continues regarding the appropriateness of bracing for AIS curves exceeding 40° in patients who have rejected surgical intervention. This systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted to review the literature on the effectiveness of bracing and its predictive factors in largermagnitude AIS curves ≥40°. This study replicated the search strategy used by the PICOS system for formulating study questions, which include consideration of the patient/population (P), intervention (I), comparison (C), outcome (O), and study design (S). The search was conducted up to January 2022 in the following bibliographic online databases only in the English language: PubMed, Google Scholar, Scopus, and Web of Science. Two assessors reviewed the articles for qualification. Eligible studies were assessed for risk of bias at the study level using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. The effect size across the studies was determined using standardized mean differences (Cohen’s d) and 95% confidence intervals for the meta-analysis. Among the eight included moderate quality studies, evidence of potential publication bias (p <0.05) for the trials included was found in the Cobb angle outcome. Results obtained through meta-analysis indicated that the effectiveness of bracing in controlling Cobb angle progression in curves ≥40° is significantly positive. Additionally, initial curve severity, Risser stage, in-brace curve correction, curve type, and apical vertebral rotation were considered risk factors associated with brace effectiveness. This systematic review revealed that bracing could alter the normal course of AIS curves ≥40° in patients refusing posterior spinal fusion (PSF). However, the suggested course for patients refusing PSF remains unclear because of the significant heterogeneity in the risk factors associated with bracing failure.

Trolling as a Destructive Online Practice: Adolescents and Young People as Victims, Aggressors and Bystanders
Authors: Soldatova G.
Published: November 2022

Adolescents and young people, as active online users, face various forms of destructive online behavior, among which cyberaggression dominates. The widespread use of cyberaggression as a negative manifestation of digital sociality determines the interest of psychologists to study its various forms. Yet there is a lack of research on even the most common manifestations of online aggression, particularly trolling, which is an emotionally significant online practice for the younger generation. The aim is to identify the socio-psychological factors of adolescents and young people encountering trolling and to analyze, taking into account the role structure of this situation, the features of negative manifestations of digital sociality as a result of the experience of social interaction online. 1554 adolescents aged 12–17, 736 young people aged 18–30, and 1105 parents of adolescents aged 12–17 from 8 federal districts of Russia evaluated their experiences and possible reactions to trolling and also completed questionnaires measuring user activity, compliance with online and offline communication rules, Internet addiction, personality traits, tolerance, empathy, aggressiveness. Survey results reveal the role of trolling witness as the most common among adolescents and young adults, often underestimated by parents of adolescents. A higher risk of encountering trolling is typical for users with higher digital activity, especially for adolescents aged 12–13. The personal characteristics associated with trolling are less willingness to observe communication etiquette, less tolerance and conscientiousness, more aggressiveness and neuroticism. The choice of the “troll” role was associated with lower levels of agreeableness and tolerance and higher levels of aggressiveness, while the preference for an active prosocial role was associated with higher levels of empathy, tolerance, agreeableness and willingness to comply with online and offline communication.
Adaptation and Psychometric Properties of the Dark Tetrad Short Questionnaire
Authors: Kornienko D.
Published: November 2022

The research focuses on the Russian-language adaption of the Short Dark Tetrad questionnaire (SD4), which allows for the evaluation of four personality traits: machiavellianism, subclinical narcissism, psychopathy, and sadism. The questionnaire is a diagnostic tool for the Dark Tetrad model of personality characteristics, which is a refinement of the Dark Triad model. The study sample included 765 people between the ages of 18 and 25 (M = 19.97; SD = 1.87; 71.8% female), with 366 (47.84 %) taking part in the retest series. In addition to the SD4 questionnaire, respondents were given two questionnaires of the Dark Triad model, the Buss-Perry Aggression questionnaire and the Ten Item Personality Measure. The four-factor structure of the questionnaire was found to have appropriateness indices equivalent to those of the original SD4 questionnaire and other SD4 adaptations based on confirmatory analysis. The questionnaire's scales demonstrate adequate reliability, good convergent validity (when compared to questionnaires diagnosing machiavellian, narcissistic, and psychopathic characteristics), and divergent validity. The sadism scale revealed associations with aggressive characteristics (physical aggression, hostility, anger). The SD4 questionnaire scales showed that the responses were stable over time. Positive correlations between narcissism and extraversion were discovered, as were negative associations between Machiavellianism and agreeableness, openness to experience, and emotional stability, and psychopathy and sadism with agreeableness and conscientiousness. The results of psychometric testing of the Russian-language Short Questionnaire Dark Tetrad indicates its reliability and validity, as well as the possibilities of using it as a diagnostic tool.
Resistance to insecticides of housefly Musca domestica in the center of the European part of Russia
Authors: Davlianidze T. A. , Eremina* O. Y. , Olifer V. V.
Published: November 2022

Under laboratory conditions, resistance to insecticides from various chemical classes of several strains of the housefly, Musca domestica, obtained from populations collected at facilities in the Moscow and Kaluga regions (KSK-1 in a cowshed and KSK-2 in the stable of an equestrian sports club, Krasnogorsk – at a food facility, Kaluga – in the compost of a garden non-profit partnership). It was found that when insecticides were applied topically, houseflies of all the studied strains hadthe highest resistance to cypermethrin (RF=75–900x) and to neonicotinoid compounds thiamethoxam and clothianidin (RF=95–330x). High resistance to fipronil was found in two strains of fly (RF= 46–75x). Strain KSK-1 was weakly tolerant to chlorpyrifos (RF=3.7x), while the other strains were susceptible. All the studied house fly strains were more susceptible to indoxacarb and chlorfenapyr than the laboratory strain S-NIID. The data indicate that studied housefly strains are multiresistant to almost all commonly used insecticides. Possible mechanisms of insect resistance to insecticides are discussed. Frequent use of insecticides of various chemical classes led to resistance in the target pest. Widespread use of pyrethroids in animal facilities has led to high resistance to them in the house fly because places where larvae hatch are constantly polluted with these insecticides. High resistance to neonicotinoids is also due to their frequent use as poisoned baits in livestock facilities. To the contrary, the studied housefly strains remained susceptible to the tested oxadiazines and pyrroles, chemical classes that were recently introduced to Russia.

OBJECTIVE
To investigate the validity and reliability of the Birth Satisfaction Scale – Revised (BSS-R) and to adapt it into the Igbo language. 

MATERIALS AND METHODS
A cross-sectional study was done among 500 women who delivered at Alex Ekwueme Federal University Teaching hospital Abakaliki between 1st March 2019 and 31st August 2019. The BSS-R questionnaire was used for data collection in the postnatal ward. Data obtained were analyzed using SPSS version 20. The properties of the scale were tested by conducting reliability and validation analyses. The level of significance is a P-value of <0.05. 

RESULTS
The mean age of the women was 28.8±4.7 years; the majority (230, 46.0%) were between the age group of 30 – 40 years. Three-fifth of the study participant had formal education. The majority (460, 92.0%) were multipara and had delivered mostly (326, 65.2%) at Full Term. Three Component loading was identified in the Scale. Examination of the pattern matrix showed three components/themes: support by staff during labour (I felt well supported by staff during my labour and birth (r = 0.875); parturient confidence during labour (I felt out of control during my birth experience (r = 0.714) and distraught during labour (I was not distressed at all during labour (r = 0.821). Communality value (r2) mostly ranged between 0.507 and 0.801. The scale had a Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of 0.62. This increased to 0.70 following the removal of “I was not distressed at all during labour” responses from the analysis. 

CONCLUSION
The Igbo version of BSS-R has good internal consistency. It is a valid and reliable scale to be employed in assessing maternal satisfaction among Igbo-speaking women in the study area and Nigeria in general.

Artikel ini adalah kajian sosiolinguistik tentang bahasa dan gender. Penelitian ini muncul karena penulis melihat adanya perbedaan gaya bahasa yang digunakan para demonstran laki-laki dan perempuan dalam aksi protes RUU KUHP dan pengesahan UU KPK beberapa waktu lalu. Hal ini karena pada dasarnya perempuan dan laki-laki memiliki gaya berbahasa yang berbeda. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui perbedaan antara bahasa yang digunakan oleh laki-laki dan perempuan dalam menyuarakan pemikirannya. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah kualitatif deskriptif. Data yang dianalisis adalah tulisan yang tertera di papan atau poster yang dipegang para demonstran. Teknik pengumpulan data yang digunakan adalah purposive sampling. Hasil dari penelitian menunjukkan bahwa bahasa yang digunakan laki-laki lebih mengacu kepada hal yang bersfiat praktek dan aplikatif sedangkan perempuan lebih berorientasi pada perasaan dan feminin.
The Manosphere as an Online Protection Racket: How the Red Pill Monetizes Male Need for Security in Modern Society
Authors: Bujalka Eva , Rich Tim , Bender Stuart
Published: November 2022

To effectively manage, empathize with and respond to the implications and impact of the so-called ‘Manosphere,’ this paper is centered on the premise that researchers require an understanding of the draw factors that lead individuals to engage, affiliate with, and contribute to the various groups that constitute this wider movement. This paper seeks to contribute to the growing body of knowledge around the Manosphere by exploring how thought leaders propagate symbiotic cycles of ontological security and insecurity through YouTube in a manner that resembles a protection racket. It argues that these constructed ontological security cycles provide a powerful impetus to not only draw individuals into the Manosphere, but also to extract material and social resources out of them that can be reinvited to retain them within the movement.

In this research, I would like to examine the evolution and milestones of this scientific field.
Laser interferometric measurement of machine tools
Authors: Rónai László , Lénárt József
Published: November 2022

This paper deals with a positioning accuracy measurement on a machine tool to perform calibration. The principle of laser interferometric measurement is introduced, a Renishaw XL-80 laser interferometer is applied to perform measurements. The method-ology of using the system is presented through a practical measurement. The deviations in certain positions are determined, thus the pitch error table of the machine tool can be re-freshed. Thereafter a test running is performed in order to check the accuracy of the ma-chining centre.

Succession and benthic community development in the sublittoral zone at the recent volcanic island, Surtsey, southern Iceland
Authors: Gunnarsson Karl , Hauksson Erlingur
Published: November 2022

The island Surtsey was formed south of Iceland during an eruption that lasted form 1963 to 1967. The settlement of marine benthic organisms has been monitored at the island from the beginning. First with visits every year but after 1971 with some years between each visit. Since 1984 standard photographs have been shot of the hard substrate in the sublittoral to monitor species composition, cover and density. Data collected 1997 are presented here. In the shallower part of the sublittoral, algae are dominant. Below 15 m depth the cover and density of animals increases and at 30 m algae have disapeared. at the eastern coast the substrate seems more stable than elsewhere along the coast. Multivariate analysis shows two separate communities. a community with a mixture of Mytilus edulis, hydrozoans, Alaria esculenta and Polysiphonia stricta, primarily found where the substrate is unstable, and a community with Laminaria hyperborea, deep water red algae, sponges and Alcyonium digitatum on the more stable substrate.
Developments in plant colonization and succession on Surtsey during 1999–2008
Authors: Magnússon Borgthór , Magnússon Sigurdur H. , Fridriksson Sturla
Published: November 2022

Plant immigration on Surtsey continued during 1999–2008 and 69 vascular plant species had colonized the island by 2008. That year 63 species were recorded, of which 32 had formed viable populations. Birds were considered the main agents of seed dispersal to the island, having dispersed 75% of the species, while 16% were wind dispersed and 9% by sea from 1965. Plant succession was studied in permanent plots. Barren areas were starkly distinct from a gull colony area affected by breeding seagulls from 1985. Average breeding density by plots within the gull colony was 4 nests 1000 m-2 during 2003–2008. Species richness, plant cover and biomass remained low in the barrens. Here two communities, a Honckenya peploides community on tephra sand and a gravel flats community with Silene uniflora as the indicator species, had developed. Carbon and nitrogen content of soil in barrens was very low and pH relatively high. By 2008, plant species richness in the gull colony was considerably higher than in the barrens and average plant cover and biomass was from 10 to 40 times greater. Soil within the colony area had a relatively high C and N content, and pH was lower than in the barren area. Two forb-rich grassland communities had developed within the colony. on lava, a Puccinellia distans/ Sagina procumbens community composed mainly of ruderal species, and a community with the perennial grasses Poa pratensis, Leymus arenarius and Festuca richardsonii as dominants on sand and lava. With the closing of the grassland sward, species richness had declined, reflecting developing dominance. in 2008 the forb-rich grassland of the gull colony had expanded to about 10 ha in area. it had become a foundation of an abundant invertebrate life and a small community of land birds developing on the island from 1996. Seabirds (primarily gulls) have become increasingly important in shaping and driving the ecosystem development on Surtsey through their nutrient transfer from sea to land and by dispersal of seeds to the island. Puffins have recently started breeding on the island and they are expected to affect further development of the ecosystem.
Ecosystem carbon fluxes of Leymus arenarius and Honckenya peploides on Surtsey in relation to water availability: a pilot study
Authors: Sigurdsson Bjarni D.
Published: November 2022

Large parts of Surtsey are covered by sparse plant communities, with Honckenya peploides and Leymus arenarius as the key species. The objective of the present pilot study was to investigate ecosystem fluxes of moist and dry areas covered by those two species. Light saturated gross photosynthesis (GPP), expressed on soil surface area basis, was 45% higher in L. arenarius at dry sites, but similar for both species at moist sites. This may indicate that L. arenarius is better adapted to habitats with low water availability. When carbon fluxes were compared at moist and dry conditions across both species, it was clear that both ecosystem respiration and GPP were much higher at the moist site. This may indicate that periodic water stress due to low water holding capacity of the young volcanic ash may be an important limiting factor for biological activity on Surtsey, in addition to the low nutrient availability.
