title: Composition and vertical distribution of zooplankton at the Great Meteor Seamount, subtropical NE Atlantic
Creators: name: Martin, Bettina
Publisher: name: ASC 2002 - M - Theme session
Year: 2024
Subjects: Ecosystem observation, processes and dynamics

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.During an expedition with R. V. Meteor in September 1998 zooplankton was caught at 11 stations over the plateau and on the slope of the Great Meteor Seamount, using a Longhurst-Hardy Plankton Recorder [LHPR]. During 6 of the LHPR employments sound scattering layers and zooplankton migration were observed with the ship’s 33 kHz echo sounder. Abundance, composition and vertical distribution of zooplankton groups at the seamount were described. Additionally the abundance of copepod exuvia was determined. The comparison between the region over the plateau and adjacent deeper waters showed no differences in zooplankton biomass, but higher biomass and a slightly different composition of zooplankton groups were found on the upstream side of the seamount compared to its downstream side. Strongly vertically migrating plankton groups like euphausiids and copepods of the genus Pleuromamma were found in high abundances at daytime close to the bottom of the plateau. While acoustic observations in the upper 200m correspond to the biomass data of the hauls, the deeper sound scattering layers were apparently not formed by the organisms caught with the LHPR. An exception was the daytime station above the bottom of the plateau where a distinct scattering layer as well as a high biomass were found. The abundance of exuvia was higher on the seamount than in its vicinity. This can be explained by the ‘Meteor Seamount Model’, which was developed by oceanographers within the same project (Beckmann & Mohn in press). The model describes an up to ten times higher retention for passive particles than for vertically migrating ones in the Taylor column over the summit. The distribution of zooplankton in the vicinity of the Great Meteor Seamount is probably influenced by both predation of those groups that are trapped by the summit floor during their downward migration at dawn and the flow regime initiated by the irregular bottom topography.

description: A version of Gromov's cup product lemma in which one factor is the (1,0)-part of the differential of a continuous plurisubharmonic function is obtained. As an application, it is shown that a connected noncompact complete Kaehler manifold that has exactly one end and admits a continuous plurisubharmonic function that is strictly plurisubharmonic along some germ of a 2-dimensional complex analytic set at some point has the Bochner-Hartogs property; that is, the first compactly supported cohomology with values in the structure sheaf vanishes.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.The genus Zenopsis Gill 1862 consists of three species. Zenopsis conchifer occurs in the Atlantic and Indian Oceans whereas Zenopsis nebulosus has a wide distribution in the (Indo-) Pacific Ocean. Zenopsis oblongus, described in 1989, is closely related to Z. nebulosus and only known from the Nazca Ridge in the SE Pacific. Feeding studies are reviewed for all three species. At the Great Meteor Seamount (GMR) (NE Atlantic), Z. conchifer shows a shift in prey selectivity with ontogenetic development. Smaller specimens (<46 cm TL) preyed on constituents of the sound scattering layer (SSL) (myctophids, stomiids). Diet of larger specimens (>52 cm) predominantly consisted of bentho-pelagic Macroramphosus spp., which was the most abundant fish species on that seamount. A similar ontogenetic shift was observed for Z. conchifer on the Namibian shelf. However, prey for the larger specimens consisted mainly of the pelagic species Trachurus trachurus and Synagrops microlepis. In the Pacific, Z. nebulosus (oblongus) obtains a similar trophic position with regard to migrating components of the SSL. However, though being also very abundant at the Nazca-Ridge seamounts, no Macroramphosus spp. were eaten. Large specimens of Z. nebulosus were found to prey on bentho-pelagic rockfishes (Sebastidae). Zenopsis spp. appears to be an off-bottom pelagic predator with preference for mesopelagic food components in all areas considered. It is suggested that larger specimens abandon the off-bottom pelagic feeding mode and that body size thus determines the capabilities of Zenopsis spp. to prey on bentho-pelagic species.

description: We study the coarsening of strongly microphase separated membrane domains in the presence of recycling of material. We study the dynamics of the domain size distribution under both scale-free and size-dependent recycling. Closed form solutions to the steady state distributions and its associated central moments are obtained in both cases. Moreover, for the size-independent case, the~time evolution of the moments is analytically calculated, which provide us with exact results for their corresponding relaxation times. Since these moments and relaxation times are measurable quantities, the biophysically significant free parameters in our model may be determined by comparison with experimental data.

description: We present a generalization of the Debye-Hückel free-energy-density functional of simple fluids to the case of two-component systems with arbitrary interaction potentials. It allows one to obtain the two-component Debye-Hückel integral equations through its minimization with respect to the pair correlation functions, leads to the correct form of the internal energy density, and fulfills the virial theorem. It is based on our previous idea, proposed for the one-component Debye-Hückel approach, and which was published recently \cite{Piron16}. We use the Debye-Kirkwood charging method in the same way as in \cite{Piron16}, in order to build an expression of the free-energy density functional. Main properties of the two-component Debye-Hückel free energy are presented and discussed, including the virial theorem in the case of long-range interaction potentials.

Subjects: Ecosystem observation, processes and dynamics

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.This qualitative study is part of an interdisciplinary analysis of the ecology of the Great Meteor Seamount and it will answer the basic questions of composition and origin of the invertebrate faunal community. During the cruise M42/3 in the subtropical north Atlantic to the 'Great Meteor Bank' in 1998 a variety of benthic sampling gear was employed on 48 stations. Only the macrobenthic invertebrates were part of this study. In total 155 species from 18 different major invertebrate taxa have been identified. For 66 of these species it was the first record on the Seamount, 19 had already been known, nine of the species are endemic on the Bank. Six species are entirely new to science. The dominating North-East-Atlantic faunal elements (64%), the low number of African elements (30%) and of endemic species (6%) contradict the general acceptance that the seamount's ecology is determined by a faunal community which evolved through isolation. Vagile, as well as sessile life forms, filter feeders, suspension feeders, carnivores and grazer were found at an approximately equal ratio. This hints at a food supply that does not support any kind of specialists. The reason for this faunal community is the location of the seamount in the North Atlantic subtropical gyre and in the center of the drain of the Mediterranean water, as well as the presence of other islands and seamounts in that region. The water masses continuously transport invertebrate larvae from the shelf sea either directly, or indirectly - over the seamounts and islands - to the bank. These larvae colonize the seamount und build up a stable population.

description: Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) is a positive single-stranded RNA virus belonging to the Pestivirus genus of the Flaviviridae family. BVDV has a wide host range that includes most ruminants. Noncytopathic (ncp) BVDV may establish lifelong persistent infections in calves following infection of the fetus between 40 and 120 days of gestation. Cytopathic (cp) BVDV strains arise from ncp strains via mutations. The most common cp mutations are insertions of RNA derived from either host or a duplication of viral sequences into the region of the genome coding for the NS2/3 protein. Superinfection of a persistently infected animal with a cp virus can give rise to mucosal disease (MD), a condition that is invariably fatal.

description: Nanostars (NSTs) are spiky nanocrystals with plasmonic hot spots. In this study, we show that strong electromagnetic fields localized in the nanostar tips are able to generate large numbers of energetic (hot) electrons, which can be used for photochemistry. To compute plasmonic nanocrystals with complex shapes, we develop a quantum approach based on the effect of surface generation of hot electrons. We then apply this approach to nanostars, nanorods and nanospheres. We found that that the plasmonic nanostars with multiple hot spots have the best characteristics for optical generation of hot electrons compared to the cases of nanorods and nanospheres. Generation of hot electrons is a quantum effect and appears due to the optical transitions near the surfaces of nanocrystals. The quantum properties of nanocrystals are strongly size- and material-dependent. In particular, the silver nanocrystals significantly overcome the case of gold for the quantum rates of hot-electron generation. Another important factor is the size of a nanocrystal. Small nanocrystals are more efficient for the hot-electron generation since they exhibit stronger quantum surface effects. The results of this study can useful for designing novel material systems for solar photocatalytic applications.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.The project OASIS (OceAnic Seamounts: an Integrated Study) aims at describing the functioning characteristics of seamount ecosystems by integrating hydrographic, biogeochemical and biological information. Based on two case studies, OASIS will yield an advanced mechanistic understanding of the processes characterizing seamount ecosystems, and their influence on the surrounding ocean. The scientific results, condensed in a conceptual ecosystem model, will be applied to outline a generic management plan as well as site-specific management plans for the seamounts investigated. The primary goal of OASIS, to provide a holistic, integrated assessment of seamount ecology, will be achieved by addressing the following main objectives: (1) Identifying and describing the physical forcing mechanisms effecting seamount systems (2) Assessing the origin, quality and dynamics of particulate organic material within the water column and surface sediment at seamounts (3) Describing aspects of the biodiversity and the ecology of seamount biota, assessing their dynamics and the maintenance of their production. (4) Modelling the trophic ecology of seamount ecosystems. (5) Application of scientific knowledge to practical conservation.

description: Escherichia coli 0157:H7 (STEC 0157) is an important foodborne pathogen of humans. Cattle are sub-clinically colonized with STEC 0157 at the terminal rectal mucosa (TRM). Live cattle serve as an important reservoir for human exposure, but it is unknown if health or performance characteristics of cattle predict their risk for colonization. Our objective was to test if disease during the finishing phase, growth performance, or carcass quality measurements at harvest increased the odds of E. coli TRM colonization at the time of slaughter.

description: Shiga-toxin producing Escherichia coli 0157:H7 (STEC 0157) is an enteric bacterium that can cause severe illness in humans. Cattle are important asymptomatic reservoirs for direct or indirect human exposure to STEC 0157. The STEC 0157 colonize the terminal rectum mucosa (TRM) of cattle, and colonized cattle have been defined as super-shedders because while colonized they are an important source of STEC 0157 to other cattle in the population. At harvest, hide-to-carcass transfer of STEC 0157 presents an important risk for beef contamination and human foodborne exposure. Our objective was to determine factors that increase prevalence of hide contamination.

description: Antimicrobial substances are used in the preoperative period to reduce the number of resident skin flora and prevent surgical wound infection. Most standing abdominal surgeries in cattle are classified as clean contaminated and are performed on potentially immune-compromised cattle in a contaminated area. Thus, the antiseptic used must quickly reduce the number of microbes present while at the same time preventing bacterial recolonization following the procedure. This can be particularly difficult in field conditions where many environmental contaminants cannot be controlled by the surgeon. Environmental conditions are a major contributing factor in determining the efficacy and residual effects of antiseptic agents. Therefore, a preparation procedure with a high percentage of bacterial reduction and prolonged residual activity would prove favorable in the surgical management of cattle in a field setting. The few studies that have been completed on surgical site preparation in cattle have either been conducted in a sterile hospital surgical suite or only using 1 product in 2 different manners in a field situation. The purpose of this study was to document the comparative efficacy of a standard iodophor and alcohol preparation and a chlorhexidine and alcohol preparation in cattle under field conditions.

description: The incidence rate of left displaced abomasum (LDA) in North America is commonly 3 to 7% of calvings. Of these cases, 12 to 17% are culled or die within 30 days of surgery. There have been numerous studies focused on predicting prognosis for right displaced abomasal corrective surgery; however, fewer studies focus on LDA surgeries. These studies tend to measure only a few parameters (i.e. blood analysis) and none focus on concurrent disease or physical exam at diagnosis. Croushore et al (2013) reported that cows that were not ketotic at diagnosis (BHBA<1.2mmol/L) were at 2.5 times greater risk of being culled within 30 days than ketotic cows. Various studies have also demonstrated that elevated aspartate aminotransferase, glutamate dehydrogenase, ornithine carbamoyl transferase, bilirubin, urea, Ca, K, and Mg were associated with an increased risk of unfavorable outcomes. The objective of this research was to determine if patient survival (or culling) within 60 days after surgery could be predicted from the physical exam findings, concurrent disease status, and a biochemical profile from a blood sample obtained at the time of LDA diagnosis.

description: We use the correlation relation between the energy emitted by the GRBs in their prompt phases and the X-ray afterglow fluxes, in an effort to constrain cosmological parameters and aiming to construct a Hubble diagram at high redshifts, i.e. beyond those found with Type Ia supernovae. We use a sample of 126 \textit{Swift} GRBs, that we have selected among more than 800 long bursts observed until April 2015. The selection is based on a few observational constraints: GRB flux higher than 0.4 $photons/cm^2/s$ in the band 15-150 keV, spectrum fitted with simple power law, redshift accurately known and given, and X-ray afterglow observed and flux measured. The statistical method of maximum likelihood is then used to determine the best cosmological parameters ($Ω_M$, $Ω_Λ$) that give the best correlation for two relations: a) the Amati relation (between intrinsic spectral peak energy $E_{p,i}$ and the equivalent isotropic energy), b) the Dainotti relation, namely between the X-ray afterglow luminosity $L_X$ and the break time $T_a$, which is observed in the X-ray flux FX. Although the number of GRBs with high redshifts is rather small, and despite the notable dispersion found in the data, the results we have obtained are quite encouraging and promising. The results obtained using the Amati relation are close to those obtained using the Type Ia supernovae, and they appear to indicate a universe dominated by dark energy. However, those obtained with the correlation between the break time and the X-ray afterglow luminosity is consistent with the findings of the WMAP study of the cosmic microwave background radiation, and they seem to indicate a de Sitter-Einstein universe dominated by matter.

description: Rumen indigestion or subacute ruminal acidosis (SARA) is common even in well-managed dairy herds, and is difficult to diagnose as clinical signs vary by individual cow. A cow suffers from rumen indigestion when she experiences a prolonged period of low ruminal pH (pH<5.8) which may have returned to normal (pH 6.2-7.2) once clinical signs are evident. The purpose of this research was to find biological markers in milk that could be used to detect rumen indigestion prior to clinical signs, allowing for earlier treatment and prevention of prolonged reduced milk yield and therapy.

description: Individual and herd ketone levels are commonly monitored in dairy cattle post-partum to identify individuals at-risk of metabolic disease and to identify potential improvements to management factors. The Precision Xtra handheld meter has been validated for use for β-hydroxybutyrate (BHBA) measurements post-calving as a convenient cow-side test for ketonemia. Recent research has identified BHBA cut points prepartum associated with increased risk of post-partum disease, but at much lower cut-offs than those indicating hyperketonia after calving: 0.6 to 0.8 mmol/L in comparison to 1.0 to 1.4 mmol/L. The objective of the current research is to validate the handheld device, Precision Xtra, in the measurement of BHBA in whole blood against the gold standard method, laboratory evaluation of serum, to assess its diagnostic accuracy in detecting BHBA pre-calving in the range of 0.6 to 0.8 mmol/L.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.The aim of this project was to study the effect of the Great Meteor Seamount on the feeding of dominant calanoid copepod species. The stomach contents of dominant female copepoda were analysed on one plateau station and on one oceanic station. These were Clausocalanus furcatus, C. paululus, Mecynocera clausi, Mesocalanus tenuicornis, Paracalanus denudatus, P. nanus and Parvocalanus crassirostris. All species, except Paracalanus nanus, showed a higher feeding activity at the plateau station. In every case the degree of gut fullness was higher on the plateau than in the surrounding ocean. No identifiable food was found in the stomachs of Clausocalanus furcatus, C. paululus and Mecynocera clausi from the oceanic station. In Paracalanus denudatus and Paracalanus nanus no identifiable food was recognized at both stations. M. tenuicornis showed maximum diversity in diet composition, highest in the adjacent water of the seamount. Feeding activity and the diet composition seemed to be influenced by the Great Meteor Seamount.

description: We study a 3-loop 5-propagator Feynman Integral, which we call the vacuum seagull, with arbitrary masses and spacetime dimension using the Symmetries of Feynman Integrals method. It is our first example with potential numerators. We determine the associated group $G \subset GL(3)$ which happens to be 5 dimensional and the associated set of 5 differential equations. $G$ is determined by a geometric approach which we term "current freedom". We find the generic $G$-orbit to be co-dimension 0 and hence the method is maximally effective, and the diagram reduces to a line integral over simpler diagrams. For a reduced parameter space with 3 mass scales we are able to present explicit results in terms of special functions. This might be the first such example.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.At all stations the zooplankton population was dominated by copepods representing 80 to 95% of the total numbers. Copepods occurred in highest abundance in the upper 300 m of the water column at the plateau as well as in the surrounding water. Within the copepods, calanoids contributed the largest fraction. Only one genus, Clausocalanus, dominated the calanoid assemblage at all stations and accounted for between 33 and 51%. Within the adults, six Clausocalanus species could be identified. Clausocalanus furcatus and C. paululus were the most abundant ones. Both dominant species differed in their distribution pattern: • C. furcatus occurred in higher numbers at the plateau compared to the surrounding oceanic, C. paululus does not show a difference in occurrence. • the maximum abundance of C. furcatus occurred in the upper 100m, whereas C. paululus is most abundant in deeper water layers.

description: In this paper, we introduce a new generalization of weakly prime ideals called $I$-prime. Suppose $R$ is a commutative ring with identity and $I$ a fixed ideal of $R$. A proper ideal $P$ of $R$ is $I$-prime if for $a, b \in R$ with $ab \in P-IP$ implies either $a \in P$ or $b \in P$. We give some characterizations of $I$-prime ideals and study some of its properties. Moreover, we give conditions under which $I$-prime ideals becomes prime or weakly prime and we construct the view of $I$-prime ideal in decomposite rings.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Interspecific relationships of four dominant fish species of the Great Meteor seamount fish community (subtropical NE Atlantic, 30°N 28.5°W), Macroramphosus spp. Lacépède 1803, Capros aper (L. 1758), Antigonia capros Lowe 1843 and Zenopsis conchifer (Lowe 1852) were analysed with respect to diet composition, habitat dependent resource utilisation and niche overlap. For all four species, planktonic and micronektonic prey prevailed. In terms of the Relative Importance index (RI), the benthic share was 18.25 %RI for Macroramphosus spp., 19 %RI for C. aper and 20.38 %RI for A. capros. Prey of Z. conchifer consisted of 48.57 %RI mesopelagic and pelagic fishes and of 47.7 %RI bentho-pelagic fishes. For all fishes, a permutation test revealed significant selection of prey in plateau margins of the seamount. Unweighted and novel weighted overlap indices combining prey composition, habitat use and prey utilisation within habitats revealed high overlap between the boarfishes A. capros and C. aper and smaller overlap between other pairs. The results are in support of the sound scattering layer-interception hypothesis (Isaacs JD, Schwartzlose RA (1965) Science 150: 1810-1813), which implies (1) primarily pelagic food utilisation for bentho-pelagic fishes, (2) increased habitat dependent utilisation rates at locations of interception with the sound scattering layer, (3) diel changes in utilisation rates due to availability of prey and (4) sufficient resource partitioning among species in order to avoid competitive exclusion
Use of reproductive ultrasound for goat herd management

description: Routine reproductive ultrasound examinations in dairy and meat goat herds provide the veterinarian with the ability to view the entire female herd on a routine basis, establish a valid veterinary-client-patient relationship, measure reproductive performance, and plan strategies for the breeding, dry period, transitional period, and kidding management. Diagnosis ofpregnancy, early detection and treatment of hydrometra or other pathologic conditions, fetal enumeration, gestational staging, fetal well-being, and fetal death can all be used to make management decisions and evaluate herd performance.

description: We propose a simple method to estimate the central charge of the conformal field theory corresponding to a critical point of a two-dimensional lattice model from Monte Carlo simulations. The main idea is to use the Wang-Landau flat-histogram algorithm, which allows us to obtain the free energy of a lattice model on a torus as a function of torus radii. The central charge is calculated with a good precision from a free energy scaling at the critical point. We apply the method to the Ising, tricritical Ising (Blume-Capel), Potts and site-diluted Ising models, and also discuss estimation of conformal weights.

Tailgate vaccinology
Creators: name: Newcomer, Benjamin W.
Publisher: name: American Association of Bovine Practitioners  Proceedings of the Annual Conference
Year: 2014

description: Vaccination is an important tool to improve herd health as part of an overall biosecurity program. The large number of vaccines available, differences in vaccine efficacy, and diversity of management schemes and production goals can complicate the designing of a vaccination program and emphasizes the need to tailor such programs to the needs of individual clients. There is no single best approach to fashioning bovine vaccine protocols; therefore, it is imperative that the veterinarian understand the differences in vaccine labeling and formulation, and mesh this knowledge with the goals and management scheme of the client in the selection and timing of vaccinations. This presentation will review factors necessary to consider in the formation of vaccination programs, and discuss the application of these factors to both dairy and beef operations.

Making antibiotic choices in bovine medicine
Creators: name: Newcomer, Benjamin W.
Publisher: name: American Association of Bovine Practitioners  Proceedings of the Annual Conference
Year: 2014

description: Selection of therapeutic antibiotics for use in bovine patients can be a difficult decision, particularly when clinical experience is limited. A limited number of antimicrobial drugs are available to the bovine practitioner, and extra-label drug use is restricted in food animal medicine. Factors of the target infectious agent, the host and management scheme, as well as the drug must be considered when prescribing or administering antibiotics. The goal of this presentation is to review the major antibiotics available to the bovine practitioner, and provide a brief outline of the restrictions of extra-label drug use in cattle with the aim of applying this knowledge to selection of antibiotics for use in beef or dairy cattle.

description: We revisit the global QCD analysis of parton-to-kaon fragmentation functions at next-to-leading order accuracy using the latest experimental information on single-inclusive kaon production in electron-positron annihilation, lepton-nucleon deep-inelastic scattering, and proton-proton collisions. An excellent description of all data sets is achieved, and the remaining uncertainties in parton-to-kaon fragmentation functions are estimated and discussed based on the Hessian method. Extensive comparisons to the results from our previous global analysis are made.

description: Although passive transfer of antibodies to the newborn calf provides many great benefits, high levels of maternal antibodies may limit the ability of the calf to respond to parenterally administered vaccines against the respiratory viruses associated with bovine respiratory disease (BRD). Experimental challenge studies have demonstrated varying levels of efficacy of vaccines administered via the intranasal route. Unfortunately, direct identification of lung lesions associated with BRD requires euthanasia and often limits the size of study populations. As an alternative, thoracic ultrasonography (US) can be performed quickly and provides an accurate antemortem assessment of lung health. Therefore, the purpose of this randomized controlled clinical trial was to evaluate the effect of an intranasal vaccine on calf health, ultrasonographic lung lesions, and growth in young Holstein calves.
