description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) support the most valuable commercial fishery of the Canadian Pacific coast. We used microsatellite DNA to characterize aspects of sockeye salmon ecology of the Skeena River. The different Skeena sockeye populations which originate from approximately 28 rearing lakes, migrate to sea in May and June. Sockeye salmon smolts migrate earlier from lakes that are closer to the coast than from lakes that are further inland. While it has long been known that the different populations of adult sockeye salmon return to the Skeena River, and to Babine Lake tributaries in a characteristic sequence, our results demonstrate that the phenology of downstream migration for different populations of sockeye salmon smolts is also structured by timing and geography. Babine Lake, which produces approximately 80% of all Skeena sockeye salmon, may be divided into several subpopulations. Genetic analysis of samples collected in 2014 shows that juvenile sockeye originating from tributaries to different sections of Babine Lake had distinctive timing. 84.3% of the earlier migrants came from populations that spawn in the northern section closest to the lake outlet, while 87.6 % of later migrants came from populations that spawn in the middle and upper sections of the lake.
DEVELOPMENT OF CULTURE AND TOXICITY TESTING METHODS FOR THE FRESHWATER COPEPOD BRYOCAMPTUS ZSCHOKKEI
Creators: name: BROWN, REBECCA JAYNE
Publisher: name: University of Plymouth

description: The aim of this thesis was to evaluate the use of a meiofaunal copepod as a test species for assessing the developmental and reproductive effects of toxicants relevant to freshwater ecosystems. The harpacticoid copepod Bryocamptus zschokkei was chosen as a candidate test species as it possesses several attributes (widespread distribution, small size and fast development times) that are considered pre-requisites for toxicity test organisms, and has previously been shown to be a sensitive component of the stream community to contaminant exposure. Prior to conducting toxicity tests with B. zschokkei, studies were performed to evaluate the effects of water hardness and food quality on the development and reproduction of this copepod. These data were then used to define optimal culture conditions. Bryocamptus zschokkei was insensitive to water hardness at <150 mg 1ˉ¹ (as CaCO3), reflecting its range of tolerance in the field and suggesting the potential for toxicity testing across a range of hardness levels. Food quality affected development and reproduction: beech leaves (Fagus sylvatica L.), conditioned for 2 weeks supported optimal overall development to adult and reproduction of B. zschokkei and were chosen for use in subsequent culturing and testing regimes. Development and reproduction assays for assessing the effects of environmental parameters on B. zschokkei were combined to produce the first full life-cycle toxicity test for a freshwater copepod. This life-cycle test was relatively quick (6 weeks at 20°C) and is highly reproducible. The effects of three reference chemicals, the trace metal zinc, the pesticide lindane, and the moulting hormone 20-hydroxyecdysone (20-HE), were measured using this toxicity test. There was no effect of 20-HE (0-269 µg 1ˉ¹) on the life cycle of B, zschokkei. Bryocamptus zschokkei was, however, relatively sensitive to zinc and lindane compared with other freshwater crustaceans although sensitivity depended on the chemical and the duration of exposure. A model of ‘equiproportional development' was used to aid interpretation of the mechanism of toxicity of lindane, which was found to act by significantly prolonging the development time to adult. Reproductive endpoints (numbers of eggs and nauplii per female) were the most sensitive measure of zinc and lindane exposure, with lowest observed effect concentrations (LOEC) of 0.48 mg Zn 1ˉ¹ and 32 fig lindane 1ˉ¹, respectively. An increase in abortion frequency, observed for these contaminants, may have potential as a biomarker of stress for this copepod. In conclusion, it is proposed that toxicity tests with B. zschokkei should be included in contaminant assessment procedures for freshwater systems as they would increase the choice and ecological relevance of current testing regimes.
THE EFFECT OF HEAVY METAL CONTAMINATION ON ESTUARINE BENTHIC FAUNA AT VARYING LEVELS OF BIOLOGICAL ORGANISATION
Creators: name: PERRYMAN, SARAH ALICIA MICHELLE
Publisher: name: University of Plymouth
Year: 1996

description: Biological monitoring techniques, selected to cover increasing levels of biological organisation (cellular, individual, population and community), were compared and contrasted to determine the relative sensitivities of these approaches to heavy metal contammation. The study was centred on the Fal Estuary in Cornwall, an ideal experimental field site-with well documented heavy metal contamination resulting firom the long-term discharge of waste from a local tin mine. Five creeks leadmg from the estuary differ dramatically in the concentrations of heavy metals in the sediments, but little in natural environmental variables (sediment granulometry, salinity etc.). The contaminant induced damage was evaluated at the cellular level in Mytilus edulis by the Neutral Red Assay to detect lysosomal membrane damage. Parameters of the energy budget of this species were determined to estmiate 'Scope for Growth' of mdividuals. along with a Larval Survival assay to estabUsh their reproductive and developmental success. At the population level. Cohort Growth studies were undertaken using the polychaete Nephtys hombergi. At the community level, data firom an extensive three year survey of benthic macrofauna structure were analysed. In addition to investigating biological parameters, contammant levels in sedunent and tissue were determuied using Atomic Absorption Spectrommetry. All techniques, except the population level, detected the extreme pollution of the most contaminated creek, Restronguet, but did not accurately reflect the known metal gradient. However, community studies established distinct macrofaunal assemblages between both sites and years. Techniques were compared and validated in a novel approach using the program BIOENV, with the multivariate analysis package PRIMER (Plymouth Routines in Multivariate Ecological Research). The cellular assay correlated reasonably well agamst the heavy metal levels, the larval survival assay correlated well to the community structure. However, the community structure approach was the most sensitive and relevant monitoring method to determme the long-term contamination of the Fal Estuary.

description: This qualitative analysis makes a case for Intelligent Design on the bases of mathematics, scientific logic, and the observation of present day supernatural events.  Objective examination of the evidence supports the theory of Intelligent Design.  Main points of this paper were as follows: 1.) Chemical evolution would require abiogenesis, which is mathematically impossible; 2.) The Theory of Natural Design is based on the controversial Urey Miller Experiment; the probative value of which is overstated by Naturalists despite obvious flaws; 3.)  Life is composed of more than just  physical reality, containing intangible, unmeasurable elements that are just as real as the tangible; and 4.) Events requiring divine intervention to be true have been observed in present day.  As a whole, these factors make a most compelling case for the Intelligent Design Theory.
THE ECOLOGICAL CAUSES AND CONSEQUENCES OF PREY CHOICE AND ONTOGENETIC NICHE SHIFTS IN THE COMMON GOBY
Creators: name: Jackson, Angus Charles
Publisher: name: University of Plymouth
Year: 2004

description: Foraging behaviour of the common goby, Pomatoschistus microps was investigated in both the United Kingdom and Sweden, with the aim of establishing causes and consequences of prey choice and ontogenetic shifts in diet. Goby life-cycle could be clearly divided into two stages, where prey choice changed abruptly from meio- to macrofauna at a standard length of 30 mm. This diet-shift maximised net energy intake rates, as illustrated by a quantitatively validated optimal foraging model. Intrinsic mechanisms were of greater importance than extrinsic factors in driving this shift. Metabolism, the primary prey choice determinant, revealed canalised and predictable diet shifts in the face of variable prey availability. This was in strong contrast to the more usual determinants such as gape limitation or extrinsic factors, such as habitat shift, prey availability and predation risk. Post diet-shift gobies consumed a range of benthic macrofauna dependent on availability. This plasticity in prey choice suggested that foraging efficiency was at some level below that expected for specialist foragers. Translocation experiments provided support for the general assertion that learning and experience are mechanisms through which generalist foragers could improve their foraging efficiency. Ontogenetic changes in prey choice did not result in a trade-off between foraging efficiency and other ecological parameters, leading to a prediction, upheld by geometric morphometries, that there would be no change in morphology associated with this change in diet. Conditions precluding diet shifts, and the resulting consequences, were explored using mesocosm manipulations. Adult gobies prevented from feeding on macrofauna suffered reduced condition and fitness. Pomatoschistus microps is an ideal species for investigations into foraging behaviour and has provided valuable support for current foraging paradigms as well as novel insights into the causes and consequences of prey choice.

EFFECT OF DIETARY VITAMIN E AND LIPIDS ON SOME IMMUNE PARAMETERS OF TURBOT (SCOPHTHALMUS MAXIMUS L.)
Creators: name: Crampe, Mireille
Publisher: name: University of Plymouth
Year: 1998

description: The effect of dietary vitamin E and dietary lipids on growth and immune parameters of juvenile turbot (Scophthalmus maximus) were investigated in a series of experiments. The aims of the studies were to maximise immune function through dietary modulation to counteract stress induced immunodepression resulting from high stocking densities. In the first experimental trial, the vitamin E requirement for an optimum immune response was studied and revealed that vitamin E depletion induced poor health status, lower growth with some mortalities occurring at the end of the trial. However, supplementation of the diets with high levels of α-tocopherol although ensuring better growth did not significantly enhance most of the parameters measured at the end of the trial. The second trial aimed to test regimes coupling fresh or oxidised oil and low or high vitamin E supplementation. The results showed that vitamin E had a role in preventing peroxidation as high vitamin E supplementation improved some of the immunological parameters measured compared to fish fed with the same oxidised oil but low levels of vitamin E. By contrast low levels of vitamin E did not induce pathological conditions in fish fed with fresh oil showing the importance of dietary lipid in the evaluation of vitamin E requirements. Following this investigation another feeding trial was designed to look at the interaction of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) and α-tocopherol on the immune parameters of juvenile turbot. Although liver lipid composition was affected by the diets and growth was enhanced by high vitamin E levels and a high ratio of (n-3)/(n-6) PUFAs no significant differences could be attributed to the lipid quality in the immunological parameters measured. Vitamin E supplementation enhanced the proliferation of kidney leucocytes when stimulated with lipopolysaccharide. These studies give some information on the requirements for vitamin E and lipid quality of juvenile turbot.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Discards are a significant component of catch in the Northwest Atlantic bottom longline fishery. Because the survival of bycatch is often low, reduction of sublegal bycatch in the bottom set longline fishery for Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) is important to the stock rebuilding efforts. Investigations were made on the effects of three different hook sizes and gangion spacing (1.83 m and 3.66 m) on selectivity of bottom set longline gear. Though an increase in catch per hook was noted using the larger gangion spacing, the results were not statistically significant. An increase from 11/0 to 15/0 hooks reduced the capture of sub-legal cod by 33.5% and only reduced the capture of legal cod (49 cm and above) by 5.8%.

THE ENTERIC DELIVERY OF MACROMOLECULES AND SUBSEQUENT IMMUNE RESPONSE IN THE CICHLID Oreochromis mossambicus
Creators: name: JENKINS, PAUL GEORGE
Publisher: name: University of Plymouth
Year: 1992

description: Enhanced enteric delivery systems were examined in the cichlid Oreochromis mossambicus to evaluate the requirements for potential oral vaccination strategies in teleost fish. Human gamma globulin (HGG) was delivered enterically (orally or anally) to the intestine of O.mossambicus as a standard test antigen. The co-administration of the saponin Quillaja saponaria (Quil-A) was evaluated as a novel oral adjuvant, delivered with the antigen in a soluble form and also as a delivery vehicle in the form of micelles and immunestimulatory complexes (ISCOMS). HGG absorption across the intestine was monitored utilising sensitive immunocytochemical techniques which showed that the enterically delivered antigen was transcytosed in a temporally complex manner, underwent extensive interaction with the enterocytes and gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) cells and was eventually transported to the vicinity of the intestinal circulatory system Co-administration of Quil-A resulted in an increase in the HGG absorbed, increased antigen localisation in the lamina propria and substantial interaction of the adjuvant with the enterocyte lumenal membranes. The levels of HGG absorbed into the plasma were directly quantified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and showed that administration of Quil-A concurrently with HGG greatly increased absorption above levels observed without adjuvant in the delivery system. Western blotting and laser densitometry demonstrated that HGG was absorbed as both an intact macromolecular antigen and as fragmented epitopes of distinct molecular weights. The fragmentation of the enterically delivered HGG was modified by the delivery of Quil-A suggesting that manipulation of conformational aspects of the delivered antigen may be possible. The systemic and mucosal immune responses to HGG administration were monitored and enteric immunisation of antigen with Quil-A was found to be effective in increasing specific antibody levels in the plasma, bile and cutaneous mucus of immunised fish. Preliminary studies on the use of cholera toxin β-subunit, aluminium hydroxide and ammonium chloride showed that cholera toxin β-subunit acted to increase both level of absorbed antigen, after enteric delivery and the subsequent immune response to HGG whereas the other two adjuvants were unable to mediate any such responses.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Thousands of traps averaging 100 meters on the rounds and 18 meters deep are operated around Newfoundland annually to catch Atlantic Cod. The catch of Cod in those traps often exceeds the small fish protocol of not more than 15% under 43 cm. In the past this has resulted in the closure of the Cod trap fishery in some areas. In 1997 traps operated in nine different locations on the West Coast of Newfoundland were modified with square mesh panels to reduce the catch of small fish. All square mesh panels measured six meters by six meters and were installed into the trap drying twine. Five of the panels were 102-mm mesh, and the other four were 117-mm mesh. Each trap had retainer bags attached to the square mesh panels to capture the escaping fish. Mesh sizes in the retainer bags varied from 57-mm to 102-mm. The nine traps were hauled up to two times each day during the June-July, traditional trap season. Samples of 250 fish were collected from each trap and retainer for each set, and the length measured. During the testing period, 40,200 kilograms of Cod were caught in 56 trap hauls. Cumulative length frequency graphs were generated for each trap and retainer showing the commutative percentage of fish caught at various fish lengths. The percentage of fish <43 cm. In three of the four traps with 117-mm square mesh panels was <15%, while only one of the traps with 102- mm square mesh panels had <15% small fish.

description: This project examines whether there exists a link between occupational segregation by race and labor market outcomes during the COVID-19 pandemic. We estimate the extent to which workers employed in occupations with higher concentrations of Black workers were more likely to indicate a change in employer, a change in hours employed, or a change in earnings during the pandemic. The results show that Black workers employed in occupations with higher concentrations of Black workers are more likely to indicate a reduction in hours and earnings compared to White workers employed in occupations with similar concentrations of Black workers during the pandemic. These results do not exist between Hispanic and White workers when comparing individuals employed in occupations with similar concentrations of Hispanic workers. Considering that short-term unemployment, long-term unemployment, or a reduction in earnings can affect future Social Security payments, racial differences in labor market outcomes are directly related to SSA programs and may have lasting impacts on individuals during older ages.

description: Most households enter retirement as homeowners and only sell after a spouse enters a nursing home or dies, with recent retirees having greater housing wealth but also greater mortgage debt. We show that the share of homeowners entering retirement with mortgages increased from 37.9% for early birth cohorts in the Health and Retirement Study to 50.8% for recently retiring cohorts, and their median mortgage balance approximately doubled, to $108,523 in 2022 dollars. Analyzing socioeconomic characteristics of mortgage holders, we find that Hispanic and especially Black households with mortgages have extremely low median financial assets, while financial assets for white households, though higher, remain insufficient to cover their mortgage debt. We additionally show that, conditional on demographic characteristics and house value, households with larger mortgages hold less financial assets, retire later, experience greater declines in consumption during retirement, and sell their houses earlier as they age. For some households, therefore, mortgage-financed housing wealth may be a liability in old age. Lastly, we develop an intertemporal optimization model of consumption and dissaving choices during retirement. The model includes long-term care risk, Medicaid, and a luxury bequest motive. We find that mortgage-financed illiquid housing provides little bequest value but acts as informal insurance against long-term care cost risk. The value, though small for households with low financial assets, reaches as high as 52% of the mortgage balance for households with substantial financial assets to protect. For such households, therefore, mortgage-financed housing wealth in retirement may be a valuable asset.

description: Using a case study approach, this thesis explores the ways in which Ainu individuals living in Tokyo are able to celebrate their Indigeneity in the 21st century. The adoption of traditional yet innovative ancestral ways connected to their homelands in the northern island of Hokkaido enables them to (re)connect with their Ainu cultural inheritance and spirituality in new and exciting ways in the urban environment of Tokyo. Three peripheral multilingual spaces have emerged in this cityscape as examples of how Ainu living in the present can express their 'Ainu heart' alongside contemporary sociolinguistic realities.

THE UPTAKE AND FLUX OF DISSOLVED NITROGEN IN MARINE WATERS
Creators: name: REES, ANDREW PAUL
Publisher: name: University of Plymouth
Year: 2001

description: The biological uptake and transformation of inorganic nitrogen species is described for contrasting marine environments which include a sea loch, riverine plume, polar marginal ice-zone, continental shelf break, oligotrophic ocean and a mesoscale eddy. Uptake of nitrate and ammonium by phytoplankton has been determined using the stable isotope as a tracer and continuous flow stable isotope-ratio mass spectrometry. The analysis of dissolved and atmospheric nitrous oxide was made using electron capture detector gas chromatography in a novel configuration which also allowed for the simultaneous analysis of methane from a single sample. Significant advances in the study of the marine nitrogen cycle have been made and presented to the scientific community via publication in high quality research journals and by the placement of data into the British Oceanographic Data Centre. These are important from local and global perspectives; information on the trophic status of seawaters is presented with respect to seasonal and hydrographical variability, as is the contribution made to knowledge regarding the role of nitrogen in climate change. Nitrogen availability is limiting in many oceans and attempts to constrain the global atmosphere - ocean fluxes of CO2 are based on basin scale nitrogen balances. The development of novel analytical procedures and their subsequent use during a number of field programs and modeling exercises has increased the available knowledge regarding the role of nitrogen in the removal of carbon to the deep ocean. In particular new insights into new production and ultimately carbon export have been made, these include: (i) The accepted threshold limit for phytoplankton uptake of nitrate in the oligotrophic ocean has been reduced from 0.016 to 0.005 mmol m ^ (ii) a relationship has been described relating the size structure of the phytoplankton productivity to new production which can be used as a direct estimate of carbon export, (iii) a series of algorithms have been produced to allow the basin scale estimation of new production from satellite and ship derived data, and (iv) whilst nitrous oxide plays a significant role in radiative forcing and stratospheric ozone depletion, an area in the Southern Ocean was found to provide a seasonal sink to atmospheric N2O.
