Book Synopsis Behavioral Adaptation to Intertidal Life by : Guido Chelazzi
Download or read book Behavioral Adaptation to Intertidal Life written by Guido Chelazzi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-12-20 with total page 519 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The NATO Advanced Research Workshop on "Behavioural Adaptation to Intertidal Life" held in Castiglioncello, Italy (May, 1987) was attended by 50 participants, most of whom presented requested lectures. It was perhaps the first time that specialists of various animal groups, from cnidarians to birds, were able to meet and discuss the importance of behavioural adaptation to this peculiar, sometimes very harsh environment. But the taxonomic barrier is not the only one which the meeting attemped to over come. Lately, the research on intertidal biology has spread from pure taxonomy and static analysis of community structure to such dynamic aspects as intra- and interspecific relationships, and physiological mechanisms aimed at avoiding stress and exploitation of limited-resources. This increasing interest stems not only from an inclination for this particular ecological system and some of its typical inhabitants, but also from the realization that rocky and sandy shore communities are suitable models for testing and improving some global theories of evolutionary biology, behavioural ecology and sociobiology. The number of eco-physiological and eco-ethological problems emerging from the study of intertidal animals is fascinatingly large and a complete understanding of this environment cannot be reached using a strictly "reductionistic" or a pure "holistic" approach.

Book Synopsis Thermal Ecology of Ocypode Quadrata and Pachygrapsus Crassipes Using Infrared Thermography by : Sonya Elizabeth Rose Timko

This book was released on 2021 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Temperature is crucial to the optimal functioning of most physiological and behavioral processes in animals. For ectothermic crabs that inhabit shorelines, temperature fluctuations and anomalies pose a challenge for maintaining optimal body temperature. Here we examine the thermal ecology of two shore crabs, the ghost crab, Ocypode quadrata, and the striped shore crab, Pachygrapsus crassipes, using non-invasive infrared thermographic (IRT) technology. We tested the hypothesis that the exoskeleton helps buffer changes in environmental temperature by recording exoskeleton surface temperature in live and dead animals exposed to external heat sources. Crabs were first acclimated to room temperature in an experimental arena, then heat was sequentially added from a hot plate (conduction), IR emitter (radiation), and a heat lamp (radiation) until peak heat was reached, then all heat sources were sequentially removed. Exoskeleton surface temperature was recorded across multiple body locations (carapace, chelipeds and 5th pereopods) throughout increased and decreased heat exposure. For both species, dead crabs had significantly greater exoskeleton temperature flux than live crabs across all body locations, as well as the substrate. Thus, the exoskeleton itself does not appear to provide much thermal buffering, but the physiology and behavior of live crabs do. While O. quadrata spent most of the time sponging, P. crassipes actively avoided areas of high heat. This study demonstrates the responsiveness of the crab exoskeleton to environmental temperature changes and lays a foundation for exploring additional thermal adaptations of crabs on land using non-invasive IRT technology.

Book Synopsis Treatise on Zoology - Anatomy, Taxonomy, Biology. The Crustacea, Volume 9 Part C (2 vols) by : Peter Castro
Download or read book Treatise on Zoology - Anatomy, Taxonomy, Biology. The Crustacea, Volume 9 Part C (2 vols) written by Peter Castro and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2015-11-24 with total page 1233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume, 9C, in two parts, covers the Brachyura. With the publication of the ninth volume in the Treatise on Zoology: The Crustacea, we departed from the sequence one would normally expect. Some crustacean groups, mainly comprising the Decapoda, never had a French version produced, and the organization and production of these “new” chapters began independently from the preparation of the other chapters and volumes. Originally envisioned to encompass volume 9 of the series, it quickly became evident that the depth of material for such a volume must involve the printing of separate fascicles. The new chapters have now been completed, and the production of volume 9 was started while volumes 3 through 8 were (and in part still are) in preparation; with this vol. 9C-I & II this volume 9 is now concluded; vols. 1-5 have also been published and vols. 6-8 are being prepared.
Book Synopsis Coral Reefs of the Gulf by : Bernhard Riegl
Download or read book Coral Reefs of the Gulf written by Bernhard Riegl and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-04-13 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coral Reefs of the Gulf: Adaptation to Climatic Extremes is a complete review and reference for scientists, engineers and students concerned with the geology, biology or engineering aspects of coral reefs in the Middle East. It provides for the first time a complete review of both the geology and biology of all extant coral areas in the Gulf, the water body between Iran and the Arabian Peninsula. In summer, this area is the hottest sea with abundant coral growth on earth and already today exhibits a temperature that is predicted to occur across the topical ocean in 2100. Thus, by studying the Gulf today, much can be learned about tomorrow’s world and the capability of coral reefs to adapt to climatic extremes. This volume provides the most authoritative and up-to-date review of the coral reefs in the Gulf. It can be used as a volume of general reference or as a textbook treating recent coral reefs. Written by local and international experts, the text is richly illustrated and will remain a standard reference for the region for decades to come. Contributions stretch from climatology through geology, biology, ecological modelling and fisheries science to practical conservation aspects. The book is useful for the technical expert and casual reader alike.
