TY - RPRT T1 - GULF OF MEXICO RANGE COMPLEX, ALABAMA, FLORIDA, GEORGIA, LOUISIANA, MISSISSIPPI, AND TEXAS. [Part 2 of 4] T2 - GULF OF MEXICO RANGE COMPLEX, ALABAMA, FLORIDA, GEORGIA, LOUISIANA, MISSISSIPPI, AND TEXAS. AN - 756825494; 13677-080539_0002 AB - PURPOSE: The assessment of a proposed 10-year planning horizon associated with Navy training, research, development, test and evaluation (RDT&E) activities, and associated range capabilities enhancements in the Gulf of Mexico Range Complex (GOMEX) is presented. GOMEX encompasses offshore operating areas, inland ranges, and associate airspace. Operational requirements for deploying combat-ready naval forces worldwide drive and shape training doctrine and procedures GOMEX operating areas and facilities lie within the Gulf of Mexico and the states of Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas. The GOMEX encompasses 17,440 square nautical miles of offshore surface and subsurface operating areas and 12,072 square nautical miles of shallow ocean area less than 600 feet deep. These offshore operating areas include overlying special use airspace called warning areas. The GOMEX also encompasses 15 square nautical miles of land area, including two land targets (McMullen County Range and Noxubee County Range) and the associated restricted airspace. In addition, the complex includes several high altitude overland airspace areas known as military operating areas. finally, the complex includes several other training areas, including the Naval Air Station Panama City Demolition Pond and the Western Maneuver Area at the Stennis Space Center. The complex would host research and training activities in all eight functional areas associated in Navy primary mission areas, specifically, air warfare, strike warfare, mine warfare, amphibious warfare, surface warfare, anti-submarine warfare, electronic combat, and naval special warfare. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, which would perpetuate current training activities within GOMEX, are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred alternative (Alternative 2) would significantly expand training and RDT&E activities throughout GOMEX in response to the recently developed Fleet Response Training Plan. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Implementation of the 10-year plan would assist the Navy in achieving and maintaining fleet readiness, expand warfare missions supported by the complex, and upgrade and modernize existing range capabilities to enhance and sustain Navy training and RRT&E activities. The GOMEX would assist the Navy in effectively countering the array of threats by bring together thousands of sailors and marines, their equipment, vehicles, ships, and aircraft for training purposes. The complex would also support joint training operations with other branches of the U.S. military and with the military of U.S. allies. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Environmental and/or social stressors resulting from operations within GOMEX would include vessel movement disturbance and vessel collisions; aircraft noise, including sonic booms; explosion of towed mine warfare devices and underwater detonations, explosion of high-explosive ordnance, disturbances caused by the use of non-explosive munitions; and detritus from expended material. The use of explosive munitions would release toxins into aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. Underwater explosions and the use of sonar could affect the directional abilities of marine mammals, and a number of the animals would be injured or killed due to collisions with vessels. Explosives and ship movements would also place sea turtles at risk, including endangered species of turtle. Restrictions on airspace and Gulf operating areas would prevent the use of these areas by other transportation interests during operations, though such operations would which invariably be of short duration.

AN - 69840147; 18692130 AB - Oxidatively induced damage to DNA results in a plethora of lesions comprising modified bases and sugars, DNA-protein cross-links, tandem lesions, strand breaks, and clustered lesions. Formamidopyrimidines, 4,6-diamino-5-formamidopyrimidine (FapyAde) and 2,6-diamino-4-hydroxy-5-formamidopyrimidine (FapyGua), are among the major lesions generated in DNA by hydroxyl radical attack, UV radiation, or photosensitization under numerous in vitro and in vivo conditions. They are formed by one-electron reduction of C8-OH-adduct radicals of purines and thus have a common precursor with 8-hydroxypurines generated upon one-electron oxidation. Methodologies using mass spectrometry exist to accurately measure FapyAde and FapyGua in vitro and in vivo. Formamidopyrimidines are repaired by base excision repair. Numerous prokaryotic and eukaryotic DNA glycosylases are highly specific for removal of these lesions from DNA in the first step of this repair pathway, indicating their biological importance. FapyAde and FapyGua are bypassed by DNA polymerases with the insertion of the wrong intact base opposite them, leading to mutagenesis. In mammalian cells, the mutagenicity of FapyGua exceeds that of 8-hydroxyguanine, which is thought to be the most mutagenic of the oxidatively induced lesions in DNA. The background and formation levels of the former in vitro and in vivo equal or exceed those of the latter under various conditions. FapyAde and FapyGua exist in living cells at significant background levels and are abundantly generated upon exposure to oxidative stress. Mice lacking the genes that encode specific DNA glycosylases accumulate these lesions in different organs and, in some cases, exhibit a series of pathological conditions including metabolic syndrome and cancer. Animals exposed to environmental toxins accumulate formamidopyrimidines in their organs. Here, we extensively review the mechanisms of formation, measurement, repair, and biological effects of formamidopyrimidines that have been investigated in the past 50 years. Our goal is to emphasize the importance of these neglected lesions in many biological and disease processes.

AN - 66693481; 19053541 AB - In this work, potential atmospheric loss processes for SO2F2, a commercially used biocide (fumigant), have been studied and its global warming potential calculated. Rate coefficients for the gas-phase reactions OH + SO2F2 --> products, k1, and Cl + SO2F2 --> products, k4, were determined using a relative rate technique to be k1 300, >10000, 700, and >4700 years, respectively. The stratospheric lifetime of SO2F2 is calculated using a two-dimensional model to be 630 years. The global warming potential (GWP) for SO2F2 was calculated to be 4780 for the 100 year time horizon using infrared absorption cross sections measured in this work and a SO2F2 globally averaged atmospheric lifetime of 36 years, which is determined primarily by ocean uptake, reported by Mühle et al. (Mühle, J.; Huang, J.; Weiss, R. F.; Prinn, R. G.; Miller, B. R.; Salameh, P. K.; Harth, C. M.; Fraser, P. J.; Porter, L. W.; Greally, B. R.; O'Doherty, S.; Simonds, P. G. J. Geophys. Res., submitted for publication, 2008). Reaction channels and the possible formation of stable adducts in reactions 1 and 4 were evaluated using ab initio, CCSD(T), and density functional theory, B3P86, quantum mechanical electronic structure calculations.

Climatological monthly means of temperature, salinity, and density reveal strong seasonal patterns. Water temperatures are generally warmest (coolest) in September (February), with stations in shallow finger inlets away from mixing zones displaying the largest temperature ranges. Salinities and densities are strongly influenced by freshwater inflows from major rivers during winter and spring from precipitation and snowmelt, respectively, and variations are greatest in the surface waters and at stations closest to river mouths. Vertical density gradients are primarily determined by salinity variations in the surface layer, with stations closest to river mouths most frequently displaying the largest buoyancy frequencies at depths of approximately 4-6m. Strong tidal stirring and reflux over sills at the entrance to Puget Sound generally removes vertical stratification. Mean summer and winter values of oceanographic properties reveal patterns of spatial connectivity in Puget Sound's three main basins; Whidbey Basin, Hood Canal, and Main Basin. Surface waters that are warmed in the summer are vertically mixed over the sill at Admiralty Inlet and advected at depth into Whidbey Basin and Hood Canal. Cooler and fresher surface waters cap these warmer waters during winter, producing temperature inversions.

AN - 36351882; 13061 AB - PURPOSE: The amendment of the Gulf of Mexico reef fish fishery management plan (FMP) is proposed to address stock rebuilding and overfishing of greater amberjack and gray triggerfish. Greater amberjack have been under a rebuilding plan since 2003. In 2006, a new stock assessment was completed and determined that the stock was not recovering at the rate previously projected. The stock continues to be overfished. Gray triggerfish populations are also suffering from overfishing, but the exact extent of overfishing is not currently known as the Gulf of Mexico Fishery Management Council (Council) has yet to define a threshold for declaring the species overfished; based on the preferred threshold in the amendment at hand, the stock is overfished. Measures considered in this final EIS on the amendment include modification of the rebuilding plan for greater amberjack and implementation of stronger accountability measures; evaluation of greater amberjack recreational and commercial management alternatives; establishment of thresholds and benchmarks for gray triggerfish; development of a gray triggerfish rebuilding plan and strengthening of the associated accountability measures; and implement regional management measures for gray triggerfish and measures to regulate recreational and commercial fishing for triggerfish. Specific management measures addressing the two target species would include commercial and recreational catch quotas and size limits, gear restrictions, and seasonal closures. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Implementation of the amendment would end overfishing of amberjack and triggerfish in the Gulf and adjust catch levels and management measures to rebuild these stocks. The establishment of firm targets in the form of thresholds for triggerfish would allow the Council to gauge accurately the health and direction of the fishery and adjust the FMP accordingly. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Catch quotas, size limits, gear restrictions, and area closures would reduce the economic viability of the commercial fishery as well as the charter segment of the recreational fishery and reduce the public's access to the affected recreational resources. More intensive management, particularly the implementation of accountability measures, would substantially increase the administrative burden involved in management the fisheries. Controversy over whether recreational or commercial fishing interests are responsible for the current condition of the fishery could be exacerbated by restrictions.

AN - 756826132; 13764-080512_0009 AB - PURPOSE: The designation of sonar use areas and the use of active sonar technology and the improved extended echo ranging (IEER) system during the Navy's Atlantic Fleet training exercises are proposed. For the purposes of this EIS process, all the foregoing technologies are considered to be sonar systems. The IEER system consists of an explosive source sonobouy (AN/SSQ-110A) and an air deployable active receiver (AN/SSQ-101). Under Presidential Proclamation 5828 of December 27, 1988, the United States extended its exercise of sovereignty and jurisdiction under international law to 12 nautical miles from land. The proposed action would occur within and outside of United States territorial waters. The training to b e undertaken would consist of operating mid- and high-frequency active sonar systems in a realistic environment to maximize operator familiarity. Active sonar, and the expertise in its use by the Navy operators, is essential to successful at-sea operations. The rapid worldwide proliferation of modern, quiet, and relative inexpensive diesel submarines has made active sonar a critical component to the Navy, as this is the only method available to counter the threat of an unseen modern diesel submarine. Sonar operators must be skilled in the complexities of active sonar operation and analysis and must maintain this expertise. The designated Atlantic Fleet sonar testing and training area, known as the Atlantic Fleet Active Sonar Training (AFAST) area, encompasses the waters and their associated substrates within and adjacent to existing operating areas, located along the East Coast and within the Gulf of Mexico. The operating areas include designated ocean areas near fleet concentration areas (i.e., homeports) where the majority of routine Navy training and research and development activities occur. Navy training exercises are not confined to the operating areas; some active sonar activities or portions of these activities are conducted seaward of the operating areas and a limited amount of active sonar use occurs shoreward of the operating areas. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, under which the navy would continue to conduct sonar exercises within and adjacent to the operating areas, are considered in this final EIS. Under all four alternatives, only active sonar systems with an operating frequency greater than 200 kilohertz (kHz) are analyzed. active sonar systems with an operating frequency greater than 200 kHz were not analyzed as these signals attenuate rapidly during propagation (30 decibels per kilometer of more signal spreading losses). resulting in very short propagation distances. In addition, such frequencies are outside the known hearing range of most marine mammals. Although there is no direct data on auditory thresholds for any species of concern, anatomical evidence strongly suggests that their inner ears are well adapted for low frequency hearing. Under Action Alternative 1, fixed active sonar areas would be designated using an environmental analysis to determine locations that would minimize impacts to biological resources, while still meeting operational requirements. These areas would be available for use year-round. Under Action Alternative 2, active sonar areas would be designated, but the areas would be adjusted seasonally to minimize impacts to marine mammals. Under Alternative 3, the results of environmental analyses conducted for alterative 1 and 2 were utilized in conjunction with qualitative environmental analysis to identify areas of increased awareness. Active sonar would not be conducted within these areas of increased action. The No Action Alternative, which would not limit radar us to designated areas or seasons, has been selected as the preferred Alternative. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would support and maintain Navy Atlantic Fleet training as well as maintenance and research, development, testing, and evaluation for the mid- and high-frequency active sonar that is coincident with and substantially similar to Atlantic Fleet training activities. These exercises would help maintain, train, and equip combat-ready naval forces capable of winning battles, deterring aggression, and maintaining freedom of the seas. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Testing of, and training with, the equipment could result in marine mammal injuries and poisoning due to vessel collisions, entanglement in expended equipment, sediment contamination, and water quality degradation. Exposure of mid- and high-frequency sound could disorient marine mammals, resulting in groundings and animal death. High-frequency noise could damage the hearing ability of the mammals.

Although there is no direct data on auditory thresholds for any species of concern, anatomical evidence strongly suggests that their inner ears are well adapted for low frequency hearing. Under Action Alternative 1, fixed active sonar areas would be designated using an environmental analysis to determine locations that would minimize impacts to biological resources, while still meeting operational requirements. These areas would be available for use year-round. Under Action Alternative 2, active sonar areas would be designated, but the areas would be adjusted seasonally to minimize impacts to marine mammals. Under Alternative 3, the results of environmental analyses conducted for alterative 1 and 2 were utilized in conjunction with qualitative environmental analysis to identify areas of increased awareness. Active sonar would not be conducted within these areas of increased action. The No Action Alternative, which would not limit radar us to designated areas or seasons, has been selected as the preferred Alternative. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would support and maintain Navy Atlantic Fleet training as well as maintenance and research, development, testing, and evaluation for the mid- and high-frequency active sonar that is coincident with and substantially similar to Atlantic Fleet training activities. These exercises would help maintain, train, and equip combat-ready naval forces capable of winning battles, deterring aggression, and maintaining freedom of the seas. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Testing of, and training with, the equipment could result in marine mammal injuries and poisoning due to vessel collisions, entanglement in expended equipment, sediment contamination, and water quality degradation. Exposure of mid- and high-frequency sound could disorient marine mammals, resulting in groundings and animal death. High-frequency noise could damage the hearing ability of the mammals.

AN - 756826128; 13764-080512_0006 AB - PURPOSE: The designation of sonar use areas and the use of active sonar technology and the improved extended echo ranging (IEER) system during the Navy's Atlantic Fleet training exercises are proposed. For the purposes of this EIS process, all the foregoing technologies are considered to be sonar systems. The IEER system consists of an explosive source sonobouy (AN/SSQ-110A) and an air deployable active receiver (AN/SSQ-101). Under Presidential Proclamation 5828 of December 27, 1988, the United States extended its exercise of sovereignty and jurisdiction under international law to 12 nautical miles from land. The proposed action would occur within and outside of United States territorial waters. The training to b e undertaken would consist of operating mid- and high-frequency active sonar systems in a realistic environment to maximize operator familiarity. Active sonar, and the expertise in its use by the Navy operators, is essential to successful at-sea operations. The rapid worldwide proliferation of modern, quiet, and relative inexpensive diesel submarines has made active sonar a critical component to the Navy, as this is the only method available to counter the threat of an unseen modern diesel submarine. Sonar operators must be skilled in the complexities of active sonar operation and analysis and must maintain this expertise. The designated Atlantic Fleet sonar testing and training area, known as the Atlantic Fleet Active Sonar Training (AFAST) area, encompasses the waters and their associated substrates within and adjacent to existing operating areas, located along the East Coast and within the Gulf of Mexico. The operating areas include designated ocean areas near fleet concentration areas (i.e., homeports) where the majority of routine Navy training and research and development activities occur. Navy training exercises are not confined to the operating areas; some active sonar activities or portions of these activities are conducted seaward of the operating areas and a limited amount of active sonar use occurs shoreward of the operating areas. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, under which the navy would continue to conduct sonar exercises within and adjacent to the operating areas, are considered in this final EIS. Under all four alternatives, only active sonar systems with an operating frequency greater than 200 kilohertz (kHz) are analyzed. active sonar systems with an operating frequency greater than 200 kHz were not analyzed as these signals attenuate rapidly during propagation (30 decibels per kilometer of more signal spreading losses). resulting in very short propagation distances.

POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would support and maintain Navy Atlantic Fleet training as well as maintenance and research, development, testing, and evaluation for the mid- and high-frequency active sonar that is coincident with and substantially similar to Atlantic Fleet training activities. These exercises would help maintain, train, and equip combat-ready naval forces capable of winning battles, deterring aggression, and maintaining freedom of the seas. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Testing of, and training with, the equipment could result in marine mammal injuries and poisoning due to vessel collisions, entanglement in expended equipment, sediment contamination, and water quality degradation. Exposure of mid- and high-frequency sound could disorient marine mammals, resulting in groundings and animal death. High-frequency noise could damage the hearing ability of the mammals.

AN - 756826103; 13764-080512_0001 AB - PURPOSE: The designation of sonar use areas and the use of active sonar technology and the improved extended echo ranging (IEER) system during the Navy's Atlantic Fleet training exercises are proposed. For the purposes of this EIS process, all the foregoing technologies are considered to be sonar systems. The IEER system consists of an explosive source sonobouy (AN/SSQ-110A) and an air deployable active receiver (AN/SSQ-101). Under Presidential Proclamation 5828 of December 27, 1988, the United States extended its exercise of sovereignty and jurisdiction under international law to 12 nautical miles from land. The proposed action would occur within and outside of United States territorial waters. The training to b e undertaken would consist of operating mid- and high-frequency active sonar systems in a realistic environment to maximize operator familiarity. Active sonar, and the expertise in its use by the Navy operators, is essential to successful at-sea operations. The rapid worldwide proliferation of modern, quiet, and relative inexpensive diesel submarines has made active sonar a critical component to the Navy, as this is the only method available to counter the threat of an unseen modern diesel submarine. Sonar operators must be skilled in the complexities of active sonar operation and analysis and must maintain this expertise. The designated Atlantic Fleet sonar testing and training area, known as the Atlantic Fleet Active Sonar Training (AFAST) area, encompasses the waters and their associated substrates within and adjacent to existing operating areas, located along the East Coast and within the Gulf of Mexico. The operating areas include designated ocean areas near fleet concentration areas (i.e., homeports) where the majority of routine Navy training and research and development activities occur. Navy training exercises are not confined to the operating areas; some active sonar activities or portions of these activities are conducted seaward of the operating areas and a limited amount of active sonar use occurs shoreward of the operating areas. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, under which the navy would continue to conduct sonar exercises within and adjacent to the operating areas, are considered in this final EIS. Under all four alternatives, only active sonar systems with an operating frequency greater than 200 kilohertz (kHz) are analyzed. active sonar systems with an operating frequency greater than 200 kHz were not analyzed as these signals attenuate rapidly during propagation (30 decibels per kilometer of more signal spreading losses). resulting in very short propagation distances. In addition, such frequencies are outside the known hearing range of most marine mammals. Although there is no direct data on auditory thresholds for any species of concern, anatomical evidence strongly suggests that their inner ears are well adapted for low frequency hearing. Under Action Alternative 1, fixed active sonar areas would be designated using an environmental analysis to determine locations that would minimize impacts to biological resources, while still meeting operational requirements. These areas would be available for use year-round. Under Action Alternative 2, active sonar areas would be designated, but the areas would be adjusted seasonally to minimize impacts to marine mammals. Under Alternative 3, the results of environmental analyses conducted for alterative 1 and 2 were utilized in conjunction with qualitative environmental analysis to identify areas of increased awareness. Active sonar would not be conducted within these areas of increased action. The No Action Alternative, which would not limit radar us to designated areas or seasons, has been selected as the preferred Alternative. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would support and maintain Navy Atlantic Fleet training as well as maintenance and research, development, testing, and evaluation for the mid- and high-frequency active sonar that is coincident with and substantially similar to Atlantic Fleet training activities.

Previous studies using zebrafish demonstrated that crude oil exposure causes cardiogenic edema, and that the most abundant polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in weathered crude oils (tricyclic fluorenes, dibenzothiophenes, and phenanthrenes) are cardiotoxic, causing arrhythmia through a pathway that does not require activation of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR). We demonstrate here for Pacific herring, a species impacted by the Exxon Valdez oil spill, that the developing heart is the primary target of crude oil exposure. Herring embryos exposed to the effluent of oiled gravel columns developed dose-dependent edema and irregular cardiac arrhythmia soon after the heartbeat was established. At a dose that produced cardiac dysfunction in 100% of exposed embryos, tissue levels of tricyclic PAHs were below 1 *mmol/kg, suggesting a specific, high affinity target in the heart. These findings have implications for understanding the mechanism of tricyclic PAH cardiotoxicity, the development of biomarkers for the effects of PAH exposure in fish, and understanding the long-term impacts of oil spills and other sources of PAH pollution in aquatic environments.

In this paper, semihourly measurements of hydrocarbons and oxygenated VOCs (OVOCs) were taken at an urban site in Beijing in August 2005. C2-C5 alkenes, isoprene, and C1-C3 aldehydes were determined as 'key reactive species' by their OH loss rates. Principal component analysis (PCA) was used to define the major sources of reactive species and to classify the dominant air mass types at the sampling site. Vehicle exhaust was the largest contributor to reactive alkenes. More aged air masses with enriched OVOCs traveled mainly from the east or southeast of Beijing. The OVOC sources were estimated by a least-squares fit approach and included primary emissions, secondary sources, and background. Approximately half of the C1-C3 aldehydes were attributed to secondary sources, while regional background accounted for 21-23% of the mixing ratios of aldehydes. Primary anthropogenic emissions were comparable to biogenic contributions (10-16%).

C., Link, J. S., Moustahfid, H., and Overholtz, W. J. 2008. Evaluating the effect of predation mortality on forage species population dynamics in the Northeast US continental shelf ecosystem using multispecies virtual population analysis. - ICES Journal of Marine Science, 65: 1689-1700.An expanded version of multispecies virtual population analysis (MSVPA) is used to analyse the effects of predation by 14 key predators on Atlantic herring and Atlantic mackerel in the Northwest Atlantic ecosystem for the period 1982-2002. For herring, MSVPA produced greater abundance estimates than single-species assessments, especially for the youngest age classes. The average rate of predation mortality for herring aged 0 and 1 was also higher than the standard total natural mortality rate (0.2) for the 21-year time frame (0.84-3.2). The same was true for mackerel in this MSVPA (0.37-1.6). Consumptive removals of herring and mackerel generally increased over time. From 1999 to 2001, the biomass removed by predators exceeded each species' commercial landings. The sum of consumption and landings notably exceeded the multispecies maximum sustainable yield for herring for the years 1995-2002 and for mackerel for the period 1999-2002. We highlight the importance of accounting for predation on forage species in the context of changes to the fish community that have taken place in the Northwest Atlantic over the past few decades.

ASP symptoms include vomiting, diarrhea, and in more severe cases confusion, loss of memory, disorientation, and even coma or death. This paper describes the development and validation of a rapid, sensitive, enzyme linked immunosorbent assay test kit for detecting DA using a monoclonal antibody. The assay gives equivalent results to those obtained using standard high performance liquid chromatography, fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl high performance liquid chromatography, or liquid chromatography--mass spectrometry methods. It has a linear range from 0.1-3 ppb and was used successfully to measure DA in razor clams, mussels, scallops, and phytoplankton. The assay requires approximately 1.5 h to complete and has a standard 96-well format where each strip of eight wells is removable and can be stored at 4 degree C until needed. The first two wells of each strip serve as an internal control eliminating the need to run a standard curve. This allows as few as 3 or as many as 36 duplicate samples to be run at a time enabling real-time sample processing and limiting degradation of DA, which can occur during storage. There was minimal cross-reactivity in this assay with glutamine, glutamic acid, kainic acid, epi- or iso-DA. This accurate, rapid, cost-effective, assay offers environmental managers and public health officials an effective tool for monitoring DA concentrations in environment samples.

This has disrupted salmon migration and reduced salmon habitat by 90%. Several historical salmonid populations have been extirpated, and remaining populations are dramatically smaller than estimated historical population size. Dam removal will reconnect upstream habitats which will increase salmonid carrying capacity, and allow the downstream movement of sediment and wood leading to long-term aquatic habitat improvements. We hypothesize that salmonids will respond to the dam removal by establishing persistent, self-sustaining populations above the dams within one to two generations. We collected data on the impacts of the Elwha River dams on salmonid populations and developed predictions of species-specific response dam removal. Coho (Oncorhynchus kisutch), Chinook (O. tshawytscha), and steelhead (O. mykiss) will exhibit the greatest spatial extent due to their initial population size, timing, ability to maneuver past natural barriers, and propensity to utilize the reopened alluvial valleys. Populations of pink (O. gorbuscha), chum (O. keta), and sockeye (O. nerka) salmon will follow in extent and timing because of smaller extant populations below the dams. The initially high sediment loads will increase stray rates from the Elwha and cause deleterious effects in the egg to outmigrant fry stage for all species. Dam removal impacts will likely cause a lag in recolonization and population rebuilding. These negative sediment effects will be locally buffered by the extent of functioning floodplain, and management attempts to minimize sediment impacts. Resident life forms of char (Salvelinus confluentus), rainbow trout (O. mykiss), and cutthroat (O. clarki) will positively interact with their anadromous counterparts resulting in a positive population level response.

We examine how periphyton and benthic invertebrate assemblages vary across regulated and unregulated sections of the Elwha River and across different habitat types, and establish baseline data for tracking future changes following dam removal. We collected multiple years of data on physical habitat, water chemistry, periphyton, and benthic invertebrates from 52 sites on the Elwha River and a reference section on the Quinault River, a neighboring basin. We found that substrate in regulated river sections was coarser and less heterogeneous in size than in unregulated sections, and summer water temperature and specific conductivity higher. Periphyton biomass was also consistently higher in regulated than unregulated sections. Benthic invertebrate assemblage structure at sites above both dams was distinct from sites between and below the dams, due in large part to dominance of mayfly taxa compared to higher relative abundance of midges and non-insect taxa at downstream sites. Following dam removal, we anticipate that both periphyton and benthic invertebrate abundance and diversity will temporarily decrease between and below dams as a result of sediment released from behind the reservoirs. Over the long-term, increased floodplain heterogeneity and recolonization by anadromous fish will alter benthic invertebrate and periphyton assemblages via increases in niche diversity and inputs of marine-derived nutrients. The extended timeline predicted for Elwha River recovery and the complexities of forecasting ecological response highlights the need for more long-term assessments of dam removal and river restoration practices.

During the fall of 2005 and 2006, we radiotagged 49 adult coho salmon (O. kisutch) and tracked their movements between the Elwha River mouth and Elwha Dam (7.3 rkms). Half of all tagged fish were never relocated, likely due to emigration from the river. The remainder tended to migrate quickly and directly to one or two areas saturated with large woody debris and gravel, known to be high quality spawning habitat, and remain there. However, 7 of the 13 tagged fish in 2005 made multiple upstream and downstream movements prior to spawning. No tagged fish in either year migrated farther upstream than a rock weir approximately 4.9 km from the river mouth and 2.4 km downstream from the Elwha Dam, possibly indicating a migration barrier for coho salmon. We did not detect qualitative differences in migration behavior between hatchery and unknown-origin fish, but we did find that males moved slightly larger distances after tagging than females (average, 3.6 km for males, 2.5 km for females, t-test, P = 0.41). A large flow event on 6 November 2006 caused 8 of 11 tagged fish residing in the river to emigrate; none of these fish returned. Results both confirm ideas of coho salmon biology and raise concerns regarding environmental impacts on coho salmon recolonization following dam removal.

In particular the knowledge of the radial orbit error is of high interest in this context. Rosborough's theory [Rosborough, G. W., 1986 Satellite Orbit Perturbations due to the Geopotential, CSR-86-1 rep., Center for Space Research, Univ. of Texas, Austin.], amended by our newer works, describes Earth static gravity induced radial orbit error as a function of latitude, longitude and pass direction. Using this theory applied to precise long-term measurements of crossover altimetry we demonstrate the improvement in the accuracy of the orbit radius due to Earth gravity models, from the early 1980s (order of tens of meters), to the present (order of centimeters and less). The early models, with higher correlations between potential coefficients, show strong variations of the error in longitude as well as latitude, compared to the more recent fields. Currently the static gravity errors in the best of the Earth models are believed to be below the systematic environmental errors in the long-term altimetry.

In the first quarter of each calendar year from 1994 to 2006, the majority of shallow longline sets and associated loggerhead turtle bycatch were above 28N, which corresponds to the area near the North Pacific Subtropical Frontal Zone. Based on the thermal ranges of bycatch, sets and the satellite-tagged turtles, it was recommended that shallow sets should only be deployed in waters south of the 18.5C (~65.5F) isotherm to decrease loggerhead turtle bycatch. This recommendation formed the basis for the TurtleWatch tool, a map providing up-to-date information about the thermal habitat of loggerhead sea turtles in the Pacific Ocean north of the Hawaiin Islands. TurtleWatch was released to fishers and managers in electronic and paper formats on December 2006, to assist in decision making during the first quarter of 2007. Fishery information from 2007 was later compared with data for the years 2005 to 2006 to assess the response of the fishery to TurtleWatch. The observed fleet movement during the first quarter of 2007 was to the north of the 18.5C (~65.5F) isotherm (i.e. in the area recommended for avoidance by the TurtleWatch product) with increased effort and lower bycatch rates. We discuss possible reasons for this decrease in turtle bycatch north of the frontal zone together with future research directions which may lead to refinement of the TurtleWatch product.

Because distribution of marine cheloniid turtles appears to be related, in part, to sea surface temperature (SST), the ability to predict water temperature over the continental shelf could be useful in minimizing turtle-fishery interactions. We analyzed 10 yr of advanced very high resolution radiometer (AVHRR) SST imagery to estimate the proportion of 18 spatial zones, nearshore and offshore of Hatteras, North Carolina, USA (35N), to north of Cape Sable, Nova Scotia (44N), at temperatures >10 to 15C, by week. Detailed examples for 11C, the temperature employed by some management actions in the study area, and for 14C, the lowest temperature at which turtles were sighted by some studies in the area, demonstrate a predictable pattern of rapid warming in March and April, followed by rapid cooling in October and November, with nearshore waters warming more rapidly than those offshore. Of those loggerhead turtles Caretta caretta that stranded, were sighted, or were incidentally captured between Cape Hatteras, North Carolina, and Cape Cod, Massachusetts, those at lower latitudes occurred when 25% or more of the area reached a water temperature of 11C, while those in the northern zones did not occur until 50% or more of the area had reached a water temperature of 14C. This analysis provides a means of predicting marine cheloniid turtle presence, which can be helpful in regulating fisheries that seasonally interact with turtles.

Due to the small size of this albatross population (ca. 2000 birds) and their wide-ranging foraging behavior, opportunistic sightings contribute the majority of the data on their distribution. In contrast, detailed information exists on fishing effort. In this study, 2 methods were used to predict albatross distributions: (1) bounded interpolation of sightings and (2) distance to the 1000 m isobath. The fishery was grouped into 5 sectors based on fish processing mode and predominant product type. Locations and durations of observed trawls were associated with the predicted albatross densities and overlap was quantified using 2 metrics. Spatial and temporal overlap of albatrosses and the trawl fleet was influenced by the assumptions used to infer albatross distribution and also differed among trawl sectors depending on the metric used to calculate overlap. The sectors with the highest and lowest overlap changed seasonally. In general, overlap scores were lowest in winter and spring due to both low trawl effort (in winter) and low albatross sightings (winter and spring). Relative effort in trawl sectors, in addition to proximity to high predicted albatross densities, contributed to overlap rankings such that some sectors with greater effort in areas with lower predicted albatross density had higher overlap scores than sectors with less effort in areas with high predicted albatross densities.

AN - 742776219; pmid-19206770 AB - Localization of sound sources on the ground from an acoustic sensor array elevated on a tethered aerostat is considered. To improve estimation of the source coordinates, one should take into account refraction of sound rays due to atmospheric stratification. Using a geometrical acoustics approximation for a stratified moving medium, formulas for the source coordinates are derived that account for sound refraction. The source coordinates are expressed in terms of the direction of sound propagation as measured by the sensor array, its coordinates, and the vertical profiles of temperature and wind velocity. Employing these formulas and typical temperature and wind velocity profiles in the atmosphere, it is shown numerically that sound refraction is important for accurate predictions of the source coordinates. Furthermore, it is shown that the effective sound speed approximation, which is widely used in atmospheric acoustics, fails to correctly predict the source coordinates if the grazing angle of sound propagation is relatively large.

AN - 742775976; pmid-19206769 AB - A sound wave in supersaturated water vapor can modulate both the process of heat release caused by condensation, and subsequently, as a result, the resonance interaction of sound with the modulated heat release provides sound amplification. High-intensity atmospheric perturbations such as cyclones and thunderstorms generate infrasound, which is detectable at large distances from the source. The wave-condensation instability can lead to variation in the level of infrasound radiation by a developing cyclone, and this can be as a precursor of these intense atmospheric events.

AN - 69892981; 19079722 AB - Polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE) flame retardants have been implicated as disruptors of the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis. Animals exposed to PBDEs may show reduced plasma thyroid hormone (TH), but it is not known whether PBDEs impact TH-regulated pathways in target tissues. We examined the effects of dietary exposure to 2,2',4,4'-tetrabromodiphenyl ether (PBDE-47)-commonly the highest concentrated PBDE in human tissues-on plasma TH levels and on gene transcripts for glycoprotein hormone alpha-subunit (GPHalpha) and thyrotropin beta-subunit (TSHbeta) in the pituitary gland, the auto-induced TH receptors alpha and beta in the brain and liver, and the TH-responsive transcription factor basic transcription element-binding protein (BTEB) in the brain. Breeding pairs of adult fathead minnows (Pimephales promelas) were given dietary PBDE-47 at two doses (2.4 microg/pair/day or 12.3 microg/pair/day) for 21 days. Minnows exposed to PBDE-47 had depressed plasma thyroxine (T(4)), but not 3,5,3'-triiodothyronine (T(3)). This decline in T(4) was accompanied by elevated mRNA levels for TStHbeta (low dose only) in the pituitary. PBDE-47 intake elevated transcript for TH receptor alpha in the brain of females and decreased mRNA for TH receptor beta in the brain of both sexes, without altering these transcripts in the liver. In males, PBDE-47 exposure also reduced brain transcripts for BTEB. Our results indicate that dietary exposure to PBDE-47 alters TH signaling at multiple levels of the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis and provide evidence that TH-responsive pathways in the brain may be particularly sensitive to disruption by PBDE flame retardants.

AN - 69839971; 19037491 AB - The tissue-residue approach for toxicity assessment (TRA) is simply the use of tissue concentrations as the dose metric for characterizing toxicant potency. There are several advantages to using tissue residues over exposure concentrations (e.g., water, sediment, and diet) to calculate toxicity metrics. These include a large reduction in toxic response variability among all species for a given compound, an improved ability to address mixture toxicity, an increased use of information on modes and mechanisms of toxic action, a likely reduction in the number of species needed to characterize toxicant potency, the potential to improve ecological risk assessments, and the generation of more scientifically defensible tissue, water, and sediment toxicity guidelines or criteria. A keystone concept for the TRA is that the body/tissue residue reflects the target "dose" better than the traditional dose (e.g., water, air, soil/sediment, or diet) because the closer the dose surrogate is to the actual site of toxic action the less it is influenced by myriad modifying factors. Our goal for this review is to present the concepts and issues associated with the TRA and discuss some of the potential applications and expected improvements to the field of environmental toxicology that we believe will promote enhanced protection for species and ecosystems.

AN - 66673631; 19192775 AB - Three indoor sources (a gas stove, an electric stove, and an electric toaster oven) of ultrafine particles (UFPs) have been studied in an instrumented test house on the campus of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Previous studies have reported the concentration of ultrafine particles indoors due to cooking, but have been limited to particles with diameters greater than 10 nm. New technology now makes it possible to measure particles as small as 2 nm. Therefore, NIST conducted a study to measure typical concentrations and estimate emission rates and coagulation rates of UFPs in the size range from 2 to 64 nm. More than 150 tests were completed. Peak concentrations from the gas and electric stovetop burners/coils occurred at a particle size of approximately 5 nm. Total number concentrations were as much as 10 times greater than reported in previous studies of particle sizes above 10 nm. Because of these high concentrations of very small particles, coagulation was the dominant process affecting the evolution of the size distribution after the source was turned off. The observed number concentration changes due to coagulation were fit by models including corrections for van der Waals and viscosity forces and fractal shapes. Indoor/outdoor ratios indicated that less than 5% of the <10 nm particles penetrated the house. This suggests that outdoor sources of these ultrafine particles will not contribute substantially to human exposure if indoor sources are present.

The American Community Survey (ACS) provides a wide online array of social, economic, and demographic information about the nation, states, and local communities. These data can be used to teach concepts and skills, such as statistical literacy, and content areas, including social studies, geography, and mathematics. The ACS is updated annually, providing fresh, timely data for students each year. The handbook begins with a brief overview of the ACS: what it is, how it came about, and why it is important to high school teachers and students. Types of information and geographic areas covered by the ACS are described and explained to assist in understanding and correctly interpreting ACS data. Online access and examples that illustrate how you can incorporate ACS data into your activities or lesson plans to address a variety of social studies, geography, and mathematics standards. Eight technical appendixes are provided that discuss advanced applications and issues with the ACS: (1) Understanding and Using Single-Year and Multiyear Estimates; (2) Differences Between ACS and Decennial Census Sample Data; (3) Measures of Sampling Error; (4) Making Comparisons; (5) Using Dollar-Denominated Data; (6) Measures of Nonsampling Error; (7) Implications of Population Controls on ACS Estimates; and (8) Other ACS Resources.

Using ten weeks of automated contact history records, we analyze privacy and burden concerns but also examine other verbal and nonverbal interactions recorded by interviewers during contact with households. We conduct a multi-model multinomial logit analysis starting with a social environmental model (e.g., region, urbanicity), followed by the addition of process variables (e.g., number of noncontacts, mode of contact), and finally include the new household-level doorstep concerns (e.g., privacy concerns, too busy). The study found that the doorstep concerns greatly improved models predicting nonresponse relative to models including only environmental variables and basic contact history measures. Privacy concerns were significant in predicting interim refusals, but not final refusals. The effects of burden differed depending upon the particular doorstep concern used as an indicator of burden.

As suggested by the theory of interlinked contract, the transition from a planning economy to a market economy is a multifaceted process. In terms of market dynamics interlinking markets replace specialized markets, while in terms of governance dynamics, interlinked contracts give way to formal contracts. A good match between the markets structure and contractual structure is key to the success of transition. In particular, some China-specific institutions, like TVEs, the financial system and the restructuring of SOEs can be better understood within this framework. Broadly, the whole reform package in China also is in good accordance with the spirit of interlinked contract. Adapted from the source document.

GPS and satellite radar interferometry (InSAR) monitoring of the deformation of the caldera floor in the months prior to the eruption documented extraordinary inflation rates (1 cm/day). The total amount of uplift recorded since monitoring began in 1992 approached 5 m at the center of the caldera over the eight days of the eruption the caldera floor deflated a maximum of 5 m and subsquently renewed its inflation, but at a decelerating rate. To gain insight into the nature of the subsurface mass/density changes associated with the deformation, gravity measurements performed in 2005, 2006, and 2007 are compared to previous measurements from 2001-2002 when the volcano underwent a period of minor deflation and magma withdrawal. The residual gravity decrease between 2001-2002 and 2005 is among the largest ever recorded at an active volcano (-950 mu Gal) and suggests that inflation was accompanied by a relative density decrease in the magmatic system. Forward modeling of the residual gravity data in 4D (from 2002 to 2005) gives an estimate of the amount of vesiculation in the shallow sill required to explain the observed gravity variations. Geochemical constraints from melt inclusion and satellite remote-sensing data allow us to estimate the pre-eruptive gas content of the magma and place constraints on the thickness of the gas-rich sill necessary to produce the gravity anomalies observed. Results suggest that reasonable sill thicknesses (700-800 m) and bubble contents (10-50 volume %) can explain the large decrease in residual gravity prior to eruption. Following the eruption (2006 and 2007), the deformation and gravity patterns suggest re-equilibration of the pressure regime in the shallow magma system via a renewed influx of relatively gas-poor magma into the shallow parts of the system.

One of the major goals of the Green Turtle (Chelonia mydas) Recovery Plan is to determine the distribution and seasonal movements for all life stages of the green turtle. We know little about the origin of juvenile and subadult turtles or their behavior patterns and foraging ranges. Due to limited access and the cost of inwater research we lack important information on habitat usage. An increasing number of beach nourishment projects in Florida warrant focusing research efforts on marine turtles using nearshore reefs. In Brevard County, the densest reef structures form a narrow band that extends from the immediate shoreline approximately 100 m seaward in shallow water (less than 4 meters deep). Visual transects were conducted to establish the presence and locations of sea turtles in the area. Turtles were captured using tangle nets set east of the reef formations. We captured 21 juvenile C. mydas during the first year. We photographed portions of the reef and recorded the predominant vegetation. An esophageal flushing technique was used to collect a foraging sample. Chelonia mydas consumed a diversity of marine algae including: Gelidium spp., Gracilaria mammillaris, Ceramium spp., Jania adhaerens, Ulva spp., Chaetomorpha spp. and marine invertebrates including: snails, jellyfish, hydroids and tunicates. The average straight carapace length was 37.0 cm with a size distribution that ranged from 26.4 cm to 64.6 cm.

One of the measures taken to protect hatchlings from predators on beaches is to collect hatchlings that hatch in early morning and keep them in containers of seawater (to avoid desiccation) to release at night. Observation of these hatchlings in April 2002 and September 2003 showed that 5% of hatchlings in 2002 and more than 10% in 2003 presented either asymmetrical distribution of pleural carapacial scutes or asymmetrical malformation of vertebral and pleural carapacial scutes. Mutant hatchlings were also about 1 cm longer than apparently normal individuals (CCL = 4.5 cm; CCW = 4.4 cm). Mutations may occur spontaneously but are relatively rare and it is likely that they were not caused by contamination by petroleum hydrocarbons or trace metals, as values of these were estimated as within ranges found elsewhere. Higher occurrence of malformations may occur also due to exposure to radioactive materials. A recent study showed that seaweeds (eg. Chaetomorpha spp. and Enteromorpha sp.) and sea-grasses (eg. Halodule sp., Halophila spp. and Sargassum spp.) known to be important components of the diet of these turtles, are contaminated with several radionuclides including the man-made Cesium-137. The algae and seagrass were collected from a major feeding ground for this turtle species in the area. An estimation of radionuclide concentrations in hatchlings is needed.

However, recent results of satellite telemetry conducted in Japan revealed that, after the nesting season, female green turtles also inhabit oceanic areas. In these oceanic habitats they presumably feed on planktonic animals, as do immature turtles. This suggests the presence of life-history polymorphism in female green turtles as has been found in female loggerheads. In this study we quantified what percentage of green turtles nesting on Ogasawara Islands, Japan used neritic or oceanic habitats by measuring stable carbon and nitrogen isotope ratios (d13C and d15N) in their egg-yolks. A total of 89 females were examined in 2003-2004. Comparisons between both isotope ratios in green turtle egg-yolks and prey items indicated that 70% of the females used neritic habitats and 30% of them used oceanic habitats. There were no relationships between body size and the isotope ratios, indicating a lack of size-related differences in feeding habitat use for adult female green turtles, which is in contrast with female loggerheads. In addition, four females were tracked by satellite to verify the inferences from stable isotope analyses.

Although there is information on bycatch levels, no studies to date have identified and assessed marine habitats used by sea turtles as foraging grounds. During the present study surveys were conducted at inshore waters to identify critical foraging grounds for sea turtles and to generate data on species composition and size frequency of species occurring in these areas. Baseline information was obtained from previous reports and interviews with fishermen; according to these sources three of the five species of sea turtles in Peru, the black turtle (Chelonia mydas agassizii), olive ridley (Lepidochelys olivacea) and leatherback turtle (Dermochelys coriacea), were present in shallow bays within the 2 km of coastal waters. Study sites were the Paracas (13 50' LS) and the Sechura Bays (05.50' LS), on the central and northern coasts, respectively. The methodology involved a collaborative effort between fisherman and researchers for capturing sea turtles using gillnets. Biological and ecological data were recorded. Species captured were juvenile and adult black turtles and adult olive ridley turtles. Threats identified for the studied areas were trawling, direct harvest, fishing, scallops farming and extraction of algae. We stress the need of systematic studies on the critical areas identified, with close collaboration of stakeholders to ensure the development of a long term conservation program if threats to sea turtles are expected to be mitigated.

The primary objectives of this project were to visually monitor the number of turtles utilising a limited section of reef and to study behaviour. Observations were made while snorkeling in the same location several times per week. Digital photographs were taken of as many turtles as possible each time and scute patterns, particularly on the head, were compared in order to positively identify individuals. Over thirty different turtles have been recorded. The majority of these are juveniles, ranging in size from approximately 25cm to over 55cm. The turtles appear to be attracted to this area by an abundance of red algae, such as Bryothamnion sp. and Gracilaria sp., upon which they feed extensively. About a third of the turtles recorded have been observed regularly for a year or longer while more than half have been seen repeatedly over several months. A few were present only occasionally, with up to eight months between sightings. Several individuals have consistently permitted close approach, providing the opportunity to note certain interesting behaviours. For example, turtles smaller than 35cm show a tendency to float on the surface taking several quick breaths whereas larger turtles usually take just one deeper breath. Flipper slapping similar to that documented in Hawaii (by Peter Bennett and Ursula Keuper-Bennett) has often been noticed, usually associated with agitation.

Of these, 214 (84%) were euthanized due to advanced FP. The remainder were found dead in fresh condition. Turtles were assigned a standardized tumour severity score ranging from 1 (Nightly tumoured) to 3 (heavily tumoured). Turtles in tumour score 2 and 3 categories predominated and tumour score 3 turtles were significantly larger than the other two categories. Total cross-sectional area of tumours increased significantly with SCL. There were significantly more tumours in the front than rear of turtles. Eighty percent of turtles had oral tumours and 51% of turtles with oral tumours had tumours in the glottis. Thirty nine percent of turtles had internal tumours and these were most often seen in the lung, kidney and heart. Fibromas predominated in lung, kidney and musculoskeletal system; whereas, myxofibromas were more common in intestines and spleen. Fibrosarcomas of low-grade malignancy were most often in the heart and heart tumours had predilection for the right atrium. Turtles with FP had significant additional complications including inflammation with vascular flukes, bacterial infections, poor body condition and necrosis of the salt gland. Turtles with oral tumours were more likely to have secondary complications such as pneumonia. Most turtles came from the island of Oahu (74%) followed by Maui (20%), Hawaii, Molokai and Lanai (<3% each). On Oahu, significantly more turtles were stranded along the northwestern and northeastern shores.

To investigate this situation further, a workshop was held on St. Catherines Island, GA in November of 2003. Fifteen people attended including: turtle biologists from four states, veterinarians, toxicologists and immunologists. The group determined that there was an increasing trend in strandings of debilitated sea turtles from 1992-2002 and a substantial increase in 2003. The species composition of these strandings vas primarily loggerheads. The stranding of debilitated turtles occurred all year in Florida; however, strandings were found to be concentrated in the spring and summer in the other states. The turtles were stranded across the southeastern US coastal region; however, areas of high stranding density were identified. A debilitated turtle was defined as emaciated with small barnacles covering the skin. Health assessment and necropsy data presented indicated the turtles were being affected by secondary bacterial and parasitic infections with the primary cause still to be determined. Preliminary contaminant data in debilitated turtles showed significantly higher blood levels of polychlorinated biphenyls and organochlorine pesticides compared to apparently healthy turtles, while mercury levels in scutes were not significantly different between debilitated and healthy turtles. The group determined several areas that need to be addressed over the next 2 years. Standardized protocols have been developed for a wide range of antemortem and postmortem diagnostics. Preliminary results from 10 necropsies and 3 cases followed through the rehabilitation process will be discussed.

The device works in a fashion similar to that of a displacement-controlled uniaxial tensile machine. The device was calibrated using a tipless atomic force microscope (AFM) cantilever and shows excellent agreement with the calculated spring constant. A step input was applied to a single, adherent fibroblast cell and the viscoelastic response was characterized with a mechanical model. The adherent fibroblast was imaged by use of epifluorescence and phase contrast techniques.

This is one of the priorities for marine turtle research and conservation in Venezuela. Beach walks and underwater inspections, in conjunction with data from published reports and information from fishermen and local settlers, allowed for the description of the biotic and abiotic components of the principal nesting and feeding areas. I confirmed and described more than 20 nesting beaches for Dermochelys coriacea, Caretta caretta, Chelonia mydas and Eretmochelys imbricata. Most beaches are spacious, with less than a 10 slope and relatively little urban and tourist development. The main factors limiting turtle survival are nest poaching and habitat degradation. Feeding areas are located on coral reefs, on the edges of rocky substrates, near algal and sea grass beds and over sandy substrates. On average, coral reef communities are located at a maximum depth of 16 m with massive corals and a high abundance of octocorals and tubular sponges, principally Aplysina sp. and Xetonpongia sp. Algal communities are dominated by patches of Sirigodium sp., Halophila sp., Sargasum sp. and Dictiota sp. The main threat to turtles in feeding areas is incidental catch with nets and long lines. This study highlights the need to develop conservation plans for the conservation of sea turtle nesting and feeding areas along the Venezuelan coast.

Each turtle undergoes a general physical examination with digital photographs, tagging, morphometrics including body depth and skin biopsy for genetic analysis. Blood samples for a complete blood count and biochemistry are also taken. A body weight, laparoscopy for gender determination and cloacal and external lesion cultures for microbiology including antimicrobial sensitivity are obtained from a subset of turtles. When available, fecal samples are obtained for parasitology. Scute scrapings for heavy metal analysis and subcutaneous fat for organochlorine assays are being collected for other on-going projects. To date, 50 loggerheads have been sampled with two turtles sampled twice and one sampled three times. Hematology and biochemical data are similar to that seen in juvenile loggerheads sampled within Pamlico Sound during the fall of 1997 and summer of 2000. Associations between hematologic and biochemical parameters are stronger with body depth than with weight, SCL or Fulton's body condition index indicating the potential usefulness of this measurement. Cloacal cultures have included 142 isolates of 26 different species, of which 45% exhibit endogenous antimicrobial resistance to 3 or more antimicrobials tested.

Estimated carapace lengths were 10-60 cm and some animals (N = 4) showed signs of fibropapillomatosis. The predominance of green sea turtle sightings (25 in 5 trips) have been in clear water in the shallow headwater reaches of creeks that contain an abundance of submerged algal-covered logs and groundwater seeps. We postulate that these difficult to access areas may provide previously unknown foraging and possibly nursery grounds for this endangered species. We present sightings location data for a two year time period during which we conducted five visits to the site. We have recently secured funding from US Fish and Wildlife Service to initiate a green sea turtle tagging study in the BSC complex to determine whether these turtles are resident in BSC or if they use the area only as a stopover point in their migration routes. We will also establish activity and habitat use patterns through the combined use of mark-recapture, satellite tracking and molecular genetic techniques. We plan to collect stomach contents to perform diet analysis and record evidence of disease for all animals captured.

Current recommendations for the medical management of stranded sea turtles often include empirical choices of antibiotics. Ideally, antibiotic choice should be based on culture and sensitivity results, which may increase treatment success, decrease treatment duration and minimize the occurrence of bacterial resistance. In the case of the septic animal, the bacteria present in the blood would usually be the most logical target for antimicrobial treatment. Treatment appropriateness, in human medicine, can be increased from 63% with empirical antibiotic choice to 97% after blood culture results. This clinical study, involving 15 stranded sea turtles of varying species (including Carretta carretta, Lepidochelys kempi and Chelonia mydas), demonstrates the usefulness of blood culture and anti-microbial sensitivities, the appropriate venipuncture and culture technique, the correlation with Woodwork and subsequent clinical improvement and the organisms most commonly recovered in debilitated sea turtles. All bacteria grown in our study demonstrated multi-drug resistance, including common resistance to ceftazadime (Fortaz), a popular empirical choice. In our study, treatment appropriateness, based on alternative choices other than ceftazidime, was increased from approximately 40% to 80%. Blood cultures, CBCs and biochemistries were repeated prior to release of the animals to further demonstrate treatment success.

9225274 AB - This paper reviews the history of fishing, regulations, and stock assessments for Florida's anadromous shad species-American shad Alosa sapidissima and hickory shad A. mediocris-and assesses their status in Florida's St. Johns River based on a creel survey and an electrofishing survey. Historically, these anadromous shads constituted an important fishery in Florida. Landings were first reported in the 1860s, and scientific assessments occurred in the 1950s, 1960s, and early 1970s. Netting restrictions effectively ended the commercial fishery in the 1990s. We used recreational catch rates as a proxy for stock size and found it to be low but stable during 1993-2005. The mean length of American shad was significantly less during 2002-2005 than it was historically (1958), and the recent proportions of female American and hickory shad were significantly lower than the historical proportions. These data were interpreted as demonstrating a negative, but perhaps only an historical, effect of fishing. The rebuilding of Florida's anadromous shad stocks via fishing regulations was not evident; this may require more time, or perhaps factors other than fishing are interfering with the rebuilding process.

These estuarine systems are also an important nursery habitat for a variety of commercially valuable marine fishes, including southern flounder. In the fall large juvenile flounder are taken by a variety of fisheries, including bottom-set gill nets, as the fish migrate out of the sounds into the ocean. Sea turtles residing in the area also encounter these gears and turtle by-catch in gill nets has become a serious management issue in North Carolina. We used a novel approach to look at the interactions of sea turtles with flounder gill net fisheries in Pamlico Sound, North Carolina by addressing the issue from the perspective of the turtles. We tracked 45 sea turtles with satellite telemetry and examined their patterns of habitat use with respect to the distribution of gill nets. In addition, we used a predator/prey model to quantify the degree of spatial overlap between turtles and nets. Satellite tagged turtles were present in the Sound from September through December during the entire fishery season. Turtles present in the flounder fishing grounds spent most of their time in the deepwater section, which has been seasonally closed to large-mesh gill net fishing by the National Marine Fisheries Service since 1999.

Loggerhead nest numbers have risen from an average of 9,300 in the 1980's to a high of 17,629 in 1998. Green turtles have exhibited a biennial pattern of high and low nesting activity, progressing from fewer than 300 per year in the 1980's to 2,588 in 2002. Leatherback nest production was negligible in the 1980's and early 1990's but rose to 37 in 2003. Establishment of the Carr Refuge in 1990, protecting nesting habitats for these three species, was a significant advance for marine turtle conservation in the United States. Over the same 23 year span catch-per-unit-effort (CPUE) rates have shown a similar rising trend in juvenile green turtle abundance in a portion of the Indian River Lagoon encompassed by the adjacent Pelican Island NWR. Loggerhead CPUE rates were relatively unchanged during this period. These positive trends in the status of two disparate life history stages imply a degree of success for marine turtle conservation in the United States.

The schedule included an initial two days of regional meetings followed by three days of the main symposium, and a final day that included the Marine Turtle Specialist Group (MTSG) meeting. The venue for the symposium proved to be very functional. The meeting facilities included a Harborside Center that served as the location for the opening social, the poster sessions, and the coffee breaks. Thanks to the efforts of Janet Hochella (the Vendor Chair) and other volunteers, an excellent "Turtle Square" area was set up in the Harborside Center that included kiosks for vendors and many sea turtle organizations. The location of the hotel on River Street in the historic district of Savannah also proved to be very functional since there were numerous restaurants, pubs, shops, and historic landmarks within walking distance.

The Core and Pamlico-Albemarle Sounds of North Carolina support significant numbers of early and late juvenile green turtles. The animals comprising the North Carolina foraging aggregation primarily originate from the east coast of Florida and Mexico with the remainder coming from Costa Rica, Ascension Island and Guinea Bissau and finally Aves Island and Surinam. We detected trends regarding population genetic structure among both nesting and foraging locations in the Atlantic. We suggest that currents are the primary determinants of the composition of the foraging ground aggregation as those foraging aggregations located near areas where multiple currents converge exhibit high diversity both genetically and compositionally. We also suggest that green turtles may be natally homing to foraging grounds, but on a larger scale than that of loggerhead turtles (Caretta caretta).

This work presents an overview of the reported incidental captures of leatherback turtles by Uruguayan industrial and artisanal fisheries, synthesizing data obtained from different sources. The PNOFA/DINARA (National Program of Onboard Observers of the Tuna Fleet/National Direction of Aquatic Resources) provided us information accounting for a total of 450 sets in which 647,722 hooks were deployed, from 1998 to January 2004. Seventy-two D. coriacea were incidentally captured during these sets, which occurred in the Uruguayan EEZ as well as in international waters of the South Atlantic Ocean. For the coastal bottom trawl fishery, the PROMACODA/Karumbe (Onboard Tagging and Data Collection Program) has recorded 5 incidental captures of D. coriacea during 2 years of monitoring on fishing vessels that operated in the Uruguayan continental shelf, generally in the Rio de la Plata estuary. Since July 2002, Karumbe" has documented 6 reports of D. coriacea individuals incidentally captured by artisanal fisheries, closer than 10 nautical miles from the Atlantic and estuarine coast of Uruguay. The monitoring has not been continuous in the trawl and artisanal fisheries and just a small part of the total fishing effort of these fleets has been observed. This analysis gives new information on leatherback occurrences in the South Atlantic Ocean and shows that adult and subadult leatherback turtles are incidentally captured year-round by Uruguayan fisheries. Most of the incidental captures recorded in the longline fishery occurred over the continental slope and 95% of the individuals were discarded alive but we have no estimation of post release mortality. We conclude that further monitoring of these fisheries is needed to better understand the quantity and spationtemporal distribution of the leatherback turtle bycatch events produced by the Uruguayan fisheries in the South Atlantic Ocean. We suggest as a priority to test the efficacy and feasibility of implementing bycatch and mortality mitigation measures.

This study examines the nest placement behavior of loggerhead, green and leatherback sea turtles in Juno Beach, Florida, USA, which hosts approximately 1000 nests per mile annually. Multi-year nesting surveys provided distance to water line/dune and subsequent emergence success data for a randomly selected subset of nests, while sub-meter GPS data were collected at all nest sites and at the apex of aborted crawls. Nest positions were correlated to elevation and slope within the framework of a Geographic Information System. Though the proximal cue(s) that trigger nesting behavior remain unknown, patterns of nest placement were observed that suggest a consistent, non-random adaptive strategy that was demonstrated on both pre-existing and artificially-widened beaches within the study area. On the non-widened portions of beach, loggerhead and leatherback turtles clumped their nests near mid-beach, while green turtles clumped nests nearer the dune, corresponding to areas where low survivorship was at its minimum for each species. Though the widened beach seemingly provided additional nesting habitat, the range of distances each species nested from the high water line remained consistent with those observed on the pre-existing beaches; however, green turtles more often crawled to landward sites. The crawl length consistencies across beach types for each species suggest that either the requirements for site choice were met in the seaward portion of the widened beach, or there are preferred species-specific ranges for crawl distance.

Immediately after laying eggs, turtles were weighed using a tripod and pulley system. Ten turtles weighing 242 - 323 kg were anesthetized using initial dosages of 3 - 8 mg/kg ketamine combined with 30 - 80 kg/kg medetomidine and administered IV in the external jugular vein using a 9 cm 18 ga spinal needle that was left in place through the procedure as a rigid catheter. Six turtles received supplemental doses of 2.6 - 3.9 mg/kg ketamine combined with 0 - 39 kg/kg medetomidine. Lower dosages were employed initially to ensure against overdoses and to reduce chances of residual effects following a return to the water, but the degree of immobilization required for successful ERGs required step-wise dose increases to the required level of anesthesia. Respiratory rate, heart rate, electrocardiogram (ECG), cloacal temperature and venous blood gases were monitored and blood was collected for hematology and plasma biochemistries. At the end of the ERG procedure, atipamezole was administered at 150 - 420 kg/kg (5x the dose of medetomidine), 1/2 IM and 1/2 IV. The turtles were monitored and prevented from re-entering the water until normal behavior had returned. Surf entry was judged subjectively. No apparent mortalities or serious anesthetic complications occurred. The observed within-season return nesting rate of anesthetized turtles was comparable to turtles weighed but not anesthetized in the same time span.

The beach is the egg incubator and provides the thermal, hydric and respiratory environments appropriate for successful embryonic development. How the beach operates as an incubator is not especially well understood and our knowledge of the incubation environment provided by the beach is limited to a relatively sparse phenomenological data set collected from a few beaches, chiefly describing temperature in the nest chamber. Marine beaches are chiefly composed of granular materials such as sand of various origins and size distributions, water and gas and are bounded on one side by liquid water and on the other by the atmospheric boundary layer. The beach exchanges energy, water and gases with the overlying atmospheric boundary layer and thus is strongly influenced both by climate and weather. It is the interaction of beach and boundary layer heat and water exchange and transport of heat and water within the beach that determines the developmental environment of the eggs. I will present a model (Chung and Horton, 1987) which calculates the temperature and water content within the beach as a function of depth and time as well as energy and water exchange at the beach surface. The model allows us to ask a variety of what- if questions which provide testable predictions as well as insight into how beaches work as incubators.

For this reason, we intended to characterize and compare them with the rest of the studied rookeries that shared at least one haplotype, in terms of phylogenetic relationships, diversity indexes and population structure, as inferred from two partial sequences of mtDNA control region. Previous studies have rendered similar information for each partial sequence, suggesting the existence of a hot region for haplotype definition in the three species. In Cuban rookeries, haplotypes of a single lineage are present, thus determining low nucleotide diversity, except in loggerheads, where haplotypes of non-related lineages concurs. Loggerhead and green turtle Cuban rookeries showed high haplotype diversity, while in hawksbill it is low. Green turtles are the most philopatric, with 100% endemic haplotypes originated in less time than the distance among Cuban rookeries and the rest. Hawksbills followed with 50% and then loggerheads with a scarce 20%. Besides, in the latter two species, the origin of haplotypes is older than the distance among Cuban rookeries and the rest. The structuring among Cuban rookeries and the rest is maximal in green turtles, while in some hawksbill and loggerhead rookeries structuring is lost.

Genetic samples and biometric data have been collected from these individuals between August 1998 and November 2003. A total of 305 samples were analyzed, amplifying a fragment of the mitochondrial DNA control region and 9 microsatellite loci. We compared results from mitochondrial DNA mixed stock analysis and Fst pairwise comparisons and factorial correspondence analysis based on microsatellite genotypes. It has been suggested that feeding ground composition may vary seasonally, with the presence of different stocks originating from different locations at different times of year and that different subgroups (such as stocks or cohorts) may also be subdivided within a feeding population. Although pooling across years, sexes and stage classes may enhance the accuracy of mixed stock analysis, we determined whether significant genetic differentiation occurs between subsets of the Corisco Bay samples. We found that individuals can be clearly distinguished by rookery of origin and that genetic differentiation could be detected between males and females and between the turtles sampled in 2003 versus previous seasons. We also showed that genetic analysis can be a valuable tool to describe the illegal trade and commercialization of turtles, allowing us to track individuals from their capture site to the marketplace. Hunting green turtles is a way of life for the local Benga tribe and as many as 300-500 individuals are captured every year in Corisco Bay for sale in nearby urban centers. Additional threats in the area include oil exploitation and development. We have shown the importance of this green turtle feeding population on national, regional and global scales. Ultimately, We hope this research will contribute to the development of more effective conservation and management strategies for the Corisco Bay feeding population.

Unfortunately, there have been historical problems with widespread, long-term and proper use of conservation technologies. In order to better understand the adoption process for conservation technologies and what influences the success of the process, I studied the adoption of TEDs by the U.S. shrimp fishery. I conducted 36 on-site interviews with key informants selected with purposive and snowball sampling of representatives from the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), state governments, Sea Grant (which is the program charged with marine extension, industry and conservation groups). In addition, I analyzed nearly 300 documents from NMFS, Sea Grant, NGOs and state governments using grounded theory. This technique allowed me to identify categories and concepts that emerge from the text and to link these concepts to existing theories and models, specifically diffusion theory and technology transfer.

A strategy, combining a series of activities aiming to reduce this mortality, was put together in order to mitigate these impacts. The introduction of circle hooks (shown by NOAA researchers to result in fewer and more benign hookings) to replace the traditional J hooks is being promoted through the development of a voluntary program of hook exchanges that enables the fishers to test circle hooks under normal fishing conditions. Fishers are given the new hooks at no cost and with a commitment to return their original hooks to them if they were not satisfied with the results. A simple experimental design allows statistical comparisons among hooks types and sizes and observers are aboard many of the vessels that are part of the experiment to record detailed data on the results. In addition, instruments and procedures are introduced, demonstrated and provided when possible, to increase the chances of survival of hooked or entangled turtles. The problems, proposed solutions and results obtained are discussed with the fishers at frequent workshops. This program began in September 2003 in Ecuador and more recently similar programs have begun in Peru, Colombia, Panama and Guatemala. Results of the experiments and the information acquired will be discussed. More than 90 vessels are testing circle hooks in Ecuador and the results have been satisfactory in that the mortality of sea turtles has been reduced without reducing the catches of the target species.

The purpose of this study was to test the affects of physical oceanographic features, specifically tidal currents, on green sea turtle movements in a foraging area in Baja California Sur, Mexico. We used GPS-VHF telemetry to track fourteen turtles for 6.3 to 59.5 hours each during July and August, 2003. Over 10,000 location positions were recorded and tracks ranged from 3.4 to 47.8 km in length. Tracks were analyzed to determine mean speed and direction of the turtle for half-hour intervals throughout the duration of the track. At the same time, an Acoustic Doppler Profiler (ADP) measured tidal current direction and magnitude throughout the study area. Analysis of ADP data allowed us to quantitatively predict the tidal speed and direction that a turtle encountered during its movements in the study area. Results indicate that turtle movement is highly influenced by tidal currents with respect to both speed and direction. Diel patterns of turtles in Estero Banderitas are markedly different than those described in non-tidal foraging areas. Similar interactions between turtles and tides probably exist in tidally influenced turtle foraging areas throughout the world. Because many of these areas are established or proposed marine protected areas, an understanding of the how turtles interact with tides can be invaluable in designing biologically accurate and effective sanctuaries.

Pacific leatherbacks are generally smaller, have a lower reproductive output and are declining in numbers more precipitously than their Atlantic counterparts, despite similar incidental fishing pressures in the two oceans. However, the causes of these inter-population differences remain undetermined. We combined our measurements of field metabolic rates (FMRs) for adult female leatherbacks and information from the literature to calculate energy costs of reproduction, migration and foraging activities. Our energy budget estimations indicate that differential resource limitation might lengthen remigration intervals for Pacific leatherbacks as compared to Atlantic leatherbacks, thus decreasing the Pacific population's reproductive success and increasing its exposure to risk of pelagic fisheries mortality. Stochastic resource availability related to El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO), Combined with energetic constraints, is probably exacerbating the effects of a high incidental fisheries mortality rate currently responsible for plummeting Pacific leatherback populations. Therefore, management strategies for fisheries should be more conservative and allow little, if any, mortality of leatherbacks if there is to be any reasonable hope for recovery of this species.

A number of researchers have inferred habitat preferences, but only one study has quantified the use of benthic habitats by Kemp's ridley turtles. Estimates of habitat use and availability must be calculated to test for habitat preferences and these analyses can then be used to identify essential habitats. Telemetric monitoring and geographic information system (GIS) mapping were employed to investigate the habitat preferences of Kemp's ridley turtles in the Ten Thousand Islands of southwest Florida. The movements of turtles were monitored via radio and sonic telemetry and the locational data were used to identify their habitat use. Substrates were characterized and floral/faunal were classified from benthic samples collected within the area occupied by the turtles. A GIS database of benthic habitats was used to map the bottom types within the study area and to subsequently quantify habitat availability and use. Habitat preferences were tested by comparing the proportion of habitat used by turtles relative to the availability of habitats. Kemp's ridley turtles in the Ten Thousand Islands exhibited a preference for areas of shell-encrusted worm tubes and the associated sessile invertebrates. A similar affinity to live-bottom areas was reported in the Cedar Keys of west-central Florida, though limerock outcroppings provided the hard-bottom substrate. A pattern is emerging in western Florida that live-bottom areas are an essential developmental habitat for Kemp's ridley turtles.

The overall impact of these measures is often unknown because there are few long time-series showing trends in population sizes. However, a review of recently published time-series of nesting numbers for both green turtles and leatherback turtles shows surprisingly quick population recovers over the last couple of decades. Importantly, even small populations have been shown to recover rapidly, suggesting that Allee effects do not impede turtle conservation efforts in operation worldwide.

However, interpretation of analytical results requires accurate information on the fractionation between tissues. This information is not currently available for marine turtles, hence limiting the applicability of the technique to this group of animals. The aim of this study is to fill this gap. Samples of carapace, skin, muscle and blood from loggerhead sea turtles (Caretta caretta) were collected in the Balearic Islands (Western Mediterranean). MANOVA revealed significant differences in the isotopic signatures of the considered tissues. Muscle (meancstd; delta 15N=8.9c0.91 0/00 and delta 13C=-18.4c0.2 0/00) was depleted in 13C but enriched in 15N when compared with skin (delta 15N=8.1c1.3 0/00 and delta 13C=-16.9c0.6 0/00), a pattern consistent with the higher turnover rate of the muscle. Blood was more depleted than the former tissues in 15N (delta 15N=7.4c0.6 0/00), as previously reported from other vertebrates and it was also more depleted in 13C (delta 13C=-18.8c0.2 0/00), an unexpected result. Finally, the carapace was also more depleted than the muscle and the skin (delta 15N=6.1c0.8 0/00 and delta 13C=-18.5c0.4 0/00) in both heavy isotopes, although it's isotopic signature was expected to be similar to that of the skin. It is concluded that results from different tissues cannot be combined to investigate diet but, rather, a single tissue should be selected and used as a model. This study was funded by EU-LIFE project 00NAT/E/7303.

Yolk lipids and their component fatty acids can be traced to dietary sources and are important for normal embryonic growth and survival. Previous studies have shown that in green sea turtles, embryonic death during incubation was a more serious threat to nest success than egg infertility. This study focused on the identification of yolk fatty acids and their implications on the success of green turtle eggs. On average, wild green turtles have better hatch success than captive animals. Eggs were sampled from turtles in captivity and the wild. Food and yolk samples were analyzed using gas-liquid chromatography. Different levels of several fatty acids were found in the yolks. Compared to levels of fatty acids in their respective food sources, green sea turtles packaged lipids in their yolks in proportions different than those found in their diets. Lipid composition of sea turtle diets and the possible consequence on their reproductive success merit further investigation. Egg lipid composition may become an indicator of sea turtle habitat quality.

Paternity studies are done in a few populations of sea turtles showing a wide variation on the multiple paternity frequency (ranging from 0 to 75%), which cannot be explained plainly by taxonomic issues. The meaning and value of this cross species variation must be explained in order to attain the correct explanation about this intriguing topic of biology which has relevance for the conservation of sea turtles. In this study I have shown fitness implications of the multiple paternity variations found over sea turtle species and have explained all the different scenarios observed, based on the available information. In order to get more robust explanations, I suggest using some of the information that has been used marginally or not at all on previous paternity studies on sea turtles.

Nesting activity was monitored from early May until early August on Blackbeard Island and on Wassaw Island. All nesting females observed were measured, double flipper tagged and given a PIT tag in the right flipper. Blood samples were collected from nesting females for hormone analysis each season and the reproductive status of a subset was determined by ultrasound. Nesting chronology based on tag information was correlated with hormone and ultrasound results. Testosterone and estradiol levels showed a gradual decline across the course of the nesting season. Progesterone levels fluctuated as observed in other species. Corticosterone levels increased towards the end of the nesting season. Females nesting in Georgia have been documented to lay up to 6 clutches of eggs during the nesting season. Yearly variations in nesting and movements between barrier islands have made accurate determination of fecundity difficult. Seasonal nesting patterns and fecundity measures will be discussed.

The goals of this research were to 1) investigate the elationship between Indian, Atlantic and Pacific Ocean rookeries, 2) document the genetic diversity in Oman's rookeries and 3) infer historical demographic patterns for both rookeries. Our results demonstrate extremely shallow mtDNA diversity in loggerheads nesting on Masirah Island, Oman.

Our study examined the sensitivity of nesting Eastern Pacific leatherback turtles (Dermochelys coriacea) to environmental stochasticity at their potential foraging areas in the Eastern Tropical Pacific. We accomplished this by using sea surface temperature (SST), as measured by satellite, as an indicator of feeding conditions for leatherbacks nesting at Playa Grande, Las Baulas National Park, Costa Rica. We used 11 years of PIT tagging data to derive nesting remigration intervals for each nesting season up to 2003. We used SST anomalies from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administrations Climate Prediction Center comprising of 4 El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO) regions along the Equatorial Pacific Ocean. We analyzed mean SST data at various time periods prior to each nesting season as indicators of feeding conditions affecting each season's remigrants. We designed a log likelihood probability model to determine the relationship between the SST anomalies and leatherback remigration probabilities. A likelihood ratio (LR) test determined the significance level of the effect of the SST anomalies on the probabilities of leatherbacks remigrating to Playa Grande.

Using Lotek LTD tags, we obtained 12,701 hours of diving data, which translated into 72,090 dives. We analyzed these data by dividing the internesting interval into three phases. The first three days after nesting was considered the beginning phase, while the last three days before the turtle nested again was the end phase. All days in between were considered the middle phase. We also examined diel and nocturnal differences in diving behavior. Dives were significantly deeper and longer during the day than at night in each phase. Surface intervals were significantly longer during the day than at night for the beginning and middle phases, but not the end phase. We recorded 250 post-dive surface events that were in excess of 30 minutes. Of these extended surface intervals, 132 were diurnal and 118 were nocturnal. Dives preceding nocturnal extended surface intervals were much shallower and shorter than dives preceding diurnal extended surface intervals. Seventy-seven percent of nocturnal extended surface intervals occurred during the end phase, whereas 66% of diurnal extended surface intervals occurred in the beginning phase.

Both in situ (n = 60) and relocated (n = 78) nests were studied on Blackbeard Island and Wassaw National Wildlife Refuges. Nest temperatures were monitored to estimate pivotal temperature and to predict hatchling sex ratios. These predicted sex ratios were compared to the histologically determined sex ratios of ten hatchlings sampled from each of ten nests in order to estimate pivotal temperature and transitional range of temperatures. The estimated pivotal temperature based on temperature regimes in natural nests was similar to previously published pivotal temperature for Atlantic loggerheads based on constant incubation temperatures. These data were then used to predict sex ratios produced in other nests to examine seasonal changes in sex ratios. Our results show a seasonal trend in sex ratios: nests laid during the first third of the nesting season (May 1 - June 4) produced the highest percentage of males; whereas, nests laid during the remainder of the season (June 5 - August 10) produced predominantly females. The results indicate that both male and female hatchlings were produced on these Georgia barrier islands, but overall a significant female bias was predicted.

Individual turtles have been hand-captured at depth using SCUBA, retained on a vessel for the collection of morphometric data, tagging, numbering, photographing and tissue sampling for DNA analysis. A reference library of local hawksbill photographs has been developed to document newly tagged individuals and the effectiveness of photographic identification is being assessed. Divers aboard local dive charters report sightings when tagged turtles are encountered. To date, 24 hawksbills have been captured in 20 dive days (average 1 dive day/week), representing 21.1 hours on SCUBA. Only one encountered turtle escaped capture, indicating the approachability of these turtles underwater. Turtles ranging from 41.8 - 82.3 cm (mean 59.5) straight carapace length have been captured at depths ranging from 13.4 - 22.5 m (mean 18.2). Due to logistical considerations, no turtles have been painted to date. Re-sightings have been confirmed for 7 tagged turtles, with a maximum of 5 sightings of one individual over a 116 day period. Preliminary data indicate strong site-fidelity and close association with both natural and artificial coral reef structures. Untagged turtles are still reported regularly within the survey area. Work in the near future will include blood sampling to allow for gender determination (presently under review for permitting) and mapping of capture/sighting location data.

Hatchlings were collected at emergence and held in a captive-rearing facility for other studies. Their mortality was tracked within clutches, across clutches, by beach and by subseason (early, middle and late) to identify mortality correlations. We found no significant relationship between mortality and sex, size or beach. There was a significant relationship between mortality and repeated or prolonged tidal inundation and higher than average rainfall. In 2002, rainfall during the early and middle subseason was 40% higher than the average monthly rainfall. This correlates with the higher than average mortality that we observed in the early and middle subseason hatchlings from 2002. During the late subseason of 2003, there were repeated tidal inundation events as a result of hurricane storm surges. Hatchlings from the affected nests experienced mortality that was four times greater than turtles collected from nests that were not inundated (40% vs. 9%).

These wide-ranging species share a common diet (jellyfish and gelatinous zooplankton) and have similar distributions. In this study, we examined distributions of leatherbacks and ocean sunfishes along the North American coast from Nova Scotia to Cape Hatteras and in the Gulf of Mexico to determine the extent of spatial and temporal overlap. The data were collected from existing aerial surveys (NOAA Fisheries Service). Leatherbacks and sunfishes were attracted to similar oceanographic regions and features. Spatial and temporal distributions of leatherbacks and sunfishes in the Northeast have nearly identical occurrence patterns, with peak occurrence in summer. On average, leatherbacks and sunfishes were seen within 40 km of each other. In the Gulf of Mexico, the patterns of spatial and temporal distribution indicate that they co-occur in this region but differ in co-occurrence distances and in seasonal densities. Sunfishes were more abundant in winter while leatherbacks were more uniformly distributed across the year. The majority of leatherbacks and sunfishes were sighted within 80 km of each other. Similarities in diet, assessed from gastrointestinal contents of 12 leatherbacks and 2 sunfishes found stranded along the U.S. Atlantic coast, showed similar prey. Nematocysts reveal dietary overlap (all cnidarian classes). Whole prey items found in the specimens include pieces of mesoglea, Libinia spp and Aplidium spp. Plastic debris was found in 7 leatherback GI tracts, but not in the sunfish. Since these species share similarities in diet, distribution and spatial overlap, there is potential for food resource competition.

In 1997 the Florida Legislature unanimously authorized the creation of the turtle tag. CCCs intent in pushing for the tag was to provide a permanent funding source for the states Marine Turtle Protection Program (MTPP), which is now part of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission and to establish a source of grant funds to support sea turtle projects in Florida.

Migratory behavior of male hawksbills in the Caribbean as seen through genetic markers AN - 20503319; 9187907 AB - Although we have gained considerable knowledge on the population biology and ecology of female and sub-adult hawksbills, we have only a cursory understanding of male migratory and reproductive behavior. We analyzed the extent of male fidelity to natal regions by comparing mtDNA sequences in 740bp fragments of the control region from breeding males (n=38), juveniles (n=52) and nesting females (n=48) which were obtained during the 2003-04 nesting season in Mona Island, Puerto Rico (PR). Differing haplotype composition between the males and nesting females (chisquared = 19.8006; p=0.0035) and greater proportion of non-PR haplotypes in the males (including possible Cuban, Mexican, Barbados and Antigua origins) strongly suggested a strong philopatry in males, almost comparable with that exhibited by females. A closer scrutiny through mixed stock analyses of the male sample estimated about 85% contribution by the PR rookery which, when compared with about 30% in PR juvenile foraging aggregation, suggests that males either gradually recruit to the vicinity of the mating sites and remain resident until sexually mature or preferentially migrate to the vicinity of natal grounds as mature animals for reproduction and then leave. Aware that current genetic information alone is not capable of identifying which behavior is accurate, we present this information combined with results from mark-recapture information and satellite telemetry showing that the complexity in the rookery source composition for breeding males in PR has important regional implications for hawksbill conservation-threats to both national and international populations and will be impacting the continued reproductive viability of the PR populations.

There may be a large net import of nutrients to the nesting beach and local ecosystem and this may take a variety of forms, such as eggshells, decomposition of unhatched eggs, hatchlings or eggs eaten by predators, etc. The contribution from decomposing eggs is likely to be greater on arribada beaches because the high density of turtle nesting often means that egg-laying by one female disturbs a nest previously laid by another. As a first step in analyzing the nutrient imports associated with arribada turtle nesting, we collected samples of beach sand from the main olive ridley arribada beach at Ostional, Costa Rica and analyzed them for ammonia, nitrate and phosphate content. For comparison, another set of samples was collected from a nearby beach at Nosara, selected because it does not receive any turtle nesting activity. Samples were collected at a depth of 40 cm and extracted with purified water, then analyzed with standard test kits on a Hach DR890 colorimeter. Sand pH and temperature were also measured. Analysis of the samples (n=20 for Ostional and n=16 for Nosara) indicates much higher nutrient content at Ostional: ammonia content averaged about 460 times greater, nitrate content about 16 times greater and phosphate content about 139 times greater. Sand temperature at nest depth was also higher at Ostional, averaging 35.4C versus 31.1C at Nosara.

The population is of such magnitude that it is one of the largest in the Atlantic Ocean and is of global significance. The population is known to be subject to directed and incidental take in the nesting grounds and the foraging grounds are as yet unknown. To help underpin conservation of the population, a project was designed to gain insights into the movements in the internesting habitat, define migratory corridors and highlight potential important foraging habitats. In conjunction with a beach survey project carried out by Project Natura 2000 since 1998, 10 satellite transmitters were deployed on adult turtles in 2004. This included eight post nesting females which were released from the beaches of Boavista and one adult male turtle captured at sea. Turtles demonstrated a high degree of site fidelity during the nesting season before undertaking an exciting range of pelagic movements towards Africa, demonstrating marked diversity in movement patterns influenced by dynamic oceanographic features. We outline how movement patterns are being integrated with geospatial analyses and remote sensing technologies to allow a deeper understanding of the ecology of the species. In addition, one turtle ceased to send messages 4 weeks after deployment and local information and satellite data suggest an illegal terminal interaction with a fishing vessel. The implications for international conservation measures to protect these turtles from Cape Verde are discussed.

Consequently, it is difficult to determine whether low tag-recapture rates during a 2000-2003 in-water trawl survey represent high emigration rates out of the area or a dilution of tagged turtles in a sea of unmarked turtles. To help address these issues, six juvenile (57.4 to 65.8 cm SCL min) loggerheads were outfitted with Telonics ST-20, Model A2010 satellite transmitters during summer 2004. Two loggerheads were tagged and released in June and four loggerheads were tagged and released in August.

As of the time of this abstract submission, all six loggerheads have remained within the general vicinity of Charleston, SC. Behavioral data from telemetry sensors will also be discussed.

Unfortunately, in spite of this positive development, many captains still resist using TEDS, a reluctance which triggered an embargo of shrimp exports to the United States from August 2003 to January 2004. To improve TED acceptance, PRETOMA is carrying out a one year program to increase TED acceptance. Georgia shrimp fisherman and inventor of the TED, Sinkey Boone, was hired as a project consultant to foster direct fisherman to fisherman communication. Sinkey carried out several meetings with fishermen and government representatives, observations at sea to study TED performance and held a one day workshop with over 30 fishermen and netmakers, where he provided fishermen with tips to improve TED performance. Of special concern to the Costa Rican fishermen is the recent mandate to use larger escape holes, especially in light of the fact that leatherbacks have never been recorded as shrimp trawl bycatch and loggerheads do not even occur in these waters. During the second phase of the project, technical evaluations are being held regarding the performance of different TED models and modifications, the results of which are presented in this paper.

Currently, there are few effective techniques available for monitoring the grazing behavior accurately over the long period. In this study, the grazing behavior of hawksbill turtles (Eretmochelys imbricata) was monitored with acceleration data loggers which recorded depth, temperature and accelerations in two axes. Experiments were conducted in a breeding tank at Yaeyama station, National Center for Stock Enhancement, Japan. Four hawksbill turtles were attached with two acceleration data loggers on both head and carapace with double sided adhesive tape. The turtles were released in the tank and left to recover from the handling. Their foraging behavior was recorded within a few hours. During the experiment, we recorded the behavior of turtles with an underwater digital video camera. There were four patterns of behavior that were distinguishable through the acceleration profiles and the underwater observation: resting, swimming, grazing and breathing. We extracted some patterns of head movement related to the grazing behavior using the differential analysis between head and carapace acceleration data. The new technique can clarify when and where turtles graze quantitatively as well as time allocation of their behavior patterns.

The tags collect data over a period of time and then pop up on a designated date and transmit the data to the ARGOS satellites. In May 2003, PAT tags were attached to 3 loggerhead turtles of the 2000 year class held in captivity at the NOAA Fisheries Galveston Laboratory. At the time the tags were attached, the animals were approximately 50 cm SCL. The PAT tags were attached to a fitting on the posterior carapace via a 10 cm tether of coated monofilament. The carpacial hardware was attached by drilling two holes through the post-central scutes and securing a stainless eyestrap on the dorsal surface, through-bolting with stainless bolts and lock nuts. Nylon washers were used between stainless hardware and the carapace. During the following year we monitored the turtles weekly for subsequent changes, photographing both the dorsal and ventral surfaces of the attachment. The tags were removed in May 2004. The posterior carapace of each animal was scanned radiographically using CT and the radiographs were evaluated for the long-term impact of the attachment on the underlying bone.

No previous papers exist on the best manner to keep them in captivity, which is why it is necessary to understand the first steps in sea turtle aquaculture. How many can possibly be held in a specific water volume, what do they eat, how often must they eat, what kind of food do they need, etc. We kept neonatal olive ridleys until they reached an initial weight of 17.4 g. They were kept at four different stock densities (6, 8, 10 and 12 hatchlings per tank) with three tanks per treatment and were weighed weekly during the study. Chemical parameters were monitored (pH, oxygen and temperature daily; nitrates of the water every two weeks). The following water data were obtained: pH 8.26 c 0.336 (n=937), Temperature 26.90 c 1.33C, dissolved oxygen averaged 3.10 c 2.87 mg/1 (range 0.5-9.95), nitrates 0.26 c 0.075 and saltpeters 0.12 c0.018 mg/1. Results show that there was a greater growth based on the bio-mass corporal singular of 71.58 g in the tank with 6 hatchlings and the lowest individual growth was observed in the tanks with 10 with 59.39 g. The lowest growth of hatchlings was presented in the treatment with 12 turtles.

The work area encompassed the northern coast of the Rio Escalante - Chacocente Wildlife Refuge. This area is one of the most important nesting sites for this species in Nicaragua. Due to the high frequency of poaching, nests from three different sea turtle species were relocated to a hatchery. Leatherback, black turtle (Chelonia mydas agassizii) and olive ridley (Lepidochelys olivaced) nests were relocated using a density of 2 nests/m super(2). During 2002/03 and 2003/04 seasons a total of 160 sea turtle nests were protected (leatherback: 98, black turtle: 19 and olive ridley: 43). The average emergence rates (live hatchling out the nest/yolked eggs) were 22.2 % for leatherback, 75% for black turtle and 64.7 % for olive ridley. A monthly decline in the emergence rate of nests was observed. Additionally, nests under shade showed higher emergence success that the nests relocated under the sun. This presentation presents the results obtained in the hatchery during both seasons and analyzes some factors that could have influenced the emergence success rates observed.

The influx of coastal developments is one of the greatest problems facing Kenya's coastal beaches and is an important conservation issue. Threats to nesting beaches emanate from the construction of sea walls and other armoring structures, increased human presence and presence of recreational or beach equipment and beach erosion. A rapid ground survey was undertaken along the Southcoast, Mombasa, Kilifi, Watamu, Malindi, Robinson Island and Lamu areas to profile sea turtle nesting beaches with the aim of assessing the current status the beaches and developing a baseline GIS database. A spatial index of the following physical parameters were taken: GPS location, beach slope, sand grain size, presence and type of armoring structures, their length and distance from the high water mark, human presence and fishing activity, predominant threats, presence of predators and vegetation. Semi-structured interviews with local fishermen and residents revealed evidence of nesting habitat loss particularly in areas with high beachfront development and human activity in the Southcoast, Mombasa and Kilifi. The database will be an important reference tool for research and monitoring of Kenya's turtle nesting beaches.

In many areas, nesting beach protection will depend on long-term agreements with local communities. While creating endowed funds to support such agreements and associated beach protection is a sensible strategy to ensure sustainability, in practice few community agreements with long-term funding exist. One important reason for this is a lack of information on the cost and structure of such arrangements. Conservation International (CI), NOAA Fisheries and other partners are leading a two-pronged approach to address this issue by: 1) examining the cost and structure of existing and potential community agreements at three sites (the Arnavons Marine Conservation Area (AMCA) in the Solomon Islands, the Kamiali Wildlife Management Area in PNG and the Jamursba Medi beach in Papua, Indonesia); and 2) joining with the NOAA Fisheries Pacific Islands Regional Office, the Norbert Hardner Foundation and TNC to establish an endowment for the long-term protection of the AMCA.

In Central America, domestic trade continues to occur at a significant level, causing the loss of many individuals from already reduced populations. Local authorities, from environmental ministers to customs agents, have little or no training in distinguishing between genuine sea turtle products and imitations. The tool presented in this poster helps to clarify the procedure to be used during inspections and the characteristics of hawksbill products that should be noted. The field revision protocol and the laboratory tests that are described will help authorities proceed appropriately in the case of illegal trade. The guide for identifying hawksbill articles could potentially help various government agencies in improving the control of illegal trade of a variety of hawksbill derived products, being applicable for use by street vendor investigators as well as customs agents. The morphological description, the coloration, the form in which keratin is deposited in the shell scutes, the release of sulfur during combustion and infrared ray analysis are elements of this guide. Similar analyses for cosmetic products, such as oil derivatives and for making clearer descriptions in cases of sea turtle meat trade, are necessary. They are also very useful for immediate testing at the moment of confiscation.

Green, hawksbill, leatherback, loggerhead and olive ridley turtles cross the ocean looking for food. Some of these species interact with different fishing activities. During the seasons for the common dolphinfish and shark longline fisheries in 2003 and 2004 and during the season for the anchovy and mackerel purse seine fisheries, on board observers collected data about incidental sea turtle capture. The onboard observers were specially qualified to conduct the data collection. Information about the fishing gear and fishing activity was also collected. The species most commonly captured during the longline activities was the loggerhead turtle, but green and olive ridley turtles were also captured. The loggerhead turtle was more injured during the longline activities than other turtles due to the fact that it commonly bit the hook and the tools for hook removal were not available. The information about capture rates and areas of capture, with other results, will be presented in the poster.

Canadian commercial fisheries operating in Atlantic Canadian waters are known to incidentally capture leatherback turtles, although the threats are not well understood. This project was undertaken in order to synthesize existing data on commercial fishing activities to aid in the assessment of this potential threat. Commercial fisheries data were extracted from existing databases of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans Canada for fixed gear fisheries that have been identified as having high risks for potential interaction with leatherback turtles. A database containing the positional and effort data for these fisheries was created in MS Access. ESRI ArcGIS 8.3 software was then used to create maps of fishing gear distribution during May to November, when leatherback turtles are present in migratory and feeding habitat in Atlantic Canadian waters. Maps of leatherback turtle occurrence were also available. These spatial and temporal distribution maps will enhance the ability of managers to assess and evaluate the threat of incidental interactions between leatherback turtles and commercial fishing gear and to work toward the development of appropriate mitigation measures.

In the late 1990's, however, a substantial increase in jaguar predation was noted, from four in 1997 to at least 22 in 1999. This presentation describes jaguar feeding behavior, presents data on jaguar predation of green turtles from 2000 - 2004 and reviews the impacts of jaguar predation on the Tortuguero green turtle population. A remote video camera-trap was used to record jaguars feeding on recently predated turtles. One hour of close-up footage was subsequently analyzed to elucidate aspects of jaguar feeding behavior. Data on the number of turtles killed by jaguars were collected opportunistically during track surveys of the 30 km of nesting beach. A minimum of 28-97 green turtles were killed annually, suggesting a continuing increase in jaguar predation from previous years. Incidental jaguar sightings on the beach were also recorded and the frequency of jaguar observations increased over the study period. Although the data indicate an increase in jaguar predation on green turtles in the last 5 years, if it remains at current levels it is unlikely to have a great impact on the green turtle population. However, this study highlights the need for a more comprehensive investigation of this intriguing interaction between two endangered species at Tortuguero.

AN - 20499845; 9188025 AB - Olive ridley turtles nesting on Guatemala's Pacific shores appear to show preference for places and times of nesting. There is clear evidence from observations of this species nesting in Costa Rica that they can wait for many days in a gravid state seaward of the breakers for the optimum hour to come ashore. In Guatemala this beaching is precise, with females coming ashore around high tide and moving directly up-beach to the nest site; false crawls are rare. Little attention has been paid to the mechanism the turtles might use to determine their preferred time and place of nesting. Our intuition is that they may be using acoustic cues. From the little information available, there is a clear match between the tonal emissions of the surf zone and the range of turtle hearing. It is feasible that turtle embryos could become imprinted with acoustic signals during their fifty days of incubation in the nest. Along-beach variation in gradient and sand-size will cause variation in surf sound quality that could be sensed by turtles. Similar across-beach variations could permit sensitivity to the state of the tide. This year we began a simple project involving both a review of the literature and the making of initial sound recordings in upper beach locations as a first step in investigating this phenomenon. Our results are consistent with the hypothesis that sea turtles could be using acoustic cues to control their nesting behaviour.

While much information is available on the biology of nesting females, comparatively less is known about the biology of black turtles at sea, particularly for males. In this study we examined the morphometrics of 122 sexually differentiated (i.e. apparent) male black turtles in both breeding and foraging areas. Data were gathered during the 1977/1978 nesting season in Michoacan, Mexico (MICH), from 1995-2004 at the Bahia de los Angeles foraging area along the Baja California peninsula, Mexico (BLA) and from 1990-2004 at the San Diego Bay foraging area in Southern California, USA (SDB). Most turtles were captured with entanglement nets or by hand capture, although some data came from stranded turtles, captive turtles and those confiscated from the black market. At MICH, BLA and SDB, straight carapace length (SCL; 0.1 cm) was recorded from the nuchal notch to the posterior-most portion of the rear marginals using a foresters caliper. At BLA and SDB tail length (TL; 1.0 cm) of turtles was measured from the tip of the tail to the trailing edge of the plastron using a flexible tape measure. A tail/length index (t) was calculated to establish the relationship between SCL and TL (t = TL/SCL).

Considering the lack of commercial systems for vitellogenin analysis and the lack of specific standards for sea turtles, we focused the work on the definition of a reliable method for vitellogenin's purification and quantification in Caretta caretta. Heparinized blood samples (2cc) and morphological data were collected from Caretta caretta hospitalized at the WWF Sea Turtle Rescue Center in Lampedusa, Sicily (Italy). The plasma was stored frozen at -20C until analysis. For VTG purification, 100 kL of each sample was used. The VTG purification was obtained by precipitation while its quantification was performed with the spectro-photometric method, using standard staining and protocol ("DC protein assay", BIORAD). Although it was not possible to estimate the gender of all the animals as they were smaller than the 75 cm carapace length threshold for gender determination, the VTG levels, detected in sexed animals, are in agreement with the gender. The marker was detected in all animals. Due to the lack of data on VTG in Caretta caretta and the uniformity of VTG trend for all turtle species, we arbitrarily choose the 1 mg/ml VTG level as a starting threshold concentration, as from the data of Tada et al. (2004) who worked on Chinemys reevesii. Even if in male turtles the levels were very low, one male presented high concentration of VTG. Overall, there seems to be no risk for reproductive health of sea turtles from Sicily. Nevertheless, the vitellogenic male poses some concern about possible endocrine disruption effect induced by pollutants which are present in the Mediterranean Sea.

Application of standard fracture repair techniques in sea turtles is complicated by numerous factors: limited cortical bone to anchor implants, implant loosening due to significant plastron and carapace movement during breathing and the fact that attachment of any implant to the shell will alter normal growth and development. A 130 kg adult male loggerhead was presented to the Marinelife Center with a fracture to the caudal carapace involving the vertebral bones and thus, potentially the spinal cord. This fracture was unstable enough to warrant aggressive treatment due to its size, depth and location. A technique using human orthopedic external fixators was elected to accomplish the reduction and stabilization necessary to promote healing. Threaded cortical bone pins were placed through the peripheral bones on either side of the fracture and at a stabilization point on the opposite side of the carapace. Engaging both cortices of the bone created greater implant stability. A fixator allowing for several centimeters of reduction on the fracture as well as lateral and horizontal stabilization was then installed onto the pins. Two months after stabilization, granulated tissue was forming along the debrided carapace edges and beneath the bone within soft issue. The bones of the carapace did not knit as hoped but the wound was healing by second intention. After 4 months, healing of the fracture had progressed to the point where the turtle was releasable.

It has 571 kilometers of coastline with sandy beaches interspersed with estuaries, thorny bushes and an average main temperature of 80F. The Save My Future (SAMFU) foundation, a local environmental organization, started scientific research on sea turtle in 1999 with the aid of many key scientists. During these years of work, SAMFU identified the nesting species in Liberia, the potential threat facing these species, and four priority zones identified to establish sanctuaries for the protection and rapid replacement of depleted stock. They also hosted a national conference to develop a draft sea turtle management plan for enactment. Presently with these innovative outputs, a viable and willing team needs the basic financial support to work. Preferably, INGOs could spend a few thousand dollars for local initiatives. Some policies if not modified, will result in a waste of time and resources. "If migratory species will be protected in one global community while others enjoy killing these same species by the hundreds". We must then ask ourselves about simplified strategies for implementation at the grass root levels, or else scientific papers may continue to be presented at symposium and hundreds of nesting turtle's continued to be killed.

In addition, several studies of the reproductive physiology of sea turtles have been generated from this lab and in collaboration with several other labs. We recently discovered an error, which does not affect relative levels of hormone but does impact absolute levels. The concentrations of the testosterone standards were found to be incorrect. We determined that the stock solution from which the dilutions were made for the assay's standard curve was labeled incorrectly by a previous investigator. New testosterone (Sigma-Aldrich, Inc., St. Louis, Missouri) was purchased and a new testosterone stock solution (50ug/100ml) was prepared. New standards were serially diluted from this stock solution (1250, 625, 312.5, 156, 78, 39 and 19.5 pg/ml). Experiments compared the old standards to the new. The old standards were determined to be approximately ten times higher than they were previously reported. Therefore, all testosterone values reported between 1980 and 2000 need to be multiplied by a correction factor of ten in order to correct for this mistake. The testosterone levels used by the Owens lab for sex determination were validated through laparoscopy, so the range for each sex is corrected by multiplying by ten. It is important to emphasize that all sex ratio predictions previously reported remain unchanged since the sex determination component of the assay depends on relative amounts of hormone in males versus females and not on the absolute levels.

We present a model for integrating various business units into an effective partnership for sea turtle conservation. Through our efforts of rehabilitation, collaboration with ACCSTR and UCF to develop telemetry devices to track juvenile green sea turtles, public education initiatives and funding efforts through the Disney Wildlife Conservation Fund, WDW continues to expand efforts to protect sea turtles. Our focus at Disney's Vero Beach Resort (DVBR) has been to increase public awareness of sea turtle conservation. Our staff monitors nesting activity along a 3km stretch of beach in Indian River County. Education initiatives have had a significant impact on changing visitors' attitude and increasing interest in sea turtles. We have instituted a program to watch nesting sea turtles from an observation deck using night vision goggles, resulting in a significant decrease in false crawls within the study area. Given our commitment to keeping the beaches clean for wildlife, DVBR is "plastic lid and straw free." We also participate in NESTS, Neighbors Ensuring Sea Turtle Survival, which was developed to work with coastal homeowners associations and individuals living on Florida's barrier islands. The idea is to engage individuals living in coastal areas in simple activities that will have a direct benefit to the survival of sea turtles and protecting their nesting habitat. This integrated approach to conservation, that aligns various lines of business within WDW, can serve as a model for other corporations in developing their conservation efforts.

The Pride program uses proven social marketing techniques and the leadership of local conservationists to dramatically increase public support for sea turtles in intensive year-long education campaigns. The campaign coordinators use turtle costumes, music videos, puppet shows and community festivals to spread the conservation message. A campaign run by the Palau Conservation Society built momentum for a moratorium on turtle taking in a culture that values sea turtle shells as currency and a food staple--draft legislation is now being reviewed by congress. The Rare Radio program uses serial dramas to change attitudes and behavior on public health and environmental issues in island communities throughout Micronesia and the Eastern Caribbean. These programs, which address issues such as turtle egg poaching and coastal development, are developed and managed by local actors, writers and producers, with Rare's support. By building community-based ecotourism businesses, Rare Enterprises helps bring jobs and economic benefits to residents of ecologically fragile areas- offering alternatives to activities like blast fishing and turtle poaching. Intensive nature guide trainings focus on natural history, interpretation and conversational English, while the Ecotourism Promoters Training builds small business skills. Graduates of these programs are helping rural communities earn a sustainable income by protecting their nesting turtles. By focusing on developing the skills of people who live and work near important sea turtle habitat, all of Rare's main programs are building the constituencies needed for long-term sea turtle conservation.

This renders enforcing conservation measures almost impossible. Since 1998, we have collaborated with commercial fishers to learn more about the biology of this species in temperate waters. To effectively conserve the leatherback turtle in this part of the world, however, it has been necessary to enlist the fishers not just as research partners, but also as champions of the turtle. Our attempts to instill a stewardship ethic and an affinity for the leatherback turtle amongst local fishers include an extensive public information and outreach campaign shaped by the culture of the fishing community and informed by fishers' traditional ecological knowledge. Our efforts to liaise with and integrate coastal community members in leatherback turtle research and conservation initiatives have resulted in 500 volunteers (the Nova Scotia Leatherback Turtle Working Group) who document the occurrence of turtles off Canada's east coast annually, promote safe and appropriate disentanglement techniques and assist with field research. Their sustained interest in our work and the signs of their growing sense of the intrinsic worth of the leatherback have been essential to our conservation efforts and can serve as a model for conserving sea turtles elsewhere.

The required training includes how to handle and locate nests on the beach, differentiation of rakes, according to the species nesting. It is of vital importance that the students and technical personnel in the turtle camps have an extensive background on many topics: problems and current situation of the marine turtles in Mexico, identification of species, basic biology and natural history, strategies of conservation and handling, training in the programs of marked adults and hatchlings, knowledge of the best incubation techniques and subsequent release of neonates, as well as how to analyze the data. It is also important that they know sea turtle regulations, environmental legislation, programs of environmental education and sensitization, importance of the social participation, among others. In this way, the students learn the best way to write projects and to present the information at the regional level. It is for that reason that theoretical-practical courses such as these courses are taught, In this poster we present the subjects of the training and our results teaching in different states of the Mexican Republic.

Identifying the necessary components of projects and their associated costs can indicate how to achieve a given conservation objective at the lowest cost or how to get the biggest conservation bang for the buck, given limited funds. Furthermore, it can help to design effective and sustainable conservation programs, by providing insight into the incentives faced by people affected by the project. We collected data on costs of beach protection activities in three sites: Rantau Abang (Terengganu, Malaysia), Jamursba Medi (Indonesia) and Kamiali (PNG). We estimated current yearly costs of these projects (administration and field costs) as well as additional activities that would improve project sustainability. Cost information was graciously provided by project staff in the three sites.

The presence of Lepidochelys olivacea, Lepidochelys kempii and Eretmochelys imbricata is anecdotal. For the loggerhead turtle, there is a developmental area and one possible nesting area (De los Rios et al, in prep.) in the Atlantic and one feeding area in the Mediterranean, in the transition with the Atlantic, where they feed almost exclusively on the portunid crab Polybius henslowii (De los Rios y Ocana, in press.). The leatherback has been seen in the same bay at the beginning of the African Mediterranean, another feeding ground. Turtles migrate through the Strait of Gibraltar to feed on the jellyfish appearing there in blooms. Strandings of both live and dead turtles are also recorded in the rest of the Mediterranean and in the Atlantic littoral region (De los Rios et al, in prep.). In the South Atlantic region, there is a development area for green turtles confirmed by strandings and observed sizes. There is also evidence of nesting spots (De los Rios et al, in prep.). Sea sightings, beaches surveys, medical rehabilitation, necropsies, anatomo-osteological studies, satellite tracking, etc... have been performed. The origin, distribution, abundance, dynamics, ecology and threats of each of these species are discussed thanks to a 15 year survey, representing the deepest study of this kind in this northwest African littoral.

In 1959, he formed the Caribbean Conservation Corporation that continues his work today. This presentation focuses on key findings from the long-term program that could not have been learned from shorter studies. Tagging of nesting females at Tortuguero has revealed reproductive longevity of up to 24 years for green turtles. At least 14 female green turtles have been observed to be reproductively active for .20 years. Repeated carapace measurements show that female green turtles display very limited growth (, 0.3 cm/year) once they are reproductively active. Long-term monitoring of remigration intervals has demonstrated modulated reproductive periodicity in green turtles, possibly influenced by environmental conditions. This would help to explain the large interannual variation in nest numbers observed at Tortuguero and other nesting beaches. Several important conclusions regarding the outcome of sea turtle conservation have been learned from the Tortuguero program. For late-maturing species such as green turtles, conservation efforts have to be sustained for decades to produce tangible results. This emphasizes the need for long-term commitments to fund and implement conservation actions in order to recover reduced nesting populations. The Tortuguero program shows that the policy changes and economic incentives needed for successful sea turtle conservation can take decades to attain. At Tortuguero, long-term protection of the nesting beach and adjacent waters in order to reduce egg collection and turtle hunting have contributed to a remarkable 412% increase in green turtle nest numbers between 1971 and 2004.

Previously presented work demonstrated mercury accumulates in loggerheads in the southeastern U.S. but the toxicity of the reported levels is unclear. Those preliminary data showed negative correlations between blood mercury and lymphocyte proliferation (p = 0.01, n = 11), total white blood cell counts (p = 0.02, n = 6) and plasma sodium concentration (p = 0.0003, n = 6), prompting further research in this area. The current work will expand these datasets to a larger sample size (n 6 80) using additional blood samples collected from loggerheads captured in the nearshore waters of South Carolina, Georgia and Florida. These data will be used to more thoroughly assess the relationships between mercury and immune function (lymphocyte proliferation, lysozyme production and white blood cell counts) and blood chemistry parameters. Laboratory exposure of peripheral blood leukocytes to methylmercury resulted in suppression of proliferative responses. Additionally, mercury concentrations in scute scrapings collected from debilitated loggerhead standings will be compared to samples collected from stranded loggerheads suffering from acute boat strike injuries and apparently healthy live captures to determine if higher mercury burdens are associated with the chronically ill debilitated condition. Preliminary results from a one-way analysis of variance revealed no significant difference between scute mercury levels in apparently healthy turtles and debilitated turtles, but higher mercury levels in standings with boat strike injuries (p = 0.0002).

We have collected a base of scientific data on the marine turtles that we have encountered on our beach patrols and in our hatchery. The most common nester is Lepidochelys olivacea with more than a thousand nests per season, followed by Chelonia mydas agassizii with approximately 20 nests per season and the seldom seen Dermochelys coriacea seen in 2003/2004 with fourteen nests from two individuals. We have collected data on nesting frequency around the Osa Peninsula; the beaches here are some of the most productive sea turtle nesting habitats on the Pacific coast of Costa Rica. We have begun to establish ranges and averages of lengths and widths for nesting turtles and hatchlings. We have ascertained the best time to encounter nesting turtles and studied the correlation of lunar and tidal cycles on nesting frequencies. Our tagging program for long-term population studies had the first recaptures in 2004 from turtles tagged in 2002. We have recorded time of incubation, temperatures and hatching success rates; and we have released more than 32,000 hatchlings. After three years, we have been able to eliminate all of the feral dogs on the beach therefore lowering non-native depredation rates. This data collection and analysis is to enrich the base of information about these turtles and the nesting habitats along the Osa Peninsula.

While this could be due to changes in the remigration interval or the clutch frequency, the down trend could also indicate a decrease in the size of the nesting population. Green sea turtles have shown a pattern of relatively high and low nesting in alternating years, suggesting a predominant two-year remigration interval which has persisted for 16 years. Most loggerhead nests were relocated due to the heavily urbanized coast and brightly illuminated beaches. The eggs from 930 relocated loggerhead nests produced 59.4 percent released hatchlings while eggs from 207 in situ nests had a success rate of 63.7 percent.

This is one of the two beaches where arribadas (massive nesting events) occur in Nicaragua. Each night 1.5 kilometers of beach, where nesting activities are concentrated, are patrolled by MARENA's rangers and local communities' volunteers. Both solitary and arribada nests are counted by 100 meter sectors along the beach. Nests lost by natural causes and illegal poaching are recorded. Eggs are given as compensation to local people for beach protection work. On average, 10% of the nests occurring during an arribada are extracted and distributed between the communities near the beach. This presentation aims to show monitoring and management results reported for 2001/02,2002/03 and 2003/04 seasons.

Coincident with the nesting season is the Atlantic hurricane season, which officially begins on May 1 and ends on November 1. When tropical weather systems make landfall or even pass well offshore, storm surges, repeated flooding of nests and the effects of beach erosion and/or accretion can have devastating effects on nest hatching success. The effects of hurricanes Charley, Frances, Ivan and Jeanne on sea turtle nesting success in southwest Florida are assessed here. These storms passed offshore and/or made landfall between August 13 and September 25, 2004. Data from beaches in Collier, Lee, Charlotte, Sarasota, Manatee and Pinellas Counties were used in this report. Fewer nests were laid in 2004 than in 2003. The lower number of nests in 2004 coupled with hurricane impacts dramatically reduced hatchling recruitment. The data revealed that the extent of the impacts varied along the coast from storm-to-storm. Charley was more destructive in Collier and Lee Counties and less so in the others. Though Frances and Ivan washed away 25 nests in Collier County, they destroyed significantly more nests in Charlotte, Sarasota and Manatee Counties. Pinellas County was least impacted by the storms. During the 2003 season, the mean percentage of nests washed out over the entire west coast was 6.9% as opposed to a mean of 26.8% in 2004. In 2003 133,188 hatchlings entered the Gulf of Mexico as opposed to 72,299 in 2004. Even considering the fewer number of nests that were evaluated in 2004 (1,881) compared to 2003 (2,176), the impact of the storms on hatchling recruitment was dramatic.

Here the indigenous peoples have traditionally consumed adult turtles and eggs. Recent efforts by the coastal communities in these countries, supported by both local and international NGOs, are contributing to both conservation efforts and the collection of data on nesting populations. In Vanuatu the use of environmental drama followed by community discussion and the nomination of community turtle monitors has had dramatic effects in increasing conservation for all species of turtles. In the case of leatherbacks this has resulted in the identification of nesting beaches not previously reported, a survey of the most important nesting beach, tagging of nesting turtles and increased conservation of nests. In the Solomon Islands on the isolated coast of Western Province, the coastal communities have traditionally killed and consumed all the nesting leatherbacks and collected most of the eggs. These communities are now actively conserving the turtles, involved in beach monitoring, relocating of nests and recording hatching success. In PNG on the Huon Coast, community efforts in close cooperation with US NMFS researchers are successfully carrying out conservation and research efforts including beach surveys and tagging using metal and pit tags. Recently efforts have expanded to encompassing all communities along a 120 km section of coast, the most important nesting area in PNG.

The potential for multiple mating could be influenced by a variety of factors such as behaviour, reproductive cycle, the time a female is receptive, male ability to inseminate non-receptive females, population size and the sex ratio in the mating area (Fitzsimmons 1996). This study uses nuclear microsatellite markers to compare the incidence of MP in two olive ridley rookeries on the Pacific coast of Costa Rica with contrasting nesting behaviours - the "arribada" population nesting at Ostional and the solitary nesters of Playa Hermosa. DNA from 13 mothers and their offspring (20-29 per nest except for two nests with low hatching success) was collected at each of the two rookeries. We also sampled females from Ostional (N= 100) and from P. Hermosa (N=27) and 58 males from the Ostional breeding ground to assess allele frequency distributions for the used loci. Paternity of clutches was assessed using three micro-satellite loci: Cm84, Ei8 (Fitzsimmons et al. 1995) and Orl (Aggarwal et al. 2004). Our results document the highest level of multiple paternity (MP) in any marine turtle nesting population found to date. The high level of MP combined with the high number of fathers per clutch suggests that females nesting at Ostional are under intense mating pressure.

This negative effect is particularly strong in the waters surrounding the islands of Lampedusa and Lampione (SCI code ITA040002) and the island of Linosa (SCI code ITA040001) in southern Italy. We tested captive immature loggerheads to assess the importance of olfactory stimuli in prey selection. To test mackerel-smell effect, turtles were offered either odorous (mackerel inside a sheath, invisible from the outside) or odorless "bait" (identical sheath but without mackerel). Each experimental set was composed of three sheaths set at a 10 cm distance from one another. For each turtle we considered eight behavioral categories, from no interest to identification of the sheath as prey.

However, in the summer of 2003 during the nesting and hatching season, a prolonged coldwater upwelling offshore of the south and central Atlantic coast of Florida resulted in the cold-stunning of 12,847 loggerhead turtle hatchlings, 11 green turtle hatchlings and 7 leatherback turtle hatchlings along approximately 338 km of beach. Water temperatures were measured as low as 9 Celsius. Brevard County, which includes a portion of the Archie Carr National Wildlife Refuge, accounted for 11,000 (85.5%) of the cold-stunned hatchlings. In all, the upwelling affected seven counties and lasted approximately three months. Although mild, sporadic upwelling has been documented during the summer, no records could be found documenting water this cold for so prolonged a time during summer in Florida. A protocol was established between Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC), local volunteer organizations, rehabilitation centers, federal agencies and academic research groups dealing with this unusual situation. The cooperative efforts of thirteen sea turtle conservation groups, private companies and concerned citizens all contributed to helping over 12,000 sea turtle hatchlings get back out to the ocean.

Aerial survey estimates indicate that maximum turtle densities occur during the spring as turtles migrate into the Bay. Turtles are visible to aerial observers only when swimming at the water's surface. Historically, a correction factor has been applied to density estimates accounting for turtles below the observable surface. This is based on percent time turtles spend at the surface (turtle 'sightability') during the summer and fall in the mid-Bay (5.3% or, for every one turtle at the surface, there are approximately 18 turtles not seen below the surface; Byles 1988). Springtime surfacing data in the lower Bay were not included in calculating this historic correction factor. Springtime surfacing behaviors of juvenile Kemp's ridleys and loggerheads were determined in the lower Bay during 2002-2004 using radio/sonic telemetry. Observed springtime and early summer mean daytime loggerhead surfacing times were 9.9% (+/- 2.9% SD; 1:10) in 2002 (n=5 loggerheads) and 25.0% (+/-16.3% SD; 1:4) in 2003 (n=2). In 2004, only one loggerhead was tracked, resulting in a daytime surfacing time of 12.3% (1:7 to 1:8). Mean loggerhead surfacing times ranged as high as 36.5%. Observed springtime and early summer mean daytime Kemp's ridley surfacing times were 32.9% (+/-23.1% SD; 1:3) in 2003 (n=2) and 30.0% (+/- 25.8% SD; 1:3) in 2004 (n=3), with mean surfacing times ranging as high as 59.8%. There were significant differences among all individuals tracked (ANOVA, p< 0.05). The highest overall mean surfacing times among all individuals were observed among the Kemp's ridleys (30.0% to 59.8%). All observed spring surfacing times were higher than those recorded by Byles (5.3%; 1988) in the summer and fall. Therefore, turtles observed in the spring more likely to be counted during aerial surveys. Large differences (1:18 vs. 1:10, 1:4, or 1:3) in seasonal sea turtle 'sightability' bias historic abundance estimates.

Myers, Florida to Atlantic City, New Jersey. This survey was designed to estimate occurrence and abundance of bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) on the western North Atlantic continental shelf. On several occasions, the junior author observed bottlenose dolphins and Atlantic spotted dolphins (Stenella frontalis) harassing loggerhead sea turtles (Caretta caretta). The dolphins chased the turtles, tossed them out of the water and pushed the turtles underwater with their rostrums (beaks). We conducted a preliminary review of the interactions of marine mammals with sea turtles in the wild and in captivity.

Here we address the question of whether the green sea turtle will show socially mediated learned behaviors. Although socially mediated learning has been extensively studied in mammals and birds, virtually nothing is known about this behavior in reptiles. Eight month old green sea turtles (N = 35) were used. They were not given any food on the experimental day until after the experiment was completed to ensure that they were hungry and highly motivated to locate food. A food source was located in one part of the tank and a mesh barrier sequestered an observing turtle in the other part of the tank where it (a) watched a trained turtle feed from the source, (b) watched a naive turtle discover food from the source, or (c) spent time alone (control). When the barrier was removed, allowing the subject turtle (by itself) to feed from the food source, it did so faster in the "watch-naive turtle" condition (b) than either of the other two conditions, a phenomenon known as "local enhancement." The failure of the subjects observing the trained subjects to differ from the control subjects may have been due to the fact that the trained "models" found and consumed the food too efficiently to be effective role models for foraging.

The results from TSD studies often estimate a specific pivotal temperature. However, some studies suggest mat the pivotal temperature estimate should be considered a mean rather than a specific value. For example, several studies in sea turtle as well as freshwater turtles have suggested inter- and intraspecific variation in pivotal temperature. These studies have prompted suggestions that the pivotal temperature of an individual turtle could be affected by underlying genetic factors or egg-specific factors like maternal hormone levels in the yolk. The current study addresses pivotal temperature variation within clutches. Due to the endangered and threatened status of sea turtles, a freshwater turtle model (Trachemys scripta) was utilized. This species has a similar pattern and transitional range of temperatures to those of sea turtles. For each of three nesting seasons (2000, 2001, 2003), sex ratios were examined in forty to fifty-five clutches throughout the nesting season. The results indicate that pivotal temperature varies significantly between clutches. In fact, when incubated at the estimated pivotal temperatures, clutch sex ratios ranging from 100% male to 100% female were obtained. These results indicate that pivotal temperature studies should control for clutch-specific variation by using large numbers of clutches. This should be taken into account when designing pivotal temperature studies for sea turtles.

Turtle harvest is still permitted in British Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands, Montserrat and the Turks and Caicos Islands but is completely prohibited in Bermuda. Anguilla has imposed a temporary moratorium on the harvest of turtles and their eggs that will be reviewed in 2005. This paper describes the diversity of turtle harvest legislation in these UK overseas territories and discusses the utility of the current legislation in each territory. This paper also describes legislative amendments as proposed by the recently completed Turtles in the Caribbean Overseas Territories (TCOT), a 3-year UK government-funded project commissioned to assess the status and exploitation of marine turtles in these territories.

AN - 20498917; 9187940 AB - The number of nesting females at Las Baulas, Costa Rica has declined dramatically. Many researchers have attempted to explain the reduction in nesting females and have hypothesized that toxicants may be a contributing factor. Potential toxicants like heavy metals and pesticides have been proposed as contributing factors by possibly reducing hatching success or fitness of hatchlings. Currently no study has documented the toxicant levels in eggs or hatchlings of any leatherback population. This study quantified the toxicants present in the unhatched eggs and dead hatchlings of the first and fourth nests of remigrants and new nesters and determined the effects of these metals on hatching/emergence success and hatchling mass and size. Metal levels were highly variable within and between groups of females. We also found no detectable levels of the pesticides tested. This study showed that there were no significant differences in metal concentrations between groups of females within the population or between nests within groups. This indicates that older females (remigrants) do not have higher levels of metals than younger females (new) and there is no tendency for females to deposit toxicants in early or later nests. Although, this study provides evidence to support the hypothesis that females accumulate metals over time, this analysis excluded new nesters. This study was unable to link metal concentration to any endpoint such as hatching/emergence success, hatchling size, or hatchling mass. Furthermore, it seems as though eggs may take up some metals from the nest environment and deposit other metals in the egg shell; unhatched eggs contain significantly more nickel, copper and cadmium and contain significantly less iron, manganese and zinc than dead hatchlings. Increasing metal concentrations during incubation may have some effect on developing embryos and necessitates further research.

Unhatched loggerhead eggs were collected from 41 nests located on beaches from three areas of the Southeast coast: western Florida (Sarasota, n=10), eastern Florida (Juno Beach, n=4; Hutchinson Island, n=5; Boca Raton, n=9; Melbourne Beach, n =4) and North Carolina (Cape Lookout, n=9). One to 10 egg yolk samples were pooled from each nest and eggs with late stage embryos were not included. Predominant PCB congeners (99, 105, 138+163, 153, 170, 180 and 187) and 4,4'-DDE were measured using gas chromatography with electron capture detection. The respective average nest concentrations (ng/g lipid) c SD of predominant PCBs and 4,4'-DDE were 1060c1100 and 816c901 for North Carolina, 199c355 and 116c232 for eastern Florida and 25.6c36.3 and 22.6c25.3 for western Florida. Significant differences were found for PCBs (p = 0.001) and 4,4'-DDE (p < 0.05) concentrations among these areas (Kruskal-Wallis test). North Carolina nests had the highest levels and also exhibited the highest incidences of embryonic abnormalities, such as embryos with two heads, crossed-jaws, or microcephalic heads. This finding suggests that POPs may have a larger impact on reproduction in the northern subpopulation, which has not shown signs of recovery. Because these compounds are transferred maternally into the eggs, future studies should compare where nesting females feed in order to address why the northern subpopulation accumulates higher levels.

Both beaches are principally olive ridley nesting sites with sporadic visits by Pacific green and hawksbill sea turtles. San Miguel also receives occasional nesting Pacific leatherback sea turtles. A Paying Participant Program (PPP) was started during the 2003 season in Punta Banco with the goals of improving beach vigilance, bringing greater social and economic benefits to community members and financial self sustainability for the project. The program turned out to be a big success in all four of these aspects. Thus the project was continued and efforts to recruit a greater number of participants was undertaken for the 2004 season. Additionally, the PPP was also started at the San Miguel project site. The PPP has provided a significant boost to the number of personnel that participate in PRETOMA's sea turtle conservation activities. Besides significantly reducing poaching levels, larger staff has resulted in an increase in the number of individual turtles identified while nesting, nests protected in project hatcheries, and hatchlings produced. Additional project personnel have also helped to improve local awareness of the project's presence. Results of more permanent vigilance during the 2004 season aimed at curbing poaching can be seen in the sharp decrease in poaching rates at Punta Banco, which dropped from 27% in 2001 to 5% in 2004 and at San Miguel, which dropped from 37% in 2001 to 9% in 2004. During the 2004 season at Punta Banco 90 nests were protected in the project hatchery, producing 8,011 hatchlings (hatchling success = 89.65%), while at San Miguel, 266 nests where protected, producing 22,383 hatchlings (hatching success =85.81%). The PPPs have been well received by local community members as they have generated substantial social and economic benefits through the creation of jobs, tourism, conservation and language education, as well as cultural interaction. Income is generated in the local economy through the provision of different food and lodging options to project participants. Education is provided by visiting local schools and establishments to teach English, discuss conservation issues and distribute literature. During the 2004 season both the Punta Banco and San Miguel projects were completely financed using monies generated by the PPP. Additionally, surplus funds generated through the PPP helped finance PRETOMA's Pacific leatherback conservation project at Playa Caletas (Guanacaste, Costa Rica) and a pilot project at Drake Bay (Puntarenas, Costa Rica).

It has approximately 2000 inhabitants. Since 1999, the population has increased due to refugees from armed conflicts in Jurado, Colombia. This has created more pressure on the sea turtles because of the increased egg consumption and sale. Besides cultural differences between the ethnic groups, there is noticeable competition for natural resources. In 2001 some protection activities were developed for the olive ridley turtle (Lepidochelys olivacea) with the 8,462 hatchlings having been successfully released. These activities are supported by the "Fundacion Casa Taller" in Panama. For the 2004 nesting season a team was organized to undertake a scientific evaluation of this area, to educate the people and to keep them motivated to protect sea turtles. The team consisted of biologists, social communicators and members of the community, both the Afro-Latin American people and indigenous groups called Embera and Wounaan. The described sea turtle project does not stand alone. It was accompanied by a network, "Red jaque", a compound of social, educational, cultural and environmental programs that are economically and socially related to each other.

At Great Brook School 5th-8th grade students in four rural communities believe leatherback turtles can be free from pollution and free from the needless other deaths brought upon them by the human population. Leatherbacks are endangered in New Hampshire and nearing extinction worldwide. This year, students became members of the first ever Great Brook School Leatherback Sea Turtle Biology and Conservation Club. Their main goal is to educate the New Hampshire public about these fascinating sea turtles and conservation efforts that can make a difference in their ultimate survival. Since leatherback turtles don't nest in New Hampshire, students and educators at Great Brook School have probably never seen them. The club created a 24"x36" art image of the leatherback turtle eating its favorite food, jellyfish. Their creation was made from thousands of little pieces of old magazines and mylar balloons. It has been displayed at Great Brook School and in local libraries in New Hampshire. Mylar (helium) filled balloons are particularly harmful to leatherback turtles. They are very long lasting balloons that stay inflated for up to 5 months. If released in the atmosphere in any part of NH, they could end up in the ocean. One balloon could kill a leatherback. The displayed artwork and poster created by Great Brook School students in grades 5th-8th was designed to foster awareness and stewardship of the leatherback sea turtle in New Hampshire. The poster depicts all the clubs activities, which also include the creation of the New Hampshire Sea Turtle Foundation web site, Leatherback Sea Turtle Coloring and Activity Book, Leatherback Turtle Educational Brochure, and Teacher's Resource Page. The club will be going on a field trip to Hampton Beach in New Hampshire to help clean up beaches of plastic and other pollution that might end up in the ocean where it could injure or kill leatherback sea turtles.

In 2003 the Florida Sea Turtle Grants Program funded RMA to further its educational efforts to protect sea turtles on local beaches. Panama City Beach is an ideal place to educate people about sea turtles, because this area hosts over three million visitors annually and the tourist season in this part of Florida coincides with the turtle season. Print materials describing the turtles that nest on our beaches were produced and distributed to beachfront homes, condos, businesses and schools. Fliers describing Bay County's new lighting ordinance to protect sea turtles were distributed to property owners in the affected area.

Entanglement netting surveys conducted at Sabine Pass, Texas and Calcasieu Pass, Louisiana during April-October 1993-2002, primarily were used to characterize long-term abundance and distribution of Kemp's ridley sea turtles at historical index habitats in this region. Additionally, an ecosystem-based approach, utilizing a conceptual model that incorporates data on nesting dynamics, environmental conditions, prey availability and predation pressure, is used in assessing factors that may influence ridley in-water abundance and distribution. Of these conceptual model components, only analyses regarding the influence of nesting activity on nearshore ridley abundance are reported in this presentation. Overall, annual mean Kemp's ridley catch-per-unit-effort (CPUE) across study areas peaked in 1994, 1997, 1999 and 2002, suggesting a 2-3 year cycle in abundance. Average clutch size and hatch success at the Rancho Nuevo nesting beach also exhibited this 2-3 year cyclic pattern, with ridley nearshore abundance most significantly related to hatch success (plotted with a 2-year lag to account for the lost years). However, trends in nearshore ridley CPUE remained relatively constant or declined slightly even as number of hatchlings released from Rancho Nuevo increased exponentially. This disparity between number of ridley hatchlings released and abundance of recruits in the northwestern Gulf is puzzling and warrants further investigation.

Optimizing survey efforts, measured by survey frequency and/or duration to achieve monitoring goals is therefore essential. Our objective was to assess the potential of a shorter survey period to capture a significant proportion of females for use in nesting population trend analysis. We analyzed the daily encounter history of nesting hawksbills in tagging programs in Antigua and Guadeloupe in the eastern Caribbean to estimate the proportion of the annual nesters that would be detected by partial-season surveys of varying lengths. We chose partial-season surveys lasting 18, 21, 30 and 45 days. The histories are summed by survey start date for the length of the selected partial-season. The detection probability is thus the proportion of the year's nesters captured by the shorter survey. The probabilities are calculated for each survey year and then averaged over all seasons. This allowed us to estimate peak detection probabilities. Modeling the temporal distribution allows us to maximize survey effectiveness by providing an optimal sampling time frame to conduct partial-season surveys. For the Antiguan population, surveys greater than 30 days in August will capture more than 60% of the entire season's nesters. Peak detection probabilities in Guadeloupe are in late June and early July and capture up to 80% of the females during a 45-day survey. The precision of the surveys (indicated by lower CVs) improves as the partial-season sampling period increases. However, the gain in precision is relatively modest, with CVs decreasing from 0.15 (15%) for 18-day surveys to 0.09 (9%) for 45-day surveys. The precision of the estimates from partial-season surveys will determine how useful a sub-sampling method is for population trend analysis because statistical power is very sensitive to the precision of parameter estimates (Gerrodette, 1987). We hypothesize that the differences in peak nesting in Antigua and Guadeloupe might be artifacts of closed season fisheries regulations.

Upon capture the animals were weighed, tagged and photographed. Ten corresponding measurements for morphometric analysis were obtained as well as blood samples for genetic and testosterone analysis. In an effort to develop blood and plasma chemistry reference ranges in wild loggerheads, whole blood and plasma were submitted to Antech Diagnostic Lab and analyzed for 26 blood parameters; mean, median as well as standard deviation values are presented. Selected relevant parameters in "healthy" animals are compared with those of clinically ill animals captured in the same SCDNR project.

Current-use compounds have recently been found at significant concentrations in wildlife and humans. Two classes of compounds of emerging interest are the perfluorinated compounds (PFCs), used as stain repellents and in fire-fighting foams and food packaging and the flame retardants, polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs). This study examined 12 PFCs in plasma of 73 loggerhead and 6 Kemp's ridley sea turtles. Juvenile turtles were captured in Core Sound, North Carolina (NC) and in offshore waters of South Carolina (SC), Georgia (GA)and Florida (FL). Perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) were the predominant PFCs detected with respective mean (standard deviation) concentrations of 11.0 (17.2) ng/mL and 3.20 (1.49) ng/mL for loggerhead turtles and 39.4 (17.1) ng/mL and 3.57 (0.55) ng/mL for Kemp's ridley turtles. PFOS concentrations were comparable to PFOS concentrations measured in human serum, but they were 3 to 10 times higher than the concentration of OPCBs typically measured in the blood of these turtles. Gender did not influence the OPFC concentrations in loggerhead turtles.

Ironically, these trees are prone to falling down due to their shallow root system, thus limiting beach access to nesting sea turtles. The pines also invade disturbed areas and out-compete native vegetation. In March 1998, Rookery Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve, managed by Florida Department of Environmental Protection, removed standing and fallen Australian pines from Keewaydin Island, Collier County, Florida in effort to restore native biodiversity and reclaim sea turtle nesting beach habitat. The present study used Geographic Information System (GIS) to examine loggerhead, Caretta caretta, nesting patterns and determine whether turtles were using areas of the beach that were previously inaccessible due to the fallen pines. Beginning in 1998, Global Positioning System (GPS) locations were recorded for each nest and false crawl. The project would be considered successful in restoring nesting beach habitat, if sea turtles were using natural areas and areas where the fallen pines were removed in equal proportions. During 2001, 2002 and 2004, temperature data loggers were deployed in sea turtle nests to determine whether the shade from the pines altered hatchling sex ratios. Control loggers were also deployed along the dune throughout the nesting season to examine incubation temperatures in areas where Australian pines were present, Australian pines removed and native vegetation. Histology was conducted on dead hatchlings found in excavated nests to verify predicted sex ratios.

The San-San Pond-Sack Wetland Reserve comprises three black sand beaches, Sixaola (3.5 km), San-San (4 km) and Soropta (12 km), all of which host important levels of leatherback nesting. In 2004, monitoring and conservation efforts were concentrated along 5 km of the Soropta beach. Along this beach section, the killing of nesting females was reduced by 100%, in comparison with previous years. Two female leatherback turtles were killed along 7 km of unprotected beach at Soropta. A nest survey along the Sixaola and San-San beaches, conducted in April, revealed twelve and three dead leatherback females respectively. These turtles were most likely killed for their eggs and ovaries. The efforts of the National Environmental Authority (ANAM) and local communities on the two beaches were insufficient to deter the killing of nesting females. Observations of tagged individuals show that leatherbacks from other nesting beaches in the region emerge to nest in the San-San Pond-Sack Wetland Reserve. Therefore, the continued killing of nesting leatherback turtles at the Sixaola, San-San and other unprotected beaches in Bocas del Toro Province threatens to undermine leatherback conservation efforts in the Caribbean Panama and Costa Rica.

However, many rookeries remain to be sampled before reliable stock assignments can be made on foraging grounds. Here we present new and updated haplotype frequency data for two key rookeries and explore how inclusion of these new data in mixed stock analysis changes our understanding of stock composition from previously published studies. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplotypes from the St. Croix (updated) and Costa Rica (newly published in Troeng et al. 2005) nesting population were amplified using new primers designed by Alberto Abreu-Grobois to amplify a larger base pair region than previously reported in Bass et al. 1999. Re-amplification with the new primers allows for two of the haplotypes reported by Bass (F and Q) to be further broken down into several haplotypes, revising the population sub-structuring results presented in earlier mixed stock analysis. Bayesian mixed stock analysis for the Mexico, Cuba, Puerto Rico and USVI foraging stocks were analyzed using previously published data from Bass et al. 1999, Diaz-Fernandez et al. 1999 and the new data described above. Results were then compared with previously published data in order to determine changes in the relative contribution rates with the addition of potential source stocks. Pairwise comparisons testing for homogeneity among nesting sites were also performed.

The nesting season has a peak period, where a large number of turtles nest between May and October and a smaller number of turtles nest between November and April. The seasonal genetic diversity was investigated by sequencing a mtDNA control region for 54 hatchlings and 44 adults. The samplings were taken at random during peak and non-peak periods from nests or beaches of over 12 miles of shoreline. One hatchling or adult was sampled from each examined nest. The results indicate that there are eight novel haplotypes, suggesting different subpopulations at the Reserve. Two of the eight are dominant haplotypes. This is only a preliminary study and more extensive data analysis is needed to make a definitive conclusion. The results of this study will be of value to the conservation program at the reserve in Oman.

Specifically, we tested the effectiveness of blue-dyed bait in reducing sea turtle bycatch. An analysis of data made after 22 sets suggest that blue dye is not an effective sea turtle deterrent for longline fishing operations. The research was also designed to understand survivorship and behavior of sea turtles post-capture by placing pop-up satellite archival tags on turtles released from longline fishing gear.

ArcGis software can be a useful tool to study distribution patterns of sea turtles. The objectives of this study were: a) to evaluate relative influence of several temporal and spatial parameters in the distribution patterns of loggerhead sea turtles and b) to determine if GIS can be used to estimate distribution patterns. Data from 343 sets collected during five longline fishing experiments (2000-2004) carried out within EEZ of the Azores archipelago were used. Caught loggerheads (n=491) were plotted by time of day and month to determine the influence of these temporal factors on the bycatch pattern. Spatial analyses by ArcGIS 8.3 (ESRI) were applied to examine the relative influence of bathymetry and slope on the distribution of sea turtles.

Sea turtles migrate in to these waters each spring when sea temperatures reach approximately 18 C and migrate out in the fall as temperatures decrease. Each year between 200 and 400 sea turtle stranding deaths are recorded within Virginia's waters, the peak of this stranding period occurring during the spring migration in late May and early June. Several fisheries are operating during this spring migration period, including the whelk pot fishery. The whelk pot fishery is a relatively new fishery to Virginia's waters and may pose a threat to the seasonal population of loggerheads in the Chesapeake Bay and the coastal waters. Loggerhead turtles appear to be attracted to whelk pots by horseshoe crabs used as bait and targeted whelk species (Busycotypus canaliculitus). Upon interactions, these turtles may become entangled in the bridle and subsequently suffer serious injury or death. The purpose of this research was to determine which type of whelk pot and bridle attachment method reduces loggerhead sea turtle entanglements while still fishing efficiently. Several voluntary observer trips were conducted with a whelk pot fisherman setting pots in the lower Chesapeake Bay and coastal waters. Catch data for each hauled pot and pot type were recorded. Preliminary results indicate that three of the whelk pots resulted in similar CPUEs for whelks. Evidence of sea turtle interactions was also documented at this time. There were no incidences of sea turtles caught as by-catch during these trips. However, evidence of sea turtle interactions was present including: missing bait bags, chewed shells, frayed bungee cords and mangled crab pot wire. Eight more voluntary observer trips will be conducted to obtain additional catch data. In spring 2005 tank experiments will be conducted at the NMFS Laboratory in Galveston, Texas using captive-reared loggerhead sea turtles. Turtle interactions with each type of whelk pot will be examined. The bridle configuration will then be modified to discern any changes during turtle interactions. Results for this portion of the experiment are forthcoming.

To determine the causes of this difference, we evaluated the effects of spatial position, rainfall, air and sand temperature on hatching and emergence success, incubation time and fate of nests. Nests were monitored daily from March to December 2001. Nests were classified in zones based on sunlight exposure (open, partial exposure and closed canopy). Distance from the nest to high-tide was also measured. Hatching and emergence success was determined from excavated nests. Incubation time was longer in vegetation than in open-zone in green turtle nests. The fate of nests also varied, with a slightly higher number of depredated and inundated nests in border-vegetation and washed over nests in the open zone. Leatherbacks only nested in the open; 33 and 39% of the nests were washed out and over, respectively. The number of undisturbed nests was low compared to green turtles (18.75% vs. 54.87%). The distance to high-tide and vegetation varied between species; leatherbacks nested closer to the water and greens closer to vegetation. Leatherback nests close to high-tide had lower nesting success; however, green nesting success was not affected by proximity to the water. Incubation time decreased with higher sand temperatures in both species and hatching success decreased with longer incubation periods in leatherbacks. Nesting success was higher in deeply buried nests in both species. It seems likely that the low nesting success of leatherbacks is due to nesting zone selection with respect to proximity to the high-tide and vegetation line.

The ontogenetic habitat shift from the oceanic to the neritic zone is certainly the most important one, affecting the population's demography. The size-at-recruitment of the neritic zone differs between loggerhead populations worldwide. Although size class analysis of several studies suggested an early recruitment in the northern Adriatic of small juveniles, size at ontogenetic habitat transition and diet of early juvenile stages remained unknown. In order to gain insight into the ontogenetic habitat shift from the perspective of the feeding ecology of these early stages, we focused our study on the smallest loggerheads that recruit in the northern Adriatic, with CCLn-t < 40 cm.

To interpret stable isotope data, the difference in isotope ratios between diet and tissues when they are at equilibrium (= discrimination) must be quantified and the time it takes for equilibrium to be reached (= turnover) must be determined. These values can only be obtained with certainty under controlled conditions and they have never been determined in sea turtles. We derived diet-tissue discrimination and isotopic turnover rates of stable carbon and nitrogen (13C/12C and 15N/14N) in post-hatchling loggerheads (n=120). Under controlled conditions, loggerheads were initially fed a soy-based diet (mean 813C: -22.27 c 0.07, mean 815N: 3.25 c0.13) containing minimal amounts offish oil (menhaden) for 128 days. A treatment group (n = 11) was then switched to a herring based diet (mean d 13C: -21.29 c 0.08, mean 815N: 9.45 c 0.11) for 232 days. Blood, epidermis and scute samples were collected at specific intervals. An exponential model described patterns of isotopic turnover for 13C and 15N in loggerheads. After turnover was reached, discrimination values were determined for the three tissues. These values will allow researchers to use stable isotopes to address ecological questions.

Are these two parameters, unique to turtles, related to hearing? The simplest assumption is that hatchlings are just smaller versions of adults and their hearing abilities are essentially mirrored. Cochlear potentials data from one fresh water species support this view, in terms of the inferred audiometric thresholds from 100-1000 Hz. Hair cell counts for receptors on the basilar membrane are similar for hatchlings and adults, consistent with similar audiograms.

The changes in water potential and nest temperature throughout the incubation period were compared in a partially-blocked cage with horizontal water cut-off (the caged nest) and a nest without caged isolation (the uncaged nest). Results showed that caged isolation had a significant impact on water potential, especially during the second phase of development. This, in turn, decreased the nest temperature throughout the incubation period, affecting the hatching success and phenotypic characteristics of the hatchlings. Thus, a decrease in water potential had a negative impact on reproductive fitness of the population. Results of the study suggest that the dry tensior is a valid instrument for the field study of sea turtle embryogenesis.

The degree to which sea turtles are attracted to and incidentally entangled in, fishing gear and bait is not well understood. A collaborative investigation is underway to characterize the sensory biology of sea turtles so that a comprehensive assessment of attractants and repellants may be made. We conducted experiments with juvenile loggerhead turtles at the NOAA Fisheries Sea Turtle Facility to investigate behavioral responses to various chemical cues. Our objectives were to develop a behavior assay to effectively quantify responses of loggerhead turtles to sensory stimuli and to test chemicals that could potentially be used as turtle repellents.

Both turtles and blue water fishes are highly visual animals, suggesting that visual attraction plays a role in interactions with longline fishing gear. In our study we compared the visual capabilities of sea turtles and a number of blue water fishes with the hope of finding differences that might be used to design more species-specific fishing gear. We investigated eye design and optics, sensitivity to light and spatial resolving power, as well as the possibilities for colour vision in green turtles (Chelonia mydas), tunas (Thunnus spp.) and billfishes (Istiophoridae & Xiphiidae). Compared to blue water fishes the eyes of sea turtles appear to be better adapted for bright light vision, with a longer focal length and a smaller pupil in relation to the size of the eye. Billfishes and tunas have a more restricted range of spectral sensitivities (colour vision). For instance, longer wavelength (such as red) are invisible to swordfishes but not to sea turtles. We also found that the lenses of tunas and billfishes block ultraviolet (UV) light, while the ocular media (cornea, lens and vitreous humor) of green turtles transmit it, potentially allowing these animals to perceive UV light. We conclude that there are a number of differences in visual capabilities that could potentially be used for designing more species-specific fishing methods.

Using commercial fishing vessels as a platform for research, this population has been studied for five years. Morphometric data collected from leatherbacks captured at sea and from stranded animals reveal that waters of the western Atlantic north of 44N are principally utilized by large sub-adult and adult turtles. Confirmation of nesting origins of 16 turtles demonstrates that leatherbacks from widely disparate nesting sites aggregate in Canadian waters. Preliminary recapture data suggests that projects monitoring nesting populations in the Caribbean and South America encounter a large percentage of mature females that forage off the Atlantic coast of Canada. While it has been suggested that northern foraging populations of Atlantic leatherbacks have male-biased sex ratios, our sample indicates that this may not be so.

Recent stranding data, is summarized by week, species and location (state and/or statistical zone) and is posted on a near real-time basis. After data forms are received, entered and verified, yearly summary data is made available through an Online Report interface. Online reports, currently available for 1998-2001, can be utilized to generate data summaries for any combination of year, month, region, statistical zone, state, county and species. Additional years, both recent and historical (back to 1980 when the STSSN was established), are currently being verified and will be added as available. Use of these data is subject to agreement to terms detailed in a data access policy posted on the website. Online data access is a valuable tool that can be utilized by network participants, fisheries managers and the general public to further marine turtle conservation efforts. In addition, general information regarding the history of the STSSN and current contact information for each state coordinator is available. The current version of the stranding data report form and information on how to complete it is provided. Links to useful reference materials, such as an anatomy manual, necropsy manuals, necropsy report forms and training videos are maintained. Links to state specific sea turtle stranding websites are also provided.

As part of our conservation project, we decided to direct our awareness campaign to the fishermen, because they have a direct interaction with sea turtles during their fishing activities. Port authorities were contacted for their support in the coordination of awareness talks with the fishermen of the inlets and ports along the coast. The talks included sea turtle evolution, adaptations, ecology, life cycle, threats and mitigation measures. Furthermore, materials were designed, such as posters, stickers and pamphlets; to be distributed to the public and posted in the markets and docks so people who want to buy sea turtle meat may think twice. We found it very difficult to get the people interested. We realize some fishermen are not interested in conserving sea turtles. In fact, as some of them kill them or have done it before they are afraid they are going to be blamed. But we have also found that some of the fishermen do have an interest in what could happen if these animals go extinct. So we are making them think about the consequences. The most important output is that, step by step, fishermen can change the ways they act with sea turtles.

This is a natural area for the conservation of flora and fauna and it is the only place in the Caribbean coast of Guatemala where hawksbill and other species of sea turtles, like greens and leatherbacks, nest. The objective of the project was to call the attention of students to the conservation of sea turtles, because the people of the communities collect and sell the eggs of sea turtles.

The tissue samples were fixed in 10% formalin for minimum of 48 h, dehydrated through a graded series of alcohols, embedded in paraffin and sectioned at 8 km. Sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin and examined with a light microscope. Histological analysis of gonads and sex determination followed Merchant-Larios (1999). Gonads composed of flat, monostratified surface epithelium and seminiferous tubules with more or less differentiated germ/ spermatogenic cells were determined to be testes while ovaries exhibited membranous structure, folded, often partly transparent, enclosing spherical follicles. The sex ratios are given as a male/female ratio (M:F). Based on CCLn-t, we divided loggerheads into three size classes (ontogenetic groups): pelagic (oceanic) juveniles (< 30.0 cm), post-pelagic juveniles (30.0 - 49.9 cm) and benthic (neritic) juveniles (50.0 - 69.9 cm). We tested a difference between sex ratios in different size classes by the means of a chi-square test; the Yates correction was applied when necessary. The overall sex ratio equaled 1.00. In pelagic juveniles, the sex ratio showed strong male bias (2.00), but it could be explained by the small sample size (N = 9). In both, post-pelagic and neritic juveniles we have found no significant aberration from a 1:1 ratio (0.92, N = 69 and 1.00, N = 22, respectively, p < 0.01). No difference was also found between the sex ratio in the central and the eastern Mediterranean; in both regions it equals to 1.00 (N = 42 and 58, respectively). Our results are discordant with the theoretical predictions of a strong female hatchling production in the Mediterranean. However, our findings support the results of a previous study on sex ratios of juveniles from the central Mediterranean based upon testosterone levels.

In the present work we measured the concentration of lead in the blood of individual Caretta caretta hospitalized at the WWF Seaturtle Rescue Center in Lampedusa, Sicily (Italy). One cc of heparinized blood was collected from each animal and frozen at -20C until analysis. The samples were then diluted in TRITON-X 0.05% and analysed by a Varian grafite furnace atomic absorption spectrophotometer for Pb determination. The animals were divided into three groups by carapace length, the only suitable parameter to calculate the age of sea turtles (group 1: 30-50 cm; group 2: 50-60 cm and group 3: over 60 cm). The following values (kg/g) were obtained (mean c S.E.): group 1: 29.44 c 2.44; group2: 32.69 c 3.79 and group 3: 34.73 c 3.05. These lead levels (30 c 14.5 ppb) are two-fold higher than those detected in the blood of Texas and Louisiana Kemp's ridley sea turtles. This difference can be explained by the fact that the species studied and the areas where the two studies took place are very different. However these lead levels are lower than concentrations found in C. caretta tissues from the Mediterranean Sea and under the background level defined for reptiles at 100 ppb. Considering existing toxic thresholds for lead, there seems to be no concern about sea turtles health. Analysis of whole blood can be a safe method to monitor lead levels in live sea turtles, even though it may be a conservative estimate of this load when compared with potentially higher levels in other tissues.

Mote Marine Laboratory has monitored nesting sea turtles along Sarasota County beaches since 1982. The present study made a retrospective analysis of this historical monitoring data to evaluate the effects of beach nourishment in comparisons of non-nourished and repeatedly nourished beaches. The dataset consisted of 14 years of monitoring data (1990-2003) for Longboat Key (treatment- five separate nourishments) and Siesta Key (control-no nourishments). The dataset compiled records for 8429 loggerhead emergences (4573 nests, 3856 false crawls) for 17.6 km of beach over the course of five nourishment projects on Longboat Key (1993, 1997, 1998, 2001, 2003). We compiled dependent variables for nesting success (#nests/ (#nests + false crawls)), nesting frequency per km and hatching success (#hatched/#eggs) for the two beaches. To avoid spatial pseudo-replication, we also compared control and impact sites on Longboat Key. The analysis will later be extended to include other replicate sites in a before-after control impact (BACI) design. This preliminary project reports the first stage of a larger scale research project. Findings-(l) Four of the five nourished stretches of Longboat Key had significant drops in nesting success in the post-nourishment year. The 1993, 1998,2001 and 2003 nourishment projects were followed by -30%, -6%, -30% and -27% drops in nesting frequency, respectively. The 1997 nourishment project marked a +22% increase in nesting frequency to the preceding year. The projects in 1993, 1998 and 2003 received sand from a tidal inlet, whereas the 1997 and 2001 projects took fill from offshore. The effect of beach nourishment on nesting success was less dramatic in the 2nd year following nourishment. Four of five nourishment projects for the 2nd year post-nourishment had an improved nesting success, with respect to the 1st year post nourishment. (2) Over all years, nourished beaches in the 1st year post-nourishment were significantly lower in mean nesting success. By the 2nd year of post-nourishment monitoring though, most beaches still hosted slightly lower (though not significantly so) nesting in comparison to non-nourished or 1st year post-nourished beaches. There was substantially more variability in nesting success (compare the ranges) for 1st and 2nd year post-nourished beaches than for pre-nourished or non-nourished beaches. (3) Beach nourishment had no significant effect on the hatching success. The mean hatching success was highest on 2nd year post-nourishment beaches and 1st year post-nourished beaches, respectively. This may be an influence of higher elevation on a nourished beach, but other factors may contribute as well. However, there was substantial variation for individual nests as well as among the beaches. The highest and lowest mean nesting successes is less than 4%. (4) Incubation temperatures at nest depth from representative beach sections, measured by I-button data loggers, suggest that nourished beaches with darker sediments (Longboat Key) had higher incubation temperatures and greater daily thermal variance than on a non-nourished beach (Siesta Key). We intend to repeat the thermal monitoring to better evaluate the potential effects on hatchling sex ratio from differing incubation regimes at nourished and non-nourished beaches.

It has been observed that the nesting season following a renourishment project usually sees a sharp decline in the number of nests for the affected area. Consequentially, neighboring beaches that were not renourished see an increase in the number of nests. The number of nests in both renourished and non-renourished areas usually returns to normal for the following year's nesting season. Thus, the undesirable quantity in renourished beaches is temporary. One possibility for this undesirable quantity is the high dissolved solids content of the dredged sand. Since renourishment projects occur in dry season of the Florida climate, the sand's content is relatively unchanged after being pumped onto the beach. The massive rainfall characteristic of the summer months in Florida may dilute the sand dissolved solids. This study will investigate the relationship between high total dissolved solids (TDS) in the sand and decrease of sea turtle nesting in a given area.

I. AN - 20497022; 9188124 AB - The 2004 nesting season marked the 5th consecutive year of the leatherback nesting monitoring programme in Grenada. Focused primarily on the North Eastern tip of Grenada, the research programme was established in 2000 to identify the existing status of this population. Initial findings in the first year of research highlighted Grenada as host to a regionally significant nesting leatherback population. Track surveys have been consistently recorded on 2 beaches since then, showing a rise to over 700 nests in 2003. Due to the physical profile and size of Levera beach (700m index site), it was feasible to conduct a saturation tagging programme from 2002; 57 females were tagged increasing to 183 in 2003. Tag returns were recorded in 2004 with sightings of turtles from Trinidad, Panama and Grenada's sister isle, Carriacou. Turtles tagged in Grenada were also recorded on beaches in St. Vincent, Carriacou, Trinidad & Tobago. Hatched and unhatched nests were excavated over 3 years for both nests laid in situ and those that were relocated. However, the physical properties of the beach have been drastically altered by the development of an 18 hole golf course situated lm from the beach. This may have played a significant role in the reduction of hatching success along certain zones of the beach. Illegal egg poaching activities remain problematic, initial observations recorded a high rate of poaching (91%) during peak season. Although poaching has decreased as a result of research efforts and beach presence, the local demand for the eggs remains high.

In peninsular Malaysian hatcheries, emerging hatchlings are restrained from running directly to the ocean by nest nets and rely on hatchery staff for their release. We sought to determine whether effects of short-term restraint for 1, 3, or 6 hours affected running speed or mass:length ratios, an indicator of hatchling residual yolk mass reserves and hydration. Twenty-five hatchlings were collected from each often nests as they emerged. Immediately following emergence, ten hatchlings were subjected to a running test and had their mass and straight carapace length measured. Subsequently, five hatchlings were subjected to the same tests at intervals of 1, 3 and 6 hours after emergence. Running speed of hatchlings decreased significantly over each time period. Hatchlings tested 6 hours after emergence ran 50% slower than hatchlings tested when they first emerged. Mass:length ratio did not decrease after the first hour but significantly decreased after 3 hours and 6 hours of restraint. A decreased running speed would increase the exposure of hatchlings to nearshore predators and may indicate a reduction in activity and energetic status. Decreased mass: length ratio over the 6 hours indicated increased absorption of the residual yolk sac and dehydration, which could compromise the vigor and duration of offshore dispersal. Therefore, we recommended that hatcheries be checked at least every hour to release all emerged hatchlings immediately and maximise the speed and duration of hatchling dispersal.

Recognizing that the use of proper disentanglement techniques can increase the probability of post-capture survival, we developed a leatherback turtle disentanglement video with the assistance of volunteer fishers. The video demonstrates actual entanglement scenarios and releases and was distributed to more than 500 fishers across Atlantic Canada. Combined with a strong and consistent public outreach and education program, the video offers much promise in mitigating the effects of fisheries interactions on this species.

This study evaluated the interaction between fisheries and sea turtles in the marine fishing zone around Tangier, Morocco. Data sheets and measuring tapes were distributed to fishermen willing to collect information on turtles caught in their fishing gear. Between June 2003 and September 2004, fishermen reported 21 accidental captures. Except for one leatherback, all captured turtles were loggerheads, consistent with other studies on bycatch in the area. The mean size of the captured loggerheads was 55.2cm CCL, suggesting that most were likely juveniles or sub-adults, although loggerheads with <60cm CCL have been observed nesting in Cape Verde. More in-depth studies are planned to evaluate the impact of fisheries along the Atlantic coast of Morocco.

This area had been an independent country called "Ryukyu" before the kingdom was annexed by Japan in 1879. The Ryukyu Kingdom was a small country, which occupies only 1 % of the current Japanese territory. Its national security had depended on the tribute mission of China. All exchanges between other countries had been conducted by ships, including the tribute mission. Formerly Okinawa had traded actively with each Asian country as well as China, so the living culture has reflected such historical background. In Okinawa during the great trade period, there were some families (paternal akin community) whose sailing ancestors had suffered a shipwreck, but had been saved by sea turtles. These events are reported in the archive "Kyuyou", which is a history book of the Ryukyu Kingdom.

Performing one comparison at a time, significant differences were found when comparing time and space of emergences and nestings. Nesting and emergences reached the highest frequency in the month of July, although it varied between beaches. No relationship was found between total emergence and the ambient temperature, but there was a relationship between precipitation and relative humidity. As for the geomorphology of the beach, it was found that nesting occurred mostly at the level of the vegetation) and in areas of the beach free of obstacles, like big rocks on the shore. Another factor that seems to influence nesting is marine currents, due to their effect on the nesting frequency per beach and the trajectory of entrance of the turtles onto the beach.

Being the Big Island's only easily accessible black sand beach, Punalu'u is a popular tourist destination. Most tourists eagerly photograph the basking turtles, but some inevitably attempt to ride or beat on the turtles' carapaces. Several programs have been initiated to prevent turtle abuse at Punalu'u including volunteer monitoring of basking turtles, educational sign postings at the site and the creation of websites that discourage inappropriate behavior. Signs and websites are effective for some tourists but are frequently overlooked. The constant supervision of tourist activity is a frustrating task for volunteers who would prefer educating to scolding visitors. Furthermore, many tourists are ignorant of the turtles' threatened status and the detrimental effects of their actions. They admit that prior knowledge would have discouraged inappropriate behavior. This situation begs for more proactive methods to alleviate turtle harassment. Suggestions include: 1. Enlist the aid of local hotels, resorts, airlines and tour companies via presentations and informational packets, 2. Provide inter-island airlines with conservation brochures to place in seat backs of flights going to the Big Island, 3. Encourage hotels and resorts to distribute educational brochures in their rooms and include conservation information on their websites, 4.

In the present study we investigated if hatchling loggerhead sea turtles have the ability to detect polarised light. Animals that have this ability may use the information for orientation. Turtle hatchlings were collected from nests, placed in a harness and tethered in a circular tank filled with sea water. To mask the earth's magnetic field, a small magnet was placed on the dorsal side of the harness. An LED light source was placed inside the tank, just above the water surface. The tank was illuminated from above with linearly polarised light, created by a sheet of HN-32 Linear Polaroid filter. The hatchlings were allowed to swim towards the LED with the Polaroid filter in place. The LED was then removed and the hatchling's orientation behaviour was monitored. Most turtles established a steady course towards the LED when first placed inside the tank. When the LED was removed, the hatchlings apparently lost their ability to orient, despite the presence of polarised light. This initial experiment failed to provide evidence that hatchling loggerheads use linearly polarised light for orientation during the first few hours after emerging from their nests. Nevertheless, we cannot exclude the possibility that such a sensory ability exists and that it can be demonstrated under different experimental conditions.

The activities of environmental education are applied principally to children of primary, secondary and young people from high school. By means of this program, workshops have been developed in local schools and turtle camps. The activities also le t adults get involved when they come as volunteers. We have observed these activities help the communities get more involved and take part more directly in the conservation of these chelonians, adding and adopting a sense of property towards the sea turtles and the natural resources in general.

AN - 20496681; 9188019 AB - Sea turtle hatchlings emerge from underground nests and immediately crawl to the ocean. Several experiments have provided evidence that this sea-finding behavior is mediated primarily by visual cues such as light intensity and horizon elevation. Hatchlings may crawl toward a lower, brighter seaward horizon or away from a dimmer, elevated landward horizon (Salmon et al. 1992; Mrosovsky and Kingsmill 1985). On moonless nights or on beaches with little slope, however, visual cues may not reliably indicate seaward direction. It is therefore possible that additional sensory cues, such as the sounds of breaking waves, help guide hatchlings to the ocean under some conditions. To investigate whether hatchling loggerheads use wave sounds as an orientation cue, hatchlings were placed in the center of a runway in complete darkness and exposed to wave sounds emanating from a speaker placed at one end of the runway. Under these conditions, the turtles did not demonstrate a significant preference for crawling toward or away from wave sounds; instead, approximately half of the turtles oriented in each direction. Although additional studies are needed, these initial results are consistent with the interpretation that auditory cues are not used by loggerhead hatchlings in sea-finding.

Since 1998, three beaches have been monitored during the turtle breeding season by "Projecto Cabo Verde Natura 2000". The beaches monitored - Calheta, Ervatao and Ponta Cosme - are located in the southeast coast of Boa Vista Island. Between 29th August and 30th September 2004 70 recently dead hatchlings were collected. Only hatchlings found dead due to natural causes were collected. Hatchlings were preserved in 10% formalin and necropsied in the laboratory. Duplicate gonads were withdrawn for histological sex assignment. This work provides an update of the first preliminary assessment of this population's sex-ratio done in 2003, using a larger sample size.

Critical habitat was defined for these highly vulnerable populations by tracking internesting movements and migrations to foraging grounds in a range of Caribbean jurisdictions. Degree of site fidelity for nesting and foraging was elucidated over the course of two reproductive seasons for an individual green turtle. Oceanic internesting intervals/post-nesting oceanic circles were observed in loggerhead and green turtles. This research highlights the effectiveness of community sponsored conservation efforts and presents new information on the migrations and habitat requirements of endangered Caribbean green and loggerhead turtles.

The eggs were laid on an area of the beach that could be washed away by waves as there is much sand erosion in the area. An experienced monitor, Mr. Svendsen, relocated the eggs up beach, counting them, and observing and counting the numbers that hatched later in May. This would be a presentation with a video of the turtle, eggs being laid, removed and the process of relocating. Ms. Mccroy made the video. Mr. Svendsen has been doing this for at least 4 years and has data on all years. The video would be accompanied by an introduction by Ms. McCroy and by a question and answer period by both presenters. St. Kitts is an unknown and undeveloped area in everyway in terms of information/knowledge about nesting turtles. The Ministry of Tourism and the Fisheries dept have both taken no action on a United Nations/Caribbean Environmental program suggestions for preserving turtle life done in 1992. There will be a handout on the difficulties of conservation attempts in Caribbean countries as relates to sea turtles by Patricia McCroy.

Four species of sea turtles are known to nest here, but the leatherback (Dermochelys coriacea) is by far the most abundant. Since 1998, our organisation (Aventures Sans Frontieres) has been monitoring some of the most significant nesting sites, including Pongara, Iguela and Mayumba (in the north, center and south, respectively). The Mayumba leatherback nesting population is considered among the largest in the world. However, there are extensive stretches of coastline where access is difficult and where nesting records have only been anecdotal. Thus, aerial surveys were selected as the most appropriate methodology to obtain a snapshot of nesting density and distribution along the Gabonese coastline. We surveyed from Pointe Pongara (near the capital Libreville) to the Congo border during three flights in January and February 2003. These were timed to coincide with peak nesting season and with the spring tides and were carried out at dawn, filming the beach from a light aircraft. We counted only fresh crawls from the previous night, grouping nesting and non-nesting emergences. Our work is the first of its kind published in Gabon since a single overflight carried out in 1988 and will surely play a major role in setting conservation priorities for this endangered species.

Sea turtles are secondarily marine (their ancestors were terrestrial or semi-terrestrial); all evolved flippers that propel them efficiently in the water. We studied the development of the flipper skeleton to understand how such a design might evolve. Comparison of sequential embryonic stages from limb bud to near hatching allows us to identify the pattern and process of limb formation. Specimens were collected from unhatched eggs in natural nests, preserved, staged and subsequently cleared and stained to identify skeletal elements. Caretta caretta embryos were fixed in 10% buffered formalin and cleared and stained for cartilage skeletal elements. Miller's (1985) staging criteria were used to describe embryo stages when limbs form. Specimens were prepared as whole mounts for the anatomical description of limb structures. The degree of cartilage condensation and outgrowth at each stage was described in detail as well as documented through photographs and illustrations. Sea turtle fore limbs form similarly to fore limbs of other tetrapods; however, the flipper plan is due to differences in later stages of limb growth. Flippers begin as typical limb buds which grow out laterally from the body wall. Fore limbs appear earlier during development than hind limbs. As the limbs elongate, digital plates (the prospective digits) develop distinct grooves and ridges form. The flipper then forms through prolonged elongation of the phalanges and reduced cell death in the soft tissues of the manus. Flipper development appears to be, in part, a heterochronic event in the evolution of turtle limb form.

The Onboard Tagging and Data Collection Programme (PROMACODA) was created in November 2002 to quantify the incidental capture of sea turtles and analyze its spatio-temporal distribution. PROMACODA currently has 15 participants who are fishermen, skippers, engineers, biologists and researchers. The activities undertaken onboard the fishing vessels include sea turtle rehabilitation, identification, measurement, tagging, photo identification, tissue and epibionts sampling, geopositioning and fishing effort data collection. These activities are voluntary done by the fishermen once they have concluded their fishing maneuver which takes up to 20 hours of continuous work. Up to this date, the fishermen have worked on 71 turtles, of which 56 have been tagged. This work is the testimony of a group of fishermen who are part of the PROMACODA and includes their opinion on the importance of sea turtle research and conservation projects, as well as their willingness to collaborate on them. Those fishermen answered the two following questions: "Why do you think that the existence of a sea turtle conservation project in Uruguay is important?" and "Why are you willing to collaborate and participate in a sea turtle conservation project?" The data collected by the PROMACODA are the results of the effort and commitment of some fishermen who believe that "the existence of a sea turtle conservation and research program in Uruguay is very important and will allow advancement in the conservation of marine ecosystems and achieve a sustainable and responsible fishing".

Laboratory studies of temperature and sex ratios have provided the community with good estimates of sea turtle pivotal temperatures, but may not be predictive in natural environments where temperatures are consistently changing. This project has developed a novel procedure for detecting the estrogens and testosterone in allantoic fluid and blood plasma of hatchling loggerhead sea turtles. Collection of egg fluids is non-invasive to the turtles, while blood collection is relatively easy for conservationists and scientists. Eggs were incubated in individual cups approximately 1 week prior to the estimated hatch date. Upon hatching, 2 mis of allantoic fluid were collected and 200ul of blood was collected from the 2-3 day old hatchlings. These samples were frozen, extracted twice with ethyl acetate, dried under nitrogen and finally resuspended in an acetonitrile and distilled water mixture. High performance liquid chromatography was performed in the laboratory to determine hormone profiles. These profiles were compared to known standards to determine concentrations within the initial sample and percent recovery. Steroid hormones are readily detectable in both the allantoic fluid and plasma, with estrone concentrations highest in the egg fluids. Estrone and estradiol levels are both high in the plasma. Fluid estriol levels were below equipment detection limits, but this hormone was detectable in plasma. This method could provide a means to assess sea turtle sex ratios in large populations at different ages and life stages.

Their distribution is confined to the southern part of peninsular and insular Italy, between the Calabrian coast and the Pelagie Islands (Sicilian channel). The best-known regular nesting sites are located in the Pelagie islands, an archipelago well known for its strong natural values. These are the Conigli beach, on Lampedusa and the Pozzolana di Ponente beach, on Linosa. This presentation endeavors to represent an updated picture of the Calabrian and Sicilian nesting areas. We have thoroughly investigated the 2 sites on the Pelagie Islands since the late spring of 2000. In 2000-2003, this study was carried out within the framework of the EU-Life Project "Urgent conservation measures for Caretta caretta in the Pelagie islands" (LIFE99 NAT/IT/006271). We will continue this investigation in 2004-2006, within the framework of LIFE03 NAT/IT/000163 "Reduction of the impact of human activity on Caretta and Tursiops and their conservation in Sicily". As concerns the southern Sicilian coastline, in 2004 three SCIs were monitored. All available information on this general area will be discussed, both from current and "grey" literature, as well as from verbal communications. The Ionian coast of Calabria has been monitored since spring 2000 and 26 nests were identified (2000-2004, Mingozzi et al., in press). The importance of these "new" sites may well be comparable to that of the Pelagie Islands. Future investigations, therefore, will address the number and the continuity of nidification in this area.

To gain a better understanding of the social factors associated with this ecological dilemma, a two-month, mixed-methods study was conducted in four communities in the Baha Magdalena region of BCS. Specifically, conversations with and observations of local community members and conservationists were used to construct a 24-question survey that was applied to 159 individuals from four local communities. Survey questions were designed to explore local demographic data, information-gathering habits, perceptions regarding major local environmental issues, beliefs and knowledge regarding sea turtle endangerment, extent of and reasons for sea turtle consumption and exploitation, beliefs and knowledge regarding sea turtle conservation and opinions about means to improve the conservation of these endangered species. Based on qualitative and quantitative analyses, we recommend strategies for future grassroots and mass media communication and education campaigns promoting sea turtle and environmental conservation for BCS and other regions.

This project has been linked to more than 500 students and workers, coming from very diverse institutions such as the Faculties of Biology, Physics, Chemistry, Geography, Arts and Letters, Economy, Nuclear Physics, Superior Institute of Industrial Design, National Botanical Garden, Agrarian University of the Havana, among others. The participants work closely with nature in a practically virgin area, in contrast to their daily experience which is fundamentally in the city. This is the first step in sensitizing them to the environment. In the beginning they receive information from the project specialists' through conferences and from an illustrative pamphlet of the local flora and fauna.

Therefore, the sex ratios are of ecological, evolutionary and conservational interest. Buck Island Reef National Monument (located approximately 2 km north of St. Croix) represents a natural and undeveloped nesting beach for endangered hawksbill sea turtles in the Caribbean. The purpose of the current study was to monitor hatchling sex ratios of hawksbill sea turtles produced on Buck Island during the 1995-1999 and 2002 nesting seasons. Temperature data loggers were placed into the center of the egg mass in each nest Data loggers were also placed in beach locations at midnest depth to monitor beach temperatures. Sex ratio predictions were based on the average temperature during the middle third of incubation. The results suggest that a variety of sex ratios were produced on Buck Island (ranging from all female to all male), but overall, a significant female bias was predicted in each of the six seasons examined. The results also suggest that some male-biased clutches were produced in response to temperature decreases associated with tropical weather systems passing through the study area and by nest location.

This includes oversight of individuals offering public educational opportunities that involve sea turtles. For more than a decade, trained FWC-permitted individuals have conducted nighttime turtle watches, which allow members of the public to observe a female loggerhead turtle depositing eggs into a nest. These walks, conducted under the guidance provided in FWC's Sea Turtle Conservation Guidelines, are conducted in an effort to educate the public. Turtles observed by turtle watch groups are minimally affected, making turtle watches an effective and invaluable educational tool. From 1994 to 2004, FWC-permitted organizations conducted 3,629 public turtle walks; participants in 2,475 of the walks witnessed a female loggerhead depositing eggs. A total of 105,021 people participated in turtle walks over this 11-year period. Authorized turtle watches also assisted in reducing the effects to nesting turtles due to other nighttime beachgoers; approximately 1.4% of the total number of people participating in turtle watches consisted of individuals encountered on the beach while the watch was being conducted. While the number of organizations conducting turtle walks has remained fairly consistent over this period, the number of participants has increased in recent years. Anecdotal reports suggest the number of untrained individuals attempting to observe nesting turtles has also increased. Resource managers should continue to assess potential negative effects to nesting and hatching turtles, with the highest priority on minimizing the potential harassment caused by all turtle walks. Management concerns are that the popularity of turtle watches continues to exceed the number of opportunities available to the public, possibly increasing the number of untrained individuals attempting to encounter turtles in unauthorized manners; the labor intensity associated with conducting turtle walks is great, which may discourage already permitted organizations from conducting more turtle watches than are currently allowed; extending watches into August is not as attractive because of the potential to negatively affect emergent hatchlings. Management recommendations are: it is critical that managers continually review and amend their guidelines to minimize effects on nesting turtles to the greatest extent possible; in areas where all available turtle watches consistently "sell out" and remaining demand is known to be great, managers could revise the guidelines to allow a greater number of watches per week; additional organizations could be encouraged to increase the number of turtle watches available in areas of unsatisfied demand; turtle watch organizations should be encouraged to expand their schedules to include the later part of May.

A review of arribada data from 1976-1999, failure of arribadas in recent years and a decrease in the size of breeding adults suggest a potential or imminent decline, consistent with standings of at least 100,000 dead turtles since 1994. Genetic studies suggest that this large and distinct Indian population is likely to be the ancestral source for contemporary global populations of olive ridley turtles as a result of recent (re)colonization events from the Indian Ocean. Tagging and satellite telemetry have demonstrated that at least some of these turtles forage off the coast of Sri Lanka and migrate along the east coast of India. Though > 200,000 olive ridley turtles (Lepidochelys olivacea) have been reported to nest during mass nesting events at Gahirmatha in Orissa on the east coast of India, this population currently suffers severe fishery related mortality. Unfortunately, the conservation of sea turtles in Orissa has become highly contentious, with fishing communities and conservationists deeply divided over many issues. The lack of consultation and dialogue and the unilateral implementation of conservation measures has led to the current impasse. Other threats include habitat loss, depredation of eggs, beach lighting and development projects including oil exploration and ports. Fresh approaches, that incorporate the livelihood concerns of local communities and participatory management, may provide a way forward.

Projeto TAMAR-IBAMA, the Brazilian sea turtle conservation program, has been working on nesting beaches since 1982 and on foraging grounds since 1992. Here we present an overview of the hawksbill turtle in Brazil. In the 2002/2003 nesting season about 83% of the hawksbill nests found in Brazil were on the northern coast of Bahia State, where 800 clutches are estimated to have been laid. Regarding the population nesting in that state, we present data on the number of clutches per season, clutch size, percentage of clutches by management strategy, emergence success, incubation period, curved carapace length of nesting females and remigration intervals. The main known feeding areas are located around Fernando de Noronha Archipelago and Rocas Atoll. Data on juvenile and adult hawksbills found at sea or stranded on the Brazilian coast are presented. Finally, we report the long distance movements of two hawksbills tagged in Brazil and later found in Africa.

This aspect of their life history has received much attention in recent years. The study of many marine turtle populations has suggested that there may be a high bias towards the production of females and that this may be due to climate change, presenting a possible conservation concern. The role of metabolic heating is an important factor in TSD as it has been shown to raise nest temperatures by 0.8C in leatherbacks, which could mean the difference between the production of 100% male or 100% female hatchlings. The sex is thought to be determined during the middle third of incubation. Our experiment was designed to determine the temperatures of leatherback turtle nests on the north coast of Trinidad and investigate how metabolic heating might affect the sex ratio. We recorded the temperatures in four leatherback nests. Each nest had two controls to allow metabolic heating to be measured; one in the sand and one in a false nest constructed with water filled Ping-Pong balls. The temperature in the nests ranged from 27.8C-29.3C and the mean overall metabolic heating was 0.7C. The mean metabolic heating in the middle third of the incubation period was 0.12C. It is thought that this amount of metabolic heating could affect the sex ratio of the hatchlings if the mean temperature was very close to pivotal. However, the overall temperatures during the middle third of incubation in the turtle nests never reached the pivotal temperature for leatherback turtles (29.5C). Therefore it is likely that all hatchlings produced from these nests would have been male despite metabolic heating. It is believed that metabolic heating should be taken into account when trying to estimate sex ratios from sand temperatures. More data were collected in summer 2004 which will be added to this analysis. We think it likely that seasonal temperature changes are an important factor in sea turtle determination in leatherbacks nesting in Trinidad.

Heavy metals (Pb, Fe, Se, Cd, Ni, Cu, Zn and Mn) and organochlorine residues were analyzed in four different tissues (kidney, liver, muscle and adipose) collected from 3 sea turtle species of the Baja California peninsula, Mexico. Seventeen of 21 organochlorine pesticides analyzed were detected, with heptachlor epoxide and hexachlorocyclohexane the most prevalent. PCBs were detected in 88% of the turtles studied. Levels of organochlorines detected in the present study were low, potentially attributable to the feeding habits of the predominant species collected in this study (herbivorous) and/or the samples obtained in an unindustrialized region. However, levels of some metals (Cd in particular) were exceptionally high in every species analyzed and were similar to more industrialized regions of the world. Interspecies comparisons suggest a potential effect of dietary differences in the bioaccumulation of contaminants among the herbivorous and the carnivorous turtles. The potential effects of these contaminants on the health of Baja California sea turtle populations will be discussed.

In 2001, the Maryland Department of Natural Resources initiated a sea turtle tagging and health assessment study in the Maryland portion of the Chesapeake Bay. Through the cooperation of commercial watermen, data were obtained from sea turtles that were incidentally captured in pound nets, a type of passive, stationary fishing gear utilized in the Chesapeake Bay to catch finfish. Since 2001, 58 sea turtles (37 loggerheads, 20 Kemp's ridleys and 1 green) have been examined as part of this study. Recaptures occurred from May to October, with the majority in June (n=29) and July (n=19). The loggerheads ranged in size from 52 to 105 cm (average=74.0 cm, curved carapace length, notch to tip), the Kemp's ridleys from 32 to 57 cm (average=43.4 cm) and the green measured 83.1 cm. Of these 58 animals, 7 were recaptures - 2 were previously tagged by other studies and 5 were tagged as part of this project. The recaptures occurred both within and between sampling seasons, suggesting site fidelity and demonstrating long distance migrations. Blood samples are being analyzed to aid in establishing reference ranges for loggerhead and Kemp's ridley sea turtles. Analysis of tissue samples will be performed to determine the genetic origin of sea turtles in the Chesapeake Bay. Future work includes comparing blood work results with those from other studies along the U.S. East Coast and utilizing satellite telemetry to identify habitat preference within the Chesapeake Bay and migratory routes upon leaving the Bay.

Playa La Flor is the primary beach, where the number of nesting turtles can reach 100,000 in a nesting season (104,846 in 2002). At Chacocente, 10,000 to 20,000 turtles nest for the whole nesting season, whereas Juan Venado and Peninsula de Cosiguina may receive a few thousand for the season. The threats to the olive ridley sea turtle population in Nicaragua currently include incidental death in fisheries by-catch, illegal fishing and beachfront development. Moreover, egg poaching at these sites continues to be a serious threat, at times saturating the entire national market and driving prices as low as 25 cents U.S. per dozen, down from normal prices of $2.50 per dozen. In addition to poaching there is a legal " harvest" program, whereby local communities are supposed to receive about 10% of all eggs laid on the beach; however, the eggs are additionally used as direct payment for local "volunteer" laborers, increasing the total take. Ultimately, only 6% of all eggs laid at Playa La Flor survive to hatch (2002). Additionally, there are problems with the methodology used to monitor olive ridley populations at these beaches (number of nesting turtles and hatchling numbers). The lack of funding and science-based management has resulted in both missing data and poor data analysis for any of these beaches.

Four species of marine turtles (leatherback, Dermochelys coriacea; green, Chelonia mydas; olive ridley, Lepidochelys olivacea; and hawksbill, Eretmochelys imbricatd) are known to nest on the 19 km of black sand beaches along the southern shores of the Island's Gran Caldera and Southern Highlands Scientific Reserve. For the past four (2000/01 through 2003/04) annual nesting seasons (October through April), the Bioko Biodiversity Protection Program, a cooperative enterprise of Arcadia University and the Universidad Nacional de Guinea Ecuatorial, has employed local patrols to record turtle activity on these beaches. Leatherback nests were the most common and showed the greatest year-to-year fluctuation (typically between 2500 and 6000 nests), followed by green turtles nests (between 1000 and 2000), olive ridley nests (between 50 and 100) and hawksbill nests (fewer than 20). When combined with comparable results by other scientists for the 1996/97 and 1997/98 nesting seasons, long-term trends became evident and indicated relatively stable nest counts for green, olive ridley and hawksbill turtles. Leatherback nests increased to over 5,000 for three seasons, followed by a decline to approximately 3000 in the 2003/2004 season, but all these totals are considerably higher than those recorded in the 1990's (approximately 1000 per season). Although egg-poaching is relatively rare, commercial hunting of the nesting turtles is more common, with "official" permits issued each year for the capture of 250 green turtles.

The project is called "PEYU," the Araucanos aborigine name for turtles. The Peyu Project is conducted by graduates and advanced students of the Universities of La Plata, Buenos Aires and El Salvador. The work is multidisciplinary and the participants work pro bono. The project has two lines of work: one dedicated to research into thematic areas like ethology, feeding, parasitology, genetics and fisheries; and another dedicated to educating and promoting conservation consciousness through exposure to appropriate information. This poster exhibits the result of the work done during 2004 and shows the proposal of activities to be done during 2005.

Additionally, during the last 50 years, more confirmed Kemp's ridley nests have been found at Padre Island National Seashore (PAIS) than at any other location in the USA. Kemp's ridleys that nest in Texas today are a mixture of returnees from the experimental imprinting and head-starting projects conducted in Texas and others from the wild stock. Documentation to date shows that 13 different individuals taken from Rancho Nuevo, Tamaulipas, Mexico as eggs for the experimental project to establish a secondary nesting colony at PAIS returned to lay eggs in Texas, with a total of 23 nests recorded from these head-started turtles. Additionally, eight different individuals that had been taken directly from Rancho Nuevo as hatchings between 1989 and 1993 and head-started have been recorded producing a total of nine nests in Texas. Many other confirmed Kemp's ridley nests have been documented on the Texas coast, but either the nesting turtles lacked tags linking them to the experimental imprinting and head-starting projects, or the nesting turtles were not examined for tags and hatchlings confirmed the species. As the Kemp's ridley population continues to increase and more turtles from the egg translocation and captive rearing projects as well as their offspring reach maturity, it is likely that increasing numbers of Kemp's ridleys will come to Texas to breed and nest.

There were major dredging projects taking place in Virginia at that time. Since then, a number of turtles have stranded with injuries similar to known dredge takes. Hopper dredging takes place yearly in Virginia in order to keep shipping channels deep and beaches replenished. When dredging takes place in the warmer months, interactions between sea turtles and hopper dredges occur and are known to be fatal. The Virginia Aquarium Stranding Program developed a diagnostic checklist to determine whether trauma in stranded turtles is consistent with observed dredge takes. We examined ten observed dredge takes from Virginia waters and then compared them to stranded turtles with similar characteristics. From this comparison, we developed a list of five criteria consistent with turtle/dredge interaction. The five criteria are: 1) relatively fresh condition; 2) traumatic carapace injury; 3) organs torn or mangled; 4) scutes peeling or misising at injury sight; and 5) mud entrained in tissue. Stranded turtles meeting all five criteria are considered positive for dredge interaction. Those turtles meeting four criteria are scored as possible dredge interaction. By consistently analyzing stranded turtles for dredge interaction, we will be able to provide valuable information to NOAA Fisheries and the Army Corps of Engineers for future management of turtle/dredge interactions.

Some towns where it happens are along the Pacific coasts of Costa Rica and Mexico and the north of India. In Venezuela their nesting is not known. Recaptures of tagged turtles in the east of the country indicated they are coming from nesting areas in Surinam. We journeyed to fishing establishments of the ethnos Wayiiu for interviews, observation and revision of fishing. In May 2004 a Lepidochelys olivacea was captured to the northern region of the Gulf of Venezuela by fishermen of the ethnos Wayuu and taken to fishing establishments in the High Guajira. The olive ridley's measurements were: 66.5cm curved carapace width and 64.7cm curved carapace length. It presented eight costal keels, green olive color, dehydration and wounded fins from ropes. Lepidochelys olivacea observation in the Gulf of Venezuela has been inconsistent with three reports for the study area. Pritchard and Trebbau (1984) established the first registration of L. olivacea in the northern Gulf of Venezuela, virtually to the Colombian border. Sideregts et al. presented the second report in 1987. By 2002, Parra reported a jaw of L. olivacea for the third report. This study report adds the fourth known incidence of this infrequent species on the coasts of the Gulf of Venezuela. Finally, we thought the sea turtle was taken to the market Los Filuos (Venezuela) or Maicao (Colombia) where it was sold for human consumption.

The NEC consists of the remaining undeveloped and unprotected beaches in Puerto Rico, between the towns of Luquillo and Fajardo. However, proposed large-scale development threatens these nesting beaches where the turtle population is beginning to increase. The major nesting beaches of western Vieques, an island ten miles off the eastern coast of mainland Puerto Rico, adjoin the Vieques National Wildlife Refuge, guaranteeing protection from development. The management plan includes an assessment of current monitoring techniques, stakeholder interests and local threats to sea turtles for the undeveloped beaches of Puerto Rico, both protected and unprotected. This management plan also includes data analysis materials, as well as detailed recommendations for future management and research. The management plan includes field monitoring sheets and a database for analysis of results. Also, the current status of the species and recommendations for future monitoring and research are discussed in depth.

Incidental capture in fisheries is a major limiting factor in the recovery of sea turtles in these areas. NOAA Fisheries, the agency responsible for protecting sea turtles in the marine environment, continues to implement conservation and monitoring programs, regulations and other actions under the ESA to recover these species. To further help meet ESA recovery goals for sea turtles, NOAA Fisheries is implementing the Strategy for Sea Turtle Conservation and Recovery in Relation to Atlantic Ocean and Gulf of Mexico Fisheries (Strategy). The Strategy is a new approach to reducing incidental capture of sea turtles in U.S. commercial and recreational fisheries based on evaluating sea turtle bycatch across gear types and relying heavily upon involvement of stakeholders (e.g., fishing industry, non-governmental organizations and the interested public). A strategic approach evaluating fishery impacts by gear types across state, federal and regional boundaries will increase management effectiveness. The primary objectives of the Strategy are to: (1) conserve and recover sea turtles; (2) evaluate sea turtle bycatch across gear types; (3) develop and implement measures to reduce bycatch; and (4) authorize fishery takes consistent with ESA mandates. Conservation measures will be developed using all elements of the Strategy - information gathering, research and analysis and stakeholder involvement.

Previous studies and generalizations concerning beach nourishment projects have been based on loggerhead turtles. This study compared data among nourished and non-nourished areas and between loggerhead and green turtles to establish that beach nourishment, one season post-nourishment, has statistically similar negative effects on nesting success and no significant effect on reproductive success. Physical attributes of the fill sand did not physically impede turtles in their attempts to nest as seen in previous studies; instead, the absences of factors that cue nesting behavior potentially had the greatest impact. Nest placement on the nourished profile was significantly further from the water for both species. Green turtles nested near the foredune while loggerheads nested on the gradient or the seaward crest of the berm. More loggerhead than green turtle nests were "washed out" by erosion which illustrates the importance of nest placement and the detrimental effects of the equilibration of the nourished profile to the reproductive success of loggerheads. A decrease in reproductive output during the first season post-nourishment indicates that a reduction occurred in the estimated total number of hatchlings produced regardless of similar reproductive success rates. These results demonstrate the impacts of decreased nesting success and illustrate the importance of future studies that would focus on minimizing the occurrence of nonnesting emergences associated with beach nourishment.

The Bay is an important foraging area for loggerhead turtles with many large areas of shallow sea and lagoons. It is a Ramsar site and a proposed NATURA 2000 site in the context of the European Union's Habitats Directive. The telemetry actions were part of EU co-funded LIFE Nature projects. The transmitters functioned for 71 to 555 days and the three individual turtles displayed clear differences in behaviour. Turtle A was shown to utilise two separate areas of the Bay for foraging with short distance migrations between the two and did not leave the Bay during transmitter operation (71 days). Turtle B was shown to remain in a restricted region of the Bay close to the capture site for almost the entire duration (555 days) of its transmissions. Finally, turtle C, after spending its initial seven weeks near its capture site, departed the bay and migrated to the coast of Syria then it moved north and west along the coast of Turkey. It finally settled from November 2003 until July 2004 in a restricted area of Turkey, south west of Antalya. It is not known whether this turtle nested during the summer nesting season of June and July during which time the transmitter was functioning (423 days). This study confirms the international nature of turtle conservation and the need for improved regional cooperation in conservation and management efforts.

This ability may play a role in their offshore migratory behavior. However, it is not known whether older turtles maintain this ability. To test whether juvenile turtles can determine wave direction, we observed the behavior of six juvenile green turtles as they were subjected to the orbital motion of simulated waves in the absence of other sensory information. Each turtle was tested under conditions that simulated waves approaching from one side for 5 minutes and then from the other side for five minutes. All turtles alternated between short periods of vigorous activity and longer periods of relative inactivity. During the active periods, turtles often made powerful strokes with only one of their front flippers (a behavior consistent with turning). The number of strokes made with each flipper was compared for each turtle. All turtles made significantly more strokes with one flipper than with the other during each phase of the test and, with all turtles, the flipper that was used more switched when the direction of simulated waves was reversed. The stroking behavior of five of the turtles was consistent with turning into oncoming waves while the behavior of one turtle was reversed. Therefore, while these results demonstrate that juvenile green turtles can determine the direction of waves, it is not clear how this information is used in the natural environment.

Recaptures of tagged turtles on these feeding grounds provide evidence that at least a proportion of green turtle populations migrate over geographically large distances between nesting and feeding habitat (e.g,. Dizon and Balazs 1982; Limpus et al. 1992; Limpus et al. 2003). Although tag-return data suggest that green turtles typically show a strong fidelity to their preferred feeding grounds, it is generally not known how many genetically distinct breeding stocks are represented at a feeding ground. Previous studies identified 17 genetically distinct breeding stocks or Management Units (MUs) in Australasia (East Indian Ocean, SE Asia and West Pacific; Moritz et al. 2002, Dethmers et al. submitted). These MUs provide the necessary baseline information for analyses of mixed stocks such as occur at feeding grounds. Information on which MUs are represented at a feeding ground is necessary to predict the consequences of disturbance and/or management in that area and to estimate the impact of harvests in the region and adjacent nations. In this study we present the results of genetic analyses of tissue samples taken from green turtles feeding in the coastal waters across the north Australian coast and Am, Indonesia.

Their main nesting beaches, located along the southeast and northeast coast, have been monitored and protected by the Sea Turtle National Program over the last 23 years. However, sea turtles have been killed or seriously injured in fishing gear located hundreds of kilometres southward. Santa Catarina Island, part of Florianopolis City (SC), shows a great fishing effort with industrial and artisanal boats involved in sea turtle bycatch. We present the first steps in an attempt to estimate the local impact of fishing activities. Florianopolis' artisanal communities were visited, resulting in 37 interviews with fishermen also in the location and characterisation of 24 artisanal floating-weirs following criterion of the National Plan for Reduction of Sea Turtle Bycatch. Local beaches and five floating-weirs (20.8%) were monitored daily from September 2003 to March 2004 in order to quantify standings and captures. Fourteen fishermen were authorised by the Brazilian Environmental Institute to transport turtles incidentally caught, allowing the researcher to take measurements, attach flipper tags and assess the turtles' health conditions. Under special permit of the Genetic Heritage Management Council we were able to collect biological samples for future genetic studies with the aim of identifying the origin of turtles that inhabit the region.

However most of the protection efforts for this subspecies have been focused in nesting areas and little is known related to feeding and developmental regions, such as those along the Baja California peninsula. As the landscape of Baja California is changing due to human impacts, it will be necessary to better understand the health of juvenile and adult sea turtles on their feeding grounds and to identify any possible disease conditions. Monitoring hematology and blood biochemistry can be used as a sensitive and reliable tool for assessing the health status, condition, stress and other environmental impacts if sufficient specimens are collected in a population. However a basic understanding is lacking of the normal variation in blood hematological and biochemical parameters in sea turtles and how these parameters change over differing time scales (for example: diurnal and seasonal cycles), sex, age, foraging aggregation and different feeding habits. The present project addresses the urgent need to establish normal blood and biochemistry values in black sea turtles in Baja California. In addition, we will attempt to understand how these parameters change over time scales to provide reference values for identifying natural or human related impacts due to stress, feeding habits, sex, age or disease exposure. The data collected will establish the baseline data needed as a standard for future studies of wild populations of black sea turtles in Baja California.

A moratorium had been placed on swordfish longlining in Hawaii due to excessive leatherback and loggerhead by-catch. The fishery was reopened this year under the following conditions: replacing j-hooks and squid bait with circle hooks and mackerel bait, 100% observer coverage on every swordfish vessel, a quota on the number of sets fishermen can make (half of the historical effort) and a cap on the number of interactions permitted with loggerheads and leatherbacks (17 and 16, respectively). We have a grant to study this experiment for the first year and will present preliminary results at the conference. With access to the observer data for every vessel, we will know where, when and how many sea turtle interactions occur and how many swordfish are caught. This will allow us to analyze how these new regulations will impact the swordfish industry and how effective they are at reducing turtle by-catch. Additionally, certificates will be distributed for 2005 in November, so we will also report new developments with the experiment, as well as discuss how success can be measured in such experiments. Even though the Hawaii swordfish longlining fleet is small and they are severely restricted in the number of sea turtles they can interact with, the results of this experiment could play a large role in shaping future policy decisions about the compatibility of longlining and sea turtle population recovery.

The area has a busy maritime traffic connecting the Indian Ocean to the Arabian Gulf and is one of the most oil-polluted areas of the world. In this study, conducted in 2003, trace-metal concentrations (cadmium, Cd; cobalt, Co; chromium, Cr; copper, Cu; manganese, Mn; molybdenum, Mo; nickel, Ni; lead, Pb; and vanadium, V) in livers of 6 stranded female adults and excreted through eggs of nesting females (n = 3 eggs/clutch, 8 ind.) have been analyzed at Ras Al Hadd by Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS).

The proportion of turtles stranded because of anthropogenic factors can give useful indication on the importance of these factors for the populations. Finding dead or ill turtles on the beach or floating at sea is relatively common near important foraging areas. Italy is in the center of the Mediterranean and borders some of the most important areas for sea turtles, like the Adriatic Sea, the Ionian Sea and the Sicily Channel. In Italy, several independent teams continuously monitor sea turtle standings along most of the coast, with the main purpose of rescuing live specimens. During this activity data are usually collected for each turtle, including evidence of interaction with fishing gear or of other anthropogenic factors. Data from most of these teams are pooled together and presented here in order to provide insights on the impact of human activities on turtles at sea.

Today, Loreto is also one of the few places in northwest Mexico where hawksbills (Eretmochelys imbricatd) are still found. Low population densities in Loreto Bay compared to other sites on the peninsula are evidenced from an in-water volunteer monitoring program conducted by the Grupo Tortuguero (Wildcoast 2003). The average number of hours to catch one turtle using a 100 meter-long entanglement net (20 cm mesh) was 48 hours in 2001, 144 hours in 2002 and 192 hours in 2003. Most were green turtles (Grupo Tortuguero unpubl. data).

In this study, attachment patterns of 17 epibiotic taxa on the carapace of nesting loggerhead turtles (Caretta caretta) were described. Distribution patterns of epibiota were recorded on 18 individual turtles on Wassaw Island, GA, throughout the 2004 nesting season. Turtles were tagged for individual recognition. The carapace was divided into six proportional zones and the occurrence of the 17 epibiotic taxa was recorded for each zone. The presence or absence of epibiotic species within the zones allowed for an evaluation of behavioral and environmental factors of the host that may affect the distribution patterns of epibionts over the carapace.

Students join scientists for a three-day field course to monitor and research nesting leatherback sea turtles (Dermochelys coriacea). To evaluate the success and impact of STEP, students completed pre- and post-course surveys designed to identify shifts in attitudes towards conservation, determine changes in level of knowledge of sea turtle biology, distinguish factors affecting knowledge and assess the awareness and attitudes of students regarding local poaching issues. This study analyzed surveys from 291 students participating in the program between 2001 and 2003. Overall, attitudes toward conservation and knowledge of sea turtle biology improved significantly after participation in the STEP. Attitudes on poaching, litter and the protection of sea turtles significantly shifted to a more conservation-oriented response after program participation. Student knowledge scores of sea turtle biology improved by 47%, with both pre- and post-program scores increasing over time. Students from public schools scored significantly lower on post-survey knowledge scores than students from private schools. Furthermore, student response to poaching-related issues revealed that (a) illegal poaching was present in the majority of regions represented, (b) poaching was the most commonly listed threat to sea turtle populations and (c) students considered the sale and consumption of sea turtle eggs to be a problem. This program thus results in a significant and rapid enhancement of conservation knowledge and awareness. Further research should focus on whether these effects persist in the longer term.

The data collection process can sometimes be lengthy while the reported information is, on occasion, incorrect or incomplete. Data that are accurately reported and delivered in a timely manner are crucial to making effective management decisions. To improve the data reporting process and provide managers with accurate information, we have devised an online data collection system in collaboration with SEATURTLE.ORG that will provide a fast, efficient way for STSSN participants to report information. We will present how the system works and highlight some of the main functions. These will include informative guides to aid in correctly identifying species and taking measurements, with checks to ensure each record is completely reported and options for uploading digital photos. The data collected in the system can easily be converted into summaries or tables to be used by state managers. Each uploaded record will automatically be added to the database, thereby eliminating the need to re-enter the data and therefore saving time and decreasing transcription errors. Stranding information will also be readily available to the public, making this a useful educational tool as well. The system illustrated in this presentation will serve as a model for any organization interested in collecting and organizing their data more efficiently through collaboration with SEATURTLE.ORG.

Foraging optimality models suggest that animals will select resources of high quality over those of low quality. For green turtles this behavior is important, as sufficient quantities of nutritionally adequate prey items are necessary for growth and reproduction. Therefore, an intrinsic element to understanding green turtle foraging ecology is to identify and document the availability and quality of resources selected by green turtles.

Lower nesting levels have been recorded across the rest of the Levant coast (Kasparek et al, 2001). The Mediterranean population has recently been classified as critically endangered in the IUCN Red Lists (ERASG, 1996). Syrias 183km coastline was briefly surveyed in 1991 and limited nesting (attributed to loggerheads) was found on 2 beaches at Lattakia and between Tartous and Lebanon (Kasparek, 1995). No follow-up surveys were subsequently carried out to better quantify nesting levels.

However, since their catch and bycatch are rarely monitored and enforcement is usually lacking, reducing these impacts challenges managers around the world, especially in developing nations. We employ an integrated three-part approach to loggerhead turtle conservation in BCS, Mexico: 1) we are building diverse community conservation networks, which include fishers, students, teachers, community activists, researchers and resource managers; 2) these partnerships enable us to conduct pressing ecological research in order to develop locally appropriate solutions; and 3) this knowledge is communicated strategically in order to discourage poaching and to foster responsible fishing. The novelty and strength of our approach lies in this integration plus rigorous, ongoing assessment, yielding a conservation constituency among coastal citizens characterized by local pride, empowerment and stewardship. We report preliminary results of Proyecto Caguama indicating decreased turtle bycatch, poaching and changes in local attitude. We present our integrated approach as a model to be implemented where endangered species recovery depends on small-scale fishers' involvement.

Twenty-eight of these turtles were from the south Florida nesting assemblage (15 from the east coast and 13 from the west coast) and ten were from the Florida Panhandle nesting assemblage. The females typically departed from the vicinity of the nesting beach within 24 hours of depositing what we presumed to be their last clutch. Post-nesting movements appeared to be highly directed and only a few of the turtles appeared to wander. Some of the turtles traveled along coastal routes, but some crossed deepwater even when a coastal route to their destination existed. Females departing from the same nesting beach and sharing a similar post-nesting destination did not necessarily follow the same route. However, half of the females from the east coast (8 of 15) followed a similar path (moving close along southeast Florida and the Florida Keys) as they moved into the Gulf of Mexico. Within a few weeks of departing from nesting beaches, the females took up residence in well-defined, relatively small (median of 2000 km super(2)) areas on the continental shelf adjacent to Florida, Texas, Mexico, the Bahamas and Cuba. The majority of the females (22 of 38; 60%) from both nesting assemblages took up residence off the west coast of Florida between the Dry Tortugas and Cape San Bias. With few exceptions, turtles remained in their resident areas for the duration of the life of the satellite transmitters (mean of 364 days, range 11-712 days). Some turtles had resident areas that were near their nesting beach ( 700 km). Assuming that the resident areas we identified were ones the turtles had used previously, most turtles migrated to a more distant nesting beach even though there were nesting beaches that were closer to their resident area. The distribution of resident areas of females from both nesting assemblages overlapped off the western coast of Florida, the western and northern coast of the Yucatan Peninsula and the northern coast of Cuba.

As part of its sea turtle conservation activities in the area, it has for the last 6 years been conducting simple crawl counts of the olive ridleys nesting on the 16 kms of coastline that it covers in an attempt to determine how many turtles per year are nesting in the area. Using this crawl count data, as well as similar but limited historical data and also data gathered in the course of the management of its hatcheries, ARCAS is engaged in: 1) establishing baseline data and beginning to determine population trends among olive ridleys on this coast, 2) determining the economic value of the trade in sea turtle eggs in Guatemala in local and national contexts and 3) monitoring what percentage of eggs being laid on the beaches are actually being donated to local hatcheries and what percentage are being consumed. In following an active policy of sharing this information with government, NGOs and the local population ARCAS hopes to clearly establish the role of egg collection in local culture and economy and to guide future policy towards a balanced approach to both social and conservation needs.

This form of sex determination can generate a wide range of sex ratios. As a result, it is of ecological interest and conservational importance to monitor hatchling sex ratios produced in nesting beach conservation programs. The Kemp's Ridley Conservation program has historically relocated the majority of nests into protected "egg corrals" at the main nesting beach of the Kemp's ridley near Rancho Nuevo, Mexico. In more recent years, this program has examined the effect of leaving a subset of nests in situ on the natural nesting beach. In the current study incubation temperatures were monitored within egg corrals nests and also in nests that remained in situ on the natural nesting beach. The average incubation temperature during the middle third of incubation was used to predict sex ratios. In contrast to recent years, the 2004 nesting season was relatively cool. The results indicate that significantly more males were produced during 2004 in comparison to the previous six nesting seasons (1998-2003). This was consistent for both the corral nests as well as in situ nests. These findings exemplify the advantage of long-term studies when evaluating sex ratios in sea turtle populations. Further, these findings have significant implications for the ecology and conservation of the Kemp's ridley.

We propose that leatherbacks actively maintain their body temperature due to swimming activity while keeping thermal insulation constant. We consider a leatherback as a cylinder that loses heat produced by the metabolic cost of maintaining various swimming speeds. The cost of locomotion depends on body drag and the metabolic efficiency of conversion. Our model provides quantitative evidence that behavior is the major contributor to maintenance of body temperature in cold environments.

Scanning, with TROVAN LID500 PIT readers and tagging are done at all nesting stages. The main leatherback nesting beaches and spatio-temporal tagging effort varied among years.

The first postcard that I have found featuring a sea turtle taken by fishermen is an undated Undivided Back postcard (1901-1907), but this card is not directly attributable to the sea turtle fishery at Key West. The earliest postcards illustrating turtles on their way to slaughter at Key West's turtle kraals were Divided Back cards (1907-1915). Linen postcards were common from 1930-1945, followed by photochrome cards (1939-Present). Photochrome cards featuring the turtle kraals were popular especially in the 1950's. Occasionally, actual photographs served as postcards. More recently, sketches illustrating the historical/tourist nature of the kraals have appeared. In this poster, I present an array of 33 souvenir postcards and 2 decals dating from the early 1900's to the present that document the industry as it was to the tourist attraction it became. These postcards provide a vivid statement of how sea turtles were used as commodities, often for amusement, on their way to the soup kitchens. They also provide a glimpse into the species, size and sex of turtles captured and the sociology of the times.

This report focuses on six sea turtles (1 Kemp's ridley and 5 loggerheads) that presented with ophthalmic abnormalities ranging from mild to severe. We will discuss the management of these cases that demonstrate the variability of ophthalmic abnormalities and the successful treatments we employed. Three of the cases, which involved a corneal ulceration and two corneal perforations, were deemed releasable following non-invasive treatments. A fourth case, that presented with bilateral granulomatous conjunctivitis of parasitic origin, is currently undergoing treatment and will likely be releasable. The case of corneal ulceration resolved rapidly with topical medications. Treatment of the corneal perforations included topical medications accompanied by medicated baths, systemic anti-fungal agents and antibiotics. The case of granulomatous conjunctivitis is presently being treated with topical and systemic antibiotics. Two severe cases, a traumatically induced ventral deviation of an eye and skull fracture and a case of bilateral cataracts, required surgical intervention. The trauma case required surgical remodeling to streamline the skull profile. Post surgery, the turtle exhibited normal foraging behavior and normal vision in the deviated eye, precluding the need for ophthalmic surgery. In a case of functional blindness due to bilateral cataracts, cataract extraction by phacoemulsification was performed. This surgery restored vision and resulted in a releasable turtle. These case studies demonstrate the importance of thorough ophthalmic examinations for live stranded sea turtles.

The CPU Natural History Science Education Model employs the computer as its metaphor and the charismatic conservation of threatened and endangered sea turtles as its content. The model is adaptable to numerous natural history problems. Using hands-on, real-world, field experiences, science, mathematics and pedagogical content is presented as a two-semester science sequence through Georgia Southern University to 614 teachers/year. Teachers serve a seven-day residency on St. Catherine's Island after two days of face-to-face and at-a-distance training supported by a Handbook for Sea Turtle Interns and several content web sites. Teachers are trained in the field by lecture, demonstration and experiential activity, operate in the field as a conservation team and network with colleagues from their school or area within their cohort. Formal reinforcement is provided by a follow-up course in which the teachers integrate content into their teaching situation by writing an endangered species teaching unit tailored specifically to their students. Because each teacher teaches a new cohort of students each year, the teaching of teachers has a dramatic compounding effect. In 15 years our program has taught 135 teachers who have impacted 155,843 school children while resulting in documentation of 1,657 sea turtle nests and putting 93,816 hatchlings into the sea. Informal science education has been enhanced by delivery of 10 web sites, 5 museum exhibits, 16 papers and 38 presentations.

Marine turtle oils have been used individually and commercially as dietary supplements and in cosmetics and toiletries for medicinal or beautifying properties. Products containing oils from endangered marine turtles are prohibited by state, federal and international laws. While eggs, meat, shell and skin from marine turtles can be identified using DNA or isoelectric focusing procedures, oils generally have no DNA or protein and therefore cannot be characterized in the same manner. Forensic identification of unknown fats and oils involves a combination of analytical techniques to extract and purify the lipid fraction, separate the lipid classes present and determine lipid and fatty acid profiles for comparison with known standards. The procedures may vary for different sample matrices and are often complicated by the presence of other constituents that may also be soluble in organic solvents. Additionally, it is often difficult to obtain authentic standards for comparison due to the protected status of the animals of concern. In spite of these drawbacks, identifications based on lipid analysis are often the only option for oils suspected to have a marine turtle component and provide strong supporting evidence in wildlife law enforcement cases.

Like all species of sea turtle, the Kemp's ridley possesses temperature dependent sex determination. This form of sex determination introduces the potential of producing skewed sex ratios, which could affect the survival status of the species. As such, it is of ecological and conservational interest to examine hatchling sex ratios of Kemp's ridleys. For over 25 years, the majority of Kemp's ridley nests at the primary nesting beach near Rancho Nuevo, Mexico, have been moved to protected egg corrals. The purpose of the current study was to examine the sex ratios produced in nests that incubated in their natural location (in situ) on the primary nesting beach for the Kemp's ridley and compare those data to sex ratios produced in the egg corrals. Sex ratios were predicted based on the average incubation temperature during the middle third of incubation.

During regular nest survey work on these beaches, volunteers document dis- and misorientation events after adult or hatchling sea turtles orient toward beachfront lights and not the water. Volunteers record the date, the number of individual animals involved, any potential light sources and the ultimate fate of each animal, if known. Since 1987, approximately 8,700 disorientation events have been reported from beaches on Florida's Atlantic coast, the Gulf of Mexico and the Panhandle. The majority of events were attributed to taller parking lot or roadway lights. Lights from the interior of buildings also contributed to a number of disorientation events; and sky glow from urban areas was also a factor, although less so. Staff in the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) work with permitted volunteers on Florida's beaches and local governments to reduce documented lighting impacts where possible. To reduce the number of turtles lost immediately, volunteers must work directly with the nests, installing restraining cages over the nest and "sitting" by nests throughout the night, or placing opaque barriers on the landward side of the nest. To achieve a more effective, long term solution, these same individuals and others will also work with local governments on the adoption and implementation of ordinances to control beach front lighting.

AN - 20495635; 9188109 AB - Data were collected from a 7.2 km section of beach on southern Keewaydin Island, Florida. Some tag returns were also recorded from turtles that nested on the northern 4.8 km of the island. In all, 68 individual remigrant turtles laid 571 nests (mean 105 eggs/nest). The mean distance between nests for each nesting cycle of individual turtles was 2329 m while the mean distance between nests for all seasonal nesting cycles by individual turtles was 4198 m. Analysis of the clutch size of re-migrants on Keewaydin Island suggests that there is no significant correlation between mean clutch size and re-migration events. This suggests several analytical complications; the period of time covered by this monitoring project is too short and, since there is no ability to determine age or the state an individual's reproductive life, trends become even more difficult to detect Turtles may also constantly deposit large numbers of eggs throughout their reproductive lives, particularly since the rigors of migration from foraging areas likely select for only the healthiest females. Anthropogenic impacts such as drift nets and long-line fisheries on nesting populations may also impact population structure.

The olive ridley nesting season for the year 2003-2004 was witness to much volatility, involving conflicts between fisherfolk, departments of the Government and conservationists over the choice of sea turtle protection measures for the State. The paper outlines the events responsible for the conflicts and the range of perspectives stakeholders in Orissa currently hold on turtle conservation measures. Emerging from this scenario was the urgent need to set in place mechanisms for conflict resolution and build partnerships among stakeholders for building and strengthening conservation initiatives. Coinciding with the new season of 2004-2005, turtle biologists, researchers and those concerned with the stalemate are making an attempt at conciliation. The paper provides a description of the ongoing efforts towards this. In particular, the processes associated with the formation of a state level consortium - the Orissa Ridley Conservation Consortium are described. The Consortium aims at evolving a common understanding among stakeholders on sea turtle conservation and working towards its implementation.

This legislation, the culmination of three years of work, is a triumph for sea turtle conservation efforts around the globe. The MTCA has great potential for advancing global sea turtle conservation efforts by supporting projects to protect and manage nesting populations, nesting habitats and addressing other threats through research, monitoring, law enforcement, community outreach, education and capacity building. The focus of the law is to support efforts on nesting beaches. The bill establishes a fund to be administered by the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, Office of International Conservation and authorizes up to $5,000,000 annually. Based on appropriations experience with other similar multi-species funds, it is anticipated that initial funding may be around $1.5 million but Congressional appropriations could increase substantially each year if there is widespread support from sea turtle conservationists, foreign governments and non-governmental organizations. Eligible applicants include wildlife management authorities of foreign countries as well as any other person or group with demonstrated expertise in sea turtle conservation. Information about grant guidelines and other program information can be found at the USFWS website: www.fws.gov. The text of the MTCA (Public Law 108-266) can be found at http://Thomas.loc.gov.

Parks with no beachfront lights record adult aversion and hatchlevg Disorientations In 2004 AN - 20495616; 9188135 AB - During the 2004 nesting season in Boca Raton, female sea turtles avoided a City park area (South Beach Park) that contained no lighting. This park area has a low profile dune that appears flat when viewed from the ocean looking west whereas other City Parks have a high dune profile and tall Australian pine trees. Sea turtle crawls in the South Beach Park area decreased from a ten-year average of 0.074 crawls per foot (C/F) to an all time low of 0.022 C/F in 2004. When Mobile GIS pinpointed crawl locations, sea turtle crawls were visualized as predominant in front of condominiums and City Parks with high dunes and/or Australian pine trees. The loss of sea turtle nesting activity in South Beach Park can only be explained by the presence of City Glow, as that is the only light source in the area. Because the area was renourished in 2004 it is important to demonstrate that city glow, not renourishment is responsible for the lack of nesting. Although not measured, the intensity of the city glow does not appear to have increased based on photography taken during lighting surveys. In the past year, the City has installed metal halide street lighting fixtures and many businesses and residences are replacing high pressure sodium fixtures with metal halide or halogen fixtures. The increased use of these "daylight" fixtures may be actually reducing the wavelength of the city glow so the glow is becoming more visible to nesting female sea turtles and their hatchlings. City glow disorientations now appear to have more impact on sea turtle nesting and hatchlin disorientations in Boca Raton. Sea turtle nesting data was collected according to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission's (FWC) Guidelines. Each crawl in the Boca Raton City limits was recorded using an HP Compaq Ipaq 3850 hand-held computer fitted with a Compactflash GPS receiver. The hand-held computer utilized ArcPad 6.0.3 Mobile GIS software (ESRI. Inc., WWW.ESRI.com). Sea turtle crawl data was evaluated with ArcView 3.2 and ArcGis 9.0 software (ESRI, Inc.) on desktop computers. Beach photography was standardized by using Kodak Gold 400 print film in a 35 mm camera fitted with a 24 mm f/2.8 lens. The film was exposed for 1 second at f/2.8.

The network used data from studies in over 37 countries and territories from the Caribbean to key locations of Asia and Africa such as Vietnam, Indonesia and Tanzania. TRAFFIC'S marine turtle related work has also involved collaboration with governments and enforcement agencies through information sharing and technical assistance, with recent focus on the Caribbean, Vietnam, Japan, Indonesia, Indochina, East Africa and Oceania, as well as multilateral instruments such as CITES, the IAC, or IOSEA. Reports from this work have been made available to and used as strategic tools by different key actors including decision makers and managers. TRAFFIC feels that making this information known and available to a broader spectrum of institutions, researchers and conservationists is key so it may be considered and used for ongoing and future projects globally. Findings so far have helped TRAFFIC identify gaps and needs and set sound baselines for our ongoing and planned work, aimed at addressing critical problems such as insufficient or inefficient regulation governing trade and use of marine turtle products, stockpile management and lack of regional cooperation in monitoring and enforcement. The ISTS offers the ideal forum to present an overview of our projects, research, reports and plans; provide links to available materials as well as contact information of TRAFFIC staff working on these issues; encourage communication; and create synergies where possible towards effective management and conservation of marine turtles.

As elsewhere in Florida, beachfront communities can have a tremendous impact on the success or failure of sea turtle nesting. To increase awareness, interest and protection of sea turtles, a new program NESTS-Neighbors Ensuring Sea Turtle Survival, was developed to work with coastal homeowners associations and individual homeowners living on Florida's barrier islands. Program partners include Walt Disney World, The Ocean Conservancy, Caribbean Conservation Corporation, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Friends of the Carr Refuge, Brevard Zoo, Sea Turtle Preservation Society and the Florida Park Service. The concept of NESTS is to engage individuals living in coastal areas in simple activities that will have a direct benefit to helping the survival of sea turtles and protecting their nesting habitat. Through three levels of certification (Partner, Guardian and Champion) participants have the opportunity to become directly involved, as well as engaging others in their community, through completing activities that protect sea turtles and their habitat. The first year of our program has been successful and generated considerable interest and community support. Our hope is that NESTS will continue to grow to include additional communities that will positively impact the conservation of sea turtles and their habitat. www.nests-certified.org.

Recently, in an attempt to better incorporate and capture complexity of species life history, stochastic simulation models have also been developed, including stochastic projection models (Chaloupka, 2002), simulation modelling approaches (Chaloupka, 2003) and individual based models (IBM) (Mazaris et al., in press). The knowledge about the possible effect of a density-dependent somatic growth in the age of first breeding and reproduction cycles is still scarce. In a recent study Bjorndal et al. (2001) recognized the existence of a density-dependent growth on immature green turtles in the southern Bahamas. However, the effect of this mechanism upon population dynamics has received little attention.

At Querepare Beach (6252'W, 1042'N) preliminary surveys were made April 18-20 and the biologists were finally established by April 28th. Female leatherback turtles (Dermochelys coriacea) were double-tagged with metallic tags in the left fore-flipper and AVID PIT tags in the right shoulder; the Cheloniidae species only received a metallic tag. Pictures were taken of the pink spot on the head of each leatherback. Curved carapace measurements (SCL and CW) were recorded, in addition to the general condition and the presence of tag scars. Daily surveys were made to estimate the total number of reproductive events and related information. Most nests were relocated to protected hatcheries to avoid poaching. The number of released hatchlings was recorded. The activities finished by September 6th in Querepare Beach and September 9th at Cipara Beach.

The Program's collaborative approach has proven to be a successful model for replacing, revitalizing and repairing key environments and vital resources nationwide. Sea turtles are a NOAA trust resource and have been protected under the Endangered Species Act. The six species found in the United States (green, hawksbill, Kemp's ridley, loggerhead, leatherback and olive ridley) require a variety of habitats for survival, such as sand beaches, sea grass beds and coral reefs. Restoration of sea turtle habitats can be achieved by removing non-native beach vegetation, planting native beach vegetation, removing hardened shorelines, re-establishing dune systems, eliminating marine debris and a variety of other methods. Since the Program's inception in 1996 it has funded over 850 restoration projects, some of which have benefited sea turtle species. NOAA's CRP serves an important role in facilitating restoration and conservation of sea turtle habitat by supporting local habitat restoration efforts through grants and partnerships. Community-based organizations such as local governments, non-profit organizations and academic institutions submit project proposals to the Restoration Center or to one of its numerous partners several times each year. Proposals undergo a competitive review and projects are selected based on their technical merit, ecological benefits to marine species and their habitats, cost-effectiveness and the level of community involvement and partnership opportunities. In 2003, $10 million was available to support community-based habitat restoration projects and partnerships.

Oftentimes tortoise shell is replicated by using plastic products such as celluloid, cellulose acetate, casein and bakelite. Several analysis methods can be used to differentiate these substances: microscope, short and long UV luminescence, refractive index, the "hot point" (destruction test). Under the microscope, tortoise shell reveals a characteristic coloration with light yellow-brown areas and typical dark brown spots with a fleecy appearance. Plastic imitations, on the other hand exhibit very uniform brown spots or zones that vary from yellow to dark brown. The measurement of the density and the refractive index are not significant enough to differentiate the nature of the material. By applying the heated point of a needle to the object, a characteristic odour emanates from the product: an acrylic odour when the material is bakelite, the smell of burnt milk if the product is casein, the odour of camphor is the product is made of celluloid and that of vinegar if the product is made of cellulose acetate. Genuine tortoise shell however gives off an odour of burnt hair. Imitations of tortoise shell display spectrums that are clearly diverse and with less continuous curves. The microscope is the simplest technique to rapidly differentiate between genuine tortoise shell and its imitations.

Among the several programs operated by CEA, is the Marine Turtle Program, which works on the protection, conservation and research of marine turtles. Since 1993, this program has carried out efforts to protect nesting turtles and hatchlings under the Ministry of the Environment permit number CONV-DGVS/CPCTM-038-QROO-001. This includes managing the beaches of Half Moon, Akumal bay, Beach Jade and south Akumal. The objective of the current project is to present results from 10 years of marine turtle protection, along with a comparative study of past seasons with the 2004 season. There was a drastic decline of the green turtle nesting population during the 2004 season. Statistical analysis from past seasons shows a constant increase in the number of nesting females, but this year, preliminary results demonstrate an absence of a large number of green turtles. Therefore, it has become a priority to study external factors on turtle populations which may present a risk to the conservation of the species and in this way increase efforts in evaluating environmental impacts on populations.

On average, approximately 40,000 females breed annually on this 1.8 km nesting beach in remote north Queensland. The population is characterized by a declining size of the annual nesting population, reducing size of the breeding females, extremely poor nesting success, reduced number of clutches per season and high egg mortality. The poor nesting success, reduced number of clutches per season and high egg mortality are the result of environmental parameters at the island. This nesting population migrates from dispersed foraging areas with a 2,500 km radius. Over recent decades, this stock has been subjected to a regular substantial harvest of principally large females over an extended part of its foraging range in northern Australia, eastern Indonesia and southern Papua, New Guinea. Under current environmental conditions and management practices, this very large C. mydas population is on track for a significant population decline within the next few decades (in less than one generation). This decline also threatens the continuity of culturally significant linkages between indigenous coastal communities and green turtles in Torres Strait, northern Australia and southern New Guinea.

All species are threatened and populations are believed to be declining as a result of escalating pressures associated with a poor and growing coastal population who are heavily dependent on coastal and marine resources for their livelihoods. The major threats to turtles include over-exploitation for meat, eggs and shells, incidental capture in artisanal gillnets and commercial prawn trawlers and disturbance of nesting and foraging habitats. Before 2000, turtle research and conservation efforts in Tanzania were focused almost exclusively on the Zanibar islands of Unguja and Pemba, while knowledge of nesting populations and feeding and developmental habitats on the mainland coast were virtually non-existent. In recognition of their plight, scanty data and the needs of local coastal communities, a community-based Tanzania Turtle & Dugong Conservation Programme (TTDCP) was initiated in January 2001 on Mafia Island, part of the mainland. Through a network of local community monitors, nest incentives, monitoring, education and training, poaching of turtles and their eggs has declined significantly from 49% to less than 1%. Over 550 nests have been recorded, tagging and catch monitoring are underway and schools and communities are actively participating in environmental education activities.

Disruption occurs because artificial light sources show greater "directivity" (contrast with background) and often contain spectra that are especially attractive to the turtles. In Florida alone, lighting kills thousands of hatchlings annually. Can luminaries be designed that are less attractive? We used a T-maze to determine how strongly the turtles were attracted to six "turtle friendly" luminaries (magnaray fluorescent, bug light, standard red, Beeman red, H&H Twistee and Filtered HPS) compared to a HPS light that is strongly attractive. Intensity was eliminated as a variable so that responses were based upon spectral composition. All of the lights were less attractive to loggerhead hatchlings than the HPS. Luminaries that emitted the longest wavelengths were the least attractive. The Beeman Red was the least attractive luminaire, either when presented alone or when paired with other lights.

This program includes the translocation of most nests to "egg corrals" in order to protect the nests from poaching and predators. Moving the nests to egg corrals places these nests into the same thermal environment and Kemp's ridleys have been shown to have temperature-dependent sex determination. Therefore, it is important to monitor sex ratios. Over the past few years, incubation temperatures have been monitored in a subset of nests in the egg corrals during each nesting season and those data suggest an overall female-biased sex ratio. In the current study, an alternative method was used to determine the sex of hatchlings from Kemp's ridley nests. Histological analysis of gonadal tissue was used to determine the sex of hatchlings that were found dead in nests during the 2003 nesting season. This included nests from the egg corrals as well as from in situ nests left in their original location on the natural nesting beach. One to six dead hatchlings were collected from 63 nests which were laid throughout the 2003 nesting season. Gonadal tissue was examined histologically to determine sex. The results were consistent with those of the temperature data, indicating that a significant female bias was produced in both the egg corrals and in the in situ nests during the 2003 nesting season.

As such, Zoomarine's involvement in the rehabilitation of sea turtles started shortly after the opening of the park in 1991. Considering the above, our technical team always had first-hand contact with the negative impact of human activities on these species. Being strongly aware of the importance of an effective educational strategy, our technicians have been trying, ever since, to effectively teach our visitors about the major threats that these taxa undergo during their life, as well as trying to involve the public in conservation efforts. Zoomarine's Educational Department has been a fundamental partner in this effort, as it dedicates an important part of its resources to actively showing our visitors the importance that small changes in their daily activities (their attitudes) can have a relevant impact in the life of (among others) these marine reptiles. Either by direct contact with the general public, visiting schools and/or universities, or through close cooperation with local and national media, we have been "opening" every year, the sea turtles' fragile world to hundreds of thousands, showing the importance and urgent need of protecting these amazing and ancient creatures.

Since the establishment of the first hatchery in 1971, the number of hatcheries in the country has fluctuated annually between 16 and 24. These hatcheries necessarily have a community focus based on the fact that the majority of the eggs collected are the result of voluntary donations on the part of local egg collectors. Hatcheries are typically managed by local personnel who lack formal scientific training. The performance of the hatcheries, in terms of eggs collected per kilometer of beach and hatchling success, varies substantially. NGOs ARCAS and AMBIOS have collaborated to study the adequacy of current sea turtle hatchery management in Guatemala. The first (two year) phase of this project has focused on developing simple, sustainable, yet effective methodologies for monitoring controlling factors (climate, geography, infrastructure, management practices), micro-climate within hatchery nests (temperature and humidity) and hatchling success. The second phase involves an outreach programme to encourage sustainable development and capacity building at other hatcheries in the country and where necessary the development of new hatcheries. This programme will involve collaboration with other Guatemalan NGOs within the overall guidance of the government's National Council of Protected Areas (CONAP) and financial support provided through a system of international volunteers.

AN - 20495471; 9188183 AB - Fisheries are a major threat for sea turtle populations all over the world. Pacific populations of leatherback (Dermochelys coriacea) and loggerhead (Caretta caretta) turtles have declined drastically during the last decade. One of the major reasons for this fact is the incidental capture of sea turtles by fisheries. Research efforts are being conducted to modify fishing gear and operations; bycatch assessments are being made to determine spatial and temporal fishing bans. The results of these processes might take years to reduce the sea turtle bycatch and mortality. Considering the critical situation of sea turtle populations, we can not wait to see those results. Fishermen, who work on the deck of fishing boats, have the opportunity to decide the fate of incidentally captured sea turtles. They have inherited an empirical knowledge from generations of work, which is very valuable to research and the conservation of sea turtles. Most of them are willing to help sea turtles and to work with conservationists to avoid their extinction. This is why we strongly believe that fishermen have a vital role to play in sea turtle conservation programs. We have to increase sea turtle conservation awareness in fishermen by developing educational programs and integrating them into conservation and research activities. Every sea turtle which is rescued from any fishing gear by an aware fisherman today will help them avoid extinction.

I reviewed the history and successes of the University of Florida - University of the Azores collaboration on the biology of the oceanic-juvenile stage of Atlantic loggerheads. Results are presented from analyses of population genetics, growth rates, duration of the oceanic stage, survival probability estimates and diving behavior and movements from satellite telemetry. Longitudinal growth analyses based on skeletochronology are reviewed. Trophic analyses using stable isotopes are also discussed. Longline bycatch is the most significant threat to this life stage and results from experiments to reduce bycatch are presented. Future research directions that focus on gaps in our knowledge of this life stage are presented, including the role of oceanic-juvenile loggerheads in the oceanic ecosystem and development of survey methods to monitor population abundance and trends.

Boavista is the eastern most island and may constitute the most important nesting area for the loggerhead turtle in the archipelago. The studies conducted from 1998 to 2004 indicate that Cape Verde might account for one of the most important loggerheads populations in the eastern Atlantic. The nesting females in Boavista were surveyed during the 2004 season, in order to (1) know the health status of the population (2) determine the effects of physical anomalies on nesting behaviour and (3) determine the possible origin of the injuries observed. A random survey of this nesting population was carried out to search for the cause of different lesions or injuries on the carapace and flippers and to check for the presence of fibropapilloma. A sample of 688 different turtles were included in the analysis. About 34.5% of the turtles surveyed showed some kind of external lesion, like fractures in carapace, tears, partial or total amputations, deformities, injuries and others. This value could increase approximately 20% if tears caused by tag loss in the trailing edge of both fore flippers were also included. We may conclude that lesions were, in general, light and occurred more frequently in the flippers. With respect to the nesting success, we observed that the occurrence of determinated lesions could reduce the nesting success. Related to the natural or anthropogenic-origin of the lesions, it is important to remark that none of these turtles showed clear evidence of either damages caused by interactions with fisheries or boat traffic. Interactions with the environment and predators may also inflict marine turtles with a different set of lesions. We have observed that 23% of our injured turtles showed signs of shark attack. It is interesting to confirm that the nesting colony of Caretta caretta in Boavista have not shown fibropapilloma-like lesions.

The vision of the programme is; "We see a future where generations of Pacific Island people will have choices about how they use and interact with sea turtles. This dream will come true if we take action now to ensure that sea turtle populations recover to become healthy, robust and stable. Sea turtles will be fulfilling their ecological role and being harvested by Pacific Island people on a sustainable basis to meet their cultural and nutritional needs." In order to enable this vision the programme coordinates the activities of a network of governments, NGOs and local communities through the RMTCP Network to enable them to work together to promote conservation and sustainable management of marine turtles in the Pacific. As well as coordinating the network, activities include: exchange of information and technical expertise within the network, in-country support for turtle conservation and sustainable use initiatives, producing and disseminating resource materials to member countries and monitoring and reviewing progress every three to four years. Some examples of the RMTCP Network programmes that are on-going in the Pacific region are the Kamiali Leatherback Tagging and Monitoring Programme in Papua New Guinea and the Vanua-tai Monitors Community-based Turtle Conservation Programme.

Increased understanding of this role might serve to improve management of these animals. For this purpose, as well as to better understand the evolution of olfactory receptor genes in vertebrates, we investigated the sea turtle olfactory receptor gene family. For turtles odors might be important for locating feeding sites, nesting beaches and in social/ mating interactions. Odorants are detected in the olfactory system by odor receptors (ORs) embedded in nasal tissue. OR genes code for these receptors. The structure of OR genes is highly conserved from fish to humans and have no introns, making them excellent candidates for a non-invasive molecular investigation of olfaction. Blood was obtained from three species of sea turtle and two species each of freshwater and terrestrial turtles for comparison. DNA was isolated, olfactory genes were cloned and sequenced and comparisons were made between turtle sequences and known fish and mammal sequences. Results show two OR genes that are highly conserved across the three sea turtle species and an increased number of pseudogenes (presumed unexpressed) in the sea and freshwater turtles. An allelic variation study was then conducted using several of the turtle OR genes found. A comparison between loggerheads from the Mediterranean Sea and Pacific, Atlantic and Indian Oceans was made and a very high degree of gene conservation was seen across populations. These allelic variation studies are being continued in leatherback and green sea turtles.

The floater syndrome is characterized by a loss of neutral buoyancy and depth control. Animals with this syndrome typically become fatigued and then stranded by tidal and wave actions that they cannot escape by diving. Proposed etiologies include gut air volume disorders, ruptured lung alveoli and resultant intracoelomic air disorders, decreased body mass to lung volume ratio and cold-stunning. Three loggerhead sea turtles were treated for their persistent floating condition by the intracoelomic administration of large volumes of sterile fluids after intracoelomic endoscopic exam. An equal mixture of lactated ringer's and isotonic saline solution with amikacin (5mg/kg) displaced all gas present in the coelom. Pressure was applied to the plastron during closure of the endoscopy entry (and fluid administration) site to evacuate all gas. Maximal removal of gas was confirmed by observing a small amount of fluid ejected from the incision site just before final surgical closure was achieved. All three turtles were released back into the environment. In all three cases, correction of the primary etiology was required before administration of intracoelomic fluids could correct the floating disorder. It is felt that without the addition of the fluids, full recoveries and releases would have been significantly delayed. Ancillary treatment with intracoelomic fluids could play a significant role in a standardized treatment plan for "floater syndrome" in all sea turtles with this frustrating syndrome.

Careful release protocols synthesizing the use of these gear removal devices and methods evolved from scientific research conducted in the western Atlantic Ocean in 2001-2003. The goals of the research were to develop methods to reduce post-hooking mortality by safely removing as much gear as possible and to investigate various hook and bait combinations in an effort to reduce incidental sea turtle capture. The benefits of removing gear from animals before release have been clearly demonstrated in reducing mortality and the techniques outlined in these protocols have proven highly effective in gear removal.

Data have now been collected over two nesting seasons. Here natural nests are extremely rare because of the prevalence of egg poaching for commercial purposes. Our data identify shading and rainfall as critical factors that lower temperatures to the levels required for successful hatching. The data, surprisingly, are showing that natural beach nests are not generally viable due to excessive temperatures. This may be a natural situation, with nests only being viable during chance periods when there is sufficient precipitation, or anthropogenic influences may be playing a role (eg. climate change or modification of over-storey vegetation at the natural nest sites). Our studies are long-term and we hope to reveal more about the underlying causes. It may be that a local economy based on egg sales and turtle conservation can be mutually supportive through a programme of effective hatchery operation. A related observation that we are investigating is that the few prolific 'arribada' sites of the region (in Mexico, Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Panama) appear to coincide exactly with the cordillera-gaps of the Central American isthmus, which allow penetration of Caribbean trade winds to the Pacific coast. It is possible that increased rainfall and cloud-cover, or decreased sea temperatures (resulting from upwelling caused by local offshore winds) are reducing nest temperatures in these areas and enhancing population viability.

Five costal states are involved (Senegal, Cap Vert, Mauritania, Gambia, Guinee Bissau and Guinee Conakry). This ecoregion is biologically very rich in marine animal life and is characterized by: (1) zones of world importance for sea turtle nesting (green turtle and loggerhead); (2) significant sea turtle feeding and developmental areas; and (3) the convergence of significant migration corridors, particularly for loggerheads, green turtles and leatherbacks. However, in spite of the richness of the region the marine turtles of the area are in danger of extinction due to the destruction of breeding areas and the capture of individuals for consumption and traditional uses by the local population. Since 2002 a vast conservation plan for the marine turtles of the area was initiated by WWF, UICN and the FIBA in accordance with the agreement for conservation of marine turtles of the Atlantic coast in Africa (CMS, Abidjan 1999) encouraging the installation of regional programs. The major objective of this plan is to improve the state of conservation of the marine turtles of the Atlantic coast of Africa. Since its launching, several activities have been undertaken or are underway, including following turtle migration patterns, raising awareness among fishermen and reinforcing the capacities of the conservation actors in the field (NGOs and official organizations qualified on these issues). The activities of this plan are planned for five years (2002-2007).

For example, Bell and Richardson (1978) reported that 51% of tagged loggerhead turtles returned to within 16.6 km of their original nesting site on Little Cumberland Island. However, most tagging studies are limited in spatial scale (5-15 km) and often provide an incomplete picture of nesting habitat use. An alternative method for assessing loggerhead nesting site fidelity is to monitor the movements of nesting females with satellite telemetry. During the spring of 2004, we examined nesting site fidelity of loggerhead turtles in Georgia using satellite telemetry. We instrumented 10 nesting females with satellite and acoustic transmitters from May 25 through July 8 on Cumberland and Jekyll Islands. Movements of instrumented turtles were monitored throughout the intra-nesting period and nesting events were recorded. Nesting site fidelity varied among individuals. Nesting females used an average of 26 linear km of beach for nesting with a range of 4.2 to 87.7 km. There was no correlation between female carapace length and the length of nesting beach utilized.

Predation is assumed to be highest nearshore, but few studies have supported this. Gyuris (1994) found 0-85% predation rates (mean = 31%) on Chelonia mydas hatchlings as they migrated over a reef crest and into deep water at Heron Island, Australia. Stewart and Wyneken (2004) found a 5% predation rate off a high-density loggerhead (Caretta caretta) nesting beach in Florida, USA. Our study quantifies and compares nearshore predation rates on loggerhead hatchlings at several locations in Florida to determine if there are spatial or temporal differences in predation. Observers in kayaks followed hatchlings during the first 15 min of migration at three sites: Boca Raton (N2622'01.5" W08004'04.6") and Hutchinson Island (N2720'18.6" W0813'59.4") on the east coast and Naples (N2606'31.5" W08148'11.3") on the west coast. Each site was sampled three times across the hatching season; early, middle and late sub-seasonal categories (based on densities of hatchling emergences) were compared. Thirty hatchlings were sampled each sub-season (n = 90 hatchlings/location). Hatchlings were followed individually as they swam away from the beach, each towing a Witherington float on a 2 m tether from which we could site the turtles. This method was previously used successfully to track hatchlings (Wyneken and Salmon 1997, Stewart and Wyneken 2004). No predation was observed at any sampling site during the early sub-season. Boca Raton was the only beach where predation changed temporally (Fisher exact test, p = 0.012), with higher predation (20%) during late sub-season. Wyneken and Salmon (1997) noted predator assemblages changed throughout the hatching season. Such shifts may explain the sharp increase in predation from the early to the late sub-season in Boca Raton. Due to hurricane damage to Hutchinson Island beaches, no data were collected during the late sub-season there. We found an overall predation rate of 4.6%; it did not differ significantly from Stewart and Wyneken's 5% predation rate; however, specific beaches differed in predation risk. The two east coast sites had similar predation rates; predation was higher on the east coast than on the west coast. Predation for the entire sampling period differed significantly between Boca Raton and Naples (Boca Raton: 8.9%, Naples: 1.1%; j super(2) =5.731; p = 0.017). These differences may be due to alternative patterns of predator movement, different fish and macro invertebrate assemblages and/or different physical and environmental conditions. Our results suggest that currently, hatchling mortality rates are low in shallow nearshore waters off Florida's coastline. Rates at later life history staees mav be verv different.

Within the past century, humans have modified the beach by reducing the amount of native vegetation and introducing non-natives species. These anthropogenic alterations coupled with the periodic occurrence of hurricanes have significantly reduced the availability of maritime forest for nesting habitat. Depletion of intact maritime forest has contributed to habitat loss through coastal erosion further complicating the turtles' ability to readily locate an adequate nesting site. Vegetation islands have been designed as an instrumental conservation measure to return critical native flora and preserve existing forest structure that is essential to nesting success. The islands have also been created as a tool to integrate and reconcile critical habitat needs of the hawksbill with human economic and developmental needs. This strategy and art of establishing and maintaining new habitats in the face of human enterprise, to essentially 'reconcile' human land use with that of another species, is an efficient and harmonious approach to conservation challenges. The primary focus of this study was to examine the use of created nesting habitat by hawksbills on Pasture Bay beach and to quantify the changes in available beach structure through time by comparing aerial photos and analyzing changes in nesting and false crawl distribution. Our comparison of the 1984 and 2004 aerial photographs of Pasture Bay revealed a dramatic visual decrease in forest cover. Additionally, the distribution of false crawls along the beach significantly decreased and the percentage of nests increased in the restored area after construction of the vegetation islands. Results will be elaborated in a manuscript currently in preparation. From these results, the message is clear: these vegetation islands are providing hawksbill nesting habitat and appear to be compensating for that role of the native forest that preceded them. An understanding of how we can maintain successful nesting habitat within human enterprise and reconcile our needs with those of wild, native species will aid in the formulation of effective conservation management tools both on Pasture Bay and other Caribbean hawksbill nesting beaches.

It is one of the largest unspoilt islands in the Caribbean and is under extreme development pressure. It hosts a globally important coral reef system and is a regionally important area for nesting and foraging sea turtles. Hawksbill (Eretmochelys imbricata), green (Chelonia mydas) and leatherback (Dermochelys coriacea), turtles are known to nest on Anegada but the knowledge relating to the status and ecology of these populations is lacking. Here we provide an overview of a multidisciplinary project which, in addition to monitoring marine turtle nesting and foraging populations, will also assess the status of birds and plants integrated within an extensive campaign to raise environmental awareness, promote community participation and contribute to institutional strengthening.

In 1996, the Philippine and Malaysian governments established the Turtle Islands Heritage Protected Area (TIHPA), the world's first trans-frontier protected area for marine turtles. Recognising that turtle egg collection was a traditional source of livelihood for communities in the Philippine Turtle Islands, a formal system of regulation was set up by the Philippine government in the 1980s which allowed 60% of eggs to be harvested and 40% set aside for conservation. However, in 2001 the Philippine Congress enacted the Wildlife Conservation Act, which prohibited harvest of endangered wildlife. Under this law, turtle egg collection is banned and sustainable use outlawed. Upon its enactment the local government of the Turtle Islands and the community vehemently reacted, citing lack of consultations, alternatives and social preparation. This eventually led to non-compliance to the new law and eventual collapse of the permit and turtle egg allocation systems. The application of the law effectively undermined not just a system acceptable to all major stakeholders but a working system that was actually able to curb the decline of the nesting population in the area. This paper presents the social dynamics in the Turtle Islands and the processes that led to breakdown in management and the steps undertaken to resolve these conflicts. It also highlights the importance of resource agreements, monitoring and the lessons learned in implementing conservation programs with local communities.

For this reason, there is a latent possibility of allowed exploitation of this particular rookery. This emphasizes the necessity of research that can provide a scientific basis for management plans. In this sense advances in molecular genetics have provided tools that help the conservation of biological resources. With the objective to identify molecular markers useful for the study of olive ridley mating systems, the nuclear microsatellite loci Cm72, Cm84, Cc117, Ei8, LB107, LB121, LB142 and LB143 were analyzed in the Escobilla rookery using polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The variation found in these loci ranged from monomorphism (LB121 and LB142) to high polymorphism (e.g., Ei8 with 29 alleles and an observed heterozygosity of 0.96). With regards to the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium test (P = 0.05), LB143 showed deviations while Cm72, Cm84 and Ei8 were within expectations. There was no evidence of linkage disequilibrium (P = 0.05) between the latter group of loci. The analysis of their usefulness for paternity testing indicated that Cm72 is barely informative, whereas Cm84 and Ei8 together provide a high probability of detecting multiple paternity (D = 0.98).

Since 2000 more than 100 trawling boats and ten boulers have caught almost 1500 sea turtles; around 20% of the animals needed surgery and their convalescence was between 2 and 60 days. We analysed the relationship between fishing and rescue activities and what kind of advantage sea turtles can gain from such a collaboration in the Mediterranean Sea. Captured sea turtles have a lot of problems: first, being caught, but once on board, for them it is a real struggle to survive. The cold temperature, loss of seawater, injuries and fright reduce their ability to survive. Some die. Travel conditions are poor and unnatural. Few boats accept or realize the need for tanks or special places for turtles; often onboard space is insufficient and the men are totally crushed by tasks, but it is only with a collaboration with fishermen, who live on the sea 27 days/month, that we can pick up data to help turtle conservation.

In Virginia it is well established that sea turtle strandings increase as Chesapeake Bay surface water temperature (CBSWT) rises in the spring. Strandings begin when CBSWT approaches 16.5 C and peaks when CBSWT is approximately 21 C. In the past four years ESVA strandings ranged from 72 to 191 in 2002 and 2003, respectively. The date of first stranding varied from May 1 in 2002 to May 25 in 2003. The peak in strandings occurred during the first week of June in 2001, 2002 and 2004 but did not peak until the third week of June in 2003. In high stranding years (2001 n=163, 2003 n=191), more turtles were reported on the Chesapeake Bay side of ESVA. Conversely, when strandings were lower (2002 n=72, 2004 n=91) more strandings were reported on the ESVA ocean side. These differences in stranding number and distribution could be related to fishery interactions, turtle health and/or environmental factors. We found no correlation between annual CBSWT and ESVA stranding number; however, the timing of strandings did appear to be related to CBSWT. In 2003, when CBSWT increased slowly, strandings started and peaked approximately three weeks later than other years. Future research will focus on subsurface water temperatures and other environmental and health factors.

The present study was conducted inside the protected area of Camp "La Gloria" (Sanctuary Playon de Mismaloya, Jal. M6x.). The hatchings from 2001-2003 was analyzed. Two variables were included: the incubation area perpendicular to the beach (spatial) and time in the season (temporal). The number of hatchlings were compared weekly. Analyses of variance (ANOVA) was done to determine if there existed significant differences in spatial and temporal effects. The analysis indicates that the first three weeks had the lowest hatching rates, while the rest of the season had more homogeneous behavior. The most hatchlings survived in 2003, while 2001 and 2002 had similar survival rates. The location of the nest within the hatchery also had some effect on the hatching rates. An ANOVA and Tukey test indicates that zone A is not different from either B or C, but Zones B and C are different from each other.

Four main criteria are used to distinguish lekking species: (i) males make no parental investment besides gametes, (ii) males form aggregations which females visit and where most mating occurs, (iii) males (or their gametes) are the only useful resources available to females at the lek area and (iv) females choose their mate(s), although the importance of this criteria for a lekking species is debated. Lek formation is most common among birds and has not yet been reported in any aquatic turtle species. However, the estuarine turtle, Malaclemys terrapin, the diamondback terrapin, has been observed forming mating aggregations that seem to fit the criteria of a turtle lek. We documented one such mating aggregation in Charleston Harbor, South Carolina using visual surveys, mark-recapture and automated sonic tracking of individuals and mounted pairs in the aggregation area. This aggregation appears to fit the main criteria of a turtle lek. The aggregation area does not appear to contain useful resources, such as food. Like marine iguanas, which lek, male terrapins were sighted at the aggregation site before females and females left the aggregation first, presumably to nest. Previously documented behavior of olive ridley, green and loggerhead turtles in courtship/mating areas shows similarities to that of terrapins. Comparisons are made between the mating behaviors of these aquatic reptile species, to explore the idea that turtles may form leks.

Measures to promote the reestablishment of the swordfish fishery in the Pacific have been identified following four years of experimental and collaborative research in the Atlantic. These new regulatory measures have helped to establish a "model" shallow-set swordfish fishery using circle hooks with mackerel bait and a limited number of sets (2,120 sets or 50% of the 1994-1999 annual average). As an additional safeguard, a 'hard' limit on the number of leatherback (16) and loggerhead (17) turtles that could be taken by the swordfish fishery has been implemented which results in immediate closure if the limit is reached. The Council strategy recognizes that turtle population recovery is contingent on mitigating threats across the full spectrum of a turtle's life history. Consequently, a number of conservation projects at nesting beaches and coastal foraging habitats have also been implemented in Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, Japan and Baja California, Mexico. This approach, which melds both fishery mitigation and conservation activities at nesting and foraging grounds, will be shared with the major international longline fishing nations (Japan, Taiwan, China and others) during the third International Fishers Forum in Japan in 2005.

Croix leatherbacks? AN - 20495224; 9188032 AB - Sandy Point National Wildlife Refuge (SPNWR), St. Croix, USVI is the site of the largest leatherback (Dermochelys coriacea) rookery in the U.S. and its surrounding territories. This rookery has been monitored for over twenty years and is the site of a growing leatherback population. As a result of this project, SPNWR has accumulated one of the most extensive databases on nesting leatherbacks in the Atlantic Ocean. A subsample of 40 individual females, 20 neophytes and 20 remigrants, were selected based on certain criteria. Turtles were chosen if they nested consistently (9-10 days) (Pritchard, 1971; Tock, 1988) without skipping any intervals and if every nest location was known for excavation. Data utilized for this study included nest location, clutch size and hatchling and emergence success. The objective of this study was to better understand nesting production in this population. To accomplish this we looked at the potential role experience plays in hatchling production. Production was defined as the total number of hatchlings to successfully emerge to the beach surface. The impact of experience on production was determined by comparing clutch sizes, number of clutches laid for each individual per season and the number of hatchlings produced by neophytes versus remigrants. An evaluation of these parameters will help to determine whether the more experienced remigrants show greater productivity than the less experienced neophytes.

Five species of turtles have been reported. Both Chelonia mydas and Eretmochelys imbricata are relatively common and make the bulk of the record. The available information regarding the status of turtle populations in the Eritrean Red Sea (ERS) is very scant. From the limited investigations conducted, community knowledge suggests that the populations are declining. However, there are no past records with which to compare present levels. It is clear that surveys are required to establish present population levels and lay baseline information with which future management strategies could be compared. There are extensive potential foraging and nesting habitats on both the mainland coast and on the islands, but little is known owing to the very low human population density and no documented baseline studies. Basic inventories of nesting and foraging habitats are needed to fill gaps in knowledge of population status, distribution, reproductive potential and level of exploitation. Traditional use of marine turtles and their products by the local communities is largely subsistence harvesting for meat and eggs. Shells are discarded at fishing camps along the beach and used only as containers for other products being processed (shark products and beche de mer). Even though most of the required legislation, regulatory and enforcement procedures and accessions to the requisite international conventions are in place, the operating mechanisms have not yet been established with respect to turtles and other endangered species which require protection.

Emerging turtles were divided between two paired treatments: wall and control. Intercepted turtles in the wall treatment were presented a portable wall that blocked their ascent of the beach. The position of the portable wall was shore-parallel and midway between the recent wrack line and the dune toe. Intercepted turtles in the control treatment ascended the beach and did not encounter a wall. We observed 44 female loggerheads (22 paired samples) in both treatments and measured their nesting behavior, hi the control treatment, 15 of 22 turtles completed a nest and in the wall treatment, 14 of 22 turtles completed a nest. There was no significant difference in nesting success (nests/attempts) between treatments. However, effects from the wall resulted in wall-treatment nests being 3.5 m closer to the surf than control nests, on average. Egg survivorship did not differ significantly between treatments; however, the sample size was not large enough to detect biologically significant differences in hatching success amidst the high variation in the data. An additional factor that made our test of hatching success less rigorous was the absence of significant beach erosion during the study period. Erosion is the principal cause of mortality to nests low on the beach and has been observed to cause 100% mortality in the region of beach where the wall-treatment nests were located.

In the Pacific it is accused of decreasing the loggerhead sea turtle (Caretta caretta) population on 80% in 20 years, of leading the leatherback sea turtle (Dermochelys coriacea) to extinction and of overfishing pelagic sharks. In the Azorean waters, mainly used by the oceanic juveniles of loggerheads, these fisheries target swordfish (Xiphias gladius) and blue shark (Prionace glauca). The loggerhead bycatch rates differ according to which of these species are targeted. The data were recorded during a longline gear modification experiment conducted in the Azores in the year 2000. Of 232 loggerhead turtles recorded on 93 longline sets, two were dead by drowning and 31 were put back in the sea with the hook still inside; their mortality is high. The size classes of loggerheads being impacted (24-72 cm curved carapace length) constitutes the largest size class of loggerheads occurring in the Azores and are considered very important for the survivorship of the North Atlantic population. The results show that the captures are not uniformly distributed around the fishing effort; 81% of the sets captured 1/3 of the total loggerheads, with a high capture rate around the oriental group of islands and in the summer months, coinciding with the presence of the thermohaline front in the area.

Hematological values play an important role in diagnosis and treatment of all species and are useful parameters that indicate the health status or state of disease in sea turtles. The objective of this study was to establish the baseline hematological values for green turtles (Chelonia mydas) in the Gulf of Venezuela, High Venezuelan Guajira. Between April and June of 2004, 30 green turtles (29 clinically healthy and 1 with fibropapilloma GTFP) were collected from Gulf of Venezuela. Turtles were captured by placing nets along the coastline. Green turtles were measured and examined for the presence of fibropapillomas. A blood sample was taken from the dorsal postoccipital sinuses (Owens and Ruiz 1980). Blood was collected in vacutainer tubes containing lithium heparin using 21 gauge needles and 5 ml or 10 ml syringes. Hematologic erythrocyte (RBC) count and leukocyte (WBC) count were determined with microscopy using Natt and Herrick's solution technique. The packed cell volume (PCV) was determined for centrifugation at 16500 rpm for 5 minutes. The leukocytes were visualized using DiffQuik stains.

Although the Caribbean tourism industry thrives on a coastal/ocean aesthetic and recreational product, it is often criticized for its poor environmental record. Sea turtles may serve as an educational tool to help promote local biodiversity and ecosystem health while encouraging changes in corporate and tourist behavior. The Wider Caribbean Sea Turtle Conservation Network (WIDECAST) and the Caribbean Alliance for Sustainable Tourism (CAST) co-sponsored the development of a best practices manual in regards to sea turtles for beachfront properties. Based on recommendations made at an industry meeting in Barbados, the manual will provide a Sea Turtle Policy Statement as well as standard guidelines and criteria for implementing the policy statement. These guidelines will assist hotel management and staff to implement sea turtle protection policies throughout the region.

Setting up a website is no longer the domain of the cyber specialist. Do-it-yourself software has lead to a significant increase in the number of NGOs creating their own sites with online capabilities ranging from tracking tagged turtles, accessing photo archives, sharing raw and meta-data, to interactive GIS. As more NGOs come online, an opportunity now exists to centralise the sharing of practical information through an online guide for turtle research and conservation. The guide will act as a hub for all, enabling access to the latest and geographically relevant sources of knowledge and information on turtle research, conservation and sustainable management practices globally. However, more importantly, it will provide an online toolbox to enable users to identify or characterise their turtle-related issues/problems and then advise on a solution(s) based on existing practices and methodologies. The flexibility and speed of up-dating information online will also promote users to share their expertise on turtle conservation and management by adding their own findings and solutions to the toolbox.

As such, these ridleys constitute a cost-effective means of updating information on population structure and distribution, while providing an opportunity for hooked individuals to be examined, x-rayed, rehabilitated (if necessary) and characterized as to their post-release behavior.

Hatchling loggerheads from the east coast of Florida, USA, emerge from nests on sandy beaches, crawl to the water and swim offshore to the Gulf Stream (a heading that is generally eastward). Because the Sun rises roughly east of Florida, it has been suggested, though not yet demonstrated, that the rising Sun may play a role in the offshore orientation behavior of these animals. As a first step toward investigating this possibility I observed the behavior of two groups of hatchlings swimming in pools of water on an eastward facing beach in Florida. One group of turtles could view the rising sun unaltered while the other group could not view the rising sun directly but could view a reflection of the sun in a mirror. The mirror was positioned so that the reflected sun was shifted 90 from the bearing to the natural Sun. Hatchlings that were exposed to the natural Sun were significantly oriented toward the Sun while hatchlings exposed to the reflected Sun were significantly oriented toward the reflection. The mean headings of the two groups were significantly different. These results demonstrate that hatchlings can use the Sun as an orientation cue; however, it is not yet clear how this ability might fit into the overall offshore migratory program.

Worldwide assessments on turtle bycatch in longlines have been limited due to gaps of information on turtles CPUE in some regions, including the southeast Pacific. Through a shore based observer program in 2001-2003, we estimated there were 2025 turtles captured at eight ports sampled in Peru. However, due to the clandestine nature of the use of captured turtles, an accurate estimate of turtle CPUE was difficult to achieve. Therefore, in 2003 we established an onboard observer program based in Ilo, home to the largest artisanal longline fleet in Peru, targeting mahi mahi and sharks. During the first ten months of the program, ten greens, one hawksbill, 16 olive ridleys, two leatherbacks and 108 loggerheads were recorded. Of these, 72% were entangled in the line while 23% were usually hooked. Fisheries are the second largest economic sector of Peru. However, endangered marine fauna are being affected by fishing practices. Sea turtles in Peru are legally protected but due to poor socio-economic conditions in the country, political instability and insufficient resources, enforcement of this legislation is very limited. In the case of longline fisheries in Peru, we recommend the implementation of mitigation measures (i.e. de-hookers, circle hooks) together with improved basic education in coastal communities.

Although visual cues are thought to be of primary importance in seafinding, secondary cues might also be involved. To investigate whether geomagnetic cues might play a role in seafinding, hatchlings were permitted to crawl across the beach with tiny magnets or nonmagnetic brass bars attached to their carapaces. On nights with little or no cloud cover (and thus significant beach illumination), no differences in orientation were observed between the two groups. On dark nights with dense cloud cover and extremely low visibility, however, the orientation of turtles bearing magnets differed significantly from that of controls, even though both groups located the ocean. These preliminary findings suggest that loggerhead hatchlings may use magnetic information to orient toward the sea under conditions in which visual cues are limited.

We have adapted a conditioned choice discrimination method to study vision and magnetic field perception in juvenile loggerhead sea turtles (Caretta caretta). To conduct these studies, we designed and constructed a fully automated, computerized conditioning arena. Our technique requires turtles to discriminate between two slightly different sensory stimuli and to press one of two available paddles, depending on the stimulus present. Correct choices are rewarded with food and incorrect choices result in a time penalty. The technique has been used successfully in initial experiments, which have demonstrated perception of simple visual and magnetic stimuli and set the stage for more detailed analyses of the sensory ability of turtles. The methodology developed provides a new and powerful behavioral assay for investigating the ability of turtles to perceive any sensory stimulus of interest, including visual, chemical, auditory and magnetic cues.

Although this poster focuses on the Leatherback, background on historical illustration is provided (as in the first two installments - Eretmochelys and Chelonia), this time covering Travelogues, "Cabinets of Curiosities," and Encyclopedias. As zoological visual documentation evolved from cave art to modern photography, so did knowledge of the Leatherback. Dermochelys manuscript images exist from 1460, but most representations appeared much later. These wood engravings were exaggerated or enhanced, seeking appeal with symmetrical unrealistic poses or stylized designs, the result of social/religious pressure and perhaps simple aesthetics. Eventually, steel and copper engravings replaced those of wood. Later, color was added, each plate done by hand. Plagiarism was rampant, or perhaps just a good source for material. But books were not common and those of this era were not for the masses, rather for the rich or religious. Popular literature would come much later and incorporate many of these likenesses. For such a significant and imposing animal, it is extraordinary that it was not better represented in early works. Also surprising is that Vandelli's description and Vallisneri's figure did not occur until 1761, five years prior to Linnaeus' seventh edition of Svstema Naturae. While some early material was surprisingly accurate (Tempesta's 1600 Leatherback), other turtles were pictured with teeth. Scientific fact was rarely represented in early works, but those skewed depictions are vital in understanding the changing view of Dermochelys, providing a time capsule of this era's world vision.

However, due to the insufficient knowledge of the local residents and the political interferences from local government, the activity has not been carried out yet. Long-term insufficient government funding has created a questionable future for the refuge site. This is an unhealthy development for sea turtle conservation in Taiwan. A recent study, however, suggests that the grassroots education may be a feasible method to solve this problem. A two-day beach patroller re-training program was carried out at the beginning of September 2004. Fifty-six people, including patrollers and local residents, attended the program. Questionnaire interviews on each participant before and after the program showed that economic incentives (i.e. available jobs) are the major motivation for the local people to learn the knowledge of sea turtle ecology and conservation. The awareness of importance of sea turtle conservation increased from 52% to 89%. The willingness to cooperate with the conservation activities also increased from 13% to 68%. The knowledge of sea turtle ecology improved significantly after the training program. Results of this study suggest that the problems that ecotourism is facing, which also threats the management of the refuge site, can be solved or decreased through the grassroots education.

In this study, we investigate the role of geometric constraints on spatial and temporal nest distribution patterns using the mid-domain effect (MDE) model, which was originally developed to evaluate patterns of species richness. Using spatial and temporal nesting data from Tortuguero, Costa Rica, we develop simulation models and demonstrate that intraspecific spatial and temporal nest distribution patterns within well-defined spatial and temporal boundaries can be evaluated within the context of the MDE model. Deviations from the model may be attributed to overriding environmental factors. The model also provides an estimate of the mean spatial nesting range of individual green turtles at Tortuguero.

These threats include predation at various life history stages that may affect population levels within each species. Recent attention has been drawn to the interspecific interactions between sharks and sea turtles. In an attempt to gain insight into these shark-turtle interactions, researchers have started using the tool of injury identification to infer estimates of injury resulting from attempted predation. During our efforts to systematically classify injuries present on the turtles entrained within the intake system at the St. Lucie Nuclear Power Plant, Florida, USA it has become evident that there are no standard criteria used when classifying an injury as shark-related. This is an important component when comparing data within and among study locations. In this presentation, we present clearly defined shark-related injury criteria for researchers to use when attempting to discern shark-related injuries from other injury sources, thereby standardizing shark-related injuries being reported.

They do much of this work with limited or no funding. But each of us only examines a part of any sea turtle's life history or a part of any one population. So understanding our hard won data requires placing our results in a larger context. This is where research networks and data sharing become critical to the future of sea turtles. In this talk, I recap my experiences on a number of synthesis efforts from the Turtle Expert Working Group (TEWG), to the Loggerhead Recovery Team, to the State of the World's Sea Turtles (SWoT) introduced at the last ISTS meeting, as well as several large collaborative research projects. In order to be successful in managing and protecting sea turtles at a local, regional, or global level, we must collaborate effectively. Here I hope to open a dialog on data sharing and collaboration. The future of sea turtles will depend upon the ability of concerned scientists and managers to work together, build a comprehensive understanding and encourage strong national and international management.

AN - 20494957; 9187948 AB - It's been ten years since the first alarm regarding the situation of the leatherback turtle (Dermochelys coriacea) in the Mexican Pacific, once considered the largest population in the world after the collapse of the Malaysian population. The daily track counts done from 1982 to 2004 have shown a declining trend for the number of leatherback nests in the four index beaches of the Mexican Pacific (Mexiquillo, Tierra Colorada, Cahuitn and Barra de la Cruz). The worst nesting season was 2002-2003, in which only 120 leatherback nests were recorded in the index beaches combined. The decline is attributed to a combination of extensive egg harvest in all Mexican Pacific beaches prior to conservation activities and high mortality of large adults in pelagic fisheries. From 1982 to 2004, a total of 229,751 leatherback hatchlings were released into the wild. It is a relatively small number compared to the whole reproductive potential of the population since the early 80s, hence the continuing decline in spite of 20 years of protection activities. The leatherback turtle in Mexico is on the brink of extinction and only drastic and immediate measures can change the trend. But there is hope for the future of the population given by the protection of at least 90% of the clutches laid on the index beaches, the participation of local communities in the conservation activities and increased awareness of the situation of the leatherback among the Mexican society.

El Cuyo beach, in Yucatan, Mexico, is located in the Ria Lagartos Biosphere Reserve and is one of the most important hawksbill nesting beaches in this area. The objective of the present study was to determine the average nest center temperatures in El Cuyo beach and to discover possible development differences between central and peripheral eggs. During the 2004 nesting season, 10 randomly selected nests were studied in situ. All but the peripheral eggs were painted with methylen blue and a tube was placed in the center of the clutch to allow temperature measurements with a penetration thermo hygrometer. After hatching, the studied nests were excavated and eggs counted and subsequently inserted into the following mutually exclusive categories: hatched, rotten, with or without apparent embryonic development (EWAED and EWNED, resp.) and hatching dead or alive (HD and HA). Most eggs were peripheral, with approximately a 3:1 ratio. The major differences observed between central and peripheral eggs were observed in EWAED and Rotten categories. The eggs in these categories were mostly central ones. On the second third of incubation, 6 nests always had inner temperature values above pivotal, while the average temperatures on the remaining 4 were just slightly higher. This suggests that a female biased population was originated in this beach. This has very important implications to the conservation of this species in the Caribbean.

Many loggerheads caught in these fisheries are alive when released from the gear but it is assumed that many will die soon after because of injuries caused by the hooks or line entanglement. There are no robust estimates of post-release mortality for sea turtle species despite being essential for stock assessment and for evaluating the benefit of releasing turtles caught alive in the gear. We used satellite telemetry deployed by a NOAA Fisheries observer program to Investigate the post-release mortality of loggerheads caught in the Hawaii-based pelagic longline fishery. We modelled time- to-failure of all transmitters using nonparametric statistical nodelling (Kaplan-Meier-Turnbull, local regression) to derive survival and hazard functions for light- and deep-hooked loggerheads. We found a significant difference between the survival functions for light- and deep-hooked loggerheads within 90 days after release but no difference between survival functions after this time. But satellite transmitters fail for many reasons (defects, battery failure, transmitter detachment, turtle death), which results in a hazard function that confounds these competing risks. Hence it is impossible to infer post-release mortality based on satellite telemetry unless the cause of each transmitter failure is known, which is rarely the case. We discuss other survey design and statistical modelling challenges involved in the evaluation of post-release mortality based on satellite telemetry.

We compared the frequency and accuracy of Argos-linked GPS positions to conventional Argos Doppler locations under semi-captive conditions where the true location and surfacing behavior of the turtle was known. We deployed identical units on one adult female and four adult male loggerheads captured in Florida Bay (USA) just prior to the reproductive season. We examined the frequency of Argos-linked GPS positioning vs. Argos Doppler positioning. The Argos-linked GPS transmitters provided fewer overall location transmissions as compared to the conventional Argos tag, but the Argos-linked GPS positions were much more accurate. We were able to determine nesting and non-nesting emergences and locations of these emergences for the breeding female during the entire nesting season. Argos-linked GPS satellite transmitter technology offers significant promise to collect high resolution and extremely accurate location data for marine turtles; however, certain improvements will be needed to increase the frequency of acquiring GPS positions.

A serious new threat has appeared whose control and eradication is essential: the beetle Omorgus suberosus (Fabricius, 1775). This arthropod, both as larvae and as adults, eats olive ridley eggs, embryos and hatchlings. Two studies were carried out. In both studies, nests were placed in plastic pots and incubated with sand free of beetle contamination. In the first study, a known quantity of beetles was introduced into each pot, from 1 to 105 beetles, increasing by 15 in each treatment. Three attempts to treat each beetle treatment were made. After the hatching period the nests were examined to calculate the percentage of eggs destroyed by beetles. The percentage destroyed was proportional to the number of beetles. In a second study the eggs were separated into two plastic pots with 40 eggs in each. One pot of each pair contained no beetles as a control. There was apparent destruction of eggs; in some pots with beetles only 37 or 38 eggs were found instead of 40. This problem requires a non-chemical alternative method of control in order to safeguard human health and that of the turtles and of the environment, rather than subject them to the hazards of chemical pesticides. It has been demonstrated in agriculture that the use of seeds of superior plants for combating insects is economically sound and does not harm the environment.

Egg yolks collected in 2003 and 2004 from nests at St. George Island in Franklin County, on the Gulf Coast of northwest Florida and in 2003 Flagler County on the Atlantic Coast of northeast Florida were analyzed for Al, Cr, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Se, Rb, Sr, Mn, Cd, Cs, Ba, Pb and Hg, using ICP-MS batch metal analysis. Although there was great variation between samples, the mean metal concentrations were greater in the last two sections, indicating the first eggs lain. The Franklin County site had previously been sampled in 1992 by Alam and Brim (2000) and their data suggest a 55% and a 42% increase in Hg and Pb respectively. For the Inter-site comparison all of the 17 metals, except Ni and As, were significantly greater in Franklin County than Flagler County, based on samples located throughout four nests at each site. The intra-clutch variation suggests contaminate concentration might be influenced by laying order. The inter-site comparison suggests the difference in diet and/or feeding locations can create different metal exposure regimes for sea turtle populations in the Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico.

OBIS-SEAMAP is a digital database of geo-referenced marine mammal, seabird and sea turtle distribution and abundance data to augment the understanding of the ecology of these megavertebrates by: (1) facilitating the study of potential impacts on threatened species, (2) enhancing our ability to test hypotheses about biogeographic and biodiversity models and (3) supporting modeling efforts to predict distributional changes in response to environmental change. To enhance the research and educational applications of this publicly available database, OBIS-SEAMAP provides a broad array of products (e.g., tabular data, maps and explicit meta-data) and services (e.g., web-based query, visualization and analysis tools). OBIS-SEAMAP provides managers with the ability to place the habits and habitats of marine megavertebrates in an oceanographic context, which is essential to design effective conservation measures. The OBIS-SEAMAP information system integrates data from disparate perspectives (e.g., movement data, vessel-based surveys, remote sensing information) required to analyze design fisheries bycatch mitigation measures, such as time-area closures and marine protected areas. Additionally, OBIS-SEAMAP provides educational products and analytical tools geared toward a broad audience of educators and students. The integration of disparate data sets into a global data commons will enhance our ability to place the behavior of these organisms in a large-scale oceanographic context and to design effective conservation measures.

Out of 746 turtles tagged in Cuba from fishing areas, nesting beaches and head-start facilities, 5.5% were recaptured, mostly outside of Cuban waters and with a majority of these (76.9%) off the coast of Nicaragua. Green turtles tagged elsewhere and recaptured in Cuba included a large number of size classes and originated in Grand Cayman, Tortuguero, Costa Rica, the Bahamas, Bermuda, Florida Quintana Roo, Mexico, Aves Island, Venezuela and the U.S. Virgin Islands, in that order. Recaptures of Tortuguero tags were concentrated in the SE and westward regions of Cuba, while Grand Cayman and the Bahamas recaptures were concentrated in the SE and NE regions, respectively. The insight gained on the migratory patterns for green turtles in the region underscores the value of prolonged and intensive tagging programs and the need for close international collaboration.

Turtle conservation at Shell Beach is therefore about to undergo a switch from a voluntary conservation effort to one with government backing and a Protected Area (PA) declaration. The Guyana Marine Turtle Conservation Society (GMTCS), the lead agency for the planning team for this area, has recognised that the success of conservation, specifically marine turtle conservation at Shell Beach, may depend on the empowerment of local communities. GMTCS has been actively looking for sustainable economic projects for the main stakeholder community, the Almond Beach Community (ABC) and is currently promoting community-based eco-tourism as a sustainable and income generating partnership.

The maintenance of an unsullied marine holding area with exposure to natural sunlight combined with dedicated long term tending to the debriding and cleansing of wounds are essential components to the successful rehabilitation of boat strike injuries in sea turtles. The use of a carbon fiber composite stabilizer attached and subsequently reattached with cyanoacrylate glue proved to be an effective mechanism in this recovery process.

Though poaching is widely recognized as a major contributor to sea turtle decline, it is difficult to measure the extent of this task since there are few quantified records. This study presents information gathered from the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service and National Marine Fisheries Service law enforcement databases as one measure of the illegal trade in sea turtles and their products within and across U. S. borders. Between 1994 and 2003, imports originating in 68 countries included over 67,000 eggs, 1000 kg of meat, 2787 pairs of turtle leather boots and 2600 pieces of jewelry. Other imported products included oil, preserved turtles and medicinal products. These seizures indicate only the minimum quantity of illegal importation, since most were from declared and inspected shipments. Therefore, the illegal products being imported into the U.

For example, in 110 cases involving seized sea turtle meat, none of the perpetrators received jail time or probation and the fines for these 110 cases totaled only $1400 US.

Individual turtles were selected for examination after the completion of nesting. A total of 4 turtles were successfully weighed, sedated, evaluated and subsequently released without incident. Gross ERG's were monitored with corneal contact lens electrode. Sensitivity was evaluated from 440 nm to 610 nm using flickering (4-12 Hz) nonochromatic stimuli. Although testing was attempted beyond this range of wavelengths and flicker rates, measurable responses could not be obtained. Maximum sensitivity for all subjects occurred at or slightly above 500 nm in concurrence with previously reported rod photopigment sensitivity data for this species (6502 nm). Results indicate that the rod visual pigments of the leatherback are similar to those of other sea turtles and are not shifted in sensitivity below 500 nm as seen in many other marine animals active in deep sea environments. Interestingly, the ERG responses of leatherbacks were quite different from those of green and loggerhead turtles when similarly tested. This disparity suggests that there may be underlying differences in retinal organization or that diurnal variation in retinal activity may exist in these sea turtles.

Until recently, post-release survival and behavior were unknown. Satellite telemetry can be used to follow migrations and previous studies of wild caught juvenile loggerheads have shown they travel north of Cape Hatteras, NC in summer but by January most are south of Cape Hatteras with few remaining off the coast of NC. Between 2003 and 2004 we attached Wildlife Computers (Redmond, WA) SPOT3 satellite transmitters to four rehabilitated loggerheads before release. To compare release protocols, two were released from the beach north of Cape Hatteras during the summer and two were released offshore south of CapeHatteras during the winter. The transmitters recorded location and water temperature data for eight hours daily. Supporting the hypothesis that rehabilitated cold-stunned turtles can successfully re-enter the wild, all four behaved as predicted based on previous tracking studies. Loggerheads released during the summer moved north and generally remained in water above 20.1 C. The lone sea turtle released in 2003 moved south when water temperature dropped below 20.1 C and over wintered south of Cape Hatteras, NC. Sea turtles released during the winter moved south and over wintered in water above 20.1 C. One turtle returned north of Cape Hatteras, NC when water temperature rose above 21.8 C; the transmitter on the second turtle failed after two months. This is the first in-depth study involving post-release movements of cold-stunned sea turtles. Tracking maps are available at www.ncaquariums.com/turtletrails/ and www.seaturtle.org.

The estuarine habitat, long life span and site fidelity of the diamondback terrapin, Malaclemys terrapin, may make this species susceptible to mercury bioaccumulation and a candidate for biomonitoring of mercury. In this study, we investigated the seasonal fluctuations of total mercury in the blood and scutes of terrapins collected in the Ashley River, Charleston Harbor, SC. Linear regressions between total mercury levels in blood and scutes were not significant in April (R super(2) =0.11, p=0.24), but were significant during the months of June and August (R super(2)= 0.70 and 0.74 resp.).

Emphasis has been on tagging census and associated intra- and inter-seasonal recaptures and embryology, temperature dependent sex determination, growth, migration and dispersal, diet, population genetics and population dynamics studies, Immature Caretta are tracked from recruitment from oceanic waters through 13 yr of growth to their first breeding migrations. First breeding occurs at about 30 yr. On average, females at first breeding are smaller, lay fewer and smaller clutches and have longer remigration intervals than in later breeding seasons over the next 20-30 yr. Breeding populations have declined by 86% since the 1970s, mostly from the result of fisheries bycatch. Fox predation of eggs was intense at the beaches that incubate most of the female hatchlings from the late 1970s to mid 1980s. The impact of this egg mortality is expected to be seen as reduced recruitment to the currently depleted adult population within the next few years. With TEDs now operational in the trawl fisheries since 2000, this mortality factor should be largely eliminated. Fox baiting programs have reduced egg loss to foxes to a trivial level since the late 1980s. Hatchling production at Mon Repos, a female producing beach, has been substantially enhanced by rescuing doomed eggs since 61990. Monitoring the impact of TEDs, fox control management and hatchling enhancement on eastern Australian Caretta population dynamics is ongoing.

Line transects of 1 km length were laid perpendicular to the shore by boat every alternative day from November 2003 to March 2004. Locations of mating pairs were recorded to estimate the extent of the reproductive patch and to identify spatio-temporal changes in the distribution of olive ridley turtles in the near shore waters of Rushikulya. Environmental parameters such as area, water depth, air and sea surface temperature were recorded. Additionally, turtle entanglements in nets were also studied; data was collected on length and mesh size of nets, duration of netting and lumber of turtles entangled, if any. The estimated surface density of olive ridley individual turtles was 35.067 per sq. km (CV: 11.22 %) and the encounter rate was 3.68 turtles per km. The reproductive patch was found to shift during the season. The area of maximum utilization for mating pairs was 57.92 sq. km. The mating pairs had a patchy distribution in the near shore waters at a depth between 16-28 m (mean: 26 m). The maximum sea turtle congregation occurred between 2-5 km from the shore. Mating pairs sightings were maximum between 11.00 hrs and 13.00 hrs and at a sea surface temperature between 25 and 26C (mean: 24.6C). Factors such as time of the day, sea surface temperature and sea states were found to influence the sea turtle congregations.

The main study objective was to determine base line health values for free-ranging turtles and to compare results from free-ranging (i.e., foraging and nesting) and stranded turtles. Biomaterials were collected from nesting and foraging turtles in conjunction with on-going ecological studies and all turtles were tagged at the time of sampling. Samples were collected from stranded turtles as part of the clinical evaluation to determine prognosis and therapeutic needs of the turtle. Samples collected from all turtles included blood, feces and epibiota from live animals, as well as complete necropsies and tissue preservation from eggs, hatchlings and adult turtles that were found freshly dead or euthanized. Additionally, physical examinations were conducted on all live caught turtles. Laboratory analyses of blood samples included hematology, plasma chemistries and protein electrophoresis.

My objective was to determine if that transfer was expedited by crawling for a specific time period - one that corresponded to the typical duration of a crawl from the nest to the surf zone. Support for that hypothesis would suggest that hatchlings possessed an "endogenous program" that optimized vector transfer when the turtles crawled for "appropriate" time. To find out, I measured how far nests were placed from the surf zone, then measured hatchling crawling speed. I then did experiments to determine whether vector transfer occurred more readily after turtles had crawled in the lab for different time periods. On average hatchlings crawled to the ocean in less than 4 min. In the lab, 1 and 5 min crawls did not result in vector transfer whereas those of 2 min did. A period of non-directional crawling interfered with the ability of a 2 min crawl to promote calibration. These results suggest that transfer of a crawling vector to the turtles' magnetic compass occurs most readily when crawls are directional and last on average about as long as a natural crawl.

However, natural undeveloped coastlines are disappearing and being replaced by urbanization such as condominiums, inlets and piers. Coastal development can have a negative impact because it prevents beaches that are naturally eroding and moving landwards from reestablishing their structural elements. This is particularly apparent after strong storm events such as those that occurred in Florida during the 2004 hurricane season.

Approximately 750 randomly selected locations were sampled annually in the nearshore waters between Winyah Bay, South Carolina and St. Augustine, Florida. A 30-minute tow was conducted at each station using a pair of 65' large-mesh nets. Catch rates were calculated and standardized using the methods of Henwood and Stuntz (1987) as modified by Jamir (1999). Catch rates of the present study were compared to catch rates in the literature. These comparisons suggest that abundance of loggerhead turtles in the nearshore waters of the southeast United States has increased significantly during the last 30 years, although genetic data indicate a majority of these turtles may be from the southern Florida subpopulation.

Pairwise ranking, a seasonal calendar and a time line were used in identifying and prioritizing problems. Systematic surveys and transect walks were conducted. Semi-structured interviews were administered to 167 local community members while a total of 33 members drawn from the local community were trained in basic sea turtle biology and project management techniques. Education and awareness activities were conducted among the local communities and schools. The data and information obtained from transect walks and interviews served to provide a basis for the preparation of a participatory map and a GIS database of the major marine turtle nesting and foraging habitats within the project area. Initial geo-referenced data interpretations and overlays were derived from 1992 aerial photographs and GPS readings. The areas around Tenewi and Ziwayu Islands were identified as the major foraging grounds. For the entire project period, a total of 84 nests were sighted with 99% of all the nesting activity occurring in beaches to the north of the Kipini village. Mortality cases showed a mean value of between 54.5cm to 58.7cm for curved carapace length (CCL) and 50.3 to 53.4cm for curved carapace width (CCW) irrespective of species. Sixty percent of the mortality cases were sighted within the southern beach stretching from Mto Tana to Shekiko.

In this study, we used stable isotope analysis to determine how isotopic fractionation from egg nutrients to hatchling tissue varies among recently hatched loggerhead turtles. Five tissues (liver, epidermis, scute, brain and muscle) and yolk sacks were dissected from 15 hatchling loggerheads, three turtles from five different clutches (n = 90 tissues). We compared isotopic signatures of carbon and nitrogen in the five tissues and yolk within each hatchling, within each clutch and among clutches to test for significant variation. Differences in signatures among tissues would indicate that heavy and light isotopes of nitrogen and carbon contained in the egg are routed differentially among tissues during embryonic development. The results of this investigation also provide information on appropriate sample sizes and relevant tissues for further studies involving stable isotopes and loggerhead hatchlings.

Many of these beaches are periodically nourished as a temporary solution to fight beach erosion. This study determined nourishment's effect on nesting loggerheads in SC using two methods: 1) examined historical nesting data from three SC beaches: Debordieu Beach, Hilton Head Island and Kiawah Island, SC, USA to determine if nourishment affected nest to total crawl ratio densities; and 2) determined if a partial nourishment project on Hunting Island, SC, USA altered physical properties of the beach. Based on the historical analysis, I found generalizations cannot be made about nourishment's impact on turtle nesting because results differed among the two nourished beaches. On Debordieu, the nest to total crawl ratio increased after nourishment to levels comparable or above control sections of the beach. On Hilton Head, the nest to total crawl ratio decreased after nourishment and was not comparable to the control beach until three years after nourishment. In the beach characteristic study, significant differences were found in sand temperature and compaction between the nourished and control beaches on Hunting Island, SC with the nourished sand being warmer and more compact. These differences may have the potential to affect turtle nesting success and the nest environment.

The eggshells were taken from freshly laid eggs immediately after oviposition and from eggs shortly after hatching. The eggshell samples were analyzed for the elemental composition and image mapping done using the Oxford energy dispersive x-ray spectrometer (EDS) at 20 kV. Quantitative analysis of composition and distribution were displayed to compare weight and atomic percentages, In addition, eggshells were examined under a low vacuum and viewed with back scattered electron detector at 20 kV or examined at a higher vacuum (gold coated) with secondary electron detector at 5 kV using JSM-5600 LV. Eggshells are composed of three layers: an outer layer made up of predominately loose calcium carbonate crystals and an inner shell layer of compact calcium carbonate. The shell membrane is made up of a thin sheet containing numerous fibers. Comparing the percentage of element weights in eggshells after egg laying with the ones after hatching, it revealed that the elements (C, O, Na, Mg, Al, Si, S, Cl, Cu, Zn and Pb) were significantly higher (P < 0.05).

Six beach rangers are employed by Hatohobei State and Community Conservation Network (CCN) to monitor beaches everyday, alternating hours each day, seven days a week. The island is 3.1 hectares in area with a shoreline perimeter of 1,973-m at mean low tide. From June 2003 to April 2004, a total of 347 green turtles were observed. Only the green turtle, Chelonia mydas, was observed. The greatest number of tracks and turtles were observed in August 2003 (55 turtles) and April 2004 (60 turtles). Of the total 347 crawls recorded, only 3 were unsuccessful, no false crawls were recorded. From January 2004 to April 2004, a total of 350 hatchlings were observed of which 60% were seen during February, 36% in January, 3% in March and 1% in April. The Helen Reef Program has had a 3-year ban on turtle harvesting that will end October 24, 2004. This information will be used towards implementing a management plan for turtles at Helen Reef. Future studies will include ongoing monitoring of nesting and foraging turtles, environmental characteristics of the nesting areas, hatchling success, tagging and measuring turtles and management issues. The project has received financial and technical support from the David and Lucille Packard Foundation, MacArthur Foundation, Homeland Foundation, Bureau of Marine Resources, Hatohobei State, the Community Centered Network, US Fish and Wildlife Service and the Pacific Island Regional Office of NOAA Fisheries.

The Fish and Wildlife Research Institute (FWRI) coordinates statewide nesting beach surveys that are carried out by a network of researchers who hold permits from Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. This survey network allows researchers to study the factors that affect sea turtle hatchling production in Florida and to estimate total hatchling production statewide. We measured loggerhead (Caretta caretta) and green turtle (Chelonia mydas) hatchling production at ten sites on beaches throughout the state between 2002 and 2004. Researchers at each site conducted season-long nesting surveys and inventoried a representative sampling of the nests. In our analysis, we focused on three questions. (1) How many hatchlings leave Florida beaches annually? (2) What are the sources of egg and hatchling mortality on Florida beaches? (3) How did four hurricanes affect hatchling production in 2004? Our results indicated that the annual hatchling emergence success from loggerhead nests (n=784, n=1173, n=897) ranged 48-68% and from green turtle nests (n=108, n=78, n=102) ranged 13-61% during this period. The principal disturbances to nests that were observed to affect hatchling/egg mortality were predation predominantly by raccoons (Procyon lotor) and ghost crabs (Ocypode quadrata) and beach erosion from storms. The effects of beach erosion on sea turtle nesting were profound in 2004 because four major hurricanes eroded, inundated and accreted almost every nesting beach in Florida near the peak of nest incubation. These storm effects were greatest for green turtles, which have their peak in nesting activity approximately one month after the peak in loggerhead nesting. In addition, a 2-factor ANOVA on transformed loggerhead hatchling emergence percentages showed that both year (F = 58.4, df = 2) and beach location (F = 16.3, df = 9) significantly affected hatchling emergence success.

We present results of a long-term (32 yr) study of Hawaiian green turtles. We used a 25 yr capture-mark-recapture program to derive temporal and spatial estimates of somatic growth and we evaluated the effect of the tumour-forming disease, fibropapillomatosis, on growth. To evaluate disease effect, we used Bayesian regression modelling that accounts for random effects due to individual heterogeneity and correlated growth measurements. The disease effect on somatic growth was limited to large immature turtles with advanced fibropapillomatosis. Moreover, disease severity has slowed since the mid-1990s and may be declining. We used a long-term (22 yr) study of green turtle strandings in the Hawaiian Archipelago to explore the temporal and spatial dynamics of the disease. Fibropapillomatosis is the most common cause of stranding in the Archipelago but boat strike and shark attack are more likely to result in a dead turtle stranding. The probability of a fibropapilloma-related stranding is higher around Maui and O'ahu but has declined since the mid-1990s. We used another long-term (32 yr) study of nesting Hawaiian green turtles to show that despite exposure to many hazards, this stock has increased significantly in abundance since the 1980s. These long-term studies provide sound evidence that the once depleted Hawaiian green turtle stock is recovering following protection from nesting habitat destruction and harvesting.

This is the foundation principle for the establishment of the Brazilian national sea turtle conservation initiative known as Projeto TAMAR, which was established in 1980. TAMAR now has 21 permanent field stations set up near the major sea turtle nesting areas along more than 1000 km of the Brazilian mainland coast. A comprehensive long-term research program operates from these and includes routine collection of information on nesting and hatching success. The research program also includes capture-mark-recapture efforts in the foraging grounds for some locations such as the Archipelago of Fernando de Noronha. These foraging ground studies are providing important demographic information on the status of the Brazilian sea turtles stocks such as somatic growth rates, survival probabilities and population abundance. However, TAMAR is far more than just a research program. For the last 25 years TAMAR has strived to incorporate human and social issues into all its conservation initiatives. It has done this by involving local communities directly in all its sea turtle conservation efforts. For instance, local fishermen who were previously turtle hunters and egg collectors were hired to protect major nesting areas along the Brazilian coastline. Changing the habits of local coastal communities whose livelihood depends on their consumptive use of sea turtles has been a major challenge. TAMAR has provided viable alternative socio-economic solutions for these communities. TAMAR now employs more than 1200 local people in various eco-tourism based activities including "Turtle by Night". This generates local income and a sense of self-esteem for the communities as well as ensuring the long-term protection of the sea turtle stocks of Brazil. The involvement of fishermen and local communities has been a successful long-term strategy with most nesting areas showing significant increases in nesting activity along the Brazilian coastline since these community initiatives were put in place. Continuing the long-term research program is essential for providing the key indicators of the ongoing success of this community participation based conservation initiative.

The popularity and widespread use of satellite telemetry warrants a thorough evaluation of the progress and limitations facing this field of study. We reviewed satellite telemetry studies published during the last 16 years (1987-2003) and focus this presentation on marine turtle literature. We address the following aspects: (1) Objectives and Hypotheses, (2) Experimental Design, (3) Processing Telemetry Data, (4) Animal Movement Analysis and (5) Habitat Use Analysis. Our objective in conducting this critical review is three-fold: 1) we want to elevate the standards against which future satellite tracking studies will be evaluated by highlighting published papers that have undertaken in-depth and statistically rigorous analyses, 2) we hope that this review will increase the awareness of existing analyses and enhance communication across taxonomic groups and 3) we wish to stimulate the retrospective re-analysis of telemetry data that have already been collected and paid for but were originally analyzed in a very limited fashion. Because conservation funding will always be limited, relatively low-cost re-analysis of existing data represents an efficient use of resources. In particular, retrospective analyses using standardized techniques will help to identify existing knowledge gaps to be addressed by future studies. Additionally, we seek to promote carefully designed experiments that test specific hypotheses to make the most of valuable telemetry data.

Today leatherbacks predominate. More turtles were slaughtered than were tagged in 1988. Only 30 were tagged in 1999, but over 200 were tagged in 1992. Nesting occurs on various beaches within the remote "Shell Beach" coast in northwestern Guyana. Beaches - and turtles - shift annually following cycles of erosion and accretion of both shell and mud. In 2000, efforts were shifted to Kamwatta Beach, a "recovered" major nesting site. With seven wardens, we found an incredible average of 40 turtles per night during the peak weeks. Sadly, poachers swarmed other beaches (Tiger and Gwennie beaches) and over 150 leatherbacks were killed. In April 2000 we started the Guyana Marine Turtle Conservation Society (GMTCS), a new NGO, to handle grants, establish no-fishing zones and continue education programs started by Pritchard years earlier. Greens had an excellent early nesting season in 2004, with over 300 nests between March 16-30, but many nests were raided by poachers. By midseason over 40 hunters in 12 camps were encamped on Tiger Beach, killing turtles and taking eggs. Currently, Guyana is developing a Shell Beach Protected Area, with the EPA responsible for oversight and GMTCS the lead agency for planning. With five thematic areas of operation, GMTCS has been working with targeted communities building awareness and capacity for informed decisions and management of resources within the forthcoming protected area.

The project was constructed in two segments, one constructed in 2002 with a zero meter seaward berm slope and an adjacent segment in 2003 with modifications to the berm so that a 1/3 meter slope existed over the berm width. The purposes of this berm modification were to mimic natural beach profiles and to reduce the amount of berm inundation during spring tides, which presents the potential for seawater inundation of eggs. The area encompassing the two nourished and adjacent non-nourished beaches have been systematically studied since 1989. A sizeable database of pre-nourishment data has been established regarding marine turtle nesting and reproduction. As a result, an adequate assessment is provided discerning the effects of the differently constructed slopes during the first and second seasons post-nourishment that allow for temporal fluctuations and natural trends. Our results indicate that a 1/3 meter seaward slope of the berm significantly reduces impacts to marine turtle nesting success. However, an increase in non-nesting emergences was still exhibited. Preliminary data suggest that there was no significant reduction in the occurrence of nests being washed out during erosion of the berm caused by strong surf. We recommend that future beach nourishment projects implement alternative construction templates with greater berm slope to minimize impacts to marine turtles.

The concept was to ask the fishers to participate in the process of identifying the solutions to the problem and:o test the alternative technology in their own boats. After 9 nonths of activity and the organization of dozens of workshops, we have acquired an experience we'd like to share. Statistical results are presented in another paper; here, we focus on the approach to the fishing community. Over time, the structure of the workshops has evolved into a format we believe is effective. The fishers' participation is voluntary, their opinions are heard and they don't feel threatened by the program. Honest reports and correct information are allowing us to identify the problems that need to be faced. The combination of a trusting relationship with the fishers, the observer reports and the captain interviews are providing us with a clear picture of the situation that is guiding our approach to the solutions. Stimulating their creativity has resulted in potentially interesting ideas that are beginning to originate in them for experiments to reduce bycatch. In this contribution, we'll focus on the interactions with the individual fishers and their organizations, the dynamics of the groups and the problems caused by competing organizations, individual agendas and other difficulties of the interaction.

Little is known about the life cycle of leatherback turtles and the threats they face while in the sea. Understanding the distribution and occurrence of sea turtles has been recognized as an essential element for the successful recovery of the endangered sea turtle populations. Fisheries are an important sampling and data collecting tool for sea turtle research and conservation, but at the same time represent a threat for sea turtles. Incidental catch in fisheries is recognized as a major mortality factor for leatherback turtles, but little is known about the magnitude of this problem in the southwestern Atlantic Ocean (ASO). Leatherback turtles have been reported to interact with the lines of crab or lobster traps, mainly in the US (Cape Cod) and in Great Britain (Cornish coast). In this work, we present the first report of leatherback entanglement in trap lines in the ASO. A scientific onboard observer reported the incidental capture of three leatherback turtles in the Uruguayan continental shelf, entangled in the mainline (polyamide, diameter=24 mm, length=1500 m) of a snail trap fishing vessel during a one month (May 18th to June 17th 2004) fishing trip. The first two turtles were released alive, but the last one was already dead when the hauling occurred. The fishing zone exceeded 60 m in depth. Further research and monitoring of this fishery is recommended in order to better understand this problem.

Behavioral studies have shown that sea turtles can distinguish odors under water and in the air which suggests that olfaction might play a role in locating feeding sites, nesting beaches and in mating interactions. One way to assess the importance of a system to the life history of an animal is to see how active selection has been on the genes involved in that system. This can be accomplished by assessing the allelic variation of a gene across populations of the animal. Low allelic variation suggests strong selection, thus, high importance of a gene. Odors are detected in the olfactory system by odor receptors (ORs) embedded in the nasal tissue. OR genes code for these receptors. By cloning and sequencing OR genes from blood DNA, several sea turtle OR genes were identified. Two of these genes showed remarkable conservation between loggerhead, leatherback and green sea turtles. An allelic variation study was conducted on these two genes plus several more of the turtle OR genes found. Blood samples were obtained from 20 Atlantic, 10 Pacific and 18 Mediterranean loggerheads plus 19 Pacific greens and 25 Atlantic leatherbacks. Allelic variation for the two conserved genes was zero within populations and extremely low (1-6 amino acids different) between populations and species. Variation was also low in the other genes surveyed suggesting that olfaction is indeed very important for these animals.

In these experiments, eight month old green sea turtles were selected at random from a large population maintained at the Parque Xcaret, Mexico. Three different experiments were designed to obtain a more thorough description of the turtles' activity with the absence and presence of play objects. Three different play objects were used (an elongated yellow ball, a medium-sized blue ball and an orange disc). We hypothesized that green sea turtles would initially experience neophobia towards the objects, avoiding their vicinity, but through more exposure, they would be more inquisitive and interact with the objects. Fisher's Exact Probability Tests were used to determine whether turtles spent more or less time in the target quadrant in the presence of play objects than expected based on time spent in the target quadrants in the absence of play objects. Then, the amount of time the turtles spent with a particular play object was analyzed. We found that green sea turtles were neophobic initially, then very curious about the play objects. A clear preference emerged for the orange play object. Given the complex nature of defining exactly what play is, it is difficult to say that the turtles were, in fact, playing. Alternatively, the turtles may have been attempting to groom themselves. Further research is needed to evaluate this question in this species.

A tagging program has revealed that their foraging area is the Pacific coast of the main islands of Japan, which are to the north of the rookery. In order to examine the seasonal changes in diving behavior of postnesting green turtles, time-depth and time-temperature recorders were deployed on two nesting females at the Chichijima, Ogasawara Islands, Japan, during September 1996 and October 1997. One female was recaptured in a pound net in Miyazaki, Kyushu after 77 days of release. Although the other female was not recaptured, the dataloggers for her were found and recovered underseas in Hachijojima, Izu Islands after 290 days of release. A range of different dive profiles were observed. However, both turtles performed dives where they remained at a fixed depth (6 20 m) for a long period. We assumed that such dives were caused by the turtles resting on the sea bed. Restingdive duration and percentage of total resting time per day changed seasonally with water temperature (16 to 28 C). The maximum dive duration of 253 minutes was recorded when the water temperature was 15.3 C. There was a significant negative correlation between water temperature and resting-dive duration.

Although numbers of nesting females have remained constant for the first eleven survey seasons (1987-1997), inclusion of more recent data (1998-2003) in the analysis reveals a statistically significant upward trend. We examined two reproductive subpopulations, neophytes (primaparous females) and remigrants (experienced females), in order to assess their respective contributions to population growth. We found that neophytes have shown a statistically significant upturn in numbers, while the remigrant subpopulation has remained stationary. This indicates that the increase in numbers of neophytes in the Jumby Bay nesting population is driving the upward trend in the total number of nesters. Predictive models based on the Poisson distribution suggest that the neophyte subpopulation will continue to grow in size by an average of 12% per annum. We discuss model-based predictions and their limitations. The Jumby Bay Hawksbill Project, which has protected nesting hawksbills and their eggs since the projects onset in 1987, is only one of several factors which may contribute to the recent increase in nesting females. Other possible causes are discussed.

Metabolic and ventilatory rates are expected to vary with the same rhythms. Evidence has shown, however, that there are also circadian and circannual changes in chemosensitivity independent of changes in temperature. It has also been shown that turtles can undergo seasonal metabolic suppression. If this is so, then it should lead to variations in breathing pattern and diving profiles, while total ventilation remains unchanged, resulting in implications on their natural behaviour. There are increasing concerns of the effects of daily and seasonal temperatures on the survival of sea turtles. The effects of circadian and circannual cycles on physiological variables such as metabolic rate, ventilation and chemosensitivity are rarely studied on sea turtles, due to the difficulties of performing such experiments in the field. Therefore, red-ear sliders serve as a useful model to elucidate these mechanisms.

During the mid-1900s, the population experienced a huge decline due to tortoiseshell exploitation. In 2003, a collaborative project undertaken by local, national and international organizations documented 491 hawksbill nests at Chiriqui, Zapatilla Cays and Escudo de Veraguas Island. Although nesting is now but a remnant of historic levels, the monitoring results emphasize the continuing regional importance of the areas hawksbill population. Monitoring was extended in 2004 to include the leatherback and hawksbill nesting seasons. Track surveys undertaken by local beach monitors at Chiriqui Beach during the 2004 leatherback season documented 3,077 leatherback nests. Based on these results and a review of recent literature, we conclude that Chiriqui Beach hosts more leatherback nests than any other beach in Central America. The levels of hawksbill and leatherback nesting at Chiriqui Beach establish the area as a high priority for conservation action. Preliminary results from 2003 and 2004 suggest that low level poaching of hawksbill nests and nesting females, predation of hawksbill and leatherback eggs and hatchlings by dogs and directed take of hawksbill and green turtles by local fishermen represent the major survival threats to sea turtles in the area. Several environmental education activities were conducted with school children and teachers. The interest expressed by the communities adjacent to Chiriqui Beach and by local, traditional and national authorities in Panama gives us great hope that long-term sea turtle conservation efforts can be successful.

These measurements give insight into a turtle's daily food requirements and allocation of energy to various activities (i.e. growth, reproduction, movements, heat production, etc.) all of which are important factors in management of an endangered species. Estimation of these costs and budgets has been limited to modeling and determinations of individual costs of resting, swimming, digestion etc. We used 6 green turtles (mass 16.80 + 1.46 kg) imported from the Cayman turtle farm in a validation study of the Doubly Labeled Water (DLW) method for determinations of daily energetic expenditure versus real-time respirometry. Although several biologists have attempted to use DLW in sea turtles this study represents the first validation of its use. Animals were injected with DLW then placed in a respirometer for 5-day trials in both fed and fasted states. Blood samples were taken at the start, mid and end points for DLW determinations and oxygen consumption was monitored continuously. Green turtle total body water (TBW) ranged from 62.3 to 66.5 %, water flux rates ranged from 6.25 to 10.3 % of TBW and the DLW method gave energetic determinations which deviated from respirometry determinations by 0.26% to 30%.

Founded by Conservation International, the ISTS, the Marine Turtle Specialist Group and Duke University's OBIS-SEAMAP project, SWoT is a long needed effort to create a publicly available, high quality, consensus driven, permanently evolving, global geo-referenced database of nesting beaches, migration routes and foraging areas for all species of marine turtles. This tool will allow the sea turtle movement as a whole to identify conservation priorities and gaps, readily see global or regional trends in turtle numbers and the mapped results will be used to engage governments, donors, corporations and lawmakers. For SWoT's first year, we have chosen to map all leatherback nesting beaches worldwide with nesting data from the most recent season. In the future, the SWoT report will be expanded to include data on all sea turtle species and at-sea data, such as migratory routes and foraging areas. Advancing a global data sharing initiative of this magnitude presents a serious challenge. This presentation will discuss lessons learned, successes, failures and future directions for the project. Most importantly, we will discuss potential applications for the SWoT results and demonstrate how sea turtle researchers and conservationists worldwide can get the most out of the SWoT initiative.

However, an area that has received relatively little attention is the experience and perception of stakeholder participants. This paper examines the results of a rapid appraisal of stakeholder participants' perceptions of the establishment, development and current state of the Turtle Conservation Projects (TCP) community-based in situ marine turtle rookery protection programme in Rekawa, Sri Lanka. Personal accounts were gathered, through a structured interview, from community members who have been directly involved with the TCP in Rekawa over the past decade. Analysis of the data sheds light on participants' experiences of the impact of the CBC approach on their lives and provides an insight into their evaluation of the projects methodological successes and failures. This paper identifies potential pitfalls in the CBC approach and highlights lessons that have been learned from examining the participants' experiences.

An improved understanding of the stimuli that induce turtles to approach longline sets may therefore be useful in efforts to minimize the impacts of such fisheries on sea turtle populations. Among the cues that may attract turtles are the glowing light sticks (chemiluminescent lights or battery-powered electrolumes) that are attached to many longlines and are believed to attract fish. To investigate whether these lights also attract sea turtles, we studied the responses of captive-reared juvenile loggerhead turtles to a variety of light sticks used in longline fisheries. Experiments were conducted at the NMFS Galveston Sea Turtle Facility. Each turtle was tethered to an electronic tracking system inside a large, water-filled arena, so that the orientation of the turtle could be monitored. Results indicated that turtles were strongly attracted to glowing light sticks. All colors (orange, yellow, green, blue and near-ultraviolet) and types of light sticks (chemical or battery-powered electrolumes) attracted turtles. Light sticks that flashed intermittently, however, failed to attract turtles. Another promising modification involved shading the top of the light so that light projects downward (away from turtles near the surface). Thus, the results suggest two possible ways in which light sticks might be modified to reduce their attractiveness to turtles.

In particular, practitioners are experimenting with direct payments (or "performance payments") for species and habitat protection. These payment approaches are based on a willing buyer-willing seller model. Sellers deliver conservation outcomes in exchange for a negotiated payment in cash or in kind. Payments are conditional on conservation outcomes. These payments tie the welfare of those in the best position to protect biodiversity to the conservation objectives of society.

The availability of suitable nesting habitat is important for the recovery of sea turtles in Florida, which has substantial human development near its beaches. In the current study, we identified both anthropogenic and natural objects as potential barriers to nesting (PBNs) and determined the position and extent of these with a differentially corrected global positioning system. Barrier attributes, such as impediment (low, moderate, high), permanency (low, moderate) and entrapment (none, low, high), were assigned to each object to categorize the level of effects on sea turtle nesting. Data were collected from April 2001 to May 2002 in four regions of Florida: northeast, southeast, northwest and southwest. The length of randomly selected beaches was 80,450 m in each region. The total lengths of PBN coverage in the four regions are: southeast, 19,136 m (23.8%); southwest, 17,437 m (21.7%); northwest, 11,361 m (14.1%); and northeast, 9,897 m (12.3%). Anthropogenic structures are constructed and removed constantly from Florida beaches and also are covered or uncovered by sand, especially after storm events. The present assessment, therefore, only presents a snapshot of PBNs in Florida, but it describes what types are present and how abundant the structures are at each region in the surveyed period.

S. loggerhead (Caretta caretta) population has declined over the last four decades with shrimp trawls believed to be the single largest source of mortality for juvenile through adult life stages. In response to increased sea turtle stranding rates, the South Atlantic Fisheries Management Council (2002) explored possible options for reducing shrimp trawler/loggerhead turtle interactions. Strategies for reducing sea turtle/fisheries interactions were difficult to assess due to lack of information on sea turtle abundance and distribution. This research was initiated to compare distribution and movement patterns of adult female loggerhead turtles during inter-nesting intervals with concurrent shrimp trawler distribution. Loggerheads were captured (n = 12) from May 25 through July 8 and outfitted with sonic and satellite transmitters. Turtle locations were observed via satellite and visual observations throughout the nesting season. Weekly aerial surveys conducted over the same time period were used to determine shrimp boat distribution patterns. Movement strategies exhibited by tagged turtles during inter-nesting periods can be described as either habitual or nomadic. Areas of high shrimp trawler density overlap areas of high use by tagged loggerheads in multiple locations but seem heaviest near the estuarine demarcation line separating fishable waters from closed waters behind the barrier islands. A preferred management action may entail shifting the demarcation lines further into open water.

We performed necropsies on sea turtles found stranded on Ostional and Nancite beaches. Macroscopic and histopathological findings indicated the potential mortality causes, which can help to elaborate protocols as diagnostic guides to find the cause of death. The fieldwork was carried out on Nancite and Ostional beaches, located along the north Pacific coast of Costa Rica, from August, 2003 to January, 2004. At Nancite there was a resident volunteer who was previously trained to follow a necropsy protocol. In Ostional there was a trained assistant plus a main investigator who constantly patrolled the beach. The carcasses postmortem state/condition was categorized according to Wolke and George (1981) and Work (2000). Only those dead sea turtles in good post-mortem condition with little autolysis were sampled for histopathology evaluation. A total of 40 dead turtles were found (Nancite 8; Ostional 32). However, only 6 were in sufficiently good postmortem condition to warrant a necropsy and histopathological analyses (Ostional 2; Nancite 4). The remaining 34 dead turtles were too decomposed to be analyzed. The macroscopic findings in 2 dead turtles indicated the potential mortality by natural predators (crocodiles) and by anthropogenic activities (hooks incrusted on their mouths).

Strandings are on the rise on the Southeast coast and there exists a strong regional need for a stranding center. As conservation and education is central to the mission of the SCA, a sea turtle stranding program is a natural fit. Of the 20 strandings to date, 50% of the illnesses have come from unknown causes, 28% have had major trauma and 22% were cold-stunned. Standardized treatments include taking blood for complete blood counts, chemistries, blood cultures and sensitivities, performing radiographs, analyzing fecal samples and removing ectoparasites. Depending on etiology, the animal may be given freshwater baths, fluid therapy, iron supplements, antibiotics and parasite treatments. Recovered turtles are released off the coast of South Carolina.

Within the Biosphere Reserve of Rio Lagartos, at El Cuyo beach, the nesting tendency of both hawksbill and green turtle (Chelonia mydas) was evaluated during three consecutive nesting seasons (2002-2004). Night patrols from mid-April to September allowed the tagging of females and the collection of data on the number of nests, nest location and size of nesting turtles. The hawksbill turtles' average Standard Carapace Curve Length (SCCL) in 2003 and 2004 increased in relation to 2002. There was no difference in the SCCL of green turtles between even years, being smaller in 2003. Hawksbill and green turtles on this beach nested 2 and 2.4 times per season respectively. Both species also showed high nest site fidelity and the average distance between nests was 2.96 and 1.8 km respectively. Nest density maps were created and differences between species and seasons were found. The number of hawksbill turtle nests decreased along seasons, being approximately 40% lower in 2004 than in 2002. For green turtles the number of nests in 2004 was 50% lower than in 2002. Several hypotheses are advanced to explain this decrease in nesting events: The Isidore hurricane (2002) may have destroyed feeding grounds for both species; low hatchling rates 15-20 years ago may have caused low recruitment; in 2004, seismological experiments were conducted near mating areas and this could have caused disorientation and prevention of mating.

Green turtle nest numbers were also lower than expected (930). We believe that the smaller nest numbers may have been due to lower water temperatures in foraging areas prior to the onset of the nesting season. We estimate that the storms and related high winds and water washed out 44% of the loggerhead nests and 85% of the green turtle nests deposited during the 2004.season. Leatherbacks were unaffected by the lower water temperatures, laid a total of 12 nests and emerged prior to the hurricanes.

This is a natural area for the conservation of flora and fauna on the Pacific coast of Guatemala in the region of Santa Rosa. The objective of the study was to determine the effect of depth and shading on the hatching success of olive ridley turtles by comparing two shade treatments (67.4% shade and no shading) and three depths (25, 35 and 45 cm). During this period, 72 nests of 15 eggs were located in the hatchery and distributed in 36 nests for each treatment. The incubation temperature was monitored to estimate the proportion of each sex. From the 1,080 eggs incubated, 496 hatched: 458 from the shade treatment and 38 from the no shade treatment. There was no significant difference in the hatching success between the three depths (p=0.9564). Under the conditions of the study, the temperature was above the pivotal temperature (29.1C) which would suggest the production of females. For these conditions and in the hatchery of Monterrico, shading has an effect on hatching success. It will be necessary to study a complete season to observe the behavior of the temperature in order to know the tendency of sex production at the beginning.

AN - 20493105; 9188081 AB - The Army Corp of Engineers (ACOE) coastal dredging program has included sea turtle relocation trawling for selected projects since the early 1980s. Relocation trawling has been successful at temporarily displacing turtles in channels in both the Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico during periods when hopper dredging was imminent or ongoing (NMFS NE Biological Opinion F/NER/2003/00302). Net design, protocols and trawling techniques were developed by the ACOE after considerable research and development efforts. These methods have become standard for ACOE dredging projects where project managers need to reduce the potential for incidental takes of sea turtles during the dredging project. Towing two specially designed, 60-foot trawl nets, the trawlers operate in the same vicinity as the dredge on either a twelve- or twenty-four hour schedule. Captured turtles are measured, photographed and scanned for PIT tags and overall health. Turtles are tagged and released 3-5 miles away from the channel. Since September 2001, REMSA, Inc. personnel have completed thirteen trawling projects capturing and safely relocating 232 sea turtles. During the same period, a total of 13 turtles were taken by dredges involved in these projects. Because levels of effort on relocation trawling projects vary greatly, REMSA has developed a series of "levels" to distinguish between the amounts of effort applied. Results indicate that effectiveness of the trawling project itself varies widely with the level of trawling effort applied. The results are encouraging, demonstrating that Sea Turtle Relocation trawling may be effective in minimizing the impact of dredging on sea turtle populations.

Solutions for preventing the incidental take of sea turtles need to be identified, developed and implemented. It is not known by what mechanisms pelagic loggerheads find longline gear and become captured through entanglement with the lines or the ingestion of baited hooks. Turtles of all sizes and ages fall prey to sharks. It is not known whether sea turtles actively avoid sharks through some form of recognition and avoidance or whether turtle/shark encounters are simply random acts and the fate of the turtle rests with the shark. If sea turtles can recognize the threat of a shark and then actively avoid sharks in the wild, then maybe some attributes of the "shark" shape can be incorporated into/onto longline gear to deter sea turtles. Preliminary field studies indicate captive reared juvenile loggerheads displayed an avoidance behavior when exposed to fiberglass shark replicas. In this study, we quantify the innate response of captive reared loggerhead sea turtles to shark decoys and attempt to identify the shark characteristics most repulsive to sea turtles.

Knowledge of C. mydas feeding ecology comes mainly from studies of near-shore benthic foraging habitats (Mortimer 1982, Seminoff et al. 2002, Balazs and Chaloupka 2004). Studying the foraging ecology of oceanic turtles is a developing research; however, wild C. mydas are rarely encountered in the open ocean so little is known about them during this stage. A total of 10 oceanic stage green turtles were obtained as by-catch mortalities in pelagic fisheries. Four of these were collected during 1990-1992 in the high seas driftnet fishery and six others were collected during 2000-2004 in the Hawaii-based longline fishery. The distribution of these turtles ranged in area between 5.6 N to 33 N latitude and 159 E to 154 W longitude. One dead stranded turtle was collected in Alaska by the NOAA-NMFS Auke Bay Laboratory (58.4 N, 134.7 W). The size distribution for the green turtles ranged from 30-70 cm curved carapace length. Out of the eleven C. mydas specimens, haplotypes were determined for a total of four turtles, five could not be determined and two specimens are under analysis. One of four driftnet-captured turtles had a common Hawaiian haplotype (LeRoux et al. 2003), while two of six longline-captured turtles had Eastern Pacific haplotypes (Dutton et al. 2000). A third turtle of six longline-captured specimens had a haplotype shared between Hawaii and the Eastern Pacific with morphological characteristics similar to Eastern Pacific green turtles. For samples where DNA amplification was not possible, two turtles (including the Alaskan turtle) had morphological characteristics similar to Eastern Pacific greens and two had Hawaiian-type morphology.

In the North Pacific they lay eggs only in Japan. The population of loggerhead turtles is decreasing dramatically for reasons such as marine pollution, seashore destruction, incidental capture, by-catch, etc. The progress of research on the ecology and life cycle of loggerhead turtles (Caretta caretta) in the North Pacific is especially remarkable. However, in the study of the turtles' ecology there are few studies on feeding ecology. This must be remedied in the near future. We have acquired the stomachs of six individuals stranded ashore on the coast of Chubu, Japan and three individuals captured as by-catch and analyzed the major faunal components. The loggerhead turtles used for this study had mean SCL 839 mm (max 926 mm, min 734 mm). In the stomach content analysis squid, seaweed, fishes, etc. were found. The feeding habits of loggerhead turtles that this study reveals differ from previously known ocean feeding habits.

However, the precise features of the Earth's magnetic field that turtles use have not been determined. Turtles can detect the intensity (strength) of the field and the inclination angle (angle between the field lines and the Earth's surface). Because both intensity and inclination vary predictably across the surface of the Earth, turtles might use either or both in their magnetic map. To investigate the organization of the map, juvenile green turtles captured in their feeding grounds were tethered inside a large magnetic coil system and exposed to one of two magnetic fields. One group was exposed to a field that exists north of the test site. The second group was exposed to a field that does not exist in nature; this field paired the intensity of the northern site with an inclination angle from the south. Turtles exposed to the first field oriented southward as if navigating to their feeding site, whereas turtles exposed to the second field oriented randomly. These results imply that turtles do not rely exclusively on magnetic field intensity, because if they did, then turtles tested in the second field should have oriented south. Similarly, turtles do not rely on inclination alone, because if they did, then the second field should have elicited northward orientation. Instead, the results imply that both inclination and intensity play important roles in the ability of turtles to determine geographic position.

This disease, characterized by the proliferation of highly debilitating benign tumors, has reached almost epidemic proportions worldwide, primarily affecting juvenile turtles. Although a viral agent has been suggested, the etiology of this disease is as yet uncertain and is likely multifactorial in nature. Studies have shown an association between fibropapillomatosis and juvenile developmental habitats in areas of high anthropogenic disturbance. In addition, turtles in these disturbed areas, even those without visible tumors, have been shown to be chronically stressed and immunosuppressed. Recently, there has been considerable interest in the identification of molecular markers indicative of both general and specific stressors in a wide variety of aquatic and terrestrial organisms. One group of such potential markers, the heat shock or stress proteins, are expressed in response to a wide variety of environmental and physiological stressors, including viral infections and tumors. This study examines stress protein expression in both healthy and fibropapilloma afflicted green (Chelonia mydas) and loggerhead (Caretta carettd) turtles from a highly stressed environment (Indian River Lagoon, FL) and compares this response to that of individuals from more pristine offshore reef environments.

While chemical and other cues play a role in luring the animals to the hooked lines, visual cues likely also play a significant role. Because marine visual systems differ, it may be possible in certain cases for an object to be visible to one species yet invisible to another. The current study had two goals: 1) to design fishing gear that was invisible to all species and 2) to design lures on this gear that were visible to billfish but visually undetectable by sea turtles. Using measured profiles of the optical parameters of oceanic and coastal waters and radiative transfer software, the underwater light field was modeled at a number of depths. These light fields were then used to calculate the reflectance spectra (i.e. color) of perfectly cryptic objects as a function of depth and orientation. After these reflectances were determined, they were adjusted to increase their visibility to billfish while minimizing their visibility to sea turtles. Given current data on the spectral sensitivity of sea turtles and billfish, it appears that the most successful strategy is to increase the reflectance at violet and ultraviolet wavelengths. Additional strategies, using striped and flashing lures, which attempt to capitalize on differing spatial and temporal sensitivities of turtles and billfish, were investigated. While the similarities between billfish and turtle visual systems were problematic, the calculations still resulted in predictions that should be tested.

In this film, you will meet two of these pilots - David Smith and Kevin Roache - who spend their time off from their day jobs to fly in Central America for LightHawk, a conservation aviation organization. Each spring, David Smith flies aerial surveys with marine biologist, Sebastian Troeng, in his Cessna 185 to count the tracks of nesting sea turtles along the Caribbean coast. The data collected on these flights convinced the government of Costa Rica to deny Harken Energy's - George W. Bush's old company - request to drill for oil close to the nesting beaches of the world's largest species of sea turtle. Near the Pacific, Kevin Roache, a commercial jetliner pilot, flew a group of indigenous women over the area where the Costa Rican government plans to erect Central America's largest dam. This 260-meter hydroelectric project, would cause an ecological and cultural disaster, flooding an expansive area of lowland tropical rainforest and the homes of the Boruca people under hundreds of feet of water. By putting you in the captain's seat beside these pilots, this film carries you on a fascinating journey, introducing you to people who fly to protect an ecologically rich corner of the planet. This film celebrates their belief that each of us can make a difference.

This study determined if PFCs could modulate sea turtle health parameters. Blood samples were collected from 67 free-ranging juvenile loggerhead and 5 Kemp's ridley turtles from the North Carolina to Florida coasts between May 30th and July 27th 2003. PFC concentrations, immune parameters (lymphocyte proliferation and lysozyme activity) and veterinary diagnostic endpoints were measured. In the loggerhead sea turtles, T-cell proliferation correlated positively with perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS), perfluorohexanesulfonate (PFHxS), perfluorododecanoic acid (PFDoA) and total PFCs. In the Kemp's ridley sea turtles, B-cell proliferation correlated positively with PFOS, PFHxS and total PFCs, while T-cell proliferation correlated positively with PFDoA and negatively with perfluorononanoic acid. Hematology and plasma chemistries were measured in 22 of the loggerhead sea turtles and packed cell volume (PCV), total plasma protein and blood glucose were measured in the 5 Kemp's ridley sea turtles. In loggerhead turtles, significant positive correlations with aspartate aminotransferase (AST), globulin, glucose, potassium, total protein and urea nitrogen were observed with most all individual compounds and also total PFCs. In the Kemp's ridley turtles, significant positive correlations were seen with glucose, PCV and total protein. These data suggest that even low levels of PFCs (106 ng/mL) may alter biomarkers of health in sea turtles and that further efforts should be made to assess health and risk of sea turtles in relationship to these compounds.

The sum of our work is this interactive DVD containing GIS data, satellite tracking information, still photographs, extensive interviews and a 26-minute video about the loggerhead and other marine turtle species and the people who are devoting their lives to their protection and conservation. Special video segments include: The Song "Coldwater" Written and performed by Damien Rice o 2003 Damien Rice The song accompanies a special segment on marine turtle rehabilitation. Arribada video segment - Historical footage by Andres Herrera of Kemp's Ridley sea turtles (estimated 40,000) nesting in 1947 at Rancho Nuevo in Tamaulipas, Mexico. Journey of the Loggerhead is a multimedia exploration of the life of the loggerhead sea turtle (Caretta caretta). This interactive DVD is designed to help build an understanding of the connections between humans and marine turtles. Environmental Media hopes that this interactive program will help educate and inform conservation organizations, research professionals, teachers and general audiences of this critical situation. Journey of the Loggerhead has multiple uses for a variety of audiences. The DVD includes information about marine turtle life cycles, threats, innovative research, international conservation efforts, rehabilitation facilities and practices, volunteer programs, long distance migrations and the global connections between loggerheads and humans.

In 2004 the GT found a new administrative home in San Diego based Pro Peninsula, a non-profit organization dedicated to empowering communities to protect their environment. Each year the GT network and the community it reaches continue to grow, encompassing the Californias and more recently, mainland Mexico. This presentation sheds light on the GT network's model over the past seven years as well as Pro Peninsula's community based conservation efforts and the use of the following strategies towards sea turtle conservation: focusing and facilitating international support; utilization of support networks to assist local community efforts; leveraging local, national and international media; building win-win relationships with government entities; improving and facilitating academic interaction with communities; creating venues for information exchange and knowledge building. Through use of these strategies as well as other "non-traditional" conservation approaches, the GT network has become an increasingly effective vehicle for research, community outreach and capacity building, even as it grows and gains momentum. Lessons learned along the way provide valuable insight to other conservation efforts around the globe.

Documented incidental takes of loggerhead, green and Kemps ridley sea turtles have occurred during dredging since 1980 in 38 coastal channels from the Texas-Mexico border through New York. Over the past 24 years, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and dredging industry have worked to develop protocols, operational methods and modified dredging equipment to reduce dredging impacts to sea turtles. The success of these protection efforts is illustrated in the reductions in incidental takes compared to the increasing number of dredged channels monitored.

Behind a facade of laws and governmental decrees there is an informal system of unwritten agreements known as the Donation System which, though very weak, affords the sea turtle the only degree of protection it gets in Guatemala. Under this system initiated in the early 1980s, an egg collector is given the "legal" right to sell and market a nest of eggs as long as he/she donates one dozen eggs of that nest to a hatchery. The Donation System strives but falls far short of setting up a system for the sustainable use of sea turtle eggs. ARCAS, in its sea turtle conservation activities in the Hawaii area of the Pacific coast of Guatemala has over the last 8 years tried to complement donations from egg collectors to its hatcheries with eggs collected by a variety of other methods, including whole nests found or bought by international volunteers and egg collecting competitions held in area schools. In the 16kms of coastline that it covers, ARCAS has managed to increase the amount of eggs rescued from traffickers from roughly 3% to 20% of those being laid. This study looks at the strengths and limitations of the Donation System, the socio-economic impact of sea turtle egg trading on the local and national economy and ways to increase sea turtle egg collection in other parts of Guatemala and the world.

The number of FLSTSSN observers and number of coastal counties monitored increased during the early to mid 1980s, but both have remained relatively consistent since the late 1980s. From 1980-2003, observers documented almost 23,000 stranded sea turtles, of which 5,677 were green turtles (Chelonia mydas). The activities of the FLSTSSN during this time period were coordinated by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission's Fish and Wildlife Research Institute (FWRI). FLSTSSN observers documented stranded sea turtles using a standardized data collection methodology and FWRI staff provided periodic guidance and training to ensure that data were consistently collected according to this methodology and therefore were accurate. All FLSTSSN data reporting forms were reviewed and edited by FWRI staff. Photographs were often submitted and used to verify the presence or absence of fibropapilloma-like tumors. A green turtle was determined to have fibropapillomatosis (FP) when at least one verrucose tumor was present. From 1980 to 1999, FP was documented only in stranded green turtles that were found in southeastern and southwestern Florida (south of 29 latitude). However, during 2000-2003, 14 stranded green turtles with FP were found in northeastern (Nassau, Flagler and Volusia counties) and northwestern (Gulf, Franklin and Wakulla counties) Florida (all north of 29 latitude), where FP had not been previously documented. These recent discoveries suggest that FP may now be affecting green turtle populations throughout Florida.

Since it opened in 1991, Zoomarine, located in southern Portugal (Europe), began to physically respond to live strandings of marine species. The majority of the events were related to sea turtles mainly Caretta caretta and Chelonia mydas. Whenever possible, these specimens are rescued, rehabilitated and reintroduced back to the Atlantic Ocean, after undergoing rehabilitation periods which vary between a few weeks to several months. Zoomarine and ICN (Institute for the Preservation of Nature - Portuguese authorities) celebrated an Agreement of Understanding which establishes our park as the only official rehabilitation centre for sea turtles in the Portuguese continental territory. Under such Agreement, Zoomarine opened in 2002, Porto d'Abrigo, our Rehabilitation Centre for Marine Species.

During the nesting season (May-October), the main nesting sites were patrolled resulting in a 90% tagging efficiency. In 2004 the first nesting event of a green turtle with a living tag was reported. The animal measured 98.7cm curved carapace length (CCL). The living tag was located on the third right costal scute corresponding with 1991 season and was released a year after hatching. The animal was tagged with the plate J3630 and measured 28cm CCL at the time of release. The nesting process and both tags were documented with photos. The finding, the living tag program and the nesting females' importance for the Sea Turtle Sanctuary X'cacel-X'cacelito are discussed.

However, a few studies have examined the reproduction of females outside of this range. The present study compares the reproduction of females less than 60 cm to those greater than 70 cm. In this study we compare the number of eggs, hatch success and the incubation results (i.e. mortality) in the three different phases of the embryonic development. Nests from 50 large and 50 small olive ridleys were transferred to a protected place for incubation. Nests hatch between the 44th and 59th day of incubation. There were a total of 4,771 eggs from the small females (average 95.4 eggs/nest), which produced a total of 3,706 fry (74% hatching success). The large females' had an average of 104.7 eggs/nest for a total of 5,234 eggs, but had a lower hatching success (66%). A total of 924 eggs from the large females died during development (18%, 15% during phase III of development), while in the smaller females the percentage was 9%. The larger females had the highest percentage of eggs without apparent embryonic development, considered infertile, with an equivalent total of 762 eggs (15%), against 5% for the smaller females.

One major objective is to determine relationships between the study groups and other green turtle breeding and foraging populations. Notably, aspects of intra-population genetic structure will also be examined. The research focuses on population structure as revealed by nuclear microsatellites and the mitochondrial DNA control region. The significance of the study derives from unique insight into dispersal and migration, temporal and spatial patterns of genetic variation, relationships between genetic composition and key demographic factors and conservation priorities. This information enhances basic biological knowledge of marine vertebrate population structure with applications to marine species worldwide.

Also, their bones, carapaces, skulls, fats, oils and blood were used for culturally medicinal practices that include black magic or voodoo. In addition to being hunted, accidental captures also played an integral role in the drastic decline of global populations. The purpose of this study was to assess the interactions between sea turtles and the commercial fishing industry of the US Virgin Islands, particularly with fishing gear. I interviewed 70 fishermen on St. Croix and 45 on St. Thomas to analyze sea turtle-to-fishing gear interaction frequency and to further analyze interaction as associated with fishing gear, sea turtle species and location. Also, ten years (1994-2003) of what was considered "fishery-related" stranding data were analyzed. 56% of the fishers interviewed on St. Croix and 47% of those interviewed on St. Thomas reported never having any sea turtles interact with their fishing gear. Only 11% and 18% of the surveyed fishers on St. Croix and St. Thomas, respectively, reported frequent interactions (two or more per year). For both islands, all but one of the net fishers had interactions between sea turtles and their gear. Between 1994 and 2003, there were 64 fishery-related sea turtle strandings reported. More fishery-related strandings were reported for St. Croix than for any other island (36). Boat related injuries accounted for 31 of those strandings reported.

Seven indicators of reproductive success were compared among the beaches and among three zones (defined as a function of the proximity to the high tide or the vegetation lines) per beach. There were significant differences between zones for percentage survival and for eggs without embryos; among beaches there were differences for predation levels. The incubation period did not show significant differences except for zone A in Perjuicio beach, where sample size problems could have been the cause. The mean values and confidence intervals for egg number, anomalies and embryo death were presented, with no differences found among treatments. There were significant differences among zones for some indicators of survival, with the A zone having the lowest survival rate and the highest percentage of eggs without embryos. Together with the fact that the smallest number of nests occurred in the A zone, this indicates that green turtles, as a species, have developed toward the selection of those areas that guarantee the most appropriate conditions for reproductive success when choosing a nesting spot.

It is necessary to calculate growth rates in different areas and populations because it can be influenced by both environmental and genetic factors. Unfortunately, the growth rate of Caretta caretta is not available for the Mediterranean. We provide for the first time growth rate estimations for two different size classes using two different approaches. Size distribution of 76 turtles ranging from 8 to 20 cm curved carapace length (CCL) was used to provide indication of growth rate pattern in this range, under the assumption that the turtles were 0-2 years old and considering arbitrary hatching date and size on the basis of data from the region. The resulting mean growth rate was 9.3 cm/yr, but great variability appears to occur in the first months of life, certainly in part due to the arbitrary hatching date assigned to all the specimens but possibly also a consequence of environmental variability to which post-hatching turtles may be particularly sensible. However, in older specimens growth rates appear much less variable and decrease linearly with increasing size and especially with presumed age. For comparison, growth rate calculated from six turtles stranded in the Azores ranging in size from 9.1-10.8 cm CCL (corresponding to a mean size of about 7 cm) was 12.0 cm/yr (Bjorndal et al, 2000).

Hatchling turtles entering the sea for the first time immediately establish courses toward the open ocean and steadfastly maintain them after swimming beyond sight of land. As the turtles mature, they often follow complex migratory pathways across vast distances that sometimes span entire ocean basins. Older turtles take up residence in feeding grounds but periodically migrate long distances to particular mating and nesting sites. How sea turtles guide themselves across vast expanses of seemingly featureless ocean remained an enduring mystery for many years. During the past decade, however, research has revealed that the remarkable navigational skills of sea turtles are based at least partly on several unusual and previously unknown sensory abilities. Among these are the ability to perceive the direction of ocean waves by monitoring underwater acceleration sequences and an ability to approximate geographic position by using the Earth's magnetic field as a kind of navigational map.

This approach to bycatch reduction is, however, not readily exportable to foreign fishing nations. The distributions of turtles and targeted fish species often overlap, so time-area closures are unlikely to be simultaneously effective at reducing turtle-fishing gear interactions and acceptable to the fishery. A more effective strategy is the development of techniques and gear modifications that reduce the incidence or severity of interactions to acceptable levels but that maintain economically viable catch rates of targeted fish species. In order for any approach to reduce sea turtle bycatch globally, it must be: relatively inexpensive, readily available, easy to use and easy to enforce. Ideally, it should also not require direct effort on the part of fishers. Defining and exploiting differences in sea turtle and fish sensory physiology (either vision, hearing or olfaction) is one possible approach. An international collaborative investigation is currently underway to do just this. The projects are intended to characterize vision, hearing, olfaction and gustation in sea turtles so that a comprehensive assessment of potential sensory attractants and repellants may be made. The immediate objective is to define specific and exploitable differences in the sensory capabilities of turtles, tunas and billfishes. The overall objective is development of devices or techniques that make fishing gear repulsive (or at least less attractive) to sea turtles but that are undetectable by the targeted fish species.

In 2003, the Sea Turtle Association of Japan personally examined 258 such beaches where nesting or emergence occurred. The most concentrated region for nesting was the southern part of Kyushu, including Yakushima and Tanegashima Island. Seventy-three percent of the total nests examined in 2003 were found on beaches in Kagoshima and Miyazaki Prefectures, which are also in the southern part of Kyushu. Shizuoka Prefecture, located in the middle of Honshu, also had beaches where a relatively large number of loggerhead turtles nested. There are some beaches in Japan where volunteers have been conducting research for many years. In 1950 and again in 1954 at Hiwasa and Kamouda beach, two beaches located on the east coast of Shikoku, the junior high school and elementary school started a diary counting the number of turtle tracks on the beaches left after emergence. When the local schools stopped keeping a diary, the town and city offices continued recording up to the present day. Counting of emergences and nestings also started on the beaches of Kuroshima Island, Miyazaki and Omaezaki in the 1970s and in the 1980s on Nagata beach on Yakushima Island and Minabe on the Kii Peninsula.

Union Creek is a foraging area for immature green turtles and hawksbills and is one of the few places in the Bahamas where green turtles have been protected from human exploitation over the past three decades. From mtDNA sequence analyses, we know that the green turtle foraging aggregation represents a mixed stock with source rookeries throughout the Atlantic. Based on a combination of flipper tag returns and satellite telemetry, we know that when green turtles leave Union Creek, they move throughout the Greater Caribbean. Recapture records of individual green turtles in Union Creek, spanning up to 15 years, have allowed estimation of survival and emigration probabilities, as well as estimation of abundance and population trends. I will emphasize results from our study that are only possible from a long-term study including individual-based growth models, density-dependent effects, temporal variation in source rookeries and population trends. In particular, I will discuss the complexities of evaluating regional trends in abundance of immature sea turtles revealed during a recent analysis integrating trend data from Union Creek with trend data for green turtles nesting at Tortuguero, the primary source rookery for Union Creek green turtles.

Managers and decision makers must often consider results of multiple quantitative and qualitative models in developing these large-scale multispecies management strategies. We present a scenario-based decision support system to evaluate watershed-scale management plans for multiple species of Pacific salmon in the Lewis River watershed in southwestern Washington, USA. We identified six aquatic restoration management strategies either described in the literature or in common use for watershed recovery planning. For each of the six strategies, actions were identified and their effect on the landscape was estimated. In this way, we created six potential future landscapes, each estimating how the watershed might look under one of the management strategies. We controlled for cost across the six modeled strategies by creating simple economic estimates of the cost of each restoration or protection action and fixing the total allowable cost under each strategy. We then applied a suite of evaluation models to estimate watershed function and habitat condition and to predict biological response to those habitat conditions. The concurrent use of many types of models and our spatially explicit approach enables analysis of the trade-offs among various types of habitat improvements and also among improvements in different areas within the watershed. We report predictions of the quantity, quality, and distribution of aquatic habitat as well as predictions for multiple species of species-specific habitat capacity and survival rates that might result from each of the six management strategies. We use our results to develop four on-the-ground watershed management strategies given alternative social constraints and manager profiles. Our approach provides technical guidance in the study watershed by predicting future impacts of potential strategies, guidance on strategy selection in other watersheds where such detailed analyses have not been completed, and a framework for organizing information and modeled predictions to best manage wide-ranging species.

It is assumed that these uncertainties can be approximated by two independent operational analyses. First, the sensitivity is illustrated using scatter diagrams and is measured in terms of the linear regression of the output from two simulations that differ in either the atmospheric forcing or the soil initialization. The spatial variation of the sensitivity is then investigated and is linked to the dominant low-level flows within the CV. The results from this case study suggest that the WRF-simulated low-level winds in the northern CV [i.e., the Sacramento Valley (SV)] are more sensitive to the uncertainties in the atmospheric forcing than to those in the soil initialization in the typical weather conditions during the summer that are prone to poor air quality in the CV. The simulated low-level winds in the southernmost part of the San Joaquin Valley (SJV) are more sensitive to the uncertainties in the soil initialization than they are in the SV. In the northern SJV, the simulated low-level winds are overall more sensitive to the uncertainties in the large-scale upper-level atmospheric forcing than to those in the soil initialization. This spatial variation in sensitivity reflects the important roles that the large-scale forcing, specified by the lateral boundary conditions and the local forcing associated with the soil state, play in controlling the low-level winds in the CV.

Until the late 1990s, there were no continuous simultaneous measurements of snow water equivalent and snow depth covering large areas. Because of that, spatiotemporal characteristics of snowpack density could not be well described. Since then, the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) has been collecting both types of data daily throughout the winter season at snowpack telemetry (SNOTEL) sites located in the mountainous areas of the western United States. This new dataset provided an opportunity to examine the spatiotemporal characteristics of snowpack density. The analysis of approximately seven years of data showed that at a given location and throughout the winter season, year-to-year snowpack density changes are significantly smaller than corresponding snow depth and snow water equivalent changes. As a result, reliable climatological estimates of snow density could be obtained from relatively short records. Snow density magnitudes and densification rates (i.e., rates at which snow densities change in time) were found to be location dependent. During early and midwinter, the densification rate is correlated with density. Starting in early or mid-March, however, snowpack density increases by approximately 2.0 kg m-3 day-1 regardless of location. Cluster analysis was used to obtain qualitative information on spatial patterns of snowpack density and densification rates. Four clusters were identified, each with a distinct density magnitude and densification rate. The most significant physiographic factor that discriminates between clusters was proximity to a large water body. Within individual mountain ranges, snowpack density characteristics were primarily dependent on elevation.

For meteorological drought, the standardized precipitation index (SPI) is used to measure precipitation deficits. The standardized runoff index (SRI), which is similar to the SPI, is used to classify hydrological drought. Agricultural drought is measured by monthly-mean soil moisture (SM) anomaly percentiles based on probability distributions (PDs). The PDs for total SM are regionally dependent and influenced by the seasonal cycle, but the PDs for SM monthly-mean anomalies are unimodal and Gaussian. Across the eastern United States (east of 95W), the indices derived from VIC and Noah are similar, and they are able to detect the same drought events. Indices are also well correlated. For river forecast centers (RFCs) across the eastern United States, different drought indices are likely to detect the same drought events. The monthly-mean soil moisture (SM) percentiles and runoff indices between VIC and Noah have large differences across the western interior of the United States. For small areas with a horizontal resolution of 0.5 on the time scales of one to three months, the differences of SM percentiles and SRI between VIC and Noah are larger than the thresholds used to classify drought. For the western RFCs, drought events selected according to SM percentiles or SRI derived from different NLDAS systems do not always overlap.

This method takes advantage of the high attenuation of W-band frequency signals in rain and the low variability of nonattenuated reflectivity due to strong non-Rayleigh scattering from rain drops. The retrieval uncertainties could reach 40%-50%. The suggested method is generally applicable to rainfall rates (R) in an approximate range from about 2-3 to about 20-25 mm h-1. Multiple scattering noticeably affects the gradients of CloudSat measurements for R values greater than about 5 mm h-1. To avoid a retrieval bias caused by multiple-scattering effects, a special correction for retrievals is introduced. For rainfall rates greater than about 25 mm h-1, the influence of multiple scattering gets overwhelming, and the retrievals become problematic, especially for rainfalls with higher freezing-level altitudes. The attenuation-based retrieval method was applied to experimental data from CloudSat covering the range of rainfall rates. CloudSat retrievals were compared to the rainfall estimates available from a National Weather Service ground-based scanning precipitation radar operating at S band. Comparisons between spaceborne and conventional radar rainfall retrievals were generally in good agreement and indicated the mutual consistency of both quantitative precipitation estimate types. The suggested CloudSat rainfall retrieval method is immune to the absolute calibration of the radar and to attenuation caused by the melting layer and snow regions. Since it does not require surface returns, it is applicable to measurements above both land and water surfaces.

To help to alleviate this situation, cold pools from 39 mesoscale convective system (MCS) events are sampled using Oklahoma Mesonet surface observations. In total, 1389 time series of surface observations are used to determine typical rises in surface pressure and decreases in temperature, potential temperature, and equivalent potential temperature associated with the cold pool, and the maximum wind speeds in the cold pool. The data are separated into one of four convective system life cycle stages: first storms, MCS initiation, mature MCS, and MCS dissipation. Results indicate that the mean surface pressure rises associated with cold pools increase from 3.2 hPa for the first storms' life cycle stage to 4.5 hPa for the mature MCS stage before dropping to 3.3 hPa for the dissipation stage. In contrast, the mean temperature (potential temperature) deficits associated with cold pools decrease from 9.5 (9.8) to 5.4 K (5.6 K) from the first storms to the dissipation stage, with a decrease of approximately 1 K associated with each advance in the life cycle stage. However, the daytime and early evening observations show mean temperature deficits over 11 K. A comparison of these observed cold pool characteristics with results from idealized numerical simulations of MCSs suggests that observed cold pools likely are stronger than those found in model simulations, particularly when ice processes are neglected in the microphysics parameterization. The mean deficits in equivalent potential temperature also decrease with the MCS life cycle stage, starting at 21.6 K for first storms and dropping to 13.9 K for dissipation. Mean wind gusts are above 15 m s-1 for all life cycle stages. These results should help numerical modelers to determine whether the cold pools in high-resolution models are in reasonable agreement with the observed characteristics found herein. Thunderstorm simulations and forecasts with thin model layers near the surface are also needed to obtain better representations of cold pool surface characteristics that can be compared with observations.

Durante el actual proceso de declaracion de AMP, han surgido algunas preocupaciones acerca de la justificacion cientifica para establecer areas de no pesca, particularmente aquellas que restringen la pesca recreativa de especies pelagicas. Una pregunta importante es bajo que condiciones la pesca pelagica recreativa es compatible con los objetivos de conservacion de un AMP que se enfoca principalmente en comunidades bentonicas? En 2005, un taller de expertos en biologia pesquera, ecologfa marina, manejo de AMP y Pescadores recreativos fue convocado por el Centra Nacional de AMP de la NOAA para evaluar los pocos datos empiricos del acoplamiento entre los sistemas pelagico y bentonico, y ofrecer asesoria practica sobre el tema. Los participantes (i) propusieron un marco conceptual preliminar para abordar el tema de la zonacion vertical, (ii) desarrollar directrices preliminares para que cuando se haga una evaluation si se permite o restringe la pesca pelagica dentro de la AMP, y (iii) identificar futuras lineas de investigation para comprender mejor el acoplamiento entre el bentos y el sistema pelagico. Se identifico una serie de condiciones ecologicas en las que la pesca recreativa pelagica puede no ser compatible con la conservacion del bentos: (1) habitat de alto relieve, (2) profundidades menores a 50 m-100 m (dependiendo de la zona), (3) caracteristicas oceanograficas y topograficas sobresalientes, y (4) areas de desove. De igual forma, bajo varias circunstancias, la pesca pelagica puede no afectar las comunidades bentonicas. Hasta que los estudios cientificos brinden mas information acerca de como las relaciones entre el bentos y el ambiente pelagico afectan los objetivos especificos de la conservacion, el contexto propuesto en este trabajo provee una guia practica y de facil aplicacion para utilizar la zonacion vertical en el manejo pesquero en varios aspectos de las AMP que se enfocan en la conservacion del bentos.

This study focuses on application of satellite microwave images to estimate the spatial distribution of snow depth and SWE over the Great Lakes area. To estimate SWE, we have proposed the algorithm which uses microwave brightness temperatures (Tb) measured by the Special Sensor Microwave Imager (SSM/I) radiometer along with information on the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI).The algorithm was developed and tested over 19 test sites characterized by different seasonal average snow depth and land cover type. Three spectral signatures derived from SSM/I data, namely T19V-T37V (GTV), T19H-T37H (GTH), and T22V-T85V (SSI), were examined for correlation with the snow depth and SWE. To avoid melting snow conditions, we have used observations taken only during the period from December 1-February 28. It was found that GTH, and GTV exhibit similar correlation with the snow depth/SWE and are most should be used over deep snowpack. In the same time, SSI is more sensitive to snow depth variations over a shallow snow pack. To account for the effect of dense forests on the scattering signal of snow we established the slope of the regression line between GTV and the snow depth as a function of NDVI. The accuracy of the new technique was evaluated through its comparison with ground-based measurements and with results of SWE analysis prepared by the National Operational Hydrological Remote Sensing Center (NOHRSC) of the National Weather Service. The proposed algorithm was found to be superior to previously developed global microwave SWE retrieval techniques.

The best management practice of choice for stormwater in this region is wet detention ponds, the majority of which are brackish lagoons. Typically, stormwater is piped directly into the ponds, but ponds have limited capacity for processing pollutants. These eutrophic brackish ponds are ''hot spots'' for harmful algal blooms (HABs)-over 200 blooms from 23 different species were documented over the last 4 years, many associated with measured toxins, fish kills or shellfish health problems. Because these ponds exchange with tidal creeks, they are potential sources for HAB dispersion into adjacent estuaries. Also, flux measurements indicated that groundwater was both a source of nutrients to the ponds and a mechanism for transporting nutrients from the ponds. These findings suggest that manmade ponds as presently designed along the SC coast may contribute to estuarine eutrophication and HAB prevalence. A summary of HAB occurrences in SC lagoonal ponds from 2001 to 2005 is presented, and a project is described that simulates the effectiveness of constructed wetlands as a supplementary best management practice designed to process stormwater and groundwater and remove nutrients prior to entering wet detention ponds.

We demonstrate proof of concept with IgG antibodies. In ES-DMA, aqueous solutions of the antibody protein are electrosprayed and the various aerosolized species are separated according to their electrophoretic mobility using a differential mobility analyzer. In this way, complete size distributions of protein species present from 3 to 250 nm can be obtained with the current set up, including distinct peaks for IgG monomers to pentamers. The sizes of the IgG and IgG aggregates measured by DMA were found to be in good agreement with those calculated from simple models, which take the structural dimensions of IgG from protein crystallographic data. The dependence of IgG aggregation on the solution concentration and ionic strength was also examined, and the portion of aggregates containing chemically crosslinked antibodies was quantified. These results indicate that ES-DMA holds potential as a measurement tool to study protein aggregation phenomena such as those associated with antibody reagent manufacturing and protein therapeutics.

In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that crustaceans with prior or ongoing exposure to bacteria in their hemolymph have an increased susceptibility to subsequent infections, and that acute exposure to low dissolved oxygen (hypoxia) and elevated carbon dioxide levels (hypercapnia) may further confound the ability of blue crabs to counter a subsequent infection. Adult male blue crabs held in well-aerated (normoxic; P sub(O) sub(2)=20.7kPa; CO sub(2)<0.06kPa; pH 7.8-8.0) or hypercapnic hypoxic (HH; P sub(O) sub(2)=4kPa; CO sub(2)=1.8kPa; pH 6.9-7.2) seawater received an injection (pre-challenge dose) of 1x10 super(5)Vibrio campbellii g super(-) super(1) crab. Control animals were injected with an equivalent dose of HEPES-buffered saline (1klg super(-) super(1) crab). At 2h or 24h after the pre-challenge injection, both Vibrio and saline-pre-challenged animals were injected with a dose of live V. campbellii (1x10 super(5)g super(-) super(1) crab). This second injection will be referred to as a second injection or challenge injection. Degradation in or physical removal of intact bacteria from hemolymph was quantified using real-time PCR; bacteriostasis was quantified as the percentage of intact bacteria that could not be recovered by selective plating. We demonstrated that bacteriostasis occurs in the hemolymph of blue crabs. Furthermore, blue crabs that received a challenge injection 2h after a pre-challenge dose of V. campbellii cleared culturable bacteria from their hemolymph more rapidly when compared to animals that received a pre-challenge dose of saline. This enhanced clearance of culturable bacteria was associated with an increase in antibacterial activity in the cell-free hemolymph. However, the enhanced clearance of culturable bacteria disappeared when the time interval between the pre-challenge and challenge dose was extended to 24h and when crabs were held in HH seawater throughout the experiment. Neither the time interval between the pre-challenge and the challenge dose nor exposure to HH altered the pattern of intact bacterial clearance in blue crabs. These results demonstrate that prior exposure to bacteria does not increase the susceptibility of C. sapidus to a second, sublethal dose of V. campbellii. In fact, a recent exposure to V. campbellii enhances the ability of blue crabs to render bacteria non-culturable and the immune mechanisms/effectors responsible for this are short lived and appear to be sensitive to low dissolved oxygen and high carbon dioxide concentrations in the environment.

Cloud-top ice effective radius values of these pyroCbs are significantly smaller than are those within surrounding convection. The smoke provides a massive source of cloud condensation nuclei (CCN), resulting in smaller cloud droplets which freeze homogeneously at temperatures around -40 deg C and produce very small ice crystals. It is also shown that the pyroCb anvils persist 6 - 12 hours longer than convectively-generated cirrus anvils from nearby convection. This provides evidence for the so-called cloud lifetime effect, an aerosol indirect effect identified by the most recent Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report.

This assessment evaluates three components for each estuary: the influencing factors (e.g. land use, nutrient loads), the overall eutrophic condition (e.g. chlorophyll a, presence of nuisance/toxic algae and macroalgae, extent of dissolved oxygen problems, loss of submerged aquatic vegetation), and future outlook. Eutrophication is a widespread problem with 65% of assessed systems showing moderate to high level problems. The most impacted region was the mid-Atlantic. The majority of estuaries assessed, with the exception of North Atlantic systems (Cape Cod north to Maine), are highly influenced by human related activities that contribute to land-based nutrient loads. Conditions were predicted to worsen in 65% and to improve in 19% of the assessed estuaries in the future. Analysis of the extent of change from the early 1990s to the early 2000s, for those systems for which sufficient data were available, shows that conditions mostly remained the same (32 of 58 systems) though changes were observed in several smaller systems; 13 systems improved and 13 systems worsened. Chlorophyll a and HAB impacts have increased in the mid-Atlantic region, the only region with data adequate for comparison. These symptoms are more prevalent in systems with longer residence times, such as coastal lagoons. The successful restoration of seagrass in Tampa Bay is encouraging though future management to sustain the recovery will be difficult given expected population increases.

Several studies have investigated the effects of known organic compounds on phytoplankton growth, however, the role of natural dissolved organic matter (DOM) in phytoplankton nutrition remains understudied at the compound level. This lack of research is due in part to analytical limitations for the characterization of DOM compounds. Electrospray ionization (ESI) mass spectrometry (MS) provides an unprecedented level of chemical information on thousands of organic compounds that comprise the bulk DOM pool. In this paper we provide a brief overview of some of the benefits and caveats of using ESI to investigate DOM in natural freshwater and marine systems and show an example of ESI-MS DOM characterization for a natural bloom of the raphidophyte Chattonella cf. verruculosa.

AN - 19897657; 8821427 AB - Molecular genetic data have found widespread application in the identification of population and conservation units for aquatic species. However, integration of genetic information into actual management has been slow, and explicit and quantitative inclusion of genetic data into fisheries models is rare. In part, this reflects the inherent difficulty in using genetic markers to draw inferences about demographic independence, which is generally the information of the greatest short-term interest to fishery managers. However, practical management constraints, institutional structures and communication issues have also contributed to the lack of integration. This paper identifies some of the organizational, conceptual and technical barriers that have hampered full use of genetics data in stock assessment and hence fishery management and outlines how such use could be enhanced.

We focused on non-perched crossings, which did not present a physical barrier to fish movement. With the exception of species richness, all response variables (fish population size, species diversity, fish index of biotic integrity, and conditional percentage of movement) did not vary significantly with crossing type, position (upstream and downstream), or month. Streams with arch culverts contained significantly higher species richness than streams with bridges. The general lack of stream fish abundance and diversity responses to road crossings may be due to the insensitivity of stream fish community variables to anthropogenic effects, the insensitivity of fish communities to the presence of crossings, the overall resilience of fish communities, or the shifting baseline theory (fish communities having shifted to a different community prior to sampling). Triple-pass electrofishing results suggest that these road crossings had no detectable effect on fish abundance or diversity.

Biofilms composed of indigenous water system bacteria were accumulated on copper and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipe material surfaces in a low-flow pipe loop and uniformly mixed tank reactor (CDC biofilm reactor). Application of a distributed shear during spore contact resulted in approximately a 1.0 and 1.6 log sub(1) sub(0) increase in the number of spores associated with copper and PVC surfaces, respectively. Decontamination of spores in both free suspension and after association with biofilm-conditioned pipe materials was attempted using free chlorine and monochloramine. Associated spores required 5- to 10-fold higher disinfectant concentrations to observe the same reduction of viable spores as in suspension. High disinfectant concentrations (103 mg/L free chlorine and 49 mg/L monochloramine) yielded less than a 2-log sub(1) sub(0) reduction in viable associated spores after 60 min. Spores associated with biofilms on copper surfaces consistently yielded higher Ct values than PVC.

These factors were studied in the Houston-Galveston-Gulf of Mexico region, aboard the NOAA R/V during the Texas Air Quality Study and Gulf of Mexico Atmospheric Composition and Climate Study (TexAQS/GoMACCS 2006). The aerosol measured in the Gulf of Mexico during onshore flow (low radon concentrations indicating no contact with land for several days) was highly impacted by Saharan dust and what appear to be ship emissions (acidic sulfate and nitrate). Mean (median) mass concentrations of the total submicrometer and supermicrometer aerosol were 6.5 (4.6) g m-3 and 17.2 (8.7) g m-3, respectively. These mass loadings of "background" aerosol are much higher than typically observed in the marine atmosphere and thus have a substantial impact on the radiative energy balance over the Gulf of Mexico and particulate matter (PM) loadings (air quality) in the Houston-Galveston area. As this background aerosol moved onshore, local urban and industrial sources added an organic rich submicrometer component (66% particulate organic matter (POM), 20% sulfate, 14% elemental carbon) but no significant supermicrometer aerosol. The resulting aerosol had mean (median) mass concentrations of the total submicrometer and supermicrometer aerosol of 10.0 (9.1) g m-3 and 16.8 (11.2) g m-3, respectively. These air masses, with minimal processing of urban emissions contained the highest SO2/(SO2 + SO4=) ratios and the highest hydrocarbon-like organic aerosol to total organic aerosol ratios (HOA/POM). In contrast, during periods of offshore flow, the aerosol was more processed and, therefore, much richer in oxygenated organic aerosol (OOA). Mean (median) mass concentrations of the total submicrometer and supermicrometer aerosol were 20.8 (18.6) g m-3 and 7.4 (5.0) g m-3, respectively. Sorting air masses based on their trajectories and time over land provides a means to examine the effects of transport and subsequent chemical processing. Understanding and parameterizing these processes is critical for the chemical transport modeling that forms the basis for air quality forecasts and radiative forcing calculations.

Sites were selected to assess known point sources, or were chosen randomly to evaluate the region-wide sources. After deployment, SPMD extracts were analyzed chemically for persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH). These results were compared with hepatic CYP1A enzyme activity of juvenile rainbow trout injected with the same extracts prior to clean-up for the chemical analyses. Increased CYP1A activity was strongly associated with PAH concentrations in extracts, especially chrysene homologues but was not associated with POPs. The only apparent sources of chrysene homologues were lingering oil from Exxon Valdez, asphalt and bunker fuels released from storage tanks during the 1964 Alaska earthquake, creosote leaching from numerous pilings at one site, and PAH-contaminated sediments at Cordova Harbor. Our results indicate that PWS is remarkably free of pollution from PAH when nearby sources are absent as well as from pesticides and PCBs generally.

In the present study, short-duration neuston net tows in the Straits of Florida yielded 19 live istiophorid billfish larvae, which were immediately placed in a shipboard vertical swimming chamber to measure their vertical movement rates. After swimming trials, larvae were transferred to the laboratory where they were identified to species, classified as to flexion stage and measured for length. Mean vertical swimming speeds of captive larval sailfish (Istiophorus platypterus) and blue marlin (Makaira nigricans) ranged from 1.0 to 7.0 cm s super(-1) or 1.6 to 5.6 body lengths s super(-1). These rates exceed most larval fish sinking rates reported for other species and are comparable to mean larval 'cruising' speeds reported for several temperate freshwater and marine fishes; however, they appear far lower than most swimming speed estimates for reef fish larvae.

However, there is disagreement about (1) how to weight the scores in the different dimensions and (2) how to aggregate the weighted scores over the different dimensions. At the risk of stressing the obvious, changes in weighting and/or aggregation will affect the country rankings. First, we focus on robust rankings, i.e., rankings which hold for a wide set of weighting and/or aggregation procedures. Second, we show that all proposed ranking procedures can be implemented via linear programming techniques. Third, we illustrate how our methodology can prove useful in assessing the robustness of the human development country ranking/classification (produced annually by the United Nations) in a descriptive and statistical way.

A new approach, defining potential sizes and shapes of MPA boundaries early in the design process, is presented in a case study. A sliding window of the same dimensions as potential boundary configurations was regularly shifted throughout the study area and used to quantify variables representing preferred biophysical and socioeconomic characteristics. The technique offers advantages in spatially restricted areas, areas where habitat connectivity is critical, and situations wherein providing stakeholders with an up-front understanding of potential boundaries is required.

The level of agreement between the two techniques with ambient aerosol depended on the abundance of organic aerosol (OA), with the ratio of OA to light absorbing carbon (LAC) mass (ROA-LAC) of particular importance. When OA mass concentration was low the agreement between the methods was within instrumental uncertainties (PSAP measuring 12% higher), however at high (ROA-LAC) (~15-20) the difference in agreement was between 50 and 80%. This difference is similar to the bias observed in the laboratory studies of a companion paper using non-absorbing OA and LAC (Cappa et al. 2008a). It was found that most of the OA was oxidized and non-absorbing in nature. We postulate that the observed differences results from a bias in the filter-based measurements due to (a) the redistribution of liquid-like organic particulate matter (PM) around the fiber filters thereby modifying the filter surface and subsequent light scattering, and (b) the possible coating and absorption enhancement of pre-existing absorbing PM (i.e., soot) as OA deposition and redistribution occurs. We stop short or recommending a universal correction using these findings due to the magnitude of the bias showing some dependence on air mass type. Any use of this data for a correction must consider the uncertainties in measuring OA mass concentrations, LAC mass concentrations and type of OA present. The observed PSAP bias may have a significant impact on the accuracy of aerosol single scatter albedo (SSA) and LAC mass concentrations derived from filter-based aerosol absorption methods from regions impacted by large amounts of OA. Although this study was performed using the PSAP we caution users of other filter-based instrumentation to the possibility of a similar bias in those instruments.

AN - 756825139; 13750-080498_0001 AB - PURPOSE: The establishment of marine zones in the 1,100-square-mile Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary (CINMS), located off Santa Barbara and Venture counties in southern California, is proposed. Marine zones are discrete areas contained within or above a national marine sanctuary that are managed under special regulations differing from those that apply throughout or above the sanctuary as a whole. The newly designated areas would consolidate a comprehensive marine reserve and marine conservation area network originally developed by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the California Department of Fish and Game following a stakeholder process conducted from 1999 through 2002. In 2002, the California Fish and Game Commission supported establishment of a comprehensive network in both state and federal waters of the sanctuary by implementing the state waters portion of the network. Concurrent with this National Marine Sanctuary Program action, NOAA proposes to amend the Pacific Coast Groundfish Fishery Management Plan (FMP) to protect essential fish habitat along the west coast of the United States. This amendment would complement the existing state marine zones by prohibiting the use of bottom contact fishing gear in the federal waters of the proposed zones. The action proposed in the draft EIS of July 2006 and the amendment to the Groundfish FMP, and its associated regulations, would be implemented under a cooperative and coordinated approach. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, which would perpetuate the existing management regime in the CINMS, are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred Alternative (Alternative 1A) would establish a series of marine zones, completing the Channel Islands mariner preserves network by extending the network into federal waters as envisioned by the state's 2002 action and supported by NOAA and the National Park Service. Nine new marine zones would be added, eight of which would be no-take marine reserves and one of which would be a limited-take marine conservation area. A total of 138 square nautical miles would be added as marine reserves and 1.7 square nautical miles as a marine conservation area; these totals include additional state waters zones. In March of 2008, a draft supplement to the final EIS considered environmental impacts associated with the revision of CINMS regulations under the National Marine Sanctuaries Act. Revised regulations would prohibit the following discharges from within or into the sanctuary: 1) discharges from vessels of 300 gross registered tons or more, including cruise ships and oceangoing ships; 2) graywater from cruise ships; and graywater from oceangoing ships with sufficient holding tank capacity to hold graywater while within the Sanctuary. The supplemental EIS also provided definitions for graywater, oceangoing ship, and cruise ship. The modifications proposed in the supplement have been incorporated into this final EIS. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The marine zones would receive intense attention with regard to the preservation of biodiversity and complement an existing network in the Sanctuary established by the state of California in October 2002, implemented in April 2003 under its authorities. As a result, a comprehensive marine reserve and marine conservation area network would be established in the state and federal waters of the sanctuary. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Elimination or restriction of fishing and other exploitative resource extraction from the CINMS and the waters regulated under the groundfish FMP would reduce the economic base of the marine resource extraction operations in the sanctuary.

AN - 15223697; 13750 AB - PURPOSE: The establishment of marine zones in the 1,100-square-mile Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary (CINMS), located off Santa Barbara and Venture counties in southern California, is proposed. Marine zones are discrete areas contained within or above a national marine sanctuary that are managed under special regulations differing from those that apply throughout or above the sanctuary as a whole. The newly designated areas would consolidate a comprehensive marine reserve and marine conservation area network originally developed by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the California Department of Fish and Game following a stakeholder process conducted from 1999 through 2002. In 2002, the California Fish and Game Commission supported establishment of a comprehensive network in both state and federal waters of the sanctuary by implementing the state waters portion of the network. Concurrent with this National Marine Sanctuary Program action, NOAA proposes to amend the Pacific Coast Groundfish Fishery Management Plan (FMP) to protect essential fish habitat along the west coast of the United States. This amendment would complement the existing state marine zones by prohibiting the use of bottom contact fishing gear in the federal waters of the proposed zones. The action proposed in the draft EIS of July 2006 and the amendment to the Groundfish FMP, and its associated regulations, would be implemented under a cooperative and coordinated approach. Five alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, which would perpetuate the existing management regime in the CINMS, are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred Alternative (Alternative 1A) would establish a series of marine zones, completing the Channel Islands mariner preserves network by extending the network into federal waters as envisioned by the state's 2002 action and supported by NOAA and the National Park Service. Nine new marine zones would be added, eight of which would be no-take marine reserves and one of which would be a limited-take marine conservation area. A total of 138 square nautical miles would be added as marine reserves and 1.7 square nautical miles as a marine conservation area; these totals include additional state waters zones. In March of 2008, a draft supplement to the final EIS considered environmental impacts associated with the revision of CINMS regulations under the National Marine Sanctuaries Act. Revised regulations would prohibit the following discharges from within or into the sanctuary: 1) discharges from vessels of 300 gross registered tons or more, including cruise ships and oceangoing ships; 2) graywater from cruise ships; and graywater from oceangoing ships with sufficient holding tank capacity to hold graywater while within the Sanctuary. The supplemental EIS also provided definitions for graywater, oceangoing ship, and cruise ship. The modifications proposed in the supplement have been incorporated into this final EIS. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The marine zones would receive intense attention with regard to the preservation of biodiversity and complement an existing network in the Sanctuary established by the state of California in October 2002, implemented in April 2003 under its authorities. As a result, a comprehensive marine reserve and marine conservation area network would be established in the state and federal waters of the sanctuary. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Elimination or restriction of fishing and other exploitative resource extraction from the CINMS and the waters regulated under the groundfish FMP would reduce the economic base of the marine resource extraction operations in the sanctuary.

Here we report an intercomparison exercise which has evaluated the effectiveness of 1H NMR metabolomics to generate comparable data sets from environmentally derived samples. It focuses on laboratory practice that follows sample collection and metabolite extraction, specifically the final stages of sample preparation, NMR data collection (500, 600, and 800 MHz), data processing, and multivariate analysis. Seven laboratories have participated from the U.S.A., Canada, U.K., and Australia, generating a total of ten data sets. Phase 1 comprised the analysis of synthetic metabolite mixtures, while Phase 2 investigated European flounder (Platichthys flesus) liver extracts from clean and contaminated sites. Overall, the comparability of data sets from the participating laboratories was good. Principal components analyses (PCA) of the individual data sets yielded ten highly similar scores plots for the synthetic mixtures, with a comparable result for the liver extracts. Furthermore, the same metabolic biomarkers that discriminated fish from clean and contaminated sites were discovered by all the laboratories. PCA of the combined data sets showed excellent clustering of the multiple analyses. These results demonstrate that NMR-based metabolomics can generate data that are sufficiently comparable between laboratories to support its continued evaluation for regulatory environmental studies.

[Part 1 of 1] T2 - SOUTHWEST FISHERIES SCIENCE CENTER REPLACEMENT, LOCATED ON UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, SAN DIEGO SCRIPPS INSTITUTE OF OCEANOGRAPHY CAMPUS, LA JOLLA, CALIFORNIA. AN - 876253985; 14470-1_0001 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a replacement facility for the Southwest Fisheries Science Center (SWFSC) Laboratory in La Jolla, California is proposed. The SWFSC is one of six regional fisheries science centers operated by the National Marine Fisheries Service. The laboratory has been in a precarious position on the edge of a 180-foot eroding high coastal bluff since the El Nino winter of 1997-1998. Three of the four existing buildings are within 25 feet of the bluff edge and two of the buildings are in the process of being vacated due to the safety hazard to occupants. The new 124,000-square-foot laboratory would be constructed across La Jolla Shores Drive from its predecessor at the northern end of the campus of Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO), on a 3.3-acre undeveloped parcel leased from the University of California at San Diego (UCSD). The facility would contain seawater aquaria, various laboratories, specimen archives, plus a library, conference rooms and office space for the 283 scientists and support staff working at the existing SWFSC, and up to17 additional staff. An additional 90,000 square feet of parking space would provide 202 parking stalls in an underground garage. The design of the new laboratory would include photovoltaic cells, elaborate water retention systems, recycled materials and green roofs planted with California coastal chaparral, and would be constructed to obtain Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification. If the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) decide to implement the proposed action, construction would start in 2010 and the building would be ready for occupancy in 2012. Employees and operations at SWFSC and at temporary leased offices in the area would be moved into the building, followed by demolition of at-risk Buildings B and C at the existing SWFSC site. Buildings A and D would be turned over to SIO for possible future occupancy by SIO staff currently occupying over-crowded space at the UCSD/SIO campus. Other alternatives considered in this draft EIS include bluff stabilization, on-site and near-site redevelopment, off-site development, leased space, and collocation of SWFSC with other NOAA facilities. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Construction of the new facility would allow the SWFSC to continue its legacy surveys and monitoring programs while incorporating new technologies in the provision of advice on the conservation and management of living marine resources in the California Current, Eastern Tropical Pacific and Antarctic ecosystems. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction of the new facility and demolition of Buildings B and C would generate noise over 2.5-year and six-month periods, respectively. Construction and demolition activities would also generate noticeable vibrations at nearby academic buildings and residences and could require temporary restrictions on use of local roads. Construction-period emissions would release substantial amounts of nitrogen oxides in a federally-designated ozone non-attainment area.

[Part 1 of 3] T2 - BERING SEA, ALASKA: CHINOOK SALMON BYCATCH MANAGEMENT. AN - 756824613; 13736-080484_0001 AB - PURPOSE: The amendment of the Alaskan Bering Sea pollock fishery management plan (FMP) is proposed to minimize Chinook salmon bycatch in the Bering Sea pollock fishery. The proposed action is focused on the Bering Sea pollock fishery as this fishery is responsible for up to 95 percent of the Chinook salmon taken incidentally as bycatch in the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands groundfish fisheries. The alternatives analyzed in this draft EIS generally involve limits or "caps" on the number of Chinook salmon that could be caught in the Bering Sea pollock fishery and closure of all or parts of the fishery to pollock fishing once the cap is reached. These closures would be enforced when a Chinook salmon bycatch cap was reached, even if the entire pollock total allowable catch had not yet been harvested. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), which would perpetuate the current management regime, are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred Alternative (Alternative 4) would provide for two annual scenarios, with a cap for each. Under each scenario, a Chinook bycatch would be established for each pollock fishing season. Once the cap was reached, all directed pollock fishing would be directed to cease for the remainder of the season at hand. Annual Scenario 1 would establish a dual cap system, with a high cap of 68,392 salmon for vessels that participate in the federally approved bycatch inter-cooperative agreement (ICA), which provides explicit incentives to avoid bycatch, as well as a "backstop" cap of 32,482 salmon for vessels that do not participate in the ICA. The primary purpose of the ICA is to keep Chinook salmon bycatch as far as practicable below the cap level. Annual Scenario 2 would establish a bycatch cap of 47,591 salmon without a provision for ICA participants. The prescribed sector level caps, and the provisions to allocate the caps as transferrable allocations and divide the sector-level caps to inshore the fishing vessel cooperative level and among community development quota groups, are identical for both scenarios. Each cap would be apportioned seasonally, 70 percent to the early season and 30 percent to the late season. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would minimize Chinook salmon bycatch in the Alaskan Bering Sea pollock fishery, while continuing to achieve optimum yield. Minimizing Chinook salmon bycatch while achieving optimum yield would maintain a healthy marine ecosystem, ensure the long-term conservation and abundance of Chinook salmon populations, provide maximum economic benefit to fishing interests and fishing communities that depend on Chinook salmon and pollock resources, and comply with federal mandates. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Caps and other ICA-related restrictions would reduce pollock catch and, thereby, affect the economic viability of some fishing vessel operators and, if extreme restrictions were necessary to conserve the Chinook salmon population, some fish processing interests. Community impacts are unlikely, but possible. Costs of administering the fishery and enforcing fishery regulations would increase somewhat. Economic and subsistence impacts could redound to Native Alaskan populations.

AN - 754908103; 14470 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a replacement facility for the Southwest Fisheries Science Center (SWFSC) Laboratory in La Jolla, California is proposed. The SWFSC is one of six regional fisheries science centers operated by the National Marine Fisheries Service. The laboratory has been in a precarious position on the edge of a 180-foot eroding high coastal bluff since the El Nino winter of 1997-1998. Three of the four existing buildings are within 25 feet of the bluff edge and two of the buildings are in the process of being vacated due to the safety hazard to occupants. The new 124,000-square-foot laboratory would be constructed across La Jolla Shores Drive from its predecessor at the northern end of the campus of Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO), on a 3.3-acre undeveloped parcel leased from the University of California at San Diego (UCSD). The facility would contain seawater aquaria, various laboratories, specimen archives, plus a library, conference rooms and office space for the 283 scientists and support staff working at the existing SWFSC, and up to17 additional staff. An additional 90,000 square feet of parking space would provide 202 parking stalls in an underground garage. The design of the new laboratory would include photovoltaic cells, elaborate water retention systems, recycled materials and green roofs planted with California coastal chaparral, and would be constructed to obtain Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification. If the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) decide to implement the proposed action, construction would start in 2010 and the building would be ready for occupancy in 2012. Employees and operations at SWFSC and at temporary leased offices in the area would be moved into the building, followed by demolition of at-risk Buildings B and C at the existing SWFSC site. Buildings A and D would be turned over to SIO for possible future occupancy by SIO staff currently occupying over-crowded space at the UCSD/SIO campus. Other alternatives considered in this draft EIS include bluff stabilization, on-site and near-site redevelopment, off-site development, leased space, and collocation of SWFSC with other NOAA facilities. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Construction of the new facility would allow the SWFSC to continue its legacy surveys and monitoring programs while incorporating new technologies in the provision of advice on the conservation and management of living marine resources in the California Current, Eastern Tropical Pacific and Antarctic ecosystems. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction of the new facility and demolition of Buildings B and C would generate noise over 2.5-year and six-month periods, respectively. Construction and demolition activities would also generate noticeable vibrations at nearby academic buildings and residences and could require temporary restrictions on use of local roads. Construction-period emissions would release substantial amounts of nitrogen oxides in a federally-designated ozone non-attainment area.

Preparation date: November 21, 2008 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - BERING SEA, ALASKA: CHINOOK SALMON BYCATCH MANAGEMENT. AN - 15222930; 13736 AB - PURPOSE: The amendment of the Alaskan Bering Sea pollock fishery management plan (FMP) is proposed to minimize Chinook salmon bycatch in the Bering Sea pollock fishery. The proposed action is focused on the Bering Sea pollock fishery as this fishery is responsible for up to 95 percent of the Chinook salmon taken incidentally as bycatch in the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands groundfish fisheries. The alternatives analyzed in this draft EIS generally involve limits or "caps" on the number of Chinook salmon that could be caught in the Bering Sea pollock fishery and closure of all or parts of the fishery to pollock fishing once the cap is reached. These closures would be enforced when a Chinook salmon bycatch cap was reached, even if the entire pollock total allowable catch had not yet been harvested. Four alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), which would perpetuate the current management regime, are considered in this draft EIS. The preferred Alternative (Alternative 4) would provide for two annual scenarios, with a cap for each. Under each scenario, a Chinook bycatch would be established for each pollock fishing season. Once the cap was reached, all directed pollock fishing would be directed to cease for the remainder of the season at hand. Annual Scenario 1 would establish a dual cap system, with a high cap of 68,392 salmon for vessels that participate in the federally approved bycatch inter-cooperative agreement (ICA), which provides explicit incentives to avoid bycatch, as well as a "backstop" cap of 32,482 salmon for vessels that do not participate in the ICA. The primary purpose of the ICA is to keep Chinook salmon bycatch as far as practicable below the cap level. Annual Scenario 2 would establish a bycatch cap of 47,591 salmon without a provision for ICA participants. The prescribed sector level caps, and the provisions to allocate the caps as transferrable allocations and divide the sector-level caps to inshore the fishing vessel cooperative level and among community development quota groups, are identical for both scenarios. Each cap would be apportioned seasonally, 70 percent to the early season and 30 percent to the late season. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed action would minimize Chinook salmon bycatch in the Alaskan Bering Sea pollock fishery, while continuing to achieve optimum yield. Minimizing Chinook salmon bycatch while achieving optimum yield would maintain a healthy marine ecosystem, ensure the long-term conservation and abundance of Chinook salmon populations, provide maximum economic benefit to fishing interests and fishing communities that depend on Chinook salmon and pollock resources, and comply with federal mandates. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Caps and other ICA-related restrictions would reduce pollock catch and, thereby, affect the economic viability of some fishing vessel operators and, if extreme restrictions were necessary to conserve the Chinook salmon population, some fish processing interests. Community impacts are unlikely, but possible. Costs of administering the fishery and enforcing fishery regulations would increase somewhat. Economic and subsistence impacts could redound to Native Alaskan populations.

8771696 AB - Two 24-h surveys were conducted in St. Andrew Bay, Florida, during spring and neap tides to describe the tidal and non-tidal circulation patterns and to determine the factors that affect these patterns. In particular, the effect of tidal forcing in modulating such circulation patterns was explored. Observed velocities were fitted to diurnal and semidiurnal harmonics separating tidal motions from sub-tidal motions. Residual flows were compared with an analytic model that allowed variations in the relative contributions from Coriolis acceleration and friction using the Ekman number. A solution with an Ekman number of 0.04 resembled the observations best and indicated that the hydrodynamics were governed by pressure gradient, Coriolis and friction. Locally, advective accelerations became important around headlands in sub-estuaries in the system. The consistency of the mean pattern from October to March suggests that tides play a minor role in modulating the exchange flow. Deviations from the long-term mean are mainly caused by wind-driven coastal setup and setdown.

AN - 69819421; 19025676 AB - Coupled physical-biological models are capable of linking the complex interactions between environmental factors and physical hydrodynamics to simulate the growth, toxicity and transport of infectious pathogens and harmful algal blooms (HABs). Such simulations can be used to assess and predict the impact of pathogens and HABs on human health. Given the widespread and increasing reliance of coastal communities on aquatic systems for drinking water, seafood and recreation, such predictions are critical for making informed resource management decisions. Here we identify three challenges to making this connection between pathogens/HABs and human health: predicting concentrations and toxicity; identifying the spatial and temporal scales of population and ecosystem interactions; and applying the understanding of population dynamics of pathogens/HABs to management strategies. We elaborate on the need to meet each of these challenges, describe how modeling approaches can be used and discuss strategies for moving forward in addressing these challenges.

AN - 69819032; 19025674 AB - Innovative research relating oceans and human health is advancing our understanding of disease-causing organisms in coastal ecosystems. Novel techniques are elucidating the loading, transport and fate of pathogens in coastal ecosystems, and identifying sources of contamination. This research is facilitating improved risk assessments for seafood consumers and those who use the oceans for recreation. A number of challenges still remain and define future directions of research and public policy. Sample processing and molecular detection techniques need to be advanced to allow rapid and specific identification of microbes of public health concern from complex environmental samples. Water quality standards need to be updated to more accurately reflect health risks and to provide managers with improved tools for decision-making. Greater discrimination of virulent versus harmless microbes is needed to identify environmental reservoirs of pathogens and factors leading to human infections. Investigations must include examination of microbial community dynamics that may be important from a human health perspective. Further research is needed to evaluate the ecology of non-enteric water-transmitted diseases. Sentinels should also be established and monitored, providing early warning of dangers to ecosystem health. Taken together, this effort will provide more reliable information about public health risks associated with beaches and seafood consumption, and how human activities can affect their exposure to disease-causing organisms from the oceans.

754542334; 13266529 AB - Mounting evidence suggests that low-volatility (particle-phase) organic compounds form in the atmosphere through aqueous phase reactions in clouds and aerosols. Although some models have begun including secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formation through cloud processing, validation studies that compare predictions and measurements are needed. In this work, agreement between modeled organic carbon (OC) and aircraft measurements of water soluble OC improved for all 5 of the compared ICARTT NOAA-P3 flights during August when an in-cloud SOA (SOAcld) formation mechanism was added to CMAQ (a regional-scale atmospheric model). The improvement was most dramatic for the August 14th flight, a flight designed specifically to investigate clouds. During this flight, the normalized mean bias for layer-averaged OC was reduced from -64 to -15% and correlation (r) improved from 0.5 to 0.6. Underpredictions of OC aloft by atmospheric models may be explained, in part, by this formation mechanism (SOAcld). OC formation aloft contributes to long-range pollution transport and has implications to radiative forcing, regional air quality and climate.

AN - 69728218; 18847204 AB - Alkali- and alkaline-earth metal amidoboranes are a new class of compounds with rarely observed [NH2BH3](-) units. LiNH2BH3 and solvent-containing Ca(NH2BH3)2 x THF have been recently reported to significantly improve the dehydrogenation properties of ammonia borane. Therefore, metal amidoboranes, with accelerated desorption kinetics and suppressed toxic borazine, are of great interest for their potential applications for hydrogen storage. In this work, we successfully determined the structures of LiNH2BH3 and Ca(NH2BH3)2 using a combined X-ray diffraction and first-principles molecular dynamics simulated annealing method. Through detailed structural analysis and first-principles electronic structure calculations the improved dehydrogenation properties are attributed to the different bonding nature and reactivity of the metal amidoboranes compared to NH3BH3.

Multivariate methods of analysis, such as principal-component analysis (PCA), show promise in identifying whether 'nugget' effects exist within a material, where an element is enriched in small, isolated areas of the sample. The PCA model is built based on data taken in one location and compared with each elemental map. This methodology is shown for several reference materials including SRM 2702 and SRM 2703 to show how PCA treatment can be used to identify which elements exhibit nugget effects within the sub-mg mass range. A method of calculating the minimum recommended mass for solid samples is suggested using PCA iteratively on X-ray maps from which adjacent data points have been averaged. This is repeated until the mass sampled in a map is indistinguishable from data taken at a single location, suggesting no nugget effects can be detected. For SRM 1577c, a mass as low as 370 kg can be used without measurable nugget effects.

The abstraction facilitates research by controlling for (some) sources of variability, thus increasing the power of experiments that compare system effectiveness while reducing their cost. However, even within the highly-abstracted case of the Cranfield paradigm, meta-analysis demonstrates that the user/topic effect is greater than the system effect, so experiments must include a relatively large number of topics to distinguish systems' effectiveness. The evidence further suggests that changing the abstraction slightly to include just a bit more characterization of the user will result in a dramatic loss of power or increase in cost of retrieval experiments. Defining a new, feasible abstraction for supporting adaptive IR research will require winnowing the list of all possible factors that can affect retrieval behavior to a minimum number of essential factors.

By introducing a fiducial reference, it may be possible to detect smaller changes in lesion size more reliably. We suspend three precision spheres with a precision structure built from pieces from a popular children's building toy. We measure the distances between the centroids of the structures three ways; namely, with a high-precision mechanical method, micro computerized tomography, and medical computerized tomography. The three methods are in agreement, and also agree with the design values for the structure. It is also possible to pick a threshold so that the three spheres have their nominal volumes in the medical computerized tomography images. The use of volumetric measures allows the determination of lengths to much less than the voxel size using materials which have x-ray properties within the range of the human body. A suitable structure may be built with a very small parts cost.

Studds Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary AN - 21279773; 11899358 AB - In 2006, we used the U.S. Coast Guard's Automatic Identification System (AIS) to describe patterns of large commercial ship traffic within a U.S. National Marine Sanctuary located off the coast of Massachusetts. We found that 541 large commercial vessels transited the greater sanctuary 3413 times during the year. Cargo ships, tankers, and tug/tows constituted 78% of the vessels and 82% of the total transits. Cargo ships, tankers, and cruise ships predominantly used the designated Boston Traffic Separation Scheme, while tug/tow traffic was concentrated in the western and northern portions of the sanctuary. We combined AIS data with low-frequency acoustic data from an array of nine autonomous recording units analyzed for 2months in 2006. Analysis of received sound levels (10-1000Hz, root-mean-square pressure re 1 kPacSE) averaged 119.5c0.3dB at high-traffic locations. High-traffic locations experienced double the acoustic power of less trafficked locations for the majority of the time period analyzed. Average source level estimates (71-141Hz, root-mean-square pressure re 1 kPacSE) for individual vessels ranged from 158c2dB (research vessel) to 186c2dB (oil tanker). Tankers were estimated to contribute 2 times more acoustic power to the region than cargo ships, and more than 100 times more than research vessels. Our results indicate that noise produced by large commercial vessels was at levels and within frequencies that warrant concern among managers regarding the ability of endangered whales to maintain acoustic contact within greater sanctuary waters.

Hylebos Waterway sediment is contaminated with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and organochlorines (OCs), and Colvos Passage, a nearby nonurban area, is minimally contaminated. Fish from Hylebos Waterway had higher concentrations of both PAHs and OCs in tissues than fish from Colvos Passage. Overall, little correlation was observed between PAH exposure and biological parameters, but strong correlations were observed between OCs and the biological parameters. Migration of fish from less contaminated areas into the Hylebos Waterway during the reproductive season might have influenced these results, based on temporal changes in fish age and contaminant concentrations.

The United States (U.S.) receives over 90 percent of the exports from central and South American countries and spiny lobster is considered an important product for major dealers and distributors. In many instances, imports are undersized based on size limits established in the U.S. and/or in the country of origin. DNA analysis indicates a single stock structure for the Caribbean spiny lobster (Lipcius and Cobb, 1994; Silberman and Walsh 1994) throughout its range, and thus proper management for resource sustainability is imperative. If the importation of undersized lobsters is allowed to continue, such a practice could potentially impact the reproductive potential of the species, recreational and commercial fishing success, market availability, and the ability to enforce regulations designed to protect the sustainability of the resource. This situation is an important concern for U.S. Southeast Regional Management Councils, responsible for managing the Caribbean spiny lobster resource. Many Caribbean and Central and South American nations share these concerns, and scientific evidence suggests that larvae from one area or region within this species' range may contribute to stock recruitment in other areas or regions. The Caribbean Fishery Management Council (Council) has expressed intent to amend its Spiny Lobster Fishery Management Plan (FMP) to consider application of a minimum size limit on imported spiny lobster. NOAA Fisheries Service believes that potential revisions to the Gulf of Mexico and South Atlantic Spiny Lobster FMP should be addressed concurrently. After conferring with the Gulf of Mexico Fishery Management Council and South Atlantic Fishery Management Council, the U.S. Secretary of Commerce designated the Council as the administrative lead to address spiny lobster issues. Thus, the Council will prepare one document that contains an amendment to the Caribbean Spiny Lobster FMP and also an amendment to the Gulf and South Atlantic Spiny Lobster FMP. Given the scientific, international trade, and enforcement issues associated with this action, an opportunity to review potential alternatives under consideration and supporting analyses, is imperative. Proper coordination among all parties will help to ensure that issues are addressed early on in the FMP amendment process.

The Nassau grouper is listed as endangered by the International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources (IUCN). Intense harvesting of spawning aggregations is the primary cause of the precipitous decline in populations throughout the Caribbean. Over the last 4 decades, several Caribbean governments have instituted harvest bans on Nassau grouper following stock collapse. In no instance that we are aware of has the species sufficiently recovered following protections. In 2002, the Reef Environmental Education Foundation (REEF) embarked on the Grouper Moon Project (http://www.reef.org/programs/grouper_moon), an international cooperative research program with the Cayman Islands Department of the Environment (CIDOE). Since 1987, the CIDOE has been monitoring Nassau grouper spawning season catches in Grand Cayman and Cayman Brae at the request of fishermen who reported decreased fish size and catch. In 2000, a previously undocumented spawning aggregation on Little Cayman was discovered and heavily harvested with hook and line (approximately 2,000 Nassau groupers were harvested over a nine-day period in 2001). Monitoring efforts associated with the Grouper Moon Project began during the January 2002 aggregation period at which time another 2,000 Nassau grouper were harvested (Whaylen et al. 2004). This active aggregation, along with seven other designated aggregations in the Cayman Islands, was protected under legislation enacted in 2003 to prohibit fishing on known grouper spawning sites. As part of an ongoing effort to monitor changes in the Little Cayman aggregation population, we collected size distribution data on aggregating fish in 2004, 2005, and 2006 (Whaylen et al. 2006). In boih 2005 and 2006, we collected size data from the spawning site on consecutive within-year aggregations to assess differences in the size of aggregating individuals. Our findings indicated aggregating fish were larger toward the end of spawning periods, and that aggregating fish were larger during subsequent within-year spawning periods. These findings agree with results from an acoustic tagging project showing that larger fish remain at the aggregation site longer during a given spawning period, and are more likely to attend multiple spawning periods within years (Semmens et al. 2005). Our findings suggest that older, larger fish are differentially susceptible to harvest on unprotected spawning sites due to the amount of time they spend aggregating. In the context of the Cayman Islands spawning site protections, these findings highlight the importance of continuing to maintain protections into the future.

The East and West Flower Garden Banks are but two of dozens of reefs and banks scattered across the outer edge of the continental shelf in the northwestern Gulf of Mexico. A biogeographic characterization of the fish community and benthic habitat was conducted during two cruises in 2006 and 2007, as part of a long term agreement between NCCOS's Biogeography Branch and the National Marine Sanctuary Program. A stratified random sampling design was implemented to sample the benthic habitat and fish communities of both the East and West Flower Banks. This paper spatially characterizes the abundance and distribution of Madracis mirabilis and the associated reef fish fauna within the FGBNMS. Madracis mirabilis is a rugose branching coral which covers extensive "valleys" across portions of the flanks of the East Flower Bank. Additionally, its benefit as a benthic habitat and regional connectivity are explored. These factors will examine the potential role of Madracis as a settlement site for juvenile fish on the coral caps. The characterization provides necessary fish and habitat information within the coral cap region of the Sanctuary to facilitate conservation and management efforts.

Since shortly after the grounding, we have monitored the restoration using coral reattachment, survival, and growth and the recovery of fish assemblages as measures of success. Although we have no surveys from before the grounding, we have neighboring undisturbed areas for comparison and we can analyze temporal changes within the site. In early surveys reef fish assemblages were significantly different from adjacent control sites. With almost a decade of monitoring complete, we are starting to see increases in species diversity and increases in juvenile haemulids, species known to be habitat selective. Additional monitoring will determine when the conditions can be considered "normative" however experimental approaches might be required to improve restoration of fish habitat and encourage the coral-fish interactions that can contribute to the effectiveness of coral reef restoration.

However, limited data is available that describes or characterizes this former condition. Data collected from ecosystems with comparatively limited anthropogenic impacts, can provide invaluable information in suggesting what former states may have looked like. One example is the Flower Garden Banks National Marine Sanctuary which is located 180 kilometers off the coast of Texas. These relatively isolated and pristine banks are capped by substantial scleractinian coral communities, forming excellent habitat for over 200 species of fish. While fishing is permitted, it is limited by difficulty of access. In 2006, NOAA's Biogeography Branch, in collaboration with the Sanctuary, initiated the first quantitative assessment of fish resources throughout the diveable portions of the Sanctuary. The sampling design and methodologies employed were identical to those that the Branch has utilized in other more impacted regions of the US Caribbean. Initial analyses reveal that fish density and species richness at the Sanctuary were almost two times greater than that found within the US Caribbean and biomass was approximately six times higher. This was due in large part to the presence of sizeable piscivores of the genera Mycteroperca and Dermatolepis. The Sanctuary is one of few minimally impacted locations remaining within the Tropical Western Atlantic. As such, these findings should be considered when attempting to establish a former state or evaluate effectiveness of an MPA in meeting its management goals.

We used a fishery-dependent data source (NOAA headboat data) and two fishery-independent data sources (NOAA reef fish surveys and Reef Environmental Education Foundation surveys) to assess spatial trends in abundance and length-frequency distributions of multiple fishery targeted species along the FL Keys, USA. Regardless of data source, results from analyses were consistent species-specific proxies for abundance and length-frequency distributions tended to be lowest and smallest, respectively, in the northernmost Fl Keys (Biscayne National Park area) adjacent to the Ft Lauderdale / Miami metropolitan area. Results are discussed in terms of likely underlying mechanisms and implications for management.

TT - CITES: Una herramienta para el Comercio Internacional de la Langosta Espinosa? AN - 21123199; 11147820 AB - Recent reports from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) state that spiny lobster (Panulirus argus) is harvested at maximum levels throughout much of its range. In most countries there is a need to control fishing effort for this species and ensure sustainable use. Although this species is consumed domestically, a high percentage of the catch enters international trade. Brazil proposed listing Panulirus argus and P. laevicauda (Brazil populations only) in Appendix II at the 14 super(th) meeting of the Conference of the Parties to CITES. CITES Appendix II includes species that, although currently not threatened with extinction, may become so without trade controls. Regulated trade is allowed provided the exporting country issues a permit. Prior to issuing a permit exporting countries must make findings that the commodity was legally acquired and the export will not be detrimental to the survival of the species. Listing of queen conch (Strombus gigas) in CITES Appendix II has been a useful complement to national management programs. CITES also provides other ways to regulate and control international trade. Appendix I includes species in danger of extinction, for which all commercial trade is prohibited. Appendix III includes species for which a range country has asked for the cooperation of other countries in controlling international trade. Importing countries must check for export permits, issued by the country of origin, for an Appendix-III species or certificates of origin from all other countries. In this paper, we discuss ways in which CITES might be used to regulate international trade in spiny lobster.

Although normally solitary, during the winter full moon Nassau grouper attend aggregations at spawning site to reproduce. Now, however, there are only a handful of known Nassau grouper aggregations with more than 1,000 fish left in the Caribbean. Why has the species declined so precipitously, and what can be done to reverse the trend? I will discuss recent and ongoing research into the behavior and ecology of Nassau grouper, and highlight the conservation implications of this work. I will also discuss critical research needs in the ongoing effort to identify prudent conservation measures for this species.

The development of an extensive canal system in the region has diverted freshwater runoff to the shelf for over sixty years. Changes in the ecology of this coastal ecosystem have resulted and are currently being assessed as part of the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan. The goal of the plan is to restore the quantity, quality, timing and distribution of freshwater flows through the region. An examination of the changes in water quality on the shelf over a six year record is provided and includes an assessment of land-use and restoration efforts. Sub-regions of the shelf are delineated by grouping similar water quality and salinity means and variations, and nutrient distributions associated with survey stations, freshwater sources and coastal boundary land uses. The results can be used to enhance and contribute to the existing regional conceptual ecological models that include estuarine fish community components (Barnes 2005, Browder 2005, Rudnic et al. 2005, SFWMD 2007).

Since the late 1990s, the Environmental Protection Agency Clean Air Markets Division (EPA CAMD) has kept a repository of hourly CO2 emission data for most power plants in the conterminous United States. In this study, the CAMD CO2 data are used to derive a high spatiotemporal resolution CO2 emissions inventory for the electricity generation sector (inventory available on request). Data from 1998 to 2006 have been processed. This unique inventory can be used to improve the understanding of the carbon cycle at fine temporal and spatial scales. The CAMD data set provides the first quantitative estimates of the diurnal and seasonal cycles of the emissions as well as the year to year variability. Emissions peak in the summertime owing to the widespread use of air conditioning. Summertime emissions are in fact highly correlated with the daily average temperature. In conjunction with the EPA Emissions and Generation Resource Integrated Database (eGRID), we have derived high-resolution maps of CO2 emissions by fossil fuel burned (coal, gas, oil) for the year 2004. The CAMD data set also reflects regional anomalies in power generation such as the August 2003 blackout in the northeastern United States and the 2000 - 2001 increase in production in California. We recommend that all sectors of the economy report similar high-resolution CO2 emissions because of their great usefulness both for carbon cycle science and for greenhouse gases emissions mitigation and regulation.

The Building and Fire Research Laboratory (BFRL) at the National Institute of Standards and Technology has conducted research to establish test conditions that best represent the environment in which TIC are used. Firefighters may use TIC for field operations ranging from fire attack, search/rescue, hot spot detection, overhaul activities, to detecting the location of hazardous materials. To develop standardized TIC performance metrics and test methods that capture the harsh environment in which TIC may be used, information was collected from users, the literature, and from fire tests conducted at BFRL. A workshop was held to facilitate knowledge transfer from the fire service and TIC manufacturers. Full-scale and bench-scale experimental work focused on temperature extremes and the presence of obscuring media such as smoke, dust and water. Consolidation of fire environment data with fire fighting operations and imaging needs resulted in a set of performance metrics and test methods that relate to the conditions and tasks encountered by firefighters in structural fire fighting applications. This work is included in a new draft standard on fire service TIC.

This paper presents a methodology to examine this issue. The heat release rate curve of the object is described by a Gaussian time variation; a perturbation peak, also Gaussian, is added to this main peak. The impacts of the perturbation peak on the build up of hazardous conditions in a room fire (where the object is the only item burning) and on the threat of ignition of secondary items are examined. For the peak heat release rate domain studied here, only the ignition threat is significantly affected by the perturbation peak. The results quantify the trade-off between the height of the perturbation peak and its duration for a fixed percentage of increase in the room area threatened by secondary object ignition. The results show that the increased threat is of the same order as the relative perturbation in heat release rate.

Three complementary methods (towed-diver surveys, video transects, and photoquadrats) were used to quantify percent cover of corals by genus or species in the fore-reef, back-reef, and lagoon habitats. Three genera, Porites, Pocillopora, and Montipora, accounted for more than 99% of the coral cover throughout the atoll, although their relative abundances vary considerably according to habitat and geographic sector within habitats. Fore-reef communities are dominated by massive and encrusting Porites and by Pocillopora, while the back reef is dominated by Montipora and the lagoon by Porites compressa. All taxa show habitat-specific differences in colony density and size-class distributions as assessed through colony counts within belt transects at fixed sites. These demographic data provide the most detailed, spatially comprehensive description of coral communities at Kure Atoll produced to date and can serve as a solid baseline for determining the magnitude and direction of future changes. They are discussed within the context of factors known to affect community development on Hawaiian coral reefs including temperature, wave stress, coral bleaching and other diseases, marine debris, and crown-of-thorns seastars.

Unexpected plume dispersion often arose because of the interaction of complex terrain and mountain-valley flow dynamics, drainage flows, synoptic influences, and urban canopy effects, all within a nocturnal boundary layer. It was found that plume dispersion was strongly influenced by topography, that dispersion can be significantly different than what might be expected based upon the available wind data, and that it is problematic to rely on any one urban-area wind measurement to predict or anticipate dispersion. Small-scale flows can be very important in dispersion, and their interaction with the larger-scale flow field needs to be carefully considered. Some of the anomalies observed include extremely slow dispersion, complicated recirculation dispersion patterns in which plume transport was in directions opposed to the measured winds, and flow decoupling. Some of the plume dispersion anomalies could only be attributed to small-scale winds that were not resolved by the existing meteorological monitoring network. The results shown will make clear the difficulties in modeling or planning for emergency response to toxic releases in a nocturnal urban boundary layer within complex terrain.

Three zones were defined: (H) severe alteration, (M) intermediate alteration, and (L) natural conditions starting about 5 km upstream. Eleven water-quality and habitat variables were quantified for infaunal and epifaunal nekton as indicators of habitat quality adjacent to both 'restricted' and hardened shore and 'unrestricted' or marsh-edge shore within each impact zone. Epifaunal nekton richness (S) was consistently greater at unrestricted shore types than restricted ones, highest in zone M and lowest in zone H, whereas infaunal S did not vary among impact zones or between shore types. Cluster analysis showed epifaunal nekton assemblages from unrestricted shores in zones M and L were most similar to each other, whereas restricted shore infaunal assemblages from zones H and M linked at similar to 70%. SIMPER analysis indicated infaunal composition was not dissimilar among zones or between shore types. In contrast, epifaunal nekton assemblages were dissimilar from one another because of the presence and density of Corophium louisianum and Hargeria rapax, two major fish prey items. Our data suggest the relative quality of marsh-edge habitat depends upon the surrounding landscape and that the simple presence of marsh habitat is not enough to ensure a high level of ecosystem health. Rather, it is the spatial arrangement of the marsh that markedly affects the system's health. It is apparent that even the smallest patch of marsh habitat supported a larger diversity of fauna than nearby restricted habitats, suggesting that it matters where a salt-marsh habitat patch (including restoration sites) is located along the landscape because it will influence habitat quality and connectivity and thus the composition of infauna and epifauna nekton assemblages.

The Atlantic sturgeon status review team intended to rely on previously used methods to assess extinction risk, but found that most quantitative extinction risk analyses were performed on data-rich populations and often did not systematically consider the five factors specified in Section 4(a)(1) of the ESA as required for listing a species. Taking cues from structured decision analysis theory, the team created a framework, based around the five factors, which can be used to evaluate the status of data-poor species. Potential scoring biases were minimized in this analysis by providing experts with standardized reference points for scoring, dividing the analysis into smaller units, and using both individual and group opinion. Using this five-factored structured decision analysis, the status review team recommended that three of the five distinct population segments warranted listing as threatened. The status review team offers their approach to increase transparency about their scientific recommendation and to aid other teams who are tasked with systematically evaluating the status of data-poor species.

The COSMIC retrievals, which employ a global positioning system radio occultation technique combined with 'first-guess' information from numerical weather prediction model analyses, are evaluated through the diagnosis of an intense atmospheric river (AR; i.e., a narrow plume of strong water vapor flux) that devastated the Pacific Northwest with flooding rains in early November 2006. A detailed analysis of this AR is presented first using conventional datasets and highlights the fact that ARs are critical contributors to West Coast extreme precipitation and flooding events. Then, the COSMIC evaluation is provided. Offshore composite COSMIC soundings north of, within, and south of this AR exhibited vertical structures that are meteorologically consistent with satellite imagery and global reanalysis fields of this case and with earlier composite dropsonde results from other landfalling ARs. Also, a curtain of 12 offshore COSMIC soundings through the AR yielded cross-sectional thermodynamic and moisture structures that were similarly consistent, including details comparable to earlier aircraft-based dropsonde analyses. The results show that the new COSMIC retrievals, which are global (currently yielding similar to 2000 soundings per day), provide high-resolution vertical-profile information beyond that found in the numerical model first-guess fields and can help monitor key lower-tropospheric mesoscale phenomena in data-sparse regions. Hence, COSMIC will likely support a wide array of applications, from physical process studies to data assimilation, numerical weather prediction, and climate research.

Differences in the occurrence of daily precipitation between the observations and a set of CFS reforecasts are examined as a function of forecast lead time for 1982-2005. Difference patterns show considerable evolution depending on season and lead time, with positive biases in CFS at most locations and leads except along the southern tier of states during the spring and summer months. An examination of differences in daily precipitation statistics by ENSO phase and in the frequencies of wet and dry spells is also conducted using a longer period of gridded daily station data (1948-2006) and a pair of 100-yr CFS coupled simulations. These comparisons expose additional details of the regional and seasonal dependence of the bias in the CFS simulations and reforecasts over the conterminous United States. The analysis motivates additional synoptic studies aimed at improving the linkage between daily precipitation and related circulation features in CFS.

In this study, we describe the nascent recovery of the Georges Bank haddock stock. This mainstay of the New England groundfish fishery was overfished for decades prior to mid-1990s and experienced long-term declines in spawning biomass and recruitment. The stock was considered to have collapsed in the early-1990s when a lawsuit by the Conservation Law Foundation led the New England Fishery Management Council (NEFMC) and the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) to take actions to cease overfishing and to recover Georges Bank haddock and other groundfish stocks. Under restrictive management measures, stock size increased 10-fold from 1995 to 2005. In 2003, an exceptionally abundant year class (YC) was produced. Although this YC may rebuild the haddock stock to pre-1930s abundance if properly fished, monitoring changes in life history parameters and recruitment will be important for sustaining stock recovery. Mean weights and sizes at age of adult haddock have decreased in recent years, and compensatory responses of haddock growth and recruitment to changes in stock density are assessed. We discuss some remaining challenges to managing this recovering transboundary resource in a dynamic multispecies fishery.

As this CO2 is absorbed by seawater, it not only reacts causing a reduction in seawater pH (or acidification) but also decreases the carbonate mineral saturation state (), which plays an important role in calcification for many marine organisms. Ocean acidification could affect some of the most fundamental biological and geochemical processes of the sea in coming decades. Observations obtained from Volunteer Observing Ships and multiple geochemical surveys have been extended using satellite remote sensing and modeled environmental parameters to derive estimates of sea-surface alkalinity (AT) and carbon dioxide partial pressure (pCO2,sw). Pairing estimates of AT and pCO2,sw have permitted characterization of the changes in sea-surface , which have transpired over the past decade throughout the Greater Caribbean Region as a consequence of ocean acidification. The results reveal considerable spatial and temporal variability throughout the region. Despite this variability, we observed a strong secular decrease in aragonite saturation state (arg) at a rate of approximately -0.012 c 0.001 arg yr-1 (2 = 0.97, < 0.001).

Observed average BC mass loadings, estimated to account for ~90% of the ambient BC mass, decreased by more than 2 orders of magnitude from the polluted boundary layer to the clean middle troposphere (6 km). A strong positive, but non-linear, correlation was observed between simultaneous measurements of BC and CO. Based on an analysis of all the data below 1 km, we report a compact relationship between BC and CO with a slope of 5.8 Delta #+ 1.0 ng BC (kg dry air)-1 (ppb CO)-1 that is representative of regional urban and industrial emissions from Houston and Dallas. The BC/CO emission ratio for a fresh biomass-burning plume was estimated at 9 Delta #+ 2 ng kg-1 ppb-1.

This study concentrates on quantifying the aerosol optical depth (AOD) differences when the above differences are absent and exactly the same clear radiances are inputted to the aerosol algorithms used to generate the two products. This is accomplished by retrieving AOD with the single-channel algorithm at 22 oceanic locations from the reflectance data in the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) Atmosphere Parameters Subset Statistics (MAPSS) data set for the period of 2000 - 2007 and then by comparing them to the corresponding MODIS AOD data reported in MAPSS. Comparisons of AODs are performed for two MODIS instruments flown onboard the Terra and Aqua platforms at two wavelengths. On average, the mean differences are wavelength and platform dependent. The single-channel 644-nm AODs are larger by 0.004 - 0.015 (~2 - 9%) than those from the multichannel algorithm. The mean AOD at 1632 nm from both algorithms are very similar from Terra, but the single-channel AOD from Aqua at 2119 nm is lower by 0.02 (~24%). The mean absolute differences are 0.022 - 0.025 and do not change much with wavelength or platform. Slight dependence of the mean differences on the scattering angle is observed, which is partially explained by the differences between the retrieved aerosol model in the multichannel retrieval and the fixed aerosol model used in the single-channel algorithm.

The Community Multiscale Air Quality (CMAQ) chemical-transport model, equipped with the process analysis technique, was applied in modeling scenarios involving 2002 base case emissions and an emissions scenario containing real-world point source NOx reductions implemented before the summer ozone season of 2004. Spatial patterns and temporal variations in process rates and changes in chemical-transport indicators are highlighted from results of summer 2002 days, representative of generally southwesterly wind flows across the Midwestern source region with ozone transport toward the northeastern states. Substantial decreases exceeding 50% in O3 chemical production rates were associated with the largest NOx point source emission reductions, causing declines in ozone concentrations at the surface and aloft in downwind areas. The decreases in the various physical processes and their spatial difference patterns closely resembled the change in maximum O3 concentrations. The net ozone production efficiency was found to increase, since the decline in O3 concentrations was less than the decrease in reactive nitrogen products (NOz). The O3/NOx ratio also increased between the base case and NOx reduction scenario results, indicating a noticeable shift in the chemical regime toward more NOx-limited conditions in plume-impacted areas downwind of the sources. The drop in surface NOx concentrations in modeled and observed results at a location just downwind of the Ohio River Valley source region is attributable to the point source NOx emission reductions.

We assessed empirically whether the results of experiments testing for density dependence applied at larger spatial domains and explained temporal population dynamics. We studied a small coral reef fish, the goldspot goby (Gnatholepis thompsoni), in the Bahamas. We assessed the effects of interactions with conspecifics and with an ecologically similar species, the bridled goby (Coryphopterus glaucofraenum). Two density manipulations on small reef patches revealed that goldspot goby mortality over one month increased as conspecifics became crowded. On five large natural reefs, we correlated the initial year-class density of both species (annual larval settlement) with the subsequent decline of goldspot goby year-classes for five years. Mortality was correlated with conspecific density among reefs for all years, but not among years for all reefs. Thus, spatial density dependence in mortality scaled up qualitatively from small patches to entire reefs but was not associated with temporal density dependence. Our results support the conclusion that field experiments may be extrapolated to larger spatial domains with care, but that using small spatial comparisons to predict temporal responses is difficult without knowing the underlying biological mechanisms.

Here we show that the anomalous circulation was linked to a leading climate mode of the Northern Hemisphere, the Pacific-North American (PNA) pattern. The PNA index was three standard deviations above the 1950 - 2007 mean, and its primary signal in the atmospheric circulation is a strong anomalous anticyclone that was collocated with the location of the greatest Arctic sea ice decline. Therefore, the record-strength PNA along with recent climate trends in the Arctic help to explain the sudden and extreme sea ice melt during the summer of 2007. While the observed PNA was unique, the large decline in sea ice may be further evidence of increased vulnerability to natural atmospheric variability due to a changing climate system.

We evaluate the extent to which the presence of related individuals can lead such algorithms to the false inference that there is population structure. First, we demonstrate this problem using a real data set from a rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) population. Then we perform an extensive series of simulations involving the program Structure. Our simulations encompass both a simple scenario with fixed numbers of full- and half-siblings in the sample, and a more complicated scenario in which we investigate 360 combinations of population divergence, fraction of population sampled, variance in family size, mating system and number of loci. We find that the inclusion of family members in a sample may produce very strong evidence of population structure, even when population structure is absent. This problem becomes more pronounced when more loci are genotyped, and it is particularly likely in studies of monogamous species, especially if variance in family size is high and a large fraction of a small population has been sampled. Researchers working in such situations should test observed clusters for the presence of family members to distinguish family-induced structure from real population structure. Additionally, this work shows that Structure's ability to estimate the number of subpopulations may be influenced by a number of factors, and therefore should be interpreted guardedly.

It seems natural to ask if artificial cells can be built to use ion transport as effectively as natural cells. Here we report a mathematical calculation of the conversion of ion concentration gradients into action potentials across different nanoscale conductors in a model electrogenic cell (electrocyte) of an electric eel. Using the parameters extracted from the numerical model, we designed an artificial cell based on an optimized selection of conductors. The resulting cell is similar to the electrocyte but has higher power output density and greater energy conversion efficiency. We suggest methods for producing these artificial cells that could potentially be used to power medical implants and other tiny devices.

In the mixed layer model (MLM) experiment, observed sea surface temperatures (SSTs) for the years 1950-99 are specified over the tropical Pacific, while a grid of mixed layer models is coupled to the AGCM elsewhere over the global oceans. The same experimental design was used in the Ekman transport/mixed layer model (EKM) experiment with the addition of Qek in the mixed layer ocean temperature equation. The ENSO signal was evaluated using differences between composites of El Nino and La Nina events averaged over the 16 ensemble members in each experiment. In both experiments the Aleutian low deepened and the resulting surface heat fluxes cooled the central North Pacific and warmed the northeast Pacific during boreal winter in El Nino relative to La Nina events. Including Qek amplified the ENSO-related SSTs by similar to [frac13] in the central and northeast North Pacific, producing anomalies comparable to those in nature. Differences between the ENSO-induced atmospheric circulation anomalies in the EKM and MLM experiments were not significant over the North Pacific. The sea level pressure (SLP) and SST response to ENSO over the Atlantic strongly projects on the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) and the SST tripole pattern in observations and both model experiments. The La Nina anomalies, which are stronger than during El Nino, include high pressure and positive SSTs in the central North Atlantic. Including Ekman transport enhanced the Atlantic SST anomalies, which in contrast to the Pacific, appeared to strengthen the overlying atmospheric circulation.

An analytical method is presented for computing the effective area covered by an objective map for any given in situ sampling distribution. To evaluate the method, appropriately scaled sea surface height (SSH) anomaly maps from Archiving, Validation, and Interpretation of Satellite Oceanographic data (AVISO) are used as a proxy for OHCA from 1993 to 2006. Use of these proxy data demonstrates that the simple area integral (SI) of such an objective map for sparse datasets does not agree as well with the actual integral as the weighted integral (WI), defined as the simple integral weighted by the ratio of the total area over the 'observed' area. From 1955 to 1966, in situ ocean sampling is inadequate to estimate accurately annual global integrals of the proxy upper OHCA. During this period, the SI for the sampling pattern of any given year underestimates the 13-yr trend in proxy OHCA from 1993 to 2006 by around 70%, and confidence limits for the WI are often very large. From 1967 to 2003 there appear to be sufficient data to estimate annual global integrals. Limited by the constraints of this analysis, the SI for any given year's sampling pattern still underestimates the 1993-2006 13-yr trend in the proxy by around 30%, but the WI matches the trend well with small confidence limits. For 2004 through 2006 in situ sampling, with near-global in situ Argo data coverage, the 1993-2006 13-yr trend in the proxy is equally well represented by the SI or WI.

ER - TY - JOUR T1 - Cruise MARCHE3/2008 and other cruises of the MARCHE experiment; a three-year hydroacoustic monitoring of the MOMAR section of the MAR at a regional scale AN - 1637542449; 2014-104623 AB - The Mid-Atlantic Ridge Comprehensive Hydrophone Experiment (MARCHE) completed a long-term acoustic monitoring effort on the seismic activity of the MOMAR area and several segments of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge (MAR), southwest of the Azores Archipelago. The monitoring was achieved over a three-year period, which extended from July 2005 to mid-August 2008, by the deployment of the "MARCHE array" of four autonomous hydrophones (AUHs) moored in the SOFAR channel. The deployment, turn-over, and recovery of the array required five cruises. The MARCHE3 cruise, which sailed from 13-20 August 2008, was the final recovery cruise of the array. Based on the statistics derived from the data recorded during the first two years of the deployment of the MARCHE array, we anticipate that 8000 events will be detected and localized during the total deployment period. Preliminary interpretations of the spatial and temporal distributions derived from this catalog provide major insights on the processes active along the MOMAR section of the MAR, a region of sustained international research effort. The simultaneous deployment during 2007-2008 of the hydrophone array and of seafloor instruments on the Lucky Strike hydrothermal site will allow fruitful comparison between the inputs of the two techniques to the study of slow-spreading ridge processes.

[Part 11 of 11] T2 - SNAPPER GROUPER AMENDMENT 16 (GAG AND VERMILLION SNAPPER) OF THE SOUTH ATLANTIC REGION. AN - 873132354; 14414-0_0011 AB - PURPOSE: The amendment of the fishery management plan (FMP) for the South Atlantic snapper grouper fishery is proposed to address new developments in the gag and vermilion snapper subfisheries. Recent assessments have indicated that the target species are being overfished. Pending the outcome of a new benchmark assessment of vermillion snapper populations, the regional administrator can make adjustments to commercial and recreational management measures. The amendment would also specify the total allowable catch (TAC) and define interim allocations for gag and vermillion snapper, update management reference points for the two species, and establish measures to reduce bycatch of other snapper grouper species. Since a new benchmark assessment for vermillion snapper is ongoing, this amendment includes an Action that would allow the regional administrator to make the necessary adjustments to management measures to end overfishing. This final EIS addresses alternatives that specify interim allocations for the commercial and recreational sectors for the two species. The amendment would also implement new status determination criteria for gag and vermilion snapper, including maximum sustainable yield (MSY), optimum yield (OY), and minimum stock size threshold, which reflect current scientific information as provided by the assessments and approved by the Scientific and Statistical Committee. In addition, the amendment would include alternatives that would require fishing gear alterations designed to reduce bycatch of nontarget snapper grouper species. The preferred alternatives for gag snapper would establish MSY and OY of 1.22 million pounds, a TAC of 694,000 pounds gutted, a commercial quota of 353,940 pounds gutted, a directed commercial quota allocations of 223,411 pounds gutted for North and South Carolina and 129,529 pounds gutted to Georgia and Florida, and a recreational quota of 340,060 pounds gutted. In addition, the FMP amendment would establish a gag seasonal fishery closure from January through April. Additional preferred recreational measures would reduce the five-grouper aggregate bag limit to three grouper, reduce the existing two gag or black grouper to one gag or black groups within the grouper aggregate bag limit, and prohibit the captain and crew on charter vessels from possessing a bag limit for grouper. The preferred alternatives for vermilion snapper would establish MSY and OY of 2.7 million pounds, an interim TAC of 566,179 million pounds gutted, a commercial quota of 385,002 pounds gutted, a directed commercial quota allocations of 68 percent of the commercial quota for North and South Carolina and 32 percent to Georgia and Florida, and a recreational quota of 201,107 pounds gutted. In addition, the FMP amendment would divide the directed commercial quota into seasons, with 50 percent available from January through June and 50 percent available from July through December, with transfer any remaining quota from the first half of the year to the second half of the year; reduce the bag limit for vermilion snapper from 10 fish to four fish; close the fishery from October through May 15; require specific gear alterations to reduce bycatch of nontarget snapper grouper species for both commercial and recreational fisheries, and allow the regional administrator to adjust the management measures regarding seasonal quotas and associated catch size limits based on the outcome of the ongoing benchmark assessment. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The amendment would either alter current management measures or implement new management measures that would reduce current harvest levels to yields associated with the OY and end overfishing of gag and vermilion snapper in the South Atlantic. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Seasonal closures and reduced allocations could create short-term economic hardships for some commercial operators and recreational charter boat operators. Commercial fishing interests other than vessel operators, particularly fish processing companies, could also experience declines in gross annual revenue due to supply shortages. Gear restrictions would add expense to operating costs of vessel owners. LEGAL MANDATES: Magnuson Fishery Conservation and Management Act of 1976 (16 U.S.C. 1801 et seq.).

AN - 873131100; 14414-0_0009 AB - PURPOSE: The amendment of the fishery management plan (FMP) for the South Atlantic snapper grouper fishery is proposed to address new developments in the gag and vermilion snapper subfisheries. Recent assessments have indicated that the target species are being overfished. Pending the outcome of a new benchmark assessment of vermillion snapper populations, the regional administrator can make adjustments to commercial and recreational management measures. The amendment would also specify the total allowable catch (TAC) and define interim allocations for gag and vermillion snapper, update management reference points for the two species, and establish measures to reduce bycatch of other snapper grouper species. Since a new benchmark assessment for vermillion snapper is ongoing, this amendment includes an Action that would allow the regional administrator to make the necessary adjustments to management measures to end overfishing. This final EIS addresses alternatives that specify interim allocations for the commercial and recreational sectors for the two species. The amendment would also implement new status determination criteria for gag and vermilion snapper, including maximum sustainable yield (MSY), optimum yield (OY), and minimum stock size threshold, which reflect current scientific information as provided by the assessments and approved by the Scientific and Statistical Committee. In addition, the amendment would include alternatives that would require fishing gear alterations designed to reduce bycatch of nontarget snapper grouper species. The preferred alternatives for gag snapper would establish MSY and OY of 1.22 million pounds, a TAC of 694,000 pounds gutted, a commercial quota of 353,940 pounds gutted, a directed commercial quota allocations of 223,411 pounds gutted for North and South Carolina and 129,529 pounds gutted to Georgia and Florida, and a recreational quota of 340,060 pounds gutted. In addition, the FMP amendment would establish a gag seasonal fishery closure from January through April. Additional preferred recreational measures would reduce the five-grouper aggregate bag limit to three grouper, reduce the existing two gag or black grouper to one gag or black groups within the grouper aggregate bag limit, and prohibit the captain and crew on charter vessels from possessing a bag limit for grouper. The preferred alternatives for vermilion snapper would establish MSY and OY of 2.7 million pounds, an interim TAC of 566,179 million pounds gutted, a commercial quota of 385,002 pounds gutted, a directed commercial quota allocations of 68 percent of the commercial quota for North and South Carolina and 32 percent to Georgia and Florida, and a recreational quota of 201,107 pounds gutted. In addition, the FMP amendment would divide the directed commercial quota into seasons, with 50 percent available from January through June and 50 percent available from July through December, with transfer any remaining quota from the first half of the year to the second half of the year; reduce the bag limit for vermilion snapper from 10 fish to four fish; close the fishery from October through May 15; require specific gear alterations to reduce bycatch of nontarget snapper grouper species for both commercial and recreational fisheries, and allow the regional administrator to adjust the management measures regarding seasonal quotas and associated catch size limits based on the outcome of the ongoing benchmark assessment. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The amendment would either alter current management measures or implement new management measures that would reduce current harvest levels to yields associated with the OY and end overfishing of gag and vermilion snapper in the South Atlantic. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Seasonal closures and reduced allocations could create short-term economic hardships for some commercial operators and recreational charter boat operators. Commercial fishing interests other than vessel operators, particularly fish processing companies, could also experience declines in gross annual revenue due to supply shortages. Gear restrictions would add expense to operating costs of vessel owners. LEGAL MANDATES: Magnuson Fishery Conservation and Management Act of 1976 (16 U.S.C. 1801 et seq.).

[Part 1 of 11] T2 - SNAPPER GROUPER AMENDMENT 16 (GAG AND VERMILLION SNAPPER) OF THE SOUTH ATLANTIC REGION. AN - 873129402; 14414-0_0001 AB - PURPOSE: The amendment of the fishery management plan (FMP) for the South Atlantic snapper grouper fishery is proposed to address new developments in the gag and vermilion snapper subfisheries. Recent assessments have indicated that the target species are being overfished. Pending the outcome of a new benchmark assessment of vermillion snapper populations, the regional administrator can make adjustments to commercial and recreational management measures. The amendment would also specify the total allowable catch (TAC) and define interim allocations for gag and vermillion snapper, update management reference points for the two species, and establish measures to reduce bycatch of other snapper grouper species. Since a new benchmark assessment for vermillion snapper is ongoing, this amendment includes an Action that would allow the regional administrator to make the necessary adjustments to management measures to end overfishing. This final EIS addresses alternatives that specify interim allocations for the commercial and recreational sectors for the two species. The amendment would also implement new status determination criteria for gag and vermilion snapper, including maximum sustainable yield (MSY), optimum yield (OY), and minimum stock size threshold, which reflect current scientific information as provided by the assessments and approved by the Scientific and Statistical Committee. In addition, the amendment would include alternatives that would require fishing gear alterations designed to reduce bycatch of nontarget snapper grouper species. The preferred alternatives for gag snapper would establish MSY and OY of 1.22 million pounds, a TAC of 694,000 pounds gutted, a commercial quota of 353,940 pounds gutted, a directed commercial quota allocations of 223,411 pounds gutted for North and South Carolina and 129,529 pounds gutted to Georgia and Florida, and a recreational quota of 340,060 pounds gutted. In addition, the FMP amendment would establish a gag seasonal fishery closure from January through April. Additional preferred recreational measures would reduce the five-grouper aggregate bag limit to three grouper, reduce the existing two gag or black grouper to one gag or black groups within the grouper aggregate bag limit, and prohibit the captain and crew on charter vessels from possessing a bag limit for grouper. The preferred alternatives for vermilion snapper would establish MSY and OY of 2.7 million pounds, an interim TAC of 566,179 million pounds gutted, a commercial quota of 385,002 pounds gutted, a directed commercial quota allocations of 68 percent of the commercial quota for North and South Carolina and 32 percent to Georgia and Florida, and a recreational quota of 201,107 pounds gutted. In addition, the FMP amendment would divide the directed commercial quota into seasons, with 50 percent available from January through June and 50 percent available from July through December, with transfer any remaining quota from the first half of the year to the second half of the year; reduce the bag limit for vermilion snapper from 10 fish to four fish; close the fishery from October through May 15; require specific gear alterations to reduce bycatch of nontarget snapper grouper species for both commercial and recreational fisheries, and allow the regional administrator to adjust the management measures regarding seasonal quotas and associated catch size limits based on the outcome of the ongoing benchmark assessment. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The amendment would either alter current management measures or implement new management measures that would reduce current harvest levels to yields associated with the OY and end overfishing of gag and vermilion snapper in the South Atlantic. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Seasonal closures and reduced allocations could create short-term economic hardships for some commercial operators and recreational charter boat operators. Commercial fishing interests other than vessel operators, particularly fish processing companies, could also experience declines in gross annual revenue due to supply shortages. Gear restrictions would add expense to operating costs of vessel owners. LEGAL MANDATES: Magnuson Fishery Conservation and Management Act of 1976 (16 U.S.C. 1801 et seq.).

[Part 1 of 1] T2 - AMENDMENT 4 TO THE FISHERY MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR THE SPINY LOBSTER FISHERY OF PUERTO RICO AND THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS AND AMENDMENT 8 TO THE SPINY LOBSTER FISHERY MANAGEMENT PLAN OF THE GULF OF MEXICO AND SOUTH ATLANTIC. AN - 873125130; 13650-5_0001 AB - PURPOSE: The amendment of the Spiny Lobster Fishery Management Plan (FMP) for Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands and the spiny lobster FMP for the Gulf of Mexico and the South Atlantic is proposed. The United States is a major importer of spiny lobster, importing over 88,000 tons, worth an estimated $2.27 billion, during the past 10 years. Over 90 percent of those imports came from South and Central American and the Caribbean. Major exporters to the United States are the Bahamas, Brazil, Honduras, and Nicaragua. All of these exporting countries have some form of minimum size requirement, but these requirements are not standardized and enforcement is lacking. Hence, the U.S. lobster industry has asked the governments involved in fishery management to address the harvest and exportation of undersized lobster tails to the United States. The Caribbean, Gulf of Mexico, and South Atlantic Fishery Management Councils are considering regulatory actions to prohibit the importation of spiny lobsters below the Continental and Caribbean U.S. minimum size limits and below the size at first maturity as such importation is adversely affecting recruitment throughout the Florida and Caribbean fisheries due to ineffective distribution and dispersal of larvae. A reduction of fishing effort with respect to undersized lobster and more comprehensive enforcement of FMP restrictions would increase spawning stock biomass and potential stock yield. This final EIS evaluated regulatory and enforcement alternatives to protect spiny lobster, including importation restrictions addressing minimum size limits, egg-bearing spiny lobsters, and tail meat without exoskeletons intact (i.e., unshelled meat). POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed import standards would curtail the flow of undersized lobster harvested in South and Central America and in foreign Caribbean countries. Eliminating the primary market for undersized lobsters would be expected to reduce the harvest of undersized lobsters and increase the spawning stock biomass, thereby improving the long-term potential for maintaining optimal yield within the pan-Caribbean spiny lobster fishery. Moreover, the removal of juvenile lobsters from the U.S. import market would help stabilize the reproductive potential of foreign fisheries. By preventing the importation of unshelled meat, the proposed regulation would allow transparent enforcement of the size restrictions. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The proposed two-pronged regulatory and enforcement approaches would likely result in local economic losses affecting communities dependent on fishing, resulting in significant socioeconomic and related cultural impacts in some cases. In any event, the proposed action would certainly impact individual vessel operators and shellfish processors negatively. Customs administrative and enforcement costs would increase significantly.

The United States is a major importer of spiny lobster, importing over 88,000 tons, worth an estimated $2.27 billion, during the past 10 years. Over 90 percent of those imports came from South and Central American and the Caribbean. Major exporters to the United States are the Bahamas, Brazil, Honduras, and Nicaragua. All of these exporting countries have some form of minimum size requirement, but these requirements are not standardized and enforcement is lacking. Hence, the U.S. lobster industry has asked the governments involved in fishery management to address the harvest and exportation of undersized lobster tails to the United States. The Caribbean, Gulf of Mexico, and South Atlantic Fishery Management Councils are considering regulatory actions to prohibit the importation of spiny lobsters below the Continental and Caribbean U.S. minimum size limits and below the size at first maturity as such importation is adversely affecting recruitment throughout the Florida and Caribbean fisheries due to ineffective distribution and dispersal of larvae. A reduction of fishing effort with respect to undersized lobster and more comprehensive enforcement of FMP restrictions would increase spawning stock biomass and potential stock yield. This final EIS evaluated regulatory and enforcement alternatives to protect spiny lobster, including importation restrictions addressing minimum size limits, egg-bearing spiny lobsters, and tail meat without exoskeletons intact (i.e., unshelled meat). POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed import standards would curtail the flow of undersized lobster harvested in South and Central America and in foreign Caribbean countries. Eliminating the primary market for undersized lobsters would be expected to reduce the harvest of undersized lobsters and increase the spawning stock biomass, thereby improving the long-term potential for maintaining optimal yield within the pan-Caribbean spiny lobster fishery. Moreover, the removal of juvenile lobsters from the U.S. import market would help stabilize the reproductive potential of foreign fisheries. By preventing the importation of unshelled meat, the proposed regulation would allow transparent enforcement of the size restrictions. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The proposed two-pronged regulatory and enforcement approaches would likely result in local economic losses affecting communities dependent on fishing, resulting in significant socioeconomic and related cultural impacts in some cases. In any event, the proposed action would certainly impact individual vessel operators and shellfish processors negatively. Customs administrative and enforcement costs would increase significantly.

Preparation date: October 16, 2008 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - REEF FISH AMENDMENT 30B FOR THE GULF OF MEXICO: GAG -- END OVERFISHING AND SET MANAGEMENT THRESHOLDS; RED GROUPER -- SET OPTIMUM YIELD TAC AND MANAGEMENT MEASURES, AREA CLOSURES, AND FEDERAL REGULATORY COMPLIANCE. AN - 36344573; 13649 AB - PURPOSE: Adjustments of the fishery management plans (FMPs) regulating gag and red grouper within the reef fish fishery of the Gulf of Mexico are proposed through amendment 30B. The status of the Gulf's gag and stock indicates that the species is overfished and undergoing overfishing. The status of the stock is influenced not only by fishing mortality rates in the commercial and recreational gag fisheries, but also by gag bycatch mortality rate. The gag catch and bycatch rates of all fisheries must be substantially reduced to end overfishing. In order to prevent overfishing in the red grouper fishery, optimum yield (OY) must be set and area closures established. Twelve adjustments to the existing FMPs are proposed, as follows: 1) establishment, for gag, of the maximum fishing mortality threshold (overfishing threshold) and maximum stock size threshold (overfished threshold), as well as the target OY; 2) establishment of the total allowable catch (TAC) based on the OY for gag; 3) adjustment of the TAC for red grouper to the equilibrium OY level; 4) establish the commercial and recreational allocations for gag and red grouper stocks based on the full lands time series (1986 though 2005), which provides a robust allocation that reduces the influence of short-term shifts, but may not reflect recent changes in the use of the resource; (5) establishment of shallow-water grouper annual catch limits and accountability measures; 6) establishment of shallow-water grouper, red grouper, and gag commercial quotas; 7) application of quota closures for gag and an incidental harvest trip limit once 80 percent of the species quota is reached; 8) establish recreational harvest levels for both red grouper and gag through a combination of bag limits, size limits, and closed seasons; 9) reduction of regulatory discards on commercial grouper vessels by reducing the minimum size limit on one or more shallow-water grouper species that have a size limit; 10) creation of marine reserves and seasonal time/area closures for gag; 11) establish a mechanism to determine the duration of marine reserve status and area closures; (12)establishment of a requirement that vessels with federal commercial or charter reef fish permits comply with the more restrictive of state or federal reef fish regulations with fishing in state waters. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The amendment would effectively address stock rebuilding and overfishing of red grouper and gag in the Gulf. Enough commercial and recreational fishing would be allowed to maintain economic and cultural viability of the fisheries. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Harvest limits, including TAC and bag and size limits and the like, and area closures and the establishment of marine reserves would reduce the commercial viability of commercial and recreational vessel operators somewhat and, in some cases, could result in significant economic losses. Similarly, bycatch limits and associated fishing gear restrictions, resulting in reduced harvests, would place economic stress on some vessel operators in both the shrimp and snapper fisheries.

AN - 69751005; 18983093 AB - We recently introduced several important improvements in the measurement of distillation curves of complex fluids. The modifications to the classical measurement provide for (1) a composition-explicit data channel for each distillate fraction (for both qualitative and quantitative analysis), (2) temperature measurements that are true thermodynamic state points that can be modeled with an equation of state, (3) temperature, volume, and pressure measurements of low uncertainty suitable for equation of state development, (4) consistency with a century of historical data, (5) an assessment of the energy content of each distillate fraction, (6) trace chemical analysis of each distillate fraction, and (7) corrosivity assessment of each distillate fraction. We have applied the new method to the measurement of rocket propellant, gasolines, jet fuels, and hydrocarbon crude oils. In this paper we presentthe application of the technique to representative diesel fuel and mixtures of diesel fuel with some of the more promising oxygenating agents; namely, the glycol ethers and glycol esters: tri(propylene glycol) methyl ether (TPM), dibutyl maleate (DBM), and an 80/ 20 (vol/vol) mixture of diethylene glycol methyl ether (DGME) + 1,2-dimethoxyethane (DME) a mixture often referred to as Cetaner. We present not only the distillation curves but also a chemical characterization of each fraction, and discuss the contrasts between the various mixtures. The measurements are significant as an environmental design tool for decreased particulate emissions.

AN - 873133134; 14524-4_0012 AB - PURPOSE: Strategies for attempting to restore the population of oysters throughout the Chesapeake Bay using native and/or nonnative species are proposed. The Bay's oyster population is estimated to be less than one percent of its size during the 19th century. Recent population decline is attributed to the introduction of two foreign diseases, Dermo and MSX, to which the native Eastern oyster initially had no resistance. Harvest, degradation of habitat, and poor water quality are also affecting oysters negatively. A programmatic evaluation of a proposal to introduce the nonnative Suminoe oyster to Chesapeake Bay while continuing efforts to restore the native Eastern oyster was determined to be appropriate due to the complexity and geographic scale of such a program. The Suminoe oyster is a native of the China Sea that has environmental requirements and tolerances similar to those of the Eastern oyster, but is resistant to Dermo and MSX. In addition to the proposed action, five individual alternatives that would involve one or more oyster species, individually or together, are evaluated in this draft programmatic EIS. Rather than specific proposals, representative and reasonably realistic implementation plans for the proposed action and each alternative are used as the basis for analyzing potential adverse effects and benefits. The No Action Alternative (Alternative 1) would continue present native oyster restoration programs under current program and resource management policies and available funding. Other alternatives include enhanced restoration efforts to restore the native oyster, a harvest moratorium, and aquaculture operations using the native oyster or the nonnative oyster. Three combinations of alternatives are also presented. Alternatives 8a, 8b, and 8c would all enhance efforts to restore Eastern oysters, impose a temporary harvest moratorium and a compensation program for the oyster industries, and cultivate Eastern oysters. Alternatives 8b and 8c would also cultivate triploid Suminoe oysters. Additionally, Alternative 8c would also introduce diploid Suminoe oysters into the Chesapeake Bay. The enhanced native oyster restoration activities could differ substantially from traditional restoration programs and the level of activity would be substantially greater. POSITIVE IMPACTS: A successful strategy would restore the ecological role of oysters in the Bay and the economic benefits of a commercial fishery. A population of native oysters and/or an ecologically compatible nonnative oyster species could reach a level of abundance that would support sustainable harvests comparable to earlier harvest levels. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Introduction of a population of diploid, reproducing nonnative oysters would be irreversible and would pose the risk of adverse ecological consequences. The likelihood of success of the proposed introduction and its ability to produce a large, self-sustaining population of Suminoe oysters throughout the Bay is uncertain. The Suminoe oyster would likely compete with the native oyster and the outcome could range from local extinction of either species to mixed-species reefs. The Suminoe oyster has a greater tendency to concentrate contaminants than the native oyster.

[Part 10 of 19] T2 - OYSTER RESTORATION IN CHESAPEAKE BAY INCLUDING THE USE OF A NATIVE AND/OR NONNATIVE OYSTER, MARYLAND AND VIRGINIA (DRAFT PROGRAMMATIC ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT). AN - 873133120; 14524-4_0010 AB - PURPOSE: Strategies for attempting to restore the population of oysters throughout the Chesapeake Bay using native and/or nonnative species are proposed. The Bay's oyster population is estimated to be less than one percent of its size during the 19th century. Recent population decline is attributed to the introduction of two foreign diseases, Dermo and MSX, to which the native Eastern oyster initially had no resistance. Harvest, degradation of habitat, and poor water quality are also affecting oysters negatively. A programmatic evaluation of a proposal to introduce the nonnative Suminoe oyster to Chesapeake Bay while continuing efforts to restore the native Eastern oyster was determined to be appropriate due to the complexity and geographic scale of such a program. The Suminoe oyster is a native of the China Sea that has environmental requirements and tolerances similar to those of the Eastern oyster, but is resistant to Dermo and MSX. In addition to the proposed action, five individual alternatives that would involve one or more oyster species, individually or together, are evaluated in this draft programmatic EIS. Rather than specific proposals, representative and reasonably realistic implementation plans for the proposed action and each alternative are used as the basis for analyzing potential adverse effects and benefits. The No Action Alternative (Alternative 1) would continue present native oyster restoration programs under current program and resource management policies and available funding. Other alternatives include enhanced restoration efforts to restore the native oyster, a harvest moratorium, and aquaculture operations using the native oyster or the nonnative oyster. Three combinations of alternatives are also presented. Alternatives 8a, 8b, and 8c would all enhance efforts to restore Eastern oysters, impose a temporary harvest moratorium and a compensation program for the oyster industries, and cultivate Eastern oysters. Alternatives 8b and 8c would also cultivate triploid Suminoe oysters. Additionally, Alternative 8c would also introduce diploid Suminoe oysters into the Chesapeake Bay. The enhanced native oyster restoration activities could differ substantially from traditional restoration programs and the level of activity would be substantially greater. POSITIVE IMPACTS: A successful strategy would restore the ecological role of oysters in the Bay and the economic benefits of a commercial fishery. A population of native oysters and/or an ecologically compatible nonnative oyster species could reach a level of abundance that would support sustainable harvests comparable to earlier harvest levels. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Introduction of a population of diploid, reproducing nonnative oysters would be irreversible and would pose the risk of adverse ecological consequences. The likelihood of success of the proposed introduction and its ability to produce a large, self-sustaining population of Suminoe oysters throughout the Bay is uncertain. The Suminoe oyster would likely compete with the native oyster and the outcome could range from local extinction of either species to mixed-species reefs.

AN - 873132224; 14524-4_0019 AB - PURPOSE: Strategies for attempting to restore the population of oysters throughout the Chesapeake Bay using native and/or nonnative species are proposed. The Bay's oyster population is estimated to be less than one percent of its size during the 19th century. Recent population decline is attributed to the introduction of two foreign diseases, Dermo and MSX, to which the native Eastern oyster initially had no resistance. Harvest, degradation of habitat, and poor water quality are also affecting oysters negatively. A programmatic evaluation of a proposal to introduce the nonnative Suminoe oyster to Chesapeake Bay while continuing efforts to restore the native Eastern oyster was determined to be appropriate due to the complexity and geographic scale of such a program. The Suminoe oyster is a native of the China Sea that has environmental requirements and tolerances similar to those of the Eastern oyster, but is resistant to Dermo and MSX. In addition to the proposed action, five individual alternatives that would involve one or more oyster species, individually or together, are evaluated in this draft programmatic EIS. Rather than specific proposals, representative and reasonably realistic implementation plans for the proposed action and each alternative are used as the basis for analyzing potential adverse effects and benefits. The No Action Alternative (Alternative 1) would continue present native oyster restoration programs under current program and resource management policies and available funding. Other alternatives include enhanced restoration efforts to restore the native oyster, a harvest moratorium, and aquaculture operations using the native oyster or the nonnative oyster. Three combinations of alternatives are also presented. Alternatives 8a, 8b, and 8c would all enhance efforts to restore Eastern oysters, impose a temporary harvest moratorium and a compensation program for the oyster industries, and cultivate Eastern oysters. Alternatives 8b and 8c would also cultivate triploid Suminoe oysters. Additionally, Alternative 8c would also introduce diploid Suminoe oysters into the Chesapeake Bay. The enhanced native oyster restoration activities could differ substantially from traditional restoration programs and the level of activity would be substantially greater. POSITIVE IMPACTS: A successful strategy would restore the ecological role of oysters in the Bay and the economic benefits of a commercial fishery. A population of native oysters and/or an ecologically compatible nonnative oyster species could reach a level of abundance that would support sustainable harvests comparable to earlier harvest levels. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Introduction of a population of diploid, reproducing nonnative oysters would be irreversible and would pose the risk of adverse ecological consequences. The likelihood of success of the proposed introduction and its ability to produce a large, self-sustaining population of Suminoe oysters throughout the Bay is uncertain. The Suminoe oyster would likely compete with the native oyster and the outcome could range from local extinction of either species to mixed-species reefs.

AN - 873131496; 14524-4_0006 AB - PURPOSE: Strategies for attempting to restore the population of oysters throughout the Chesapeake Bay using native and/or nonnative species are proposed. The Bay's oyster population is estimated to be less than one percent of its size during the 19th century. Recent population decline is attributed to the introduction of two foreign diseases, Dermo and MSX, to which the native Eastern oyster initially had no resistance. Harvest, degradation of habitat, and poor water quality are also affecting oysters negatively. A programmatic evaluation of a proposal to introduce the nonnative Suminoe oyster to Chesapeake Bay while continuing efforts to restore the native Eastern oyster was determined to be appropriate due to the complexity and geographic scale of such a program. The Suminoe oyster is a native of the China Sea that has environmental requirements and tolerances similar to those of the Eastern oyster, but is resistant to Dermo and MSX. In addition to the proposed action, five individual alternatives that would involve one or more oyster species, individually or together, are evaluated in this draft programmatic EIS. Rather than specific proposals, representative and reasonably realistic implementation plans for the proposed action and each alternative are used as the basis for analyzing potential adverse effects and benefits. The No Action Alternative (Alternative 1) would continue present native oyster restoration programs under current program and resource management policies and available funding. Other alternatives include enhanced restoration efforts to restore the native oyster, a harvest moratorium, and aquaculture operations using the native oyster or the nonnative oyster. Three combinations of alternatives are also presented. Alternatives 8a, 8b, and 8c would all enhance efforts to restore Eastern oysters, impose a temporary harvest moratorium and a compensation program for the oyster industries, and cultivate Eastern oysters. Alternatives 8b and 8c would also cultivate triploid Suminoe oysters. Additionally, Alternative 8c would also introduce diploid Suminoe oysters into the Chesapeake Bay. The enhanced native oyster restoration activities could differ substantially from traditional restoration programs and the level of activity would be substantially greater. POSITIVE IMPACTS: A successful strategy would restore the ecological role of oysters in the Bay and the economic benefits of a commercial fishery. A population of native oysters and/or an ecologically compatible nonnative oyster species could reach a level of abundance that would support sustainable harvests comparable to earlier harvest levels. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Introduction of a population of diploid, reproducing nonnative oysters would be irreversible and would pose the risk of adverse ecological consequences. The likelihood of success of the proposed introduction and its ability to produce a large, self-sustaining population of Suminoe oysters throughout the Bay is uncertain. The Suminoe oyster would likely compete with the native oyster and the outcome could range from local extinction of either species to mixed-species reefs.

A diminutive relative of the sperm whale and difficult to identify in the field, it is 1 of only 2 members of the genus Kogia. It is endemic to offshore waters of the Pacific, Atlantic, and Indian oceans in temperate and tropical regions. It is considered solitary and deep-diving in pursuit of cephalopod prey. Abundance is poorly known, although it is protected under U.S. federal and international law. No specimens have ever been maintained permanently in captivity, and, temporary holding of stranded individuals has rarely been nonlethal.

A programmatic evaluation of a proposal to introduce the nonnative Suminoe oyster to Chesapeake Bay while continuing efforts to restore the native Eastern oyster was determined to be appropriate due to the complexity and geographic scale of such a program. The Suminoe oyster is a native of the China Sea that has environmental requirements and tolerances similar to those of the Eastern oyster, but is resistant to Dermo and MSX. In addition to the proposed action, five individual alternatives that would involve one or more oyster species, individually or together, are evaluated in this draft programmatic EIS. Rather than specific proposals, representative and reasonably realistic implementation plans for the proposed action and each alternative are used as the basis for analyzing potential adverse effects and benefits. The No Action Alternative (Alternative 1) would continue present native oyster restoration programs under current program and resource management policies and available funding. Other alternatives include enhanced restoration efforts to restore the native oyster, a harvest moratorium, and aquaculture operations using the native oyster or the nonnative oyster. Three combinations of alternatives are also presented. Alternatives 8a, 8b, and 8c would all enhance efforts to restore Eastern oysters, impose a temporary harvest moratorium and a compensation program for the oyster industries, and cultivate Eastern oysters. Alternatives 8b and 8c would also cultivate triploid Suminoe oysters. Additionally, Alternative 8c would also introduce diploid Suminoe oysters into the Chesapeake Bay. The enhanced native oyster restoration activities could differ substantially from traditional restoration programs and the level of activity would be substantially greater. POSITIVE IMPACTS: A successful strategy would restore the ecological role of oysters in the Bay and the economic benefits of a commercial fishery. A population of native oysters and/or an ecologically compatible nonnative oyster species could reach a level of abundance that would support sustainable harvests comparable to earlier harvest levels. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Introduction of a population of diploid, reproducing nonnative oysters would be irreversible and would pose the risk of adverse ecological consequences. The likelihood of success of the proposed introduction and its ability to produce a large, self-sustaining population of Suminoe oysters throughout the Bay is uncertain. The Suminoe oyster would likely compete with the native oyster and the outcome could range from local extinction of either species to mixed-species reefs. The Suminoe oyster has a greater tendency to concentrate contaminants than the native oyster.

This acidification makes it more difficult for marine organisms (e.g., corals, plankton, calcareous algae, and mollusks) to build skeletons, tests, and shells of calcium carbonate. Impacts on these calcifying organisms will lead to cascading effects throughout marine ecosystems. Repeat hydrographic cruises and modeling studies in the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian Oceans show evidence for increased ocean acidification. Dissolved inorganic carbon increases, of about 10 (super 15) mu mol kg (super -1) in surface and intermediate waters over the past 15 years, are consistent with corresponding pH decreases of approximately 0.025 units in surface waters. These dramatic changes can be attributed, in most part, to anthropogenic CO (sub 2) uptake by the ocean. High frequency and long term variability of inorganic carbon parameters is of particular interest in coral reef ecosystems because changes in these parameters have implications for calcification and dissolution and limited data exist for coral reefs and other coastal systems. A Coral Reef Instrumented Monitoring and CO (sub 2) Platform (CRIMP-CO (sub 2) ) mooring has collected surface water temperature, salinity, pCO (sub 2) , pO (sub 2) and air pCO (sub 2) and pO (sub 2) data every three hours almost continuously since December 2005 in Kaneohe Bay, Hawaii. All measured values showed significant variability over a range of time scales. Surface water pCO (sub 2) ranged from 230 to 590 mu atm but was generally higher than atmospheric due to net calcification and surface water saturation state with respect to aragonite varied from 1.2 to 3.5 with low values occurring during storm fresh water input. Our results indicate that the variability of inorganic carbon parameters in coral reef systems is significantly greater than what is shown by extrapolating open ocean model results to the coastal regime.

An educational agreement has been established between NOAA OR&R and the School of Plant, Environmental and Soil Sciences at Louisiana State University. The partnership aims to improve the quality of the Environmental Management Systems undergraduate program by incorporating problem-based learning related to coastal environmental issues. The partnership should benefit NOAA OR&R by raising its profile in the community, and increasing the number of people who choose education and careers supporting NOAA's mission. Several classroom activities were designed to illustrate the complexity of environmental management and to inform students about environmental career options. NOAA OR&R educational materials, such as Environmental Sensitivity Indices (ESI) and toxicology Screening Quick Reference Tables (QuiRTS) were used in two environmental management classes. A Web presentation, "Responding to Disasters," was produced to inform students and the public how NOAA combines Weather Service capabilities with trajectory and mapping tools, such as CAMEO applications, for immediate response to large chemical and oil spills. Guest lecturers from NOAA spoke to classes about careers in environmental science and about NOAA's environmental mission. As part of a special topics class, an undergraduate environmental management major developed two scenarios for an upper-level class project. Students worked in groups to investigate chemical, biological, and social aspects of oil spills. Results from class essays and projects suggest that students understand the role that NOAA and other federal agencies play in emergency response to chemical spills and in the long-term stewardship of coastal areas and that students are aware of career opportunities afforded by such federal agencies.

To assess the quality of new modeled estimates of health insurance based on a federal survey. Data Sources/Study Setting. The study uses data from the Annual Social and Economic Supplements to the Current Population Survey (CPS ASEC), calendar years 2001-2003. Health insurance estimates for low-income populations are analyzed. Study Design. To assess a method for making estimates for uninsured low-income persons, survey estimates of low-income children are compared with modeled estimates. Inferences can be drawn from this comparison and the method is extended to account for demographic groups. Data Collection. Data for 2001-2002 CPS ASEC were self-tabulated for low-income children aged 0-17. A special tabulation of the CPS ASEC was used to categorize the numbers of uninsured by age, race, sex, and Hispanic origin by low income at the state level. This special tabulation was the underlying data for the model. Principal Findings. The modeled estimates reduce the variance and margin of error substantially compared with the survey estimates. Conclusions. These health insurance estimates are credible and increase the precision for the low-income uninsured population. They have broad uses for policy makers and program administrators who focus on the uninsured in special populations. Adapted from the source document.

Water managers are developing ASR programs to help address these issues and to meet increasing future demand. The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with Los Angeles County and the Antelope Valley-East Kern Water Agency, monitored a pilot ASR program, analyzed the hydraulic and poroelastic effects on the aquifer system, and developed a simulation/optimization model to help plan a full-scale ASR program for the Lancaster area. A ground-water flow model of the Lancaster region was developed and linked to linear optimization tools to identify optimal injection and extraction timing and distribution among 16 existing and 13 proposed wells. Previous GPS surveys and InSAR results showed that northern Lancaster is most susceptible to subsidence despite greater historical drawdowns in the southern area. The objective of the optimization was to maximize minimum head, which effectively minimized loss of well production capacity in the southern area. Constraints were imposed on maximum and minimum heads (a surrogate for subsidence). Injection and extraction capacities, availability of injection water, groundwater demand, and the distribution of stresses between model layers were also constrained. The ASR program management scenarios optimized ranged from maintaining present practices (no injection) to allowing six months of injection per year in all 29 wells. Simulation/optimization model results suggest that optimal use of existing wells cannot maintain water levels in the southern area; phased installation of the proposed wells would be needed within a ten-year period to maintain production capacity and avoid triggering additional subsidence. Results also suggest that continued use of wells in the subsidence area, made possible by injection, would be needed to maintain extraction capacities in the southern area.

Hence, any viable conservation strategy must include mitigation of this risk. In particular, the critical wintering habitat off the Atlantic shores of the southeastern United States overlaps with the shipping routes of some of the region's busiest ports. As a first step in the process of ship strike risk mitigation for this region, we estimated the risk associated with current patterns of shipping traffic, and compared this with estimates of risk for a set of hypothetical alternative routes. As a measure of risk, we selected the co-occurrence of whales and vessels within cells of a 4 km grid. We performed parametric estimation of whale encounter rate and associated risk within a Bayesian hierarchical model, using data from aerial surveys and the Mandatory Ship Reporting System of the SE United States, along with a selection of environmental covariates. Importantly, we were able to account for annual and monthly variation in encounters in our estimates. All alternative routes provided reduced overall risk, ranging from a 27 to 44% reduction, relative to the estimated risk of observed traffic. The largest marginal gains in risk reduction were attained by restricting traffic associated with the busiest port, Jacksonville, Florida, but restrictions on all ports achieved the highest reduction. We emphasize the importance of accounting for temporal as well as spatial variation in whale encounter rates, given the migratory behavior of the species.

AN - 69685425; 18768218 AB - The distribution of perfluoroalkyl compounds (PFCs) in the environment is well documented with higher concentrations observed in wildlife located in industrial and urban areas. This study examined the distribution of PFCs in relation to land use using blood samples collected from bottlenose dolphins during capture-release health assessment surveys conducted in Charleston, SC. The study area was partitioned into three subareas (ACW, CHS, and SRE) based upon habitat and land use characteristics. The ACW and CHS subareas are characterized by high degrees of industrial and urban land uses, while the SRE subarea is more residential and characterized by a lower degree of developed land use. Long-term monitoring data from photo-identification surveys were used to group bottlenose dolphins based on their proportions of sightings in the different subareas. Dolphins affiliated with both the ACW and CHS subareas were observed to have significantly higher mean plasma concentrations of perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), perfluorodecanoic acid (PFDA) and perfluoroundecanoic acid (PFUnA) than those affiliated with the SRE subarea. Dolphins affiliated with the ACW subarea were found to have a significantly higher mean plasma concentration of PFUnA than those affiliated with the CHS subarea. Further examination of the distribution of the PFCs revealed positive correlations with developed land uses and negative correlations with wetland/marsh land cover. A positive correlation was also observed between PFUnA and agricultural land use. The variability and scale of the observed contaminant burdens have important implications for the conservation and management of living marine resources and illustrates the importance of long-term monitoring of free-ranging wildlife species.

R. Owen using a soil-related parameter "A" that gave us the possibility of expressing limitation of sand grains of saltation-size in the underlying soil. The value of "A" was set equal to the ratio of the horizontal flux of saltating particles to Owen's function of wind, times air density divided by gravitational acceleration. Values of A can be used to: (1) characterize the efficiency of the wind to move sand by saltation for different soil textures and aggregations; and (2) to make practical predictions of sand movement based on the condition of the surface soil. Values for A in a range from 1 to 10 are usually associated with supply-unlimited saltation and are usually associated with loose, sandy-textured soils. Values for A in a range from 0.25 to 1 are associated with finer soils that contain more silt and clay. The range of A values between 0 and 0.25 usually reflects finer textured soils that are packed, aggregated, or crusted. A decrease of A to a smaller value is a sign of supply limitation and usually to the soil changing from a looser state to a more aggregated state or more depleted state.

Extensive water column and seafloor work using both standard CTD and deep submergence AUV and ROV deployments led to the discovery and sampling of the "Drachenschlund" ("Dragon Throat") black smoker vent at 8 degrees 17.87' S/13 degrees 30.45' W in 2915 m water depth. The vent is flanked by several inactive chimney structures in a field we have named "Nibelungen". The site is located 6 km south of a non-transform offset between two adjacent 2nd-order ridge-segments and 9 km east of the presently-active, northward-propagating A2 ridge-segment, on a prominent outward-facing fault scarp. Both vent-fluid compositions and host-rock analyses show this site to be an ultramafic-hosted system, the first of its kind to be found on the southern MAR. The thermal output of this single vent, based on plume rise-height information, is estimated to be 60+ or -15 MW. This value is high for a single "black smoker" vent but small for an entire field. The tectonic setting and low He content of the vent fluids imply that high-temperature off-axis venting at "Drachenschlund" is driven not by magmatic processes, as at the majority of on-axis hydrothermal systems, but by residual heat "mined" from the deeper lithosphere. Whether this heat is being extracted from high-temperature mantle peridotites or deep crustal cumulates formed at the "duelling" non-transfrom offset is unclear, in either case the Drachenschlund vent provides the first direct observations of how cooling of deeper parts of the lithosphere, at least at slow-spreading ridges, may be occurring.

Measurements of the mixing ratio and delta (super 13) C in CH (sub 4) are reported from air and water samples collected at eight sites in the Danube Delta. High mixing ratios of CH (sub 4) were found in air (2500-14,000 ppb) and dissolved in water samples ( approximately 1-10mu mol L (super -1) ), demonstrating that the Danube Delta is an important natural source of CH (sub 4) . The intercepts on Keeling plots of about -62 ppm show that the main source of CH (sub 4) in this region is microbial, probably resulting primarily from acetate fermentation. Atmospheric CH (sub 4) and CO data from the NOAA/ESRL (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration/Earth System Research Laboratory) were used to make a preliminary estimate of biogenic CH (sub 4) at the Black Sea sampling site at Constanta (BSC). These data were used to calculate ratios of CH (sub 4) /CO in air samples, and using an assumed CH (sub 4) /CO anthropogenic emissions ratio of 0.6, fossil fuel emissions at BSC were estimated. Biogenic CH (sub 4) emissions were then estimated by a simple mass balance approach. Keeling plots of well-mixed air from the BSC site suggested a stronger wetland source in summer and a stronger fossil fuel source in winter.

The August 31, 1886 earthquake had an estimated magnitude of 6.9 to 7.3 and was felt over 2.5 million square miles. Earthquake events have been documented in South Carolina since 1698. Seventy percent of these are located in the Middleton Place-Summerville Seismic Zone (MPSSZ), 30 kilometers northwest of downtown Charleston. 137 earthquakes were located in the MPSSZ from 1996 through 2003. The risk from a reoccurrence of an earthquake of magnitude 6 or higher within the region is greater now due to changes in land use and population growth. Major hazards due to ground shaking and liquefaction during an 1886 style event could lead to an estimated 14 billion dollars of damage and potentially 900 fatalities with 45,000 injuries. HAZUS-MH provides state and local decision makers with a better understanding of the types and magnitudes of the natural hazards. It is dependent on and sensitive to the quality of information that is used to determine the degree of hazards. The Earthquake module in HAZUS-MH requires information derived from the NEHRP (National Earthquake Hazard Reduction Program) soil maps in order to determine the extent of the hazards due to ground shaking and liquefaction. Small changes in the NEHRP soil maps can lead to major differences in the final HAZUS-MH determination and lead to better estimates for emergency managers and planners. This paper looks at the sensitivity of the HAZUS methodology to the resolution and accuracy of the NEHRP soil maps. Additionally, the authors provide a methodology for creating revised NEHRP soils maps for the Charleston region.

Within the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), National Geodetic Survey (NGS) has the responsibility to define, maintain and provide access to the U.S. National Spatial Reference System (NSRS) to meet the nation's economic, social and environmental needs. The NSRS and NOAA observing systems provide a foundation upon which localized studies of subsidence can take place and give a more accurate measure of "true" local relative sea level rise that is required for climate change adaptation and mitigation strategies. The critical aspect of the NSRS for subsidence monitoring is the vertical datum by which heights are defined and related to local water levels. Height Modernization is a NOAA program that combines recent advances in Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) technology, with traditional surveying techniques to update the vertical component of the NSRS. NOAA conducts Height Modernization efforts throughout the country to improve coastal and inland elevations and provide essential infrastructure that supports commerce and enhances community resilience. One of the important uses of Height Modernization in coastal areas is to measure rates of subsidence which influence local rates of relative sea level rise. NGS works with other NOAA offices to tie long-term tide stations and Surface Elevation Tables (SETs) to geodetic infrastructure and provide integrated data on the changing land-water interface. These data are being applied to coastal issues such as sea level rise, habitat restoration, storm surge modeling, and hazard preparedness and response. Understanding the magnitude of local land movement and water level changes can inform development policy, permitting processes, and coastal restoration activities, which in turn can increase the resilience of coastal communities in the face of coastal hazards.

In the Western Basin, these currents have formed dendritic drainage systems characterized by branching patterns of low-backscatter on the seafloor that exceed 7.4 km in length. The channels progressively combine and widen down-slope, reaching widths of over 0.6 km at their southern distal ends. Although much smaller, similar patterns are also present in the northwestern part of the Central Basin. Bathymetric gradients along the lengths of these systems are low (slightly less than 0.2 degrees) and relatively constant. Sediment samples collected from within the channels and on the surrounding seafloor were mud (primarily clayey silt), but the areas could not be clearly differentiated based on texture. Earlier work has shown that intense benthic biological reworking, coupled with resuspension due to wave- and current-induced bottom stress, is responsible for the formation of the Sound's sediment-laden near-bottom nepheloid layer. Our work suggests that the density contrast between the heavier nepheloid layer and the lighter ambient seawater subsequently creates an instability that causes the layer to flow down-slope across the seafloor. The extent and widespread occurrence of the dendritic patterns suggest that the density currents are a significant, previously unrecognized, persistent process by which fine-grained sediments are remobilized, transported, and dispersed in the basins of central and western Long Island Sound. Because many contaminants preferentially adsorb onto fine-grained organic-rich sediments and because the sound is affected by seasonal hypoxia, mechanisms and dispersal pathways by which these fine-grained sediments are transported are important factors determining the eventual fate of contaminants and their potential impact on the environmental health of the estuary.

Examples are public research that yields knowledge spillovers and government contracts that broker new research. Using this definition we explore the effect of public infrastructure on cooperative R&D, especially R&D sourcing and research joint ventures (RJVs). Our findings strongly suggest that public infrastructure promotes cooperative R&D. We begin by studying the role of federal laboratories in R&D sourcing by private laboratories, finding that sourcing increases as a result. Then we examine patents arising from RJVs sponsored by the Advanced Technology Program (ATP). We find that R&D subsidies as well as difficulty and novelty increase patents produced by the RJVs. Contractual oversight by ATP has no direct effect but an indirect effect appears to exist, since firms value ATP oversight more highly for more difficult and novel projects, and these produce more patents.

Previous models treat technology as a homogeneous entity, thereby precluding assessing investment barriers affecting infrastructure elements. The model presented overcomes this deficiency by disaggregating the knowledge production function into key elements of the typical industrial technology based on the distinctly different investment incentives associated with each element. Without such a model, the economist's ability to assess important market failures associated with investment in the major technology elements, including those with infrastructure (public-good) characteristics, is compromised. Unfortunately, even with the correct knowledge production function, the required data are difficult to collect. This forces government agencies, which fund a majority of technology infrastructure research, to use second-best approaches for economic analyses. The second half of this paper therefore presents an analytical framework that can be driven by more accessible data and provide reasonable impact assessments until better data become available.

Bacteria are extremely abundant in these environments and accumulate in large numbers in filter-feeding oysters, which can act as passive carriers of human pathogens. Although hypercapnic hypoxia (HH) can affect certain specific immune mechanisms, its direct effect on the inactivation, degradation and elimination of bacteria in oysters is unknown. This research was conducted to determine whether exposure to HH reduces the ability of C. virginica to inactivate and eliminate Vibrio campbellii following its injection into the adductor muscle. Oysters were held in fully air-saturated (normoxic; partial O2 pressure [PO2] = 20.7 kPa, CO2 < 0.06 kPa, pH 7.8 to 8.0) or HH (PO2 = 4 kPa, CO2 = 1.8 kPa, pH 6.5 to 6.8) seawater at 25C for 4 h before being injected in the adductor muscle with 105 live Vibrio campbellii bacteria and remained under these conditions for the remainder of the experiment (up to 24 h postinjection). Real-time PCR was used to quantify the number of intact V. campbellii bacteria, while selective plating was used to quantify the number of injected bacteria remaining culturable in whole-oyster tissues, seawater, and feces/pseudofeces at 0, 1, 4, and 24 h postinjection. We found that oysters maintained under normoxic conditions were very efficient at inactivating and degrading large numbers of injected bacteria within their tissues. Moreover, a small percentage (10%) of injected bacteria were passed into the surrounding seawater, while less than 1% were recovered in the feces/pseudofeces. In contrast, HH increased the percentage of culturable bacteria recovered from the tissues of oysters, suggesting an overall decrease in bacteriostasis. We suggest that poor water quality may increase the risk that oysters will harbor and transmit bacterial pathogens hazardous to human and ecosystem health.

This study explores how the substitution of ethyl alpha -hydroxymethylacryate (EHMA) for 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) in photo-activated 2,2-bis[p-(2'-hydroxy-3'-methacryloxypropoxy)phenyl]p ropane (Bis-GMA) and Bis-GMA/tri(ethylene glycol) dimethacrylate (TEGDMA) resins affected selected physicochemical properties of the polymers and their amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) composites. Rate of polymerization and the degree of conversion (DC) of polymers {EHMA (E), HEMA (H), Bis-GMA/EHMA (BE), Bis-GMA/HEMA (BH), Bis-GMA/TEGDMA/EHMA (BTE) and Bis-GMA/TEGDMA/HEMA (BTH)} were assessed by photo-differential scanning calorimetry and Fourier-Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. ACP/BTE and ACP/BTH composites were evaluated for DC, biaxial flexure strength (BFS), water sorption (WS) and mineral ion release. Mid-FTIR and near-IR measurements revealed the following order of decreasing DC: [E, H polymers (97.0%)]>[BE copolymer (89.9%)]>[BH copolymer (86.2%)]>[BTE, BTH copolymers (85.5%)]>[ACP/BTH composite (82.6%)]>[ACP/BTE composite (79.3%)]. Compared to HEMA, EHMA did not adversely affect the BFS of its copolymers and/or ACP composites. Lower WS of BTE copolymers and composites (28% and 14%, respectively, compared to the BTH copolymers and composites) only marginal reduced the ion release from ACP/BTE composites compared to ACP/BTH composites. More hydrophobic ACP composites with acceptable ion-releasing properties were developed by substituting the less hydrophilic EHMA for HEMA.

The seasonal cycle and variations of inundation extent over the Ob, the Yenissey, and the Lena basins for the period 1993-2000 show different spatial and temporal behaviors due to different climate and permafrost conditions. Using in-situ discharges collected at the outlets of the three basins, we analyze and quantify the relationships between the river streamflow and the monthly satellite-derived inundation extent during the spring/summer periods. Furthermore, we analyze extreme (high/low) streamflow cases for some years and the associated inundation conditions for the three watersheds and link these cases with other climatic parameters such as the snow water equivalent, temperatures, and precipitation. The results of this study demonstrate that the monthly multi-satellite-derived inundation dataset brings a new useful tool for better understanding both the streamflow processes and the description of the snow-inundation-runoff relations in data scarce areas like the remote Arctic river basins.

The protein, 90-MtCM, exhibits Michaelis-Menten kinetics with a k sub(cat) of 5.5c0.2s super(-1) and a K sub(m) of 1500c100km at 37C and pH7.5. The 2.0Aa X-ray structure shows that 90-MtCM is an all a-helical homodimer (Protein Data Bank ID: 2QBV) with the topology of Escherichiacoli CM (EcCM), and that both protomers contribute to each catalytic site. Superimposition onto the structure of EcCM and the sequence alignment shows that the C-terminus helix3 is shortened. The absence of two residues in the active site of 90-MtCM corresponding to Ser84 and Gln88 of EcCM appears to be one reason for the low k sub(cat). Hence, 90-MtCM belongs to a subfamily of a-helical AroQ CMs termed AroQ sub(d.) The CM gene (y2828) from Yersiniapestis encodes a 186 amino acid protein with an N-terminal signal peptide that directs the protein to the periplasm. The mature protein, *YpCM, exhibits Michaelis-Menten kinetics with a k sub(cat) of 70c5s super(-1) and K sub(m) of 500c50km at 37C and pH7.5. The 2.1Aa X-ray structure shows that *YpCM is an all a-helical protein, and functions as a homodimer, and that each protomer has an independent catalytic unit (Protein Data Bank ID: 2GBB). *YpCM belongs to the AroQ sub(g) class of CMs, and is similar to the secreted CM (Rv1885c, *MtCM) from M.tuberculosis.

High temporal resolution volumetric radar data are a necessity for rapid identification and confirmation of weather phenomena that can develop within minutes. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the PAR's ability to collect rapid-scan volumetric data that provide more detailed depictions of quickly evolving storm structures than the WSR-88D. Scientific advantages of higher temporal resolution PAR data are examined for three convective storms that occurred during the spring and summer of 2006, including a reintensifying supercell, a microburst, and a hailstorm. The analysis of the reintensifying supercell (58-s updates) illustrates the capability to diagnose the detailed evolution of developing and/or intensifying areas of 1) low-altitude divergence and rotation and 2) rotation through the depth of the storm. The fuller sampling of the microburst's storm life cycle (34-s updates) depicts precursors to the strong surface outflow that are essentially indiscernible in the WSR-88D data. Furthermore, the 34-s scans provide a more precise sampling of peak outflow. The more frequent sampling of the hailstorm (26-s updates) illustrates the opportunity to analyze storm structures indicative of rapid intensification, the development of hail aloft, and the onset of the downdraft near the surface.

The developed highly accurate neural network emulations of the NCAR Community Atmospheric Model (CAM) longwave and shortwave radiation parameterizations are 150 and 20 times as fast as the original/control longwave and shortwave radiation parameterizations, respectively. The full neural network model radiation was used for a decadal climate model simulation with the NCAR CAM. A detailed comparison of parallel decadal climate simulations performed with the original NCAR model radiation parameterizations and with their neural network emulations is presented. Almost identical results have been obtained for the parallel decadal simulations. This opens the opportunity of using efficient neural network emulations for the full model radiation for decadal and longer climate simulations as well as for weather prediction.

Acoustic monitoring data were used to define the residency and movement patterns of sharks within Crooked Island Sound, Florida. Over 3 years, sharks were monitored for periods of 1-37 days, with individuals regularly moving in and out of the study site. Individual sharks were continuously present within the study site for periods of 1-35 days. Patterns of movement could not be correlated with time of day. Home range sizes were typically small (average = 1.29 km super(2)) and did not vary on a yearly basis. Gillnet sampling revealed that juvenile Atlantic sharpnose sharks were present in all habitat types found within Crooked Island Sound, and peaks in abundance varied depending on month within a year. Although telemetry data showed that most individuals remained within the study site for short periods of time before emigrating, conventional tag-recapture data indicates some individuals return to Crooked Island Sound after extended absences (maximum length = 1,352 days). Although conventional shark nursery theory suggests small sharks remain in shallow coastal waters to avoid predation, juvenile Atlantic sharpnose sharks frequently exited from protected areas and appear to move through deeper waters to adjacent coastal bays and estuaries. Given the high productivity exhibited by this species, the benefit gained through a nursery that reduces predation may be limited for this species.

9225248 AB - The Bristol Bay, Alaska, fishery for red king crab Paralithodes camtschaticus is a male-only fishery. A safeguard against male overfishing is the requirement that at least 8.4 million successfully mated, newly fertilized females be present on the grounds each year; otherwise no harvest is permitted. Estimation of the number of mated females in the population is complicated by the timing of the Bering Sea trawl survey, which in most years moves through Bristol Bay before red king crab spawning is complete. From 1977 through 2000, an average of 22% (range, 0-87%) of the broodstock remained unmated at the time of the May-June survey. Eighty-nine percent of the observed annual variation in the proportion of unmated crabs was explained by water temperature and the date of the survey. Thus, the degree of mating success shown by each year's survey, although influenced by male availability, is predominantly an artifact of temperature and survey timing. Also, red king crabs tend to spawn in untrawlable nearshore waters, increasing the difficulty of obtaining unbiased estimates of abundance from sampling an open population. Because the proportion of mature females that emigrate each year to the nearshore spawning grounds is greater than that of males, the sex ratio within the sampled region of a survey conducted during spawning is biased toward males. This bias masks one of the more obvious signs of male overharvest-a male-depauperate sex ratio. Finally, a survey conducted during spawning cannot provide an accurate mapping of the spatial distribution of the postspawning broodstock returning from inshore spawning grounds to incubate their newly fertilized eggs during the next 10-12 months. A time-temperature model indicated that delaying the Bristol Bay red king crab survey until the end of June would ameliorate the problems caused by sampling an open population engaged in spawning.

Further, most models ignore the effects of species on the release decision. We present a discrete-choice model estimated from stated preference data in which conservation release is a function of the species caught and angler characteristics that include fishing avidity, demographic variables, and three angler orientation measures that assess an angler's catch-and-release ethic, attitude toward fisheries regulations, and need for self-caught fish for food. We then compare our stated preference model predictions for an individual angler with field data on catch-and-release fishing for the same angler. The results provide some important messages for managers. First, all angler characteristics were significant in the discrete-choice model, suggesting that an understanding of angler populations may help predict future catch-and-release behavior. Second, our results suggest that behavioral intent (e.g., stated preference data) is a good indicator of actual behavior, as the model correctly predicts the release decision in 74% of the cases. Finally, species type had a significant effect in the stated preference model as well as on model prediction success when compared with actual behavior.

We collected a total of 4219 individuals, representing 18 species of fishes and 27 families of aquatic insects. Changes in the composition of fish assemblages were significantly related to temporal variability in pool volume and location in the watershed. Smaller, upstream pools varied in volume more than downstream pools. Fish assemblages were significantly more similar through summer in downstream, larger pool habitats. Changes in the composition of aquatic insect families were related to variation in water quality conditions. Highly eutrophied sites were typically dominated by midge larvae (Chironomidae), resulting in highly similar assemblages over time. Our results support findings at larger space and time scales and call attention to the importance of rapid changes in habitat quality, size and connectivity on stream communities.

Each of the U.S. Endangered Species Act Sea Turtle Recovery Plans, developed jointly by the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) and NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), recommend maintaining a stranding network as part of a comprehensive national program for the conservation and recovery of listed sea turtles. The STSSN is coordinated overall by NMFS, and consists of a coordinator for each state (Maine through Texas), as well as trained volunteers and municipal, state ana federal employees operating under the direction of the state coordinator and NMFS. The purpose of the STSSN is to document dead sea turtles, salvage specimens, and aid injured sea turtles that strand in coastal areas under United States jurisdiction. The STSSN collects the following information: name and address of observer/responder, date, stranding location, species identification, state of decomposition, description of any obvious wounds, injuries or abnormalities, standard carapace measurements, and carcass or live turtle disposition. Photographs are taken whenever possible to verify species identification. NMFS holds regular meetings with the state STSSN coordinators to exchange information and to jointly develop recommendations for improving the STSSN.

In this study we evaluated the temporal and spatial stranding patterns of suspected and confirmed cases of domoic acid intoxicated sea lions from 1998 to 2006, using records of strandings along the California coast obtained from members of the California Marine Mammal Stranding Network. The majority of domoic acid cases were adult females (47%-82% of the total annual domoic acid cases), a contrast to strandings that were not related to domoic acid, which were generally dominated by juveniles and pups. Exposure to this biotoxin led to a 6.67-fold increase in adult female strandings in 2000, and a 5.44-fold increase in adult female deaths in 2006, relative to strandings and deaths of adult female not affected by domoic acid. Domoic acid cases have occurred annually since 1998 (except for 1999) between April and August, with clusters centered primarily at Pismo Beach (San Luis Obispo County), as well as at other beaches in San Luis Obispo, Monterey, Santa Cruz, Santa Barbara, Orange, and San Diego counties. The larger ecological and population level implications of increased domoic acid strandings and deaths, particularly among adult female sea lions, warrant further attention and need to be investigated.

In this study, teams of shore-based observers independently tracked whale pods during the southbound migration of gray whales (Eschrichtius robustus) while a routine ('standard watch') census was underway. A comparison of sighting records showed that time and location accuracy was limited to 45 s, 3 (magnetic) horizontally, and 0.0057 (0.2 reticles) vertically. Of 242 attempts to track whale groups, 72 failed, 120 were 'good tracks,' and 83 qualified as 'best tracks' because they had .8 sightings-pod, .16-min observation time, and unequivocal matches to sightings in the standard watch during uncompromised visibility. Between paired tracking teams, 39 attempts to conduct concurrent tracks resulted in 21 'good tracks' with complete agreement in 71% of the cases. Of 133 comparisons between trackers and the standard watch, 43% of the pod-size estimates were the same, but the standard watch overestimated 10% of the pods and underestimated 47%. Thus, according to results from tracking teams, pods recorded as size 1 by observers on the standard watch should be corrected by +0.6; pods of 2 by +0.5; pods of 3 by +0.8; and pods >3 (4-10) were overestimated and should be corrected by -0.6.

Dinoflagellate blooms in stratified waters, vertical migration of vegetative cells, and the accumulation of populations within thin layers are well-documented phenomena in nature. We propose a conceptual model that places these phenomena in a functional, ecological context: vegetative cells of a dinoflagellate population display vertical migration, but at the end of the bloom, environmental or internal cues shift the cell cycle to gamete formation. Then the vertical migrations cease, and cells accumulate in a layer at the pycnocline where gametes fuse to form zygotes, which then sink to the sediment as resting cysts. We support this conceptual model with experimental and environmental evidence.

Throughout most of the region the authors find, in agreement with previous studies, that positive anomalies of dust are associated with a significant reduction in surface shortwave radiation (SWR), while negative anomalies of dust are associated with an enhancement of SWR. Statistical analysis for 1984-2000 suggests that changes in dustiness in the tropical North Atlantic (10 degree -25 degree N, 20 degree -60 degree W) explained approximately 35% of the observed interannual SST variability during boreal summer, when climatological dust concentrations are highest. Measurements from a long-term moored buoy in the central tropical North Atlantic are used to investigate the causes of anomalously cool SST that occurred in conjunction with a period of enhanced dustiness at the start of the unexpectedly quiet 2006 hurricane season. It is found that surface SWR varied out of phase with dustiness, consistent with historical analyses. However, most of the anomalous cooling occurred prior to the period of enhanced dustiness and was driven primarily by wind-induced latent heat loss, with horizontal oceanic heat advection and SWR playing secondary roles. These results indicate that dust-induced changes in SWR did not play a major direct role in the cooling that led up to the 2006 Atlantic hurricane season.

The variances associated with these errors are important because they weight the different data and error sources during the model fitting process. Misspecification of the error variances can lead to biased estimates of key management quantities. Values for the error variances commonly are obtained separately from SCAA and treated as known in the subsequent analysis. The advantages of estimating the error variances within SCAA include that all of the data available to the analysis can be synthesized to obtain the variance estimates and, with some methods, uncertainty surrounding the variance estimates can be quantified. We evaluated alternative approaches for estimating log catchability (process error) and log total catch (observation error) standard deviations within SCAA using Monte Carlo simulations: an ad hoc approach that tunes the model predicted log total catch standard deviation to match a prior value, and a Bayesian approach using either strongly or weakly informative priors for log catchability standard deviation. The Bayesian approach using strongly informative priors outperformed the other approaches in estimating the log total catch and log catchability standard deviations, as well as estimating biomass in the last year of analysis. The ad hoc approach produced misleading results which could indicate that total variance (i.e., process error variance plus observation error variance) was well estimated when, in fact, total variance was underestimated.

Oocyte pigmentation and size comparison with sizes of mature eggs reported in published literature were used to infer intra-and interspecific synchrony and probable spawning phenology in 15 species of Acropora from Palmyra and Kingman atolls in the northern Line Islands. Sampling at both atolls took place in March-April 2002 and 2004. Oocyte sizes were determined from microdissections of fixed, decalcified samples. The majority (91.2%) of samples (n = 209) were gravid, with high levels of fertility in most (84.3%) samples. Statistically discrete oocyte size classes could be distinguished in most taxa at each atoll in each year. These discrete oocyte size classes suggest that several episodes of spawning, involving multiple species, take place over 2 or 3 months beginning in early spring. These data, which are the first observations of coral reproductive synchrony in the Line Islands, support the results of other recent studies, suggesting that reproductive synchrony can be a feature of equatorial reef assemblages where the annual ranges of sea-surface temperature and tidal amplitude are small.

The fully dynamic model integrates overland flow and infiltration to allow for the "interactive infiltration" process (run-on). Rainfall events varying in time and intensity were simulated on synthetic hillslopes with random and spatially correlated K sub(s) fields. Model grid size discretization recommendations are developed to fully capture the variation in K sub(s) and avoid limiting the spatial interactive infiltration opportunities as found in analysis of the effects of model grid size on spatially uncorrelated hillslopes. Our results show that on highly correlated K sub(s) fields, relative to the hillslope length, the infiltration due to interaction is less than half that of uncorrelated fields for low intensity events. Previous findings, are also substantiated and further explored, with explicit consideration of model discretization, that the variation in K sub(s) increases interaction by increasing the infiltration opportunity time, simultaneously, increasing runoff. Finally we investigate the rainfall durations, which produce maximum interaction, and find interaction peaks for rainfall events approximately 1.5 times longer than the hillslope average time to ponding.

To investigate this feature and its relation to thermostability, the structure of the Archaeoglobus fulgidus (Af) DQ dimer was determined at 2.33Aa resolution and its denaturation temperature was measured in vitro by circular dichroism (CD) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). This structure, a P2 sub(1)2 sub(1)2 sub(1) crystal form with two 45kDa dimers in the asymmetric unit, is the first structural representative of an archaeal DQ. Denaturation occurs at 343 c 3K at both low and high ionic strength and at 349K in the presence of the substrate analog tartrate. Since the growth optimum of the organism is 356K, this implies that the protein maintains its folded state through the participation of additional factors in vivo. The (ba) sub(8) fold is compared with those of two previously determined type I DQ structures, both bacterial (Salmonella and Staphylococcus), which had sequence identities of 630% with AfDQ. Although the overall folds are the same, there are many differences in secondary structure and ionic features; the archaeal protein has over twice as many salt links per residue. The archaeal DQ is smaller than its bacterial counterparts and lower in regular secondary structure, with its eight helices being an average of one turn shorter. In particular, two of the eight normally helical regions (the exterior of the barrel) are mostly nonhelical in AfDQ, each having only a single turn of 3 sub(10)-helix flanked by b-strand and coil. These `protohelices' are unique among evolutionarily close members of the (ba) sub(8)-fold superfamily. Structural features that may contribute to stability, in particular ionic factors, are examined and the implications of having a T sub(m) below the organism's growth temperature are considered.

One of the primary instruments on GOES-R, the Advanced Baseline Imager (ABI), will offer more spectral bands, higher spatial resolution, and faster imaging than does the current GOES Imager. Measurements from the ABI will be used for a wide range of qualitative and quantitative weather, land, ocean, cryosphere, environmental, and climate applications. However, the first and, likely, the second of the new series of GOES will not carry an infrared sounder dedicated to acquiring high-vertical-resolution atmospheric temperature and humidity profiles that are key to mesoscale and regional severe-weather forecasting. The ABI will provide some continuity of the current sounder products to bridge the gap until the advent of the GOES advanced infrared sounder. Both theoretical analysis and retrieval simulations show that data from the ABI can be combined with temperature and moisture information from forecast models to produce derived products that will be adequate substitutes for the legacy products from the current GOES sounders. Products generated from the Spinning Enhanced Visible and Infrared Imager (SEVIRI) measurements also demonstrate the utility of those legacy products for nowcasting applications. However, because of very coarse vertical resolution and limited accuracy in the legacy sounding products, placing a hyperspectral-resolution infrared sounder with high temporal resolution on future GOES is an essential step toward realizing substantial improvements in mesoscale and severe-weather forecasting required by the user communities.

The technique uses vertical profiles of reflectivity to identify the potential presence of warm rain (i.e., tropical rainfall) microphysics and delineates the tropical rainfall region to which the tropical Z-R relationship is applied. The performance of the algorithm is examined based on case studies of five storms that produced extreme precipitation in the United States. Results demonstrate relative improvements in radar-based quantitative precipitation estimation through the automated identification of tropical rainfall and the subsequent adaptation of the tropical Z-R relation to account for the potential warm rain processes.

Homogeneity adjustments made in the Radiosonde Atmospheric Temperature Products for Assessing Climate (RATPAC) and Hadley Centre Atmospheric Temperatures, version 2 (HadAT2), radiosonde datasets, which are applied by dataset developers to account for time-varying biases introduced by historical changes in instruments and measurement practices, reduce the relative bias in most cases. Although some differences were found between the two observed datasets, in general the observed trend profiles were more similar to one another than either was to the GCM profiles. In the troposphere, adjustment has a greater impact on improving agreement of the shapes of the trend profiles than on improving agreement of the layer mean trends, whereas in the stratosphere the opposite is true. Agreement between the shapes of GCM and radiosonde trend profiles is generally better in the stratosphere than the troposphere, with more complexity to the profiles in the latter than the former. In the troposphere the tropics exhibit the poorest agreement between GCM and radiosonde trend profiles, but also the largest improvement in agreement resulting from homogeneity adjustment. In the stratosphere, radiosonde trends indicate more cooling than GCMs. For the 1979-99 period, a disproportionate amount of this discrepancy arises several months after the eruption of Mount Pinatubo, at which time temperatures in the radiosonde time series cool abruptly by similar to 0.5 K compared to those derived from GCMs, and this difference persists to the end of the record.

After the archival period, the otoliths were aged at the Alaska Fisheries Science Center (AFSC) for stock assessment. For the selected Dover sole specimens, the otolith core was extracted from the remaining whole eyed-side otolith for super(14)C analysis. The selection process generated specimens for which final ages agreed with initial ages and was followed by successful coring. Dover sole validation specimens were all within the 99% confidence intervals around the loess-smoothed reference chronology. All category-1 specimens were within the 99% simultaneous confidence intervals on the reference chronology and the result also provided strong evidence for accurate ages.

A field experiment was conducted in June and July 2007 to evaluate the feasibility of using reflex actions as predictors of delayed mortality in tanner crab. Logistic regression was used to model mortality. The reflex actions identified for testing with C. bairdi were highly reliable and consistent among individuals. Strong responses in leg flare, leg retraction, eye retraction, and mouth close were observed with every individual every time they were tested. Weak chela closure was observed just once, and the kick response to lifting the abdominal flap was weak in eight instances and missing entirely in one test.

The neuston net was towed in both open water without Sargassum and in waters with varying amounts of Sargassum. When Sargassum was abundant, the neuston net was towed directly through the clumps, mats, or weedlines, but on some occasions, Sargassum was collected opportunistically. For all methods and cruises combined, most fishes were collected in samples containing Sargassum habitat. Both Sargassum and open-water collections were dominated by the families Monacanthidae, Carangidae, and Exocoetidae. There was a large discrepancy between Sargassum and open-water catches from 2000-03 neuston net samples. Despite variability, the quantity of Sargassum habitat was correlated with fish species richness and density.

Sediment maps were consulted to ensure that only sites dominated by gravel substrate were sampled. Disturbed and undisturbed sites were examined at shallow depths and at deeper depths in U.S. and Canadian water. At shallow sites, the cover of five out of six taxa of colonial epifauna differed significantly between undisturbed and disturbed sites located, respectively, inside and outside of C-II. Sponges and encrusting bryozoans were the two colonial epifauna taxa that exhibited significant interaction terms in the ANOVAs performed for shallow sites.

To this end, variation in net width and footrope distance from the bottom, two important determinants of the catch process, were related to certain aspects of vessel operations, catch weight, and environmental conditions using generalized additive modeling (GAM). Net width was most affected by the interactive effect of towing depth and trawl wire length, generally increasing with increasing depth and wire lengths, except at the deepest sites where the net narrowed slightly. Net width also increased linearly with increased towing speed and wave height, and varied non-linearly with the negative log of sediment particle diameter. Conversely, net width decreased with increasing catch weight, particularly catches of heavy benthic invertebrates, such as snails and sea stars. Footrope distance from the bottom decreased the more a net was used and with increasing catch size, particularly for heavy benthic invertebrates. Footrope distance from the bottom increased with decreasing sediment particle diameter and with the interactive effect of depth and trawl wire length. Our results suggest that the precision of survey catch per unit effort estimates can be improved through the implementation of minor changes in trawling procedures, prediction of area-swept in the absence of suitable net measurement data, and validation of tow performance.

In this paper, we present information which can be used to inform bycatch mitigation strategies. We collected samples and data from turtles observed in the U.S. commercial scallop dredge fishery and examined interactions and injuries, genetic samples, and turtle size. Observers documented injuries in about two-thirds (52 of 74) of the live and fresh dead turtles. When the location of the turtle in the gear was described, it was most frequently reported in the dredge (n=19), in the bag (n=9), or on top of the catch (n=7). Although several different injury and interaction scenarios were described by observers, the most common was an injured turtle, caught in the dredge, and brought aboard the fishing vessel. The timing of injuries was often unknown, but when observer comments provided information about timing, most injuries likely occurred before the turtle was brought aboard the vessel. The majority of turtles observed in the scallop dredge fishery were juvenile loggerheads.

However, when laboratory data on context-dependent patterns of oxidative DNA damage are compared with patterns of mutation inferred from mammalian sequence evolution, the strength of the correlation suggests that damage is the main source of mutations. Analysis of damage susceptibility holds promise for improving models of mutational specificity.

AN - 756824794; 13601-080376_0003 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of general resource management plans (GMPs) for the Cordell Bank, Gulf of Farallones, and Monterey Bay national marine sanctuaries (NMSs) is proposed. The sanctuaries provide protection for the rich offshore northern and central California marine ecosystems and cultural resources within a 7,100-square-mile area particularly noted for its coastal estuaries, offshore islands, seamounts, kelp forests, diverse marine mammals, and bird species. The revised management plans, proposed in the draft EIS of October 2006, would have involved a series of regulatory changes intended to resolve inconsistencies in regulatory language and enhance resource protection within the three sanctuaries. Most of the regulatory changes involve prohibitions of activities that would increase pollution loads in the sanctuaries, damage marine habitats, exploitatively remove fishery and other resources, or introduce invasive species of plants and animals. Approximately 585 square nautical miles would be added to the Monterey Bay NMS around Davidson Seamount. In addition to the proposed changes in sanctuary management, the draft EIS addressed a No Action Alternative under which the existing GMPs would be perpetuated. A draft supplement of March 2008 proposed further modifications to the regulatory language proposed under the 2006 draft EIS for the three sanctuaries. In addition to the regulatory language changes under the earlier proposal, the supplement proposes to expand a prohibition of discharges from cruise ships in order to include sewage discharges from vessels of 300 gross registered tons or more. In addition, the modified regulations would prohibit the discharge of graywater from vessels of 300 gross registered tons or more while within the Monterey Bay NMS; the GMPs for the Cordell Bank and Gulf of Farallones NMSs already prohibit such discharges. This final EIS adopts all the foregoing proposals and preferences. POSITIVE IMPACTS: By complying With legislatively mandated requirements to review and adjust sanctuary management plans, the proposed regulatory actions would respond to current management needs across the sanctuaries and allow related resource management actions and conditions across the sanctuaries to be coordinated. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: A prohibition on the use of motorized personal watercraft for tow-in surfing in Monterey Bay would hamper recreational access and reduce recreational enjoyment for enthusiasts of this activity. This impact could be mitigated by providing for special use permits for competitions and training. LEGAL MANDATES: National Marine Sanctuaries Act (16 U.S.C. 1431 et seq.).

Preparation date: September 19, 2008 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - AMENDMENT 3 TO THE FISHERY MANAGEMENT PLAN (FMP) FOR THE NORTHEAST SKATE COMPLEX. AN - 16372662; 13600 AB - PURPOSE: The amendment of the fishery management plan (FMP) for the Northeast Region's skate complex by the New England Fishery Management Council. The species to which the FMP would apply include winter skate, barndoor skate, thorny skate, smooth skate, little skate, clearnose skate, and rosette skate. The geographic reach of the plan extends from Cape Hatteras, North Carolina to the northern most coastal point of Maine. The unit extends from the coastline of the continental United States to the Hague Line and the outer edge of the Exclusive Economic Zone. The original FMP, published in March 2003, designated a management unit, established a fishing year, specify overfishing definitions for each skate species, specify essential fish habitat for skates, specified a rebuilding program for overfished species, initiated mechanisms for FMP review and monitoring, specified a framework adjustment process, and adopted a "baseline" of management measures in other fisheries that benefit the skate resources and establish a process to review changes to the baseline measures. In addition, the FMP provides options for development of a federal permit program for skates, development of a catch reporting program for skates, modifications to current reporting requirements for all vessels and dealers, requirement of a letter of authorization for direct sales of skate bait, possession limits for skate the wing fishery, and prohibitions on the possession, landing, and/or sale of certain skate species. Since the passage of the original FMP, biological assessments indicate that smooth, thorny, and winter skates have been overfished and thorny skates continue to be overfished. Moreover, federal law mandates the establishment of annual catch limits (ACLs) and accountability measures. Finally, the existing baseline review procedure is obsolete. Seven alternatives, including the No Action/Status Quo Alternative, which would perpetuate the existing FMP unamended, are considered in this draft EIS. Except for the proposed skate possession limits and the baseline review process, the proposed alternatives would be intended to augment, rather than replace, existing skate management measures. All of the measures would achieve the same skate catch limits (TALs) through a combination of skate catch limits, time/area management, and seasonal fishery quotas. In addition three of the alternatives would incorporate a "hard" total allowable catch (TAC) approach to managing ACL and implement accountability measures. Each alternative would also provide for two fishery allocation options and skate possession limits to achieve the associated TALs. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The amended FMP would prevent overfishing within the fishery. As decision-making on the fishery matures, fine-tuning of management measures, as proposed in this amendment, would become more transparent and effective. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Restrictions placed on fishing vessel operators would result in some social and economic impacts on communities, ports, vessel operators and crews, and dealers, but these impacts would be minor. Restrictions on the possession of skates would have the greatest negative social and economic impacts. Minor, short-term social impacts would also result from changes to reporting requirements and from species prohibitions and possession limits.

AN - 16385861; 13585 AB - PURPOSE: Amendment of the consolidation of the fishery management plan (FMP) for Atlantic tuna, swordfish, and shark and the Atlantic Billfish FMP, and related activities, are proposed to address issues related to essential fish habitat (EFH). In 2003, the National Marine Fisheries Service began the process of amending the FMP for Atlantic tuna, swordfish, and sharks and the Atlantic Billfish FMP; all species of concern are considered highly migratory species (HMS). After considering comments on a scoping paper and on a predraft document, the Service decided to consolidate these FMPs. Prior to that date, tunas, swordfish, and sharks were managed under the 1999 FMP for these fisheries, which was amended in 2003, while billfish were managed under the 1988 Atlantic billfish FMP, and its 1999 amendment. This amendment to the consolidated FMP would provide for measures that would minimize adverse effects on EFH and encourage EFH enhancement. EFH was defined by the authorizing legislation as those habitats necessary for the spawning, breeding, feeding, or growth to maturity. EFH has been identified and described for each life stage of all affected species in the fishery management unit as have the physical, biological, and chemical characteristics of EFH and, if known, how these characteristics influence the use of EFH by each species and at each life stage. In 1999, EFH for Atlantic tuna, swordfish, and sharks were identified and described in an FMP; EFH for billfish was described in the 1999 Amendment 1 to the Billfish FMP. The 1999 documents included text descriptions, tables, and maps for each species and life stage depicting the geographical locations of EFH. Habitat areas of particular concern (HAPCs) were identified and described for sandbar sharks off the Chesapeake Bay of Maryland, Delaware Bay of Delaware, Great Bay of New Jersey, and the North Carolina Outer Banks. In 2003, Amendment 1 to the FMP for Atlantic tuna, swordfish, and sharks updated EFH for five shark species (blacktip, sandbar, finetooth, dusky, and nurse sharks). In 2004, a comprehensive review of all HMS EFH was undertaken in the consolidated HMS FMP. This draft EIS examines alternatives for updating existing HMS EFH, considers additional HAPCs, analyses fishing impacts on EFH, and, where necessary, identified possible means of avoiding or minimizing adverse impacts on EFH. For the identification of EFH and HAPC, this EIS considers five alternatives and three alternatives, respectively, in each case including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1) in the comparative assessment. The preferred EFH alternative (Alternative 3) would establish new EFH boundaries based on the 95 percent probability boundary of identified likely EFH areas. The preferred HAPC alternative (Alternative 2) would add a designated HAPC for spawning bluefin tuna in the Gulf of Mexico while maintaining the existing HAPCs. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Establish and protection of EFH and HAPCs would ensure the protection and, if possible, enhancement of areas crucial to the continued optimum yield of HMS stocks, supporting the economic and ecological viability of the fishery. Overall, the promotion of the fishery resources within the scope of the consolidation would be enhanced, while economic exigencies of users of the fisheries would have their resource protected for future use. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Some EFH and HAPC restrictions could negatively affect the socioeconomic situation of certain fishing communities and fish processing concerns and their workers.

A striking array of phenotypes exhibited by contemporary animals is assumed to have evolved by accumulating a series of selectively advantageous mutations. However, the experimental test of such adaptive events at the molecular level is remarkably difficult. One testable phenotype, dim-light vision, is mediated by rhodopsins. Here, we engineered 11 ancestral rhodopsins and show that those in early ancestors absorbed light maximally (lambda (sub max) ) at 500 nm, from which contemporary rhodopsins with variable lambda (sub max) s of 480-525 nm evolved on at least 18 separate occasions. These highly environment-specific adaptations seem to have occurred largely by amino acid replacements at 12 sites, and most of those at the remaining 191 ( nearly equal 94%) sites have undergone neutral evolution. The comparison between these results and those inferred by commonly-used parsimony and Bayesian methods demonstrates that statistical tests of positive selection can be misleading without experimental support and that the molecular basis of spectral tuning in rhodopsins should be elucidated by mutagenesis analyses using ancestral pigments.

AN - 16374935; 13575 AB - PURPOSE: The establishment of a fishery management plan (FMP) to regulate offshore marine aquaculture in the Gulf of Mexico Exclusive Economic Zone is proposed. Demand for protein is increasing in the United States and commercial wild-capture fisheries will be unlikely to continue to meet the growing demand for fish. Aquaculture is method to increase fish supply. Currently, the federal National Fisheries Management Service require an exempted fishing permit to conduct aquaculture in federal waters. Permits are of limited duration and are not intended to provide the capacity for commercial production of fish, obviating the viable aquaculture in federal waters. The aquatic FMP proposed in the EIS process at hand would establish a regional permitting process to manage the development of an environmentally sound and economically sustainable aquaculture industry in the Gulf. The primary goal of the permitting program is to increase the maximum sustainable yield (MSY) and optimum yield (OY) of harvest of federal fisheries in the Gulf by supplementing the harvest of wild caught fish with cultured fish. This draft programmatic EIS evaluates the potential impacts of a range of alternatives capable of implementing the following categories of regulatory action: 1) types of permits required to conduct aquaculture; 2) duration of permit issuance; 3) permit conditions for issuance; 4) species allowed to be farmed; 5) allowable marine aquaculture systems; 6) criteria for siting aquaculture facilities; 7) buffer zones surrounding aquaculture facilities; 8) recordkeeping and reporting requirements; 9) biological reference points and status determination criteria; and 10) framework procedures for regulating MSY and OY. POSITIVE IMPACTS: By establishing standards and regulations appropriate to the pertinent federal fishery management legislation, the FMP would regulate and promote environmentally sound and economical sustainable aquaculture in the Gulf. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Implementing and administering the FMP would add to costs incurred by federal agencies overseeing the fishery. The development of offshore aquaculture would displace wild fishing grounds, degrade ambient water quality, and alter benthic habitat. Fitting into coastal communities would be a major challenge to coastal communities due to competition with local wild fish fishing interests, the degradation of nearshore visual aesthetics resulting from the presence of aquaculture facilities, and the competition with other users, particularly recreational fishing interests, for ocean space.

AN - 16386760; 13573 AB - PURPOSE: The establishment of an undersea anti-submarine warfare (ASW) training range for the Atlantic Naval Fleet is proposed by the U.S. Navy. Atlantic Fleet submarines deploy worldwide, and shifts in the military strategic landscape require increased capability in the world's shallow littoral seas, such as the Arabian Sea, the South China Sea, and the Korean Sea. The current global proliferation of extremely quiet submarines poses a crucial threat to the maritime interests of the U.S. Hence, submarine training using active sonar in shallow waters is critical to a complete training program. Training effectively for these shallow littoral environments requires the availability of realistic conditions in which actual potential combat situations can be adequately simulated. The ASW range would enable the Navy to train effectively in a shallow water environment (120 to 900 feet in depth) at a suitable location for Atlantic Fleet ASW-capable units. The depth parameters for the range were derived from collectively assessing the depth requirements of the platforms that would be using the range and the approximate water depth of potential areas of conflict that the Navy has identified. Under the proposed action, the Navy would place 1.22-inch undersea fiber optic cables and no more than 300 transducer notes within a 500-square-nautical-mile area of the Atlantic Ocean. The cable would extend 600 nautical miles. Information from the network would be transmitted via a trunk cable to a 400-square-foot landside terminal facility and, thence, to Fleet Area Control and Surveillance Facility Virginia Capes (FACSFAC VACAPES). The distance between nodes would vary from one to three nautical miles. Operation of the ASW range would involve up to three vessels and two aircraft using the range for any one training event, although events would typically involve fewer units. The instrumented area would be connected to the shore via a single trunk cable. Logistical support would be required. for ASW training, including handling (launch and recovery) of non-explosive exercise torpedoes and submarine target simulators. The preferred site for the ASW warfare training range lies within the Jacksonville Operation Area. In addition to the proposed action, this draft EIS considers alternative sites within the Charleston, Cherry Point, and VACAPES Operating Areas as well as a No Action Alternative. POSITIVE IMPACTS: In addition to preparing submarine crews to mount offensive and defensive tactics in littoral zones, the range would provide the Navy the ability to aid Department of Homeland Security in near-shore covert activities, such as covert drops of personnel on foreign shores. The proposal would be consistent with real-world threats, provide a safe environment for training, and allow critically important real-time feedback that would eliminate the need for expensive, time-consuming iterative training events to validate and confirm results. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Cable installation would have temporary, limited impacts on The benthic environment and organisms in the range area. Though green, loggerhead, and Kemps Ridley sea turtles utilize the sea floor for extended periods, the construction period for laying cable would be extremely limited and, so, unlikely to have a significant on these reptiles. Vessel strikes would pose a greater risk to sea turtles and a significant risk to marine mammals as well.

A model based upon the Master Chemical Mechanism (MCM) was constrained to observations of chemical and physical parameters made onboard the NOAA ship R/V Brown as part of the New England Air Quality Study (NEAQS) in the summer of 2004. The model was used to calculate [OH] and to determine the composition of the peroxy radical pool. Modelled [NO sub(3)] and [N sub(2)O sub(5)] were compared to in-situ measurements by Cavity Ring-Down Spectroscopy. The comparison showed that the model generally overestimated the measurements by 30-50%, on average. The model results were analyzed with respect to several chemical and physical parameters, including uptake of NO sub(3) and N sub(2)O sub(5) on fog droplets and on aerosol, dry deposition of NO sub(3) and N sub(2)O sub(5), gas-phase hydrolysis of N sub(2)O sub(5) and reactions of NO sub(3) with NMHCs and peroxy radicals. The results suggest that fog, when present, is an important sink for N sub(2)O sub(5) via rapid heterogeneous uptake. The comparison between the model and the measurements were consistent with values of the heterogeneous uptake coefficient of N sub(2)O sub(5) ( gamma N sub(2)O sub(5))>110 super(− 2)], independent of aerosol composition in this marine environment. The analysis of the different loss processes of the nitrate radical showed the important role of the organic peroxy radicals, which accounted for a significant fraction (median: 15%) of NO sub(3) gas-phase removal, particularly in the presence of high concentrations of dimethyl sulphide (DMS).

AN - 16372576; 13571 AB - PURPOSE: The geographic extension of the Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) Naval Undersea Warfare Center (NUWC) Keyport Range Complex in Washington State is proposed. The NAVSEA NUWC Keyport Range comprises the Keyport Range Site, Dabob Bay Range Complex (DBRC), and Quinault Underwater Training Range (QUTR). The Keyport Range Complex lies within Kitsap County and includes portions of Port Orchard Reach and the southern tip of Liberty Bay. The DBRC lies in Hood Canal and Dabob Bay in waiters under the jurisdiction of Jefferson and Kitsap counties. The QUTR is located off the coast of Jefferson County. The three range sites within the NAVSEA NUWC Complex are geographically distinct; although activities conducted at the various range sites may be related operationally, each test is conducted with a single range. Hence, a separate set of alternatives, each set including a No ACTION Alternative, have been developed for the purposes of addressing the impacts of the extension of the NAVSEA NUWC Complex. The preferred alternative for the Keyport Range Site would extend the range boundaries to the north, east, and south, increasing the size of the range from 1.5 square nautical miles (sqnm) to 3.2 sqnm and increasing the average annual length of use from 55 to 60 days. The preferred alternative for the DBRC would extend the southern boundary of this range approximately 10 nautical miles and the northern boundary to one nautical mile south of Hood Canal Bridge, increasing the size of the range from 32.7 sqnm to 47.7 sqnm. Average annual length of use would not change. Two alternatives continue to be under consideration for the QUTR. The first alternative still under consideration would extend range boundaries to coincide with the overlying special use airspace of W-237A and to add 8.4 sqnm of surf zone at Kalaoch, resulting in an overall range area of 1,839 sqnm. The second alternative would extend the range boundaries as indicated under the first alternative but locate a 2.26 sqnm surf zone at Ocean City rather than Kalaoch. The total range area for the second alternative for QUTR would encompass 1.854.5 sqnm. In addition to the proposed Action, this draft EIS considers a No Action Alternative And various Action alternatives for each range and a No Action Alternative. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The operations conducted under planning for the NAVSEA NUWC would help prepare the Navy military for the increasingly complex demands of the deployment of naval forces worldwide to face the emerging and, in some cases well-established, global threat of rogue nations and international terrorists organizations. The proposed plan would achieve and maintain fleet readiness, expand warfare missions supported by the NCPRC, and upgrade existing range capabilities to enhance and sustain Navy training and research, development, testing and evaluation of new technologies and techniques. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Expended and unexpended munitions, some containing hazardous substances, would collect on the seafloor and naval vessels would release small quantities of hazardous materials during normal operations. The use of explosives and various other training activities could have an impacts on federally protected marine mammals, though no conclusive data has indicated such a potential. Sonar effects on marine species would be no more significant that current impacts. Essential fish habitat could suffer damage; however, any such impact would not appreciably degrade the quality or extent of EFH for any managed species.

AN - 868223204; 13570-5_0002 AB - PURPOSE: An assessment of the potential impacts over a 10-year planning horizon of Navy Atlantic Fleet training within the Navy Cherry Point Range Complex (NCPRC) off the coast of North Carolina is presented. The complex encompasses 18,966 Square nautical miles (sqnm) of special use area, 18,617 sqnm of offshore surface and subsurface operating area, an 12,529 sqnm of deep ocean area. The geographic scope of this EIS includes the airspace, seaspace, and undersea space of the complex, including the area from the mean high tide line up to and extending seaward from the three-nautical-mile western boundary of the operating area. The Navy and Marine Corps make extensive use of one another's training areas and conduct many highly integrated joint training activities in the three adjoining range complexes of Navy Cherry Point, Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point, and Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune. Despite this high degree of integration and interaction, the functions, structure, management and use of the three range complexes are sufficiently distinct that the Navy and Marine Corps analyze potential environmental impacts of the combined training activities in separate documents. The proposed action would maintain baseline training and testing operations at current levels, plus sufficient additional operations to support a surge capability in compliance with the Fleet Response Plan; provide flexibility to respond to real world situations with increased training operations and to accommodate mission expansion, emerging force structure changes, and new range capabilities; and eliminate high-explosive bombing exercises and implement enhanced mine warfare training capability within the range complex. In addition to the proposed Action, this draft EIS considers two Action alternatives and a No Action Alternative, which would perpetuate the existing training levels and approaches, along with additional surge capabilities. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The joint operations conducted under planning for the NCPRC and its coordination with the other, contiguous and overlapping Marine Corps training facilities would help prepare the two branches of the U.S. military for the increasingly complex demands of the deployment of naval forces worldwide to face the emerging and, in some cases well-established, global threat of rogue nations and international terrorists organizations. The proposed plan would achieve and maintain fleet readiness, expand warfare missions supported by the NCPRC, and upgrade existing range capabilities to enhance and sustain Navy training and research, development, testing and evaluation of new technologies and techniques. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Expended and unexpended munitions, some containing hazardous substances, would collect on the seafloor and naval vessels would release small quantities of hazardous materials during normal operations. Aircraft noise, including sonic booms, would have only minor impacts within the complex as sensitive receptor sites are scarce on the open ocean. The use of explosives, aircraft overflights, and other training activities could have an impacts on federally protected sea turtle species and the Bermuda petrel, but that impact area does not include significant marine mammal populations. Sonar effects on marine species would be no more significant that current impacts. The USS Monitor, a vessel sunk during the Civil War and included in the national Register of Historic Places, and other potential eligible shipwrecks could be affected by training activities.

AN - 742776409; pmid-19045631 AB - The effect of cumulative nonlinear distortions in a focused ultrasonic wave on the dissipative radiation force (RF) is analyzed using a simplified analytical model separating the stages of geometrical focusing and the subsequent diffraction in the focal area. It is shown that in the absence of shocks, nonlinear steepening can significantly amplify the RF as compared with a harmonic wave. Two different types of dissipation, one corresponding to a classical viscous fluid and another typical of many biological tissues, are considered.

AN - 69378339; 18603018 AB - 8,5'-Cyclo-2'-deoxyadenosine (cdA) and 8,5'-cyclo-2'-deoxyguanosine (cdG) are among the major lesions formed in DNA by hydroxyl radical attack on 2'-deoxyadenosine and 2'-deoxyguanosine, respectively, followed by intramolecular cyclization between C5' and C8. Mechanisms of formation of these unique tandem lesions were elucidated. The 8,5'-cyclization causes an unusual puckering of the sugar moiety giving rise to significant distortion in the DNA double helix. Methodologies were developed for the measurement of these lesions in DNA by mass spectrometry coupled either with gas chromatography or high performance liquid chromatography. Both techniques allowed identification and quantification of both R- and S-diastereomers of cdA and cdG in DNA in vitro and in vivo. Because of the 8,5'-covalent bond between the sugar and base moieties in the same nucleoside, cdA and cdG are repaired by nucleotide excision repair rather than by base excision repair. Thus, these lesions may play a role in diseases with defective nucleotide excision repair. Their biological effects include blocking DNA polymerases, inhibition of gene expression, transcriptional mutagenesis among others. Accumulation of cdA and cdG was observed in tissues in vivo in connection to disease and environmental conditions, suggesting an important role for these lesions in disease processes including carcinogenesis and neuronal death.

Concurrent estimates, i.e., the estimates for the most recent month (or quarter), are updated whenever future observations become available, and the difference between the concurrent estimate and the mean squared optimal update is called the revision. It is therefore of interest to measure the variance of the revisions, which generally increase in size as more data becomes available; this is because the signal extraction mean squared error decreases as more observations are added. In this article we compute the variance of the revision based on a finite sample of data, where the revision lead, i.e., the amount of additional data that becomes available, is potentially infinite. The revision variance for the infinite revision lead represents the maximal revision variance possible, and is useful as a normalization. Our focus is on presenting practical, easily coded algorithms for computation of the revision variances. These make possible a finite sample-based alternative to SEATSs percentage reduction in the standard error of the revision after additional years, which assumes that estimates are obtained using an infinite past. We present numerical comparisons between SEATSs diagnostic and our finite sample analogue. Adapted from the source document.

These areas account for 88 percent of U.S. personal income. Personal income growth slowed in 208 metropolitan areas, increased in 144, and remained unchanged in 11. The average of the personal income growth rates for the nation's 363 metropolitan areas was 6.0 percent in 2007, down from 6.5 percent in 2006. Other highlights include the following: Ninety-two percent of metropolitan areas had growth rates within 3 percentage points of the 2007 average (chart 1). Personal income growth in all but seven metropolitan areas exceeded inflation as measured by the national price index for personal consumption expenditures, which rose 2.6 percent in 2007; all but four areas exceeded the 2.8 percent inflation rate in 2006. The largest private-sector contributors to personal income growth-in both 2007 and 2006-were the finance, professional services, and health care industries (table A). Per capita personal income in the metropolitan portion of the United States rose 5.1 percent in 2007, compared with 5.7 percent in 2006. This article discusses metropolitan area personal in-come in 2007, including per capita personal income; source data used to update these statistics; and revisions to previously released statistics.

Our study employed the NOC (UK) deep-tow sidescan sonar instrument, TOBI, in concert with the WHOI (USA) autonomous underwater vehicle, ABE, to collect information concerning hydrothermal plume distributions in the water column co-registered with geologic investigations of the underlying seafloor. Two areas of high-temperature hydrothermal venting were identified. The first was situated in a non-transform discontinuity (NTD) between two adjacent second-order ridge-segments near 4 degrees 02'S, distant from any neovolcanic activity. This geologic setting is very similar to that of the ultramafic-hosted and tectonically-controlled Rainbow vent-site on the northern Mid-Atlantic Ridge. The second site was located at 4 degrees 48'S at the axial-summit centre of a second-order ridge-segment. There, high-temperature venting is hosted in an approximately 18 km (super 2) area of young lava flows which in some cases are observed to have flowed over and engulfed pre-existing chemosynthetic vent-fauna. In both appearance and extent, these lava flows are directly reminiscent of those emplaced in Winter 2005-06 at the East Pacific Rise, 9 degrees 50'N and reference to global seismic catalogues reveals that a swarm of large (M 4.6-5.6) seismic events was centred on the 5 degrees S segment over a approximately 24 h period in late June 2002, perhaps indicating the precise timing of this volcanic eruptive episode. Temperature measurements at one of the vents found directly adjacent to the fresh lava flows at 5 degrees S MAR (Turtle Pits) have subsequently revealed vent-fluids that are actively phase separating under conditions very close to the Critical Point for seawater, at approximately 3000 m depth and 407 degrees C: the hottest vent-fluids yet reported from anywhere along the global ridge crest.

The significance of headquarters in large urban settings is their ability to facilitate the spatial separation of their white collar activities from remote production plants. The results show that separation benefits headquarters in two main ways: the availability of differentiated local service input suppliers and the scale of other headquarter activity nearby. A wide diversity of local service options allows the headquarters to better match their various needs with specific experts producing service inputs from whom they learn, which improves their productivity. Headquarters also benefit from other headquarter neighbors, although such marginal scale benefits seem to diminish as local scale rises.

A. palmata is thought to be well adapted to proliferate through the recruitment of fragments resulting from physical disturbances, such as moderate intensity hurricanes. This study monitored fifteen 150m super(2) fixed study plots on the upper Florida Keys fore-reef for asexual and sexual recruitment from 2004 to 2007. Between July and October 2005, 4 hurricanes passed by the Florida Keys, producing wind speeds on the reef tract of 23 to 33ms super(-1). Surveys following the hurricanes documented an average loss of 52% estimated live tissue area within the study plots. The percentage of 'branching' colonies in the population decreased from 67% to 42% while 'remnant' colonies (isolated patches of tissue on standing skeleton) increased from 11% to 27%. Although some detached branches remained as loose fragments, more than 70% of the 380 fragments observed in the study plots were dead or rapidly losing tissue 3weeks after Hurricane Dennis. Over the course of the study, only 27 fragments became attached to the substrate to form successful asexual recruits. Meanwhile, of the 18 new, small encrusting colonies that were observed in the study, only 2 were not attributable to asexual origin (i.e., remnant tissue from colonies or fragments previously observed) and are therefore possible sexual recruits. In summary, the 2005 hurricane season resulted in substantial loss of A. palmata from the upper Florida Keys fore-reef from a combination of physical removal and subsequent disease-like tissue mortality, and yielded few recruits of either sexual or asexual origin. Furthermore, the asexual and sexual fecundity of the remaining population is compromised for the near future due to the lack of branches (i.e., 'asexual fecundity') and overall loss of live tissue.

The results of polarimetric echo classification have been integrated into the study to investigate the performance of radar rainfall estimation contingent on hydrometeor type. A new method for rainfall estimation that capitalizes on the results of polarimetric echo classification (EC method) is suggested. According to the EC method, polarimetric rainfall relations are utilized if the radar resolution volume is filled with rain (or rain and hail), and multiple R(Z) relations are used for different types of frozen hydrometeors. The intercept parameters in the R(Z) relations for each class are determined empirically from comparisons with gauges. It is shown that the EC method exhibits better performance than the conventional WSR-88D algorithm with a reduction by a factor of 1.5-2 in the rms error of 1-h rainfall estimates up to distances of 150 km from the radar.

Methods: Cements were formulated without fluoride (Cement A) or with fluoride (Cement B). The treatment groups were A=Cement A; A2=Cement A+bonding agent; B=Cement B; B2=Cement B+bonding agent. The calcium, phosphate, and fluoride ion release in saliva-like solution (SLS) was determined from hardened cement disks without or with a coating of bonding agent. For the remineralization, two cavities were prepared in dentin of extracted human molars and demineralized. One cavity received composite resin (control); the other received treatment A, A2, B or B2. After 6 week incubation in SLS, 180 mu m cross-sections were cut. The percentage remineralization was determined by transverse microradiography comparing the dentin mineral density under the cement to that under the control. Results: The percentage of remineralization (mean+/-S.D.) was A (39+/-14)=B (37+/-18), A2 (23+ /-13), B2 (14+/-7). Two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Holm-Sidak test showed a significant effect from the presence of bonding agent (p0.05). The ion solution concentrations of all groups showed undersaturation with respect to dicalcium phosphate dihydrate and calcium fluoride and supersaturation for fluorapatite and hydroxyapatite suggesting a positive remineralization potential. Significance: Compared to the control all treatments resulted in mineral increase. The remineralization was negatively affected by the presence of the bonding agent.

We show that at the onset of fishing or of a large positive or negative change in fishing effort, aggregate CPUE will be hyper-responsive, that is, relative change of aggregate CPUE will be greater than that of aggregate abundance. We also show that as the fishery reaches equilibrium, the aggregate CPUE in most circumstances will continue to be hyper-responsive, with a greater relative change from its value at the start than the aggregate abundance. However, there are less likely circumstances in which the aggregate CPUE will be hyper-stable compared to aggregate abundance. The circumstances leading to hyper-responsiveness or hyper-stability depend on the distribution of productivity and fishery vulnerability parameters among the species in the aggregation.

To partly address this knowledge gap, primary producer biomass and consumer abundance and biomass were quantified on nutrient-diffusing substrata along a light gradient created by four riparian reserve treatments (forested controls, 30-m wide riparian reserve, 10-m reserve, clear-cut) each replicated twice in headwater streams of southwestern British Columbia in 2001 and 2002. Predation pressure, as estimated by trout abundance varied among streams, and was treated as a covariate, with nutrient enrichment and riparian reserve width as fixed effects. Primary producer and consumer biomass were limited by light flux as determined by reserve width, and nutrients, especially phosphorus. In 2002, nutrient effects on algal biomass were conditional upon reserve width: chlorophyll a biomass was higher on P- and N+P-amended pots compared to controls, but only in the 10-m reserve and clear-cut treatments or when light flux was greater than 75 kmol m super(-2) s super(-1). The effects of fish predators on primary consumers were also conditional upon reserve width, with strong predator effects occurring in the 10-m and clear-cut riparian treatments. The interactive effects of light flux, nutrient supply and predator abundance in constraining lower trophic levels may be common in nature. My results, therefore, suggest interactive effects were manisfested above a specific threshold condition. The interactive effects of light flux, nutrient supply and predator abundance in constraining lower trophic levels may be common in nature. Results from my study support this hypothesis and suggest that variation in light flux was an important condition dictating the strength of nutrient limitation and redation pressure in these headwater streams.

Irgarol 1051 is currently among the most widely used organic booster biocides worldwide. This study reports Irgarol 1051, its major metabolite M1 (aka GS26575), and diuron concentrations found in selected California marinas. Seasonal water samples (n = 46) were collected during the summer and fall of 2006 from eleven marinas throughout Southern and Northern California. The samples were extracted using solid phase extraction and analysed utilizing liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS-MS) with electrospray ionization. All three compounds were detected in all samples, representing a 100% frequency of occurrence and indicating widespread use around the sampled marinas. Irgarol concentrations ranged from 12 to 712 ng L super(-1) (average 102 ng L super(-1)), M1 concentrations were 1-217 ng L super(-1) (average 31 ng L super(-1)) and diuron concentrations were 5-27 ng L super(-1) (average 13 ng L super(-1)). In general, concentrations of both Irgarol (15-712 ng L super(-1)) and M1 (1-217 ng L super(-1)) were greater in samples collected during the summer, corresponding to the peak of the boating season. The detected diuron concentrations in most cases were greater for fall samples (7-27 ng L super(-1)), and probably represented a combination of non-agricultural (rights of way) and agricultural applications of diuron in California. The maximum Irgarol concentration detected in California marinas in summer 2006 (712 ng L super(-1)) was five times greater than the Irgarol concentration suggested as the plant toxicity benchmark (136 ng L super(-1)). Twenty three percent of samples from California marinas in this study exceeded this benchmark, suggesting that detected Irgarol concentrations may be high enough to cause changes in phytoplankton communities in the sampled marinas.

The CRW predicts reaction hazards based on a database of more than 6,000 common industrial chemicals, classified by major reactive groups, using 43 X 43 matrix of organic and inorganic reactive groups, modified from the earlier EPA method for determining the compatibility of hazardous mixtures. CRW output describes the hazards qualitatively; e.g., spontaneous ignition of reactants or products due to reaction heat, or combination liberates nonflammable, nontoxic gas and may cause pressurization. The CRW also provides summaries of properties and special hazards for many of the compounds in the database. CRW 2.0, a new, standalone version of the CRW, is due to be released later this year. Earlier versions of the CRW had a limited set of references and limited information about specific reactions, and this information could only be found in each compound's chemical profile, increasing search time for assessing reaction specifics, and providing little information that could be used to mitigate the chance of false-positives - the CRW is designed to be conservative in its predictions, and will indicate an incompatibility even if only a few reactions are found between two functional groups. Version 2.0 improves the database based on an extensive literature survey of potentially hazardous reactions for representative members of all 43 listed functional groups, with primary literature references available for many of the hazards predicted, and many errors and omissions corrected. This article describes the methodology for the literature search, rationale for changes to the operation of the database, extent of the new documentation, and the remaining design limitations of the product.

As part of a larger community-based project volunteers helped create three mussel reefs in each of two locations within the pond in May 2001. Restoration project methodology and success were evaluated during the summer of 2001 and again in May 2002 by 1) assessing reef population dynamics (size frequency distribution, density, and movement) and 2) comparing faunal utilization (finfish species and abundance) within the reefs to that in adjacent reference areas. Created reefs showed declines in density after the first month but then increased and showed new recruitment the following year. Reef footprints were dynamic and probably influenced by mussel density as well as local hydrology. Four finfish species were observed: Atlantic silverside (Menidia menidia), mummichog (Fundulus heteroditus), four-spined stickleback (Apeltes quadracus), and three-spined stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus). The most common fish in reef and reference areas (silverside and mummichog, respectively) are highly mobile species. Reef areas had greater species diversity per sampling effort than reference areas, but no difference in overall fish abundance was found between adjacent reef and reference areas. Information collected to date indicates that mussel reefs constructed at the pond appear to be functioning as a natural system, acting to improve water quality and provide shelter for small fish and other nektonic and epibenthic invertebrates. In addition, volunteer action garnered city involvement and increased local awareness of the pond as an ecosystem rather than a sewage lagoon. Community awareness along with habitat improvements will increase the long-term prospects for rehabilitation of South Mill Pond.

Weight-based growth rates were calculated for smolts reared in the laboratory for 4 weeks. Gill, muscle, scale, and caudal fin tissues were sampled to evaluate sampling ease during fieldwork, the quantity of RNA and DNA available for analysis, and the correlation of R/D with growth rate. Muscle provided adequate tissue for nucleic acid analysis, was strongly correlated with recent growth rates, and could be easily sampled in the field using a biopsy punch. Gill tissue did not provide adequate RNA for analysis with an ethidium-bromide-based microplate fluorometric assay, and R/Ds from scale and fin tissues were poorly correlated with growth rate.

We can quantify the answer by defining the areas contributing to this location during various time periods as "resource sheds." Various resource sheds and their source material distributions are rigorously defined and properties derived. For watershed hydrology, we compute resource sheds and their source distributions with a spatially distributed hydrology model by tracing water departing from a "cell" (say 1 km super(2)) over one time interval, traveling through intermediate cells soil, groundwater, and surface zones, and arriving at the watershed mouth in another time interval. This requires modeling all cells, but only tracing contributions from one at a time. By then combining these simulations for all cell loadings, we construct a map of the contributions over the entire watershed for specific departure and arrival time intervals. We then combine results of several sets of simulations to determine the source distribution for any time period and infer resource sheds from these mappings. We give examples for the Maumee River watershed in northern Ohio, discuss computation reduction, and suggest future extensions to other materials.

Emergence timing differed by up to 5 weeks between families, with a highly significant difference between females. Within females there was no significant effect of male life history type on either median emergence timing or fry size; however, there was a suggestion of a relationship between individual sire and progeny emergence timing. There were significant differences in fry weight at emergence between the two females, but sire did not influence fry weight at emergence within females. This study demonstrates that ecologically significant differences in emergence timing may be generated solely through genetic and maternal affects, as all parents were spawned on the same day and all progeny were reared within a common thermal regime.

To address this information need, we examined the distribution and habitat use of Pacific sand lances by sampling a variety of shallow-water habitats (depth < 6 m) with a beach seine seasonally throughout southeastern Alaska from 1998 to 2006. An estimated 81,939 Pacific sand lances were captured at 31 of 49 locations and in 109 of 610 seine hauls. Total catch and percent frequency of occurrence (FO; [number of seine hauls with Pacific sand lances/total number of hauls] x 100) was greatest in summer (73,033 fish, FO = 21%), followed by spring (8,857 fish, 18%) and winter (49 fish, 1%). Pacific sand lances were captured in all habitat types; total catch in spring ranged from 16 fish in understory kelp (e.g., Laminariales) to 8,525 fish in bedrock outcrops, whereas total catch in summer ranged from 5,858 fish in sand to 54,851 fish in eelgrass Zostera marina. The FO was relatively consistent among the above habitat types and ranged from 15% to 20% in spring and from 15% to 35% in summer. Pacific sand lances use a variety of shallow-water habitats for at least 4 months in spring and summer; habitat is not limited to sandy substrates for burrowing but also includes bedrock, eelgrass, and kelp as likely foraging areas. Age-1 and younger Pacific sand lances dominated our catches; size range of captured fish was 39-168 mm fork length. The importance of Pacific sand lances in the diets of other fishes, seabirds, and marine mammals justifies the need to better understand, protect, and manage habitats that are essential to Pacific sand lances.

Simulations with realistic topography and stratification suggest that this overturning has its origins in transient internal hydraulic jumps that occur below the shelf break at maximum ebb tide, and then propagate up the slope as internal bores when the flow reverses. A series of numerical simulations explores the parameter space of topographic slope, barotropic velocity, stratification, and forcing frequency to identify the parameter regime in which these internal jumps are possible. Theoretical analysis predicts that the tidally driven jumps may occur when the vertical tidal excursion is large, which is shown to imply steep topographic slopes, such that dh/dxN/w > 1. The vertical length scale of the jumps is predicted to depend on the flow speed such that the jump Froude number is of order unity. The numerical results agree with the theoretical predictions, with finite-amplitude internal hydraulic jumps and overturning forming during strong offslope tidal flow over steep slopes. These results suggest that internal hydraulic jumps may be an important mechanism for local tidally generated mixing at tall steep topography.

The meteorological droughts and wet spells were identified based on the 6-month standardized precipitation index (SPI 6) calculated from P averaged over the Southeast. These events indicate that a drought (or wet spell) over the Southeast is more likely to start during a cold (warm) ENSO winter or early spring. The influence of ENSO on P is seasonally dependent. The P composites for cold ENSO events show positive P anomalies over the Southeast in winter but negative anomalies in summer. For warm ENSO events, the situation reverses. Therefore, a persistent cold (warm) ENSO from winter to summer does not create favorable conditions for drought (wet spells) to persist over the Southeast. While cold ENSO events are more likely to initiate droughts, droughts are likely to persist if the cold (warm) ENSO winter is followed by an ENSO neutral summer.

He served as director of the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL) for nearly 30 yr (1955-83); and during his tenure as director, this organization substantially contributed to advances in weather forecasting and climate diagnostics/prediction. The purpose of this research is to explore Smagorinsky's philosophy of science and style of management which were central to the success of GFDL. Information herein comes from his early scientific publications, personal letters and notes in the possession of his family, several oral histories, and letters of reminiscence from scientists who worked within and outside GFDL. The principal results of the study are that 1) early inspiration and development of Smagorinsky's scientific philosophy came from his contact with Jule Charney and Harry Wexler, 2) his doctoral dissertation ideally prepared him for appointment as director of the U.S. Weather Bureau's long-range numerical prediction project in 1955-the General Circulation Research Section (later renamed GFDL), 3) he masterfully assembled a team of researchers to attack the challenging problem of general circulation modeling, and 4) he exhibited an authoritarian style of rule tempered by protection of the scientists from disrupting outside influence while celebrating the elitism and esprit de corps that characterized the laboratory. A list of Smagorinsky's management principles is found in the appendix. Several of these tenets have been interspersed in the main body of the paper in support of actions he took at GFDL.

Although models that combined BIA measures with fish wet mass provided strong predictions of total energy, total lipids, and total dry mass for whole fish, including BIA provided only slightly better predictions than using fish mass alone. Regression models that used BIA measures to directly predict the energy density or percent lipids of whole fish were generally better than those using body mass alone (based on Akaike's information criterion). However, the goodness of fit of models that used BIA measures varied widely across species and at best explained only slightly more than one-half the variation observed in fish energy density or percent lipids. Models that combined BIA measures with body mass for prediction had the strongest correlations between predicted and observed energy density or percent lipids for a validation group of fish, but there were significant biases in these predictions. For example, the models underestimated energy density and percent lipids for lipid-rich fish and overestimated energy density and percent lipids for lipid-poor fish. A comparison of observed versus predicted whole-fish energy densities and percent lipids demonstrated that models that incorporated BIA measures had lower maximum percent error than models without BIA measures in them, although the errors for the BIA models were still generally high (energy density: 15-18%; percent lipids: 82-89%). Considerable work is still required before BIA can provide reliable predictions of whole-fish energy density and percent lipids, including understanding how temperature, electrode placement, and the variation in lipid distribution within a fish affect BIA measures.

Current estimates of biomass burning emissions vary markedly due to uncertainties in biomass density, combustion efficiency, emission factor, and burned area. This study explores the modeling of biomass burning emissions using satellite-derived vegetative fuel loading, fuel moisture, and burned area across Contiguous United States (CONUS). The fuel loading is developed from Moderate-Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) data including land cover type, vegetation continuous field, and monthly leaf area index. The weekly fuel moisture category is retrieved from AVHRR (Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer) Global Vegetation Index (GVIx) data for the determination of fuel combustion efficiency and emission factor. The burned area is simulated using half-hourly fire sizes obtained from the GOES (Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellites) Wildfire Automated Biomass Burning Algorithm (WF_ABBA) fire product. By integrating all these parameters, quantities of PM2.5 (particulate mass for particles with diameter <2.5 mu m) aerosols are calculated for each individual fire at an interval of half hour from 2002-2005 across CONUS. The PM2.5 estimates indicate that the annual PM2.5 emissions are 3.49x10 super(5), 3.30x10 super(5), 1.80x10 super(5), and 2.24x10 super(5) tons for 2002 (April to December), 2003, 2004, and 2005, respectively. Among various ecosystems, forest fires release more than 44% of the emissions although the related burned areas only account for less than 30%. Spatially, PM2.5 emissions are larger in California for all these years, but only for some individual years in Oregon, Montana, Arkansas, Florida, Arizona, Louisiana, and Idaho. Finally, the calculated PM2.5 emissions are evaluated using national wildfire emission inventory data (NWEI) and compared with estimates from different fuel loadings. The difference between NWEI and GOES fire-based estimate is less than 20% if the same fuel data are used. The evaluation suggests that the biomass burning emissions derived from multiple satellite data provide realistic spatiotemporal patterns and can be assimilated into air quality models for forecasts in real or near real time.

The consequences for growth and survival of early and late hatching larvae were examined in pre-feeding Pacific cod larvae under varying temperatures (i.e. 0-8 degree C) in the laboratory. As expected, time-to-first hatch and variation in time-to-hatch were negatively correlated with temperature. Larvae successfully hatched in the 0 degree C treatment, but hatch rates were poorer at this temperature relative to other temperature treatments. Size-at-hatch and the maximum size achieved during the pre-feeding larval stage were highest in the 0-4 degree C treatments, indicating that these temperatures are likely optimal for the conversion of endogenous resources to growth. At all temperatures, early hatching larvae were smaller but had more lipid reserves and survived longer after hatch in the absence of food than late hatching larvae. Together these data suggest that temperature fluctuations in the North Pacific have direct potential to impact the size, growth and endogenous reserves of Pacific cod larvae, which in turn, will likely influence survival through interactions with the prey and predator field.

We used trawl survey data spanning phase transitions in the North Pacific (Gulf of Alaska) and the North Atlantic (Scotian Shelf) to test for increases in ecosystem variability that might provide early warning of such transitions. In both time series, elevated spatial variability in a measure of community composition (ratio of cod [Gadus sp.] abundance to prey abundance) accompanied transitions between ecosystem states, and variability was negatively correlated with distance from the ecosystem transition point. In the Gulf of Alaska, where the phase transition was apparently the result of a sudden perturbation (climate regime shift), variance increased one year before the transition in mean state occurred. On the Scotian Shelf, where ecosystem reorganization was the result of persistent overfishing, a significant increase in variance occurred three years before the transition in mean state was detected. However, we could not reject the alternate explanation that increased variance may also have simply been inherent to the final stable state in that ecosystem. Increased variance has been previously observed around transition points in models, but rarely in real ecosystems, and our results demonstrate the possible management value in tracking the variance of key parameters in exploited ecosystems.

The focus of the study is on the low-level winds that control the transport and dispersion of pollutants in the Central Valley. An analysis of surface and wind profiler observations from the CCOS field experiment indicates a number of important low-level flows in the Central Valley: 1) the incoming low-level marine airflow through the Carquinez Strait into the Sacramento River delta, 2) the diurnal cycle of upslope-downslope flows, 3) the up- and down-valley flow in the Sacramento Valley, 4) the nocturnal low-level jet in the San Joaquin Valley, and 5) the orographically induced mesoscale eddies (the Fresno and Schultz eddies). A numerical simulation using the advanced research version of the Weather Research and Forecasting Model (WRF) reproduces the overall pattern of the observed low-level flows. The physical reasons behind the quantitative differences between the observed and simulated low-level winds are also analyzed and discussed, although not enough observations are available to diagnose thoroughly the model-error sources. In particular, hodograph analysis is applied to provide physical insight into the impact of the large-scale, upper-level winds on the locally forced low-level winds. It is found that the diurnal rotation of the observed and simulated hodographs of the local winds varies spatially in the Central Valley, resulting from the combining effect of topographically induced local forcing and the interaction between the upper-level winds and the aforementioned low-level flows. The trajectory analysis not only further confirms that WRF reproduces the observed low-level transport processes reasonably well but also shows that the simulated upper-level winds have noticeable errors. The results from this study strongly suggest that the errors in the WRF-simulated low-level winds are related not only to the errors in the model's surface conditions and atmospheric boundary layer physics but also to the errors in the upper-level forcing mostly prescribed in the model's lateral boundary conditions.

Water temperatures during the larval period significantly affect year-class strength, but the actual mechanisms are unclear. We evaluated the match-mismatch hypothesis as a potential explanation because the timing of the shrimp hatch is strongly dependent on temperature, and the timing of the spring bloom in coastal waters of the Gulf of Maine is dependent primarily on solar insolation. Timing of the shrimp hatch was estimated from biological sampling of commercial shrimp landings; bloom timing was estimated from satellite ocean colour images. The offset in bloom-hatch timing was correlated with early life survival of shrimp estimated from fishery-independent survey data. Shrimp survival was highest in years when the bloom onset was about 40 days earlier than the median hatch date, and poorest in years when the bloom onset coincided more closely with the median hatch date. We hypothesize that a relatively early bloom leads to higher zooplankton biomass at the time of the shrimp hatch. A strong positive relationship between shrimp survival rates and mean zooplankton volume during the larval period supports this hypothesis. The loose coupling between processes determining the timing of the shrimp hatch and the evolution of their food source suggests that northern shrimp recruitment may become increasingly variable under climate-induced warming of the Gulf of Maine.

The MRFSS complemented surveys design includes a random digit dialling telephone survey to estimate fishing effort (number of angler fishing trips) and a stratified access point survey to separately estimate catch rate (number of fish caught per angler trip) by species for shore, private/rental boat, and for-hire boat fishing. Total catch of a given species is estimated as the product of total estimated effort and the estimated catch rate for that species. Because the telephone survey is restricted to a band of coastal counties, the access point survey collects residence and phone ownership data that are used to estimate appropriate effort corrections. The access point survey is based on a complex sampling design that includes probability-proportional-to-size sampling, as well as multistage cluster sampling. Methods used for the estimation of catch rates have ignored this complexity, assuming simple random sampling. Estimation methods also assume access point sampling is representative for all fishing sites and periods, but telephone survey data indicate that private access and night-time fishing trips have been underrepresented. In collaboration with stakeholders, NMFS has initiated studies to revise the MRFSS estimation methods and evaluate potential biases that may have resulted from simplifying estimation assumptions. The results of these studies will inform decisions on how to improve sampling and estimation methods for future access point surveys.

The United States National Marine Fisheries Service of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA Fisheries) has statutory authority to conduct surveys of marine recreational fishing to obtain this information. The For-Hire Survey (FHS) specifically gathers information on fishing effort (number of angler trips) and catch by marine recreational anglers fishing on for-hire (charter boat and headboat) vessels. The FHS consists of two independent, yet complementary surveys: a vessel-directory telephone survey to assess fishing effort, and an access-point intercept survey to assess catch per unit of effort. Data from the two surveys are combined to estimate total fishing effort and catch by species. The telephone survey portion of the FHS has been conducted for the Gulf of Mexico in Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana from 1997 to the present. Trip-level information obtained includes the number of anglers, the hours fished, the area (or water body) fished, the time of day of the fishing trip, and the state and county where the trip landed. Telephone surveys are conducted weekly and effort estimates are produced for each survey week. Aggregated bimonthly effort estimates are used to produce catch and harvest estimates of all finfish species encountered by the access point intercept survey. This survey approach is more efficient and produces more credible estimates of effort than the Coastal Household Telephone Survey, which employs a random digit dialling protocol for contacting recreational anglers residing in the coastal zone.

Recognizing this relationship, researchers in Canada developed a broad-scale modelling approach primarily using hydrographic data. This approach has become known as the Kostylev Approach, named after the principal developer. Researchers at the Northeast Fisheries Science Center (NEFSC) applied the Kostylev Approach to data collected in the Gulf of Maine. The model output is in the form of maps that characterize habitats in terms of their "growth potential" for biota as well as mechanical "disturbance". Comparisons of these outputs with data from the NEFSC trawl surveys revealed correlations for many managed fish species, including redfish, summer flounder, winter flounder, and cod. This approach has potential as an important tool in fishery management.

These methods can suffer from inefficiency, incomplete coverage of target populations, non-response, and/or reporting delays. To address these shortcomings, an alternative design that integrates independent recreational fishing data collection programmes in a dual-frame approach was developed. The methodology borrows strengths from the individual survey components to produce a comprehensive, yet efficient design. We present two applications of the dual-frame methodology. The first application integrates census logbook reporting and list-based sampling to estimate fishing effort on for-hire vessels. The second approach integrates random-digit dial sampling and list-based sampling to estimate fishing effort in shore and private-boat modes.

To support the detection and prediction of ecosystem change in the North Pacific Ocean, it is beneficial to discover data holdings with a single search, rather than having to access each country's records, perhaps stored in different languages and formats. We report on the creation of a PICES "metadata federation" of Member Countries (Canada, People's Republic of China, Japan, Republic of Korea, Russian Federation, and USA). Through English-language coding of metadata using the Federal Geographic Data Committee standard, acquisition, installation, and configuration of ANSI Z39.50-1995 (ISO 10163-1995) open-source communications software on a public-access server, and registration with a clearinghouse, it is possible for any metadata-serving agency to become part of the PICES Metadata Federation. The Federation allows an Internet user to search the collected metadata holdings of any or all members, thus providing access to information across national holdings in a single search. To date, metadata collections from Japan, the Russian Federation, Republic of Korea, USA, and China are federated. This activity supports PICES' goals: (i) to promote and coordinate marine scientific research in the northern North Pacific and adjacent marginal seas; (ii) to advance scientific knowledge of the ocean environment, global weather and climate change, living resources and their ecosystems, and the impact of human activities on them; and (iii) to promote the collection and rapid exchange of scientific information on these issues.

The model indicated that lambda , is far more sensitive to changes in mortality rates of early life stages than it is to changes in adult mortality or fecundity. We are currently applying the model to address a recent paradox in the Gulf of Mexico penaeid fishery. Three indices of white shrimp stock size in the northern Gulf indicate that lambda has increased by similar to 20% over the last decade, despite the continued loss of coastal marshes in this region. However, during early stages of marsh disintegration the amount of valuable marsh-edge habitat increases, and it has been hypothesized that this process could be responsible for the observed increases in lambda . To account for this increase, the model estimates adult mortality would need to have reduced by 95%, or fecundity tripled, whereas juvenile mortality would need to reduce by less than 30%. We will combine the model outputs with existing distribution patterns of shrimp in the marsh landscape, habitat-specific mortality estimates, and models of marsh disintegration to calculate the changes in the marsh landscape required to produce the estimated reduction in juvenile mortality. Comparison of these changes with those required in other vital rates will clarify the importance of various habitats and processes that regulate vital rates throughout the life cycle, and provide insights into potential impacts of future changes in the marsh landscape.

Although many diadromous species will benefit from the PRRP directly, other species such as endangered Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar), alewife (Alosa pseudoharengus), and American shad (Alosa sapidissima) may require additional habitat improvements (barrier removal, fishways, etc.) or stocking. Thus, additional active restoration measures may be required to realize the full potential of the PRRP. Owing to the high profile and high cost of the project as well as numerous state, federal, and non-governmental organizations involved, there is a need to prioritize restoration efforts in the basin to increase the probability of success. To help facilitate this goal, we have created an ecologically based GIS tool to help set restoration goals and to help identify and prioritize restoration opportunities (stocking options, barrier removal, and fishway improvements). Initial data inputs for the model include spawning habitats for a shortened list of focal species, a habitat weighting variable, and passage barriers (location and passage state). The outputs of the model are ecologically based targets for focal species and prioritized lists of restoration projects based on their biological merits, rather than being selected as opportunities arise. These outputs will help to ensure that restoration efforts and money are targeted appropriately and that achievable goals are set.

[Part 1 of 1] T2 - OPERATIONAL MEASURES TO REDUCE SHIP STRIKES TO NORTH ATLANTIC RIGHT WHALES. AN - 873125212; 13559-4_0001 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of the North Atlantic Right Whale Ship Strike Reduction Strategy is proposed to reduce the occurrence and severity of vessel collisions with endangered North Atlantic right whales in waters off the East Coast of the United States. Due to regional differences in right whale distribution and behavior, oceanographic conditions, and ship traffic patterns, the proposed operational measures would apply only in certain areas and at certain times of the year or under certain conditions. To account for these regional variations, the East Coast is divided into three implementation regions, namely, the northeastern U.S. (NEUS), mid-Atlantic U.S. (MAUS), and southeastern U.S. (SEUS). All vessels 65 feet or longer and subject to the jurisdiction of the U.S. would be require to abide by the operational measures, except for vessels owned or operated by, or under contract to, the federal government. The measures would also apply to all other vessels 65 feet or greater in length entering or departing a port or pace under the jurisdiction of the U.S. The proposed measures would include the following: seasonal management areas (SMAs), establishing seasons and geographic areas where speed restrictions of 10, 12, or 13 knots; dynamic management areas, occurring where and when a certain number of whales were sighted in an area outside the boundaries of, or at time when, SMAs are implemented; and routing measures, applying to the NEUS in Cape Cod Bay to deflect vessel traffic away from whale aggregations and restrict vessel speed and the SEUS to provide for routing measures and speed restrictions around the ports of Jacksonville and Fernandina Beach, Florida and Brunswick, Georgia. In addition to the preferred alternative (Alternative 6) outlined above, this final EIS addresses four action alternatives and a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1); the No action Alternative would continue to implement existing measures and programs to reduce the likelihood of whale strikes. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Vessel speed and area restrictions would significantly reduce the number of vessel collisions with right whales, other whale species, and other marine mammals. In general, vessel collisions with objects of all kinds, including other vessels, would be reduced, improving navigational safety along the East Coast. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The preferred alternative would result in estimated annual economic losses on port areas due to speed reductions of $107.4 million at 10 knots, $56.4 million at 12 knots, and $30.2 million at 14 knots. Commercial fishing vessel operators would suffer an annual loss of $1.0 million if a restriction of 10 knots were imposed. Ferry vessel operators would suffer annual losses of $5.6 million at 10 knots, $4.6 million at 12 knots, and $3.6 million at 14 knots. Whale watching vessel operators would suffer annual losses of $900,000 at 10 knots, $700,000 at 12 knots, and $500,000 million at 14 knots. Charter vessel operators would suffer annual economic losses of $1.2 million at 10 knots, $720,000 at 12 knots, and $240,000 at 14 knots.

Preparation date: August 22, 2008 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - ACCEPTABLE BIOLOGICAL CATCH AND OPTIMUM YIELD SPECIFICATIONS AND MANAGEMENT MEASURES FOR THE 2009-2010 PACIFIC COAST GROUNDFISH FISHERY. AN - 16385722; 13556 AB - PURPOSE: The establishment of 2009-2010 groundfish specifications and management measures, with emphasis on acceptable biological catch (ABC) and optimum yield (OY), for the Pacific Coast groundfish fishery is proposed. The Pacific Coast Groundfish Fishery Management Plan (FMP) establishes a framework authorizing the range and type of measures that may be used to exploit the fishery, presents objectives, under broad categories, that management measures must satisfy, and describes more specific criteria for determining the level of harvest that will provide the greatest overall benefit to the nation. Fisheries subject to the management measures include limited entry trawl fisheries, limited entry fixed gear (pot and longline) fisheries, and a variety of other fisheries catching groundfish, either as target species or incidentally, but not license limited under the management framework established in the FMP. Allocations to tribal fisheries in Washington state are also identified. Seven groundfish species have been declared overfished and measures to prevent overfishing and rebuild these overfished stocks are a central element of the proposed action; the species include bacaccio, canary rockfish, cowcod, darkblotched rockfish, Pacific ocean perch, widow rockfish, and yelloweye rockfish. The proposed action would establish harvest guidelines for groundfish species, species groups, and geographic subunits. In order to constrain fisheries to these harvest guidelines, management measures for commercial and recreational fisheries are identified. OYs and ABCs would be established for all groundfish constituting the fishery. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The establishment of the OYs and ABCs and associated management measures would ensure that Pacific Coast groundfish subject to federal management are harvested in an manner by which sustainable use of these fishery resources can be maintained, supporting economic exploitation of the fishery and maintaining fishery stocks at appropriate levels for regeneration. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Commercial and recreational fisheries could lose significant direct ex-vessel revenues. Optimum yields for the overfished species could be exceeded, possibly requiring more severe restrictions in the future. Buyers and processors would also lost income. Communities, including tribal communities would suffer economic losses as well. Enforcement costs could increase. Though the pressure placed on Chinook salmon and humpback whale by groundfish fishing in general and sablefish pots, respectively, is known, the extent of the damage under the proposed OYs, ABCs, and supporting measures cannot be known based on the available data.

Preparation date: August 22, 2008 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - SITKA ROCKY GUTIERREZ AIRPORT, SITKA, ALASKA. AN - 16374288; 13544 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of improvements for Sitka Rocky Gutierrez Airport near Sitka, Alaska is proposed. Sitka is located on the west coast of Baranof Island fronting the Pacific Ocean on Sitka Sound, 95 miles southwest of Juneau and 185 miles northwest of Ketchikan. The airport lies approximately 1.5 miles southwest of the central business district. The city is accessible only by air and sea. In addition to functioning as the city's only municipal airport, the facility, which was constructed in 1960, supports U.S. Coast Guard air station and other facilities on nearby Japonski Island. Under the federal National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems, the airport is classified as a primary non-hub commercial service airport. The facility features one 6,500-foot-long, 150-foot-wide runway (Runway 11/29) and a partial taxiway. Two taxiways and connectors provide the partial taxiway system, and the facility also features a terminal facility, and general aviation facilities. The major actions proposed under the improvement project would include improvements to runway safety areas, construction of a full-length parallel taxiway, relocation of the seaplane pullout from west of the runway, install an approach lighting system, repair and improve the airport seawall, and acquire additional property needed for expansion of the facility. This draft EIS considers varying numbers of alternatives are considered for each type of improvement, including a No Action Alternative (in each case, Alternative 1). The preferred alternative is identified for each type of improvement. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The improvements would provide runway safety areas that meet federal guidance; reduce the potential for runway incursions and, thereby, improve the safety and efficiency of aircraft operations; improve the ability of aircraft to land and/or takeoff during inclement weather; maintain the structural integrity of the runway and prevent closure of the runway resulting from wave overtopping and associated storm debris; obtain property rights sufficient to provide lands for current and future aviation uses. The increased capacity and availability of the airport in nearly all weathers would provide a significant economic boost to island inhabitants. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The project would require placement of 371,200 cubic yards of fill into the Sitka Sound, violating the guidelines of the Alaska Coastal Management Program and the Sitka Coastal Management Program. The area of placement is affected by coastal flooding, and the displacement of open water would displace floodwater storage capacity. The new seaplane pullout would also damage coastal values. Construction of the runway safety area would displace 622 linear feet of shoreline and 1.93 acres of open water and benthic habitat due to rock placement. Bird habitat would be fragmented by taxiway facilities. Construction workers would be likely to encounter hazardous military wastes on the seafloor.

Preparation date: August 14, 2008 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - ISSUANCE OF AN INDIVIDUAL TAKE PERMIT FOR THE ELLIOT STATE FOREST HABITAT CONSERVATION PLAN, OREGON. AN - 16385679; 13539 AB - PURPOSE: The amendment of an existing incidental take permit (ITP) issued, under the Federal Endangered Species Act (ESA), to the Oregon Department of Forestry (ODF) is proposed in relation to the ODF's habitat conservation plan (HCP) for the Elliott State Forest (ESF). The ODF seeks this authorization so that activities associated with implementation of the 2006 revision of the ESF management plan comply with the ESA, while providing protection for three species listed under the ESA and an additional 15 species currently not listed under the ESA. The ESF encompasses 93,000 acres of forest constituting a contiguous block 18 miles long from north to south and 16 miles wide in Coos and Douglas counties. The ESF is currently managed under a plan established in 1994. The ODF holds an ITP for potential take of northern spotted owl on the ESF through 2050, and is seeking to extend the ITP coverage to marbled murrelet and coho salmon, both of which are federally listed as threatened, and potentially to 15 other unlisted species if those species are listed in the future. In addition to the ODF proposal, this draft EIS considers the No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), which would perpetuate the 1994 ESF management plan, and an alternative that would establishing riparian management areas to buffer streams from impacts of logging and Road construction and use and upland conservation areas to provide habitat for species in late successional forest stands. The proposed permit amendment would result in the maintenance of 40 to 60 percent of the ESF in advanced structure stands, 25 to 55 percent in intermediate structure stands, and 5 to 15 percent in early structure stands. Approximately 24 percent of the ESF (22,598 acres) would be maintained in conservation areas, with little or no management actions being taken. Approximately 50 percent of the advanced structure forest would have at least eight trees per acre with diameters at breast height of at least 32 inches. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Amendment of the ITP as requested would allow the ODF to manage the ESF for commercial logging as proposed in the 2006 management plan. Plan implementation would provide a sustainable, even-flow harvest of timber, averaging 39.7 million board-feet (MMBF) annually during the first decade and maintaining that level through the fifth decade. Intensive forest management would likely maintain a healthy forest resistant to insect infestation, disease epidemics, and wildland fire. The HCP associated with the ITP would address the needs of six bird, eight fish, one mammal, and three amphibian species. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The extent of clearcut harvest would increase ladder fuels and the potential for landslides in the Umpqua and Tenmile watersheds. The extent of advanced forest structure favored by the northern spotted owl and the marbled murrelet would decline by 4,503 acres (9 percent). The extent of forest over 100 years old would decrease by 8,680 acres (22 percent). Soil disturbance and related erosion and sedimentation would increase, affecting riparian management areas LEGAL MANDATES: Endangered Species Act of 1973 (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.).

Preparation date: August 13, 2008 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - INTERSTATE 73, FROM I-19 TO FUTURE INTERSTATE 74, DILLON AND MARLBOROUGH COUNTIES, SOUTH CAROLINA AND RICHMOND AND SCOTT COUNTIES, NORTH CAROLINA. AN - 16376443; 13542 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a segment of Interstate 73 (I-73) on new alignment in northeastern South Carolina is proposed. Through the portion of the project to be addressed in this EIS process is located in South Carolina, the project study area extends northwest from I-95 and is bounded by the North Carolina/South Carolina state line to the east, by a line just north of future I-73/74 in North Carolina, and to the west by the eastern edge of the Great Pee Dee River floodplain. The project would extend from I-95 in Dillon County and through Marlboro County in South Carolina and into Richmond County, North Carolina, terminating at I-74 in Richmond County. The typical roadway section would accommodate a six-lane facility with corridors for future rail lines and allowances for frontage roads where necessary. The initial facility would accommodate two traffic lanes in each direction. In the future, when traffic volumes increased to a pint at which additional lanes were necessary to maintain an acceptable level of service, an additional lane in each direction would be added within the median. A 400-foot rights-of-way would be acquired where frontage roads were necessary. Where frontage roads were not required, a 300-foot rights-of-way would be acquired. Three Alternative Alignments and a No-Build Alternative Are considered in this final EIS. The action alternatives vary in length from 36.8 to 40.6 miles. These alternatives would have interchanges at I-95, State Route (SR) 34, SR 381 or SR 9, US 15/401, SR 79, or SR 9, and I-71. The preferred alternative (Alternative 2), which extends 36.8 miles, was selected as it would have the least impact on wetlands and farmland, the lowest cost, and the fewest residential and business relocations. Construction cost for the preferred alternative is estimated at $1.08 billion. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The new segment of freeway would provide an interstate link between the southernmost proposed segment of I-73 (between I-95 and the Myrtle Beach area) and the North Carolina I-73/74 corridor, to serve residents, businesses, and travelers while fulfilling congressional intent in an environmentally responsible and community-sensitive manner. The project would promote economic development in Richmond, Scotland, Marlboro, and Dillon counties and provide a corridor for future rail connections. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Rights-of-way development under the preferred alternative would result in the displacement of 35 residences and six businesses, 1,505 acres of farmland, 114.3 acres of wetlands, 8,143 linear feet of stream at 24 stream crossings, 1,800.8 acres of upland wildlife habitat, and 25 acres of floodplain. Approximately 804.9 acres within the corridor would have a high potential for containing archaeological values. The facility would traverse four rail lines and two natural gas pipelines. Eight communities populated by minority and/or low income residents would suffer disproportionately from community disruptions cause by construction and use of the freeway. Construction workers would encounter one hazardous waste site.
