    Importance of remote sensing for the study of spatial dynamics of estuarine neuston from southern Chile
    2020-11-04
    Zooplankton aggregation, hydrographic and remote sensing data were employed to relate the spatial dynamics of neustonic communities with chlorophyll a (Chl <i>a</i>) and suspended organic matter (SOM) at a spatial mesoscale (10 to 1000 km) in the southern Chilean fjords system along Magellan Strait, Chile (CIMAR 16: October/November 2010 and CIMAR 25; September/October 2019) in order to identify oceanographic process producing aggregation of neuston. Preliminary evidence of CIMAR 25 shows significant concentrations of Chl <i>a</i> and SOM around Dawson Island (DI), Magellan Strait. During CIMAR 16 important aggregation of specific neustonic taxa (copepodites of <i>Microsetella rosea</i>, larvae of the polychaete <i>Polygordius sp</i> and cyphonautes of the bryozoan <i>Membranipora isabelleana</i>) was observed around DI, Magellan Strait. Satelital images in the area of CIMAR 16 provide evidence of important aggregation of chlorophyll <i>a</i>/SOM around DI. CIMAR Cimar 25 showed that the Chl <i>a</i> and SOM aggregation around DI is recurrent and could to explain the high concentration of neuston around this island to spite of mesotrophic conditions. Remote sensing in this study area provides a tool to understanding oceanographic and topographic factors that potentially regulate the abundance and spatial distribution of surface zooplankton to spatial meso-scale along Magellan Strait.

    Upwelling coastal systems can be used to understand how dissolved oxygen and biological productivity control the accumulation of redox-sensitive metals in marine sediments. The aluminium (Al), cadmium (Cd), iron (Fe), nickel (Ni), molybdenum (Mo), vanadium (V), total organic carbon (TOC), total nitrogen (TN) and total sulfur (TS) contents in surficial sediment collected from different water depths (30, 70, and 120 m) in three northern Chilean bays influenced by coastal upwelling and oxygen minimum zones (OMZs) were measured. Principal component analysis (PCA), cluster analysis, and Spearman's rank correlation were used to identify the mechanisms responsible for the redox-sensitive metal accumulation. The content of redox-sensitive metals and organic components in sediment increased with increasing water column depth, whereas lithogenic metals decreased. In the Mejillones del Sur and Caldera bays, the enrichment factors of the redox-sensitive metals showed enrichment for all metals with depth. The Cd and V enrichments are mainly the product of biogenic flow to the seabed, and the Mo and Ni enrichments are due to preservation under low subsurface oxygen conditions. Sulfate reduction is not an important mechanism in the accumulation of redox-sensitive metals in the sediment of the three bays. The PCA showed that the behaviors of the redox-sensitive metals and organic components reflect differences in the effects of the OMZ in sediment along the coast of northern Chile, with a more intense OMZ in Mejillones del Sur bay and weaker OMZs in Caldera and Inglesa bays. However, the high degree of enrichment in redox-sensitive metals in Caldera Bay can be attributed to the intense activity of the mining industry near the bay, a situation that produces geochemical behavior similar to that observed in Mejillones del Sur Bay.

    Patagonian aquatic environments have been invaded since the end of the last century by different species of salmonids. Knowing the natal origin and homing/straying rate of the salmonids in colonised environments is essential to under-standing the dispersal mechanisms and developing management plans. In the last two decades, Chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha showed the greatest natural dispersal capacity in Patagonia. The main goal of this study was to evaluate the environmental strontium isotope ratio (87Sr/86Sr) as a potential natural tag to infer the natal origin and ontogenetic habitat use of salmonids in Patagonia, specifically Chinook salmon. 87Sr/86Sr ratio was determined in water samples from 26 sites distributed in 14 Atlantic and Pacific basins in low and high water seasons. Environmental 87Sr/86Sr showed greater spatial than temporal variation, revealing great potential as a tool to infer the natal origin and life history of several migratory fish species in Patagonia. Otolith core-to-edge 87Sr/86Sr profiles were also analysed in 108 Chinook salmon from six basins. A cluster analysis based on the Unweighted Pair Group method (UPGMA) and Euclidean distances without prior classification grouped the sampled rivers into five main groups with significantly dif-ferent (p < 0.05) isotopic ratios, sometimes integrated basins with different slopes (Atlantic or Pacific). The cluster analysis based on the natal 87Sr/86Sr period in otolith (similar to natal origin) showed clear segregation between the Atlantic and Pacific samples. A mismatch between water and otolith natal 87Sr/86Sr ratio was detected in some Atlantic basins (e.g. De las Vueltas River in Santa Cruz Basin) and Pacific (e.g. Liquine Basin) and, which could be explained either by straying behaviours or by large geochemical variability between tributaries, within river systems. Our results showed that 87Sr/86Sr is a useful natural tag to trace the life history of migratory fishes in Patagonia, especially for in-vasive species such as Chinook salmon.

    Se integraron datos hidrogrÔficos y abundancia del meroplancton para determinar la posible influencia de la salinidad sobre la dinÔmica espacial de la abundancia de exolarvas del poliqueto Polygordius sp. en estuarios del sur de Chile. Los objetivos del presente estudio fueron: i) determinar la abundancia y la distribución espacial de exolarvas neustónicas del poliqueto Polygordius en una zona estuarial con diferentes gradientes de salinidad localizada entre el canal Guafo, sur de isla de Chiloé (44° S) hasta isla Navarino (55° S), Chile; ii) relacionar este patrón distribucional con las características oceanogrÔficas de la zona de estudio para determinar la respuesta adaptativa de las larvas ante gradientes halinos y termales, y, iii) comparar la abundancia larval de Polygordius en relación a otros taxa meroplanctónicos recolectados durante los cruceros CIMAR 16, 18 y 20. El anÔlisis del neuston de la zona de fiordos y canales del sur de Chile posee diferentes regímenes de aportes de agua dulce (CIMAR 16 - octubre/noviembre de 2010 y 52° a 55° de latitud; CIMAR - 18 junio/julio, 2012 y 44° a 47° de latitud; CIMAR - 20 octubre/noviembre de 2014 y 47° a 50° de latitud), demostrando una relación entre la salinidad superficial y la abundancia de exolarvae. Las exolarvas de Polygordius (longitud promedio=2,9 ± 0,8 mm) fueron el estadio meroneustónico mÔs abundante dentro de la comunidad (54,04% de la abundancia total; 66.228 individuos; N=26 estaciones) y estuvieron representadas en 81% de las estaciones de CIMAR 16 (salinidad promedio=30,7 psu) y dominaron en abundancia sobre larvas de otros poliquetos (10 tipos); en CIMAR 16, 60% de las exolarvas se recolectaron alrededor de la isla Dawson, estrecho de Magallanes. En CIMAR 18 (salinidad promedio=24,28 psu), las exolarvas solo fueron recolectadas a lo largo del canal Moraleda (N=5/31 estaciones). En CIMAR 20 (N=39 estaciones), no fueron recolectadas exolarvas (salinidad promedio=23,26 psu). Las exolarvas de Polygordius poseen estrechos requerimientos de temperatura y salinidad durante su vida pelÔgica, y la agregación de larvas podría ser provocada por umbrales submarinos y efecto isla en la zona de estudio.
