Harmaahylkeen (Halichoerus grypus) ravinto eri osissa pohjoista Itämerta
2013
Itämeren harmaahylkeiden (Halichoerus grypus) yksilömäärien kasvu viime vuosikymmeninä on aiheuttanut ristiriitoja ammattikalastajien ja hylkeiden välille. Hylkeiden on todettu muun muassa vahingoittavan pyydyksiä ja syövän kalastajille arvokasta saalista myös pyydyksistä, kuten lohta (Salmo salar), sekä karkottavan kalaparvia kalastusalueiden ulkopuolelle. Toisaalta harmaahylkeille uhkana on hukkuminen pyydyksiin sekä lisääntynyt häirintä kalastajien ja meriliikenteen toimesta. Näiden ristiriitojen myötä kiinnostus hylkeiden ravinnosta on lisääntynyt. Hylkeiden ravinnonkäyttöä on perinteisesti tutkittu ruoansulatuskanavan sisällöstä. Tämän menetelmän ongelmana on, että saalislajien sulamat…
Sensitivity of different early developmental periods of Baltic herring (Clupea harengus) to water-accommodated fraction of crude oil
2013
The probability for the oil accident to occur at the Gulf of Finland has been increasing last ten years and it is predicted to continue so. The risk is high based on the accident probability and the probable harm caused; some spawning areas of the Baltic herring (Clupea harengus membras) are located in the vicinity of ports and ship fairways with heavy traffic, so any oil spillage there could affect recruitment of this commercially important species. In this study, newly fertilized embryos, the older embryos and the hatched larvae of Baltic herring were exposed to water-accommodated fraction (WAF) made from crude oil. Oil exposure increased most the mortality of the hatched larvae, and larv…
Long-Term Data Reveal the Associations of the Egg Quality With Abiotic Factors and Female Traits in the Baltic Herring Under Variable Environmental C…
2021
In fish, the lipid resources of the female form a link between the environment and progeny, contributing to the contents of the egg yolk. Variation of the environmental conditions is therefore expected to affect the egg quality via maternal pathways, reflecting the female’s response to the environmental factors before spawning. We investigated the content of lipids and thyroid hormones in the ovary and eggs of the Baltic herring during 1988–2019, when salinity of the Baltic Sea first declined and then stabilized to a lower level, and winters varied between severe and mild. The total lipid resources of spawning females decreased by 40–50% during the study, and the ovarian lipid concentration…
