    Rapid increase of benthic structural and functional diversity at the alpha ventus offshore test site (2014)

    Description: The ecological importance of benthic organisms, which provide valuable ecosystem goods and services, necessitates careful research into the effects of offshore windfarms on the marine benthos. This chapter summarizes the results from benthos research activities within the StUKplus programme. The results showed considerable effects of the windfarm alpha ventus on the abundance and biomass of the benthic fauna. The major effect of the introduction of numerous wind turbine constructions into the marine environment was the aggregation and production of marine biota on the submersed structures, resulting in a substantial increase of the structural and functional biodiversity of the benthic system.

    Description: The Pacific oyster, Magallana gigas, is an extremely successful invader with established populations in marine and estuarine habitats almost all over the world. Ecological implications of the introduction of this species to indigenous communities are well documented. However, the processes by which this species successfully establishes in a recipient community is still insufficiently understood. The early detection of the oyster at the island of Helgoland (North Sea) provided the ideal opportunity to investigate whether physical mechanisms, such as wave exposure, influence their successful colonisation. We hypothesized that oyster colonisation benefits from wave-protected conditions. For this purpose, we evaluated colonisation success of M. gigas among wave-protected sites and wave-exposed sites along the island’s pier system. The densities of M. gigas were significantly higher at wave-protected sites than at wave-exposed sites, and the frequency distributions of oyster lengths indicated better growth and higher survival rates in the harbours. This higher colonisation success at wave-protected sites may be explained by the relative retention time of water masses in the harbours, probably resulting in both reduced larval drift and lower energy demands for secretion formation (i.e. firmer binding to the substrate). The fact that the density of M. gigas can vary greatly on small spatial scales depending on exposure corroborates a multiple exposure sampling approach to monitor oyster populations in order to avoid potential overestimations of population sizes in given areas.

    Correction: Incorporating mesopelagic fish into the evaluation of marine protected areas under climate change scenarios (2023)

    Description: The author wants to highlight the important role of mesopelagic fish in the conservation of marine living resources. Therefore, in order to further clarify and focus research point on the conservation of marine living resources, the authors replaced the MPA with the protected areas, and slightly modified several other vague places. In these corrections, most of them are the replacement of the terms. The original article has been corrected. The text “marine protected areas” is replaced with “conservation areas for marine living resources” in the title, Line 2–3. The text "the Marine protected areas" is replaced with "mesopelagic fish" in Line 24. The text "the MPA with protected areas" is replaced in Line 10, Line 23, Line 359, Line 370, Line 508, Line 519, Line 546, Line 547, Line 549, Line 552, Line 554, Line 556, Line 558, Line 562, Line 566, Line 769, Several vague places using protected areas are slightly modified in Line 15, Line 20, Line 21, Line 22, Line 155–156, Line 331–332, Line 356–357, Line 359, Line 361, Line 363, Line 365–366, Line 504, Line 505, Line 506, Line 513, Line 783–784. For replacement of the MPA using protected areas, the Fig. 7 and legend are modified without the change of the numbers. (Figure presented.) The text “marine protected areas” is replaced with “conservation areas for marine living resources” in the title in Supplementary information.
