Seminar Announcement
“Distribution of larval fish in the Eastern Tropical North Pacific Oxygen Minimum Zone”
Juan Gutierrez Bravo
Graduate Student
SMAST at UMassD
Wednesday, April 12, 2023
12:30 pm – 1:30 pm
SMAST East, Rooms 101/102
And via Zoom
Abstract:
The three-dimensional distribution of fish larvae and juveniles, in relation to environmental structure and dissolved oxygen gradients, was analyzed from eight key locations in the Eastern Tropical North Pacific Oxygen Minimum Zone (OMZ). The oxic layer depth (>100 umol kg-1) was <50 m in the Costa Rica Dome, ~80 m in the warm pool off Guatemala and Mexico, and ~120 m in two anticyclonic eddies crossed during sampling. The upper-lower boundaries of the OMZ anoxic core (<2 umol kg-1) expanded from 350-500 m off Costa Rica to 100-750 m off central Mexico, displacing the hypoxic layer (10-100 umol kg-1). Larval fish stages were distinctly distributed. Preflexion and flexion stages were restricted to the oxic layer. Postflexion and transformation stages were abundant in the oxic layer but also present in deeper layers, including the anoxic core. Juveniles of meso-bathypelagic species were present along the water column but most abundant below the anoxic core, showing a physiological capacity to cross anoxic waters. Dominant species distribution shows that epipelagic species are restricted to the oxic layer through their development, while meso-bathypelagic species like Diogenichthys laternatus and Cyclothone spp. cross the core to deep hypoxic waters as transformation larvae and juveniles. Thus, expanding OMZs could further restrict the habitat of epipelagic species, while also affecting the displacement of meso-bathypelagic species. We suggest that changes from hypoxic to anoxic conditions could greatly affect the life cycles of keystone species in the world’s OMZs.

“Utilizing a Model to Assist in Establishing a Closed Safety Zone adjacent to a Wastewater Treatment Plant for Public Health Protection in compliance with the
National Shellfish Sanitation Program”
Jeff Kennedy
Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries
Wednesday, April 12, 2023
2:30 pm to 3:30 pm
SMAST East 101-102
And via Zoom
Abstract:
The National Shellfish Sanitation Program (NSSP) was established to ensure the sanitary harvest, handling, and processing of bivalve molluscan shellfish in the US. The sanitary classification of shellfish growing waters is the primary focus of the Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries Shellfish Program. A critical aspect of the NSSP is the sanitary classification of waters adjacent to wastewater treatment plants. These closed safety zones classified as Prohibited to shellfishing are required around major point-source outfalls. Typically, those zones have been set using simple dilution calculations, or when available, hydrographic dye studies have been employed. The utilization of a model to establish closed safety zone limits promises to protect public health with more extensive geographic coverage, using a wider range of environmental data while expediting the process coast wide.
Bio:
Jeff Kennedy has been the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries (DMF) Shellfish Sanitation, Management and Technical Assistance Program Manager since 2020 and previously the North Shore Shellfish Regional Supervisor and Shellfish Purification Plant Manager. He is currently the DMF voting delegate at the Interstate Shellfish Sanitation Conference, having served on numerous committees since 2005, including Biotoxin, Depuration, Growing Area Classification, Male Specific Coliphage, Overboard Discharge, Shellfish Restoration, Shellfish Cleansing Studies, and Wet Storage - chairing several, and is a current Task Force member at the conference.
