The synecology of dense assemblages of the deposit-feeding Polychaete, Axiothella rubrocincta (Maldanidae)

Weinberg, James Robert 01 January 1978 (has links)
Interspecific interactions have been shown to play critical roles in determining the realized niches of species in marine rocky intertidal (ie Connell 1961, Paine 1966,, Dayton 1971) and terrestrial (i.e~ Harper 1969, Pianka 1973, Cody 1974) communities. In contrast, such interactions have not been clearly demonstrated as determinants of the distribution and abundance of marine intertidal soft-substrate organisms (however, see Levinton 1977). There are great physical differences between the rocky and mud-sandflat intertidal habitats, Some of these are wave exposure, sediment size (boulders to silts), penetrability and organic content of the substrate, frequency of log damage, and exposure to sunlight. Considering these physical differences and the fact that soft-substrate environments often support diverse communities, it is interesting to assess the role of biological interactions in' structuring these intertidal communities. Previous work on this system primarily consists of descriptions of animal-sediment · relationships and of food partitioning (i.e~ Sanders et al.. 1962, Mangum 1964, Reid and Reid 1968, Johnson 1971, Rhoads and Young 1971, Young and Rhoads 1971, Fenchel et al, 1975, Warren 1977). The role of interspecific interactions in establishing and maintaining infaunal distribution patterns on a sandflat in northern California is reported here.

Studies on the ecological distribution of the genus Tegula at Bodega Bay, California

Breed, Allen Emmert 01 January 1950 (has links)
This paper is primarily a study of the factors contributing to the distribution of Tegula funebralis and Tegula brunnea in the vicinity of Bodega Bay, California. The two species seldom appear extensively together in the same zone. Tegula brunnea is found on the exposed outer coast of Tomales Point, but not in the immediate zone of Tegula funebralis. Tegula funebralis is found at some points north of Dillon Beach, but it is rarely in the presence of abundant Tegula brunnea. The writer hopes that his efforts may lay a basis for more ecological studies of this genera on the Pacific Coast.

Estabilización proteica de vinos blancos mediante adsorción en columnas de relleno

Pachova, Veselina Petrova 07 October 2002 (has links)
La estabilización proteica del vino blanco es una etapa importante en su elaboración, y tiene una relación muy estrecha con la comercialización del producto final. Los métodos tradicionales utilizados en la mayoría de las bodegas consisten en operaciones discontinuas con adición de material adsorbente, que requieren mucha mano de obra, hay pérdida de producto y se generan residuos que tienen un impacto ambiental elevado.En este trabajo se ha estudiado la alternativa de utilizar materiales adsorbentes que permitan disminuir o eliminar las desventajas existentes. Después de una revisión bibliográfica detallada se eligieron el óxido de zirconio y el óxido de aluminio, en diferentes granulometrías y grados de acidez, para estudiar la posibilidad de transformar el proceso de estabilización proteica tradicional discontinuo, en un proceso continuo mediante adsorción con óxidos metálicos empacados en una columna. Los resultados obtenidos muestran que dicha transformación es posible, y que el óxido de zirconio es un adsorbente que muestra una selectividad con las fracciones proteicas del vino, se puede regenerar, se puede empacar en una columna sin causar problemas técnicos y no modifica las características fisicoquímicas del vino tratado, cumpliéndose así todos los requisitos buscados, obteniendo finalmente un vino blanco estabilizado. / Wine is one of the most popular low-alcohol drinks, thus many research projects have focused on making wine easier to produce or on improving the final product. The macromolecules in wine can form precipitates or cause turbidity, which affects its stability. The white wine protein stabilization is an important stage in its elaboration, and has a very narrow relationship with the commercialization of the product. The colloidal fractions of the wine, such as proteins and polysaccharides, have a considerable influence on some of the basic operations (for example, filtration, clarification, and cold stabilization).There are a lot of nonselective models for reducing the protein content in wine. The traditional methods used in most of the cellars consist on discontinuous operations with addition of adsorbent materials that require a lot of manpower, there is loss of product and residuals are generated that have a high environmental impact. In this work has been studied to use alternative adsorbent materials, like metal oxides, that allow to diminish or to eliminate the existent disadvantages. Two types of adsorbent material were used: zirconium and alumina. The used materials were in different particle size and acidity degrees.The obtained results show that these materials can be used in packed bed. The protein fractions were removed from a white wine in a packed bed of ZrO2 and showed an improvement in the protein stability. The affinity of the ZrO2 depended on the molecular weight of the wine protein fraction. The physicochemical properties of the wine were not modified after the treatment. Finally, the zirconium oxide in the both form can be regenerated.

Reproductive ecology of the California sea mussel, Mytilus californianus Conrad

Bartlett, Bruce Robert 01 January 1972 (has links)
This study deals with the reproductive ecology and larval development of Mytilus californianus. Mytilus californianus is the common mussel found along the more exposed west coast of North America from the Aleutian Islands south Isla Socorro, Mexico (Soot-Ryen, 1955) and was chosen because it is an important species in rocky intertidal communities (being the most abundant if not the most conspicuous) and forms the basis for diverse associations of numerous other species. The reproductive cycle, larval development to settlement, comparisons of reproduction in high and low populations and field observations on larval settlement are described.

Population ecology of the littoral fringe gastropod Littorina planaxis in Northern California

Schmitt, Russell James 01 January 1974 (has links) (PDF)
Life history patterns of individual organisms are the result of natural selection and should be correlated with particular physical and biological characteristics of habitats in which they live. The littoral fringe is known to be the most severe physical habitat in the intertidal zone, and it is expected that organisms in it should have population characteristics associated with selective response to physical adversity rather than biological interaction. Ecological studies of populations of Littorina planaxis were made in the Dillon Beach and Bodega Head areas. The study localities differed principally in extent of wave exposure rather than geographical location.
