* Spatial and seasonal variations in copepod communities related to turbidity maximum along the Chikugo estuarine gradient in the upper Ariake Bay, Japan 日本有明海上部的沿筑後川海口梯度的最大濁度在空間和季節橈足類群落變異 Md. Shahidul IslamHiroshi UedaMasaru Tanaka 報告者：闕禎儀 I N T R O D U C T I O N marine food chains The estuarine turbidity maximum (ETM) is a ubiquitous feature in dynamic estuarine ecosystems with substantial impacts on copepod abundance and distribution. Rothschild and Osborn, 1988Gasparini et al., 1999Roman et al., 2001Winkler et al., 2003 Turbidity ↑Planktonic predators encounter more prey Hydrodynamic conditions also result in high abundance and biomass of copepods in ETM. MacKenzie et al., 1994MacKenzie and Ki?rboe, 2000Visser et al., 2001David et al., 2005 ETM zones are resided by copepods with low salinity tolerance. Roman et al., 2001; Winkler et al., 2003 ETM zones are characterized by low copepod diversity that is generally unique and different from that of upstream freshwater and downstream communities. Laprise and Dodson, 1994; Roman et al., 2001; Winkler et al., 2003 Estuarine copepod communities are believed to be annually stable but show strong seasonal and spatial dynamics. Temperature, salinity, and food supply are among the most important factors that influence the observed spatial and seasonal patterns in demographic variations of copepods.
