New record, based on a video of a specimen taken east of Albatross Passage, southwestern Kavieng District, at 3–57 m depth, St. KR 186, in 2014 (identified by Barry C. Russell); a specimen observed at Nemto Island, New Hanover, 4–15 m depth, St. T 23, on 7 Nov. 2006, by Gerald R. Allen. Distribution and habitat. New Ireland: 1, 2.—General distribution: Eastern Indonesia east to Samoa, north to southern Japan, south to northern Australia. Found in lagoons and seaward reef slopes, 1–46 m depth.

Extreme original data yield extreme decline effects
No full textClements et al. respond to Munday’s claim that his “reanalysis shows there is not an extreme decline effect in fish ocean acidification studies”. They contend that extreme data reported in early studies authored by Dixson and Munday indeed result in an “extreme” decline effect in this field, and conclude that the decline effect is primarily driven by papers by particular authors
Open access articles receive more citations in hybrid marine ecology journals
No full textThe accumulation of evidence that open access publishing can increase citation rates highlights one benefit of universal accessibility to scholarly works. However, studies investigating the effect of open access publishing on citations are typically conducted across a wide variety of journals and disciplines, introducing a number of potential issues and limiting their utility for specific disciplines. Here, I used three primary marine ecology journals with an open access option as a “microcosm” of scientific publishing to determine whether or not open access articles received more citations than non-open access articles during the same time frame, controlling for self-citations, article type, and journal impact factor. I also tested for the effects of time since publication and the number of authors. Citations were positively correlated with time since publication and differed across the three journals. In addition, open access articles received significantly more citations than non-open access articles. Self-citations increased with author number and were affected by a complex interaction between open access, journal, and time since publication. This study demonstrates that open access articles receive more citations in hybrid marine ecology journals, although the causal factors driving this trend are unknown

Error bound strategies for a new hull plate expansion procedure
No full textIncludes b&w illus.; bibliographic referencesAn improved version of a recently developed (Clements and Leon, 1986) isometric mapping procedure is presented. This algorithm employs a variable step differential equation solver (ODES) in conjunction with an adaptive quadrature routine (AQR). Criteria for choosing appropriate error tolerances for the numerical implementation of the algorithm are presented. An application is briefly discussed

Seawater carbonate chemistry and individual time to open of blue mussels (Mytilus edulis * trossulus)
No full textStartle response behaviours are important in predator avoidance and escape for a wide array of animals. For many marine invertebrates, however, startle response behaviours are understudied, and the effects of global change stressors on these responses are unknown. We exposed two size classes of blue mussels (Mytilus edulis * trossulus) to different combinations of temperature (15 and 19 °C) and pH (8.2 and 7.5 pHT) for 3 months and subsequently measured individual time to open following a tactile predator cue (i.e. startle response time) over a series of four consecutive trials. Time to open was highly repeatable in the short term and decreased linearly across the four trials. Individuals from the larger size class had a shorter time to open than their smaller-sized counterparts. High temperature increased time to open compared to low temperature, while pH had no effect. These results suggest that bivalve time to open is repeatable, related to relative vulnerability to predation and affected by temperature. Given that increased closure times impact feeding and respiration, the effect of temperature on closure duration may play a role in the sensitivity to ocean warming in this species and contribute to ecosystem level effects
