Effects of sewage effluent and shorebird exclusion on intertidal infaunal assemblages
Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (DEWLP), Victorian Government
This experiment tested the effects of liquid effluents on infauna assemblages in the presence and absence of shorebirds. Small plots of sediment (70cm x 50cm) were dosed with... -
Patterns of establishment and subsequent change in the structure of a marine...
College of Marine And Environmental Sciences (CMES), James Cook University (JCU)
Artificial substrata were used to investigate the patterns of establishment and change in the structure of a subtidal, marine epifaunal community at Portsea, Victoria from... -
Effects of introduced sessile invertebrates: removal experiments.
School of BioSciences, The University of Melbourne
Three removal experiments were conducted to test the effects of the introduced species, Bugula neritina, Ascidiella aspersa and Botryllus schlosseri on sessile invertebrate... -
Patterns of recruitment of epifaunal species at Portsea, Victoria.
College of Marine And Environmental Sciences (CMES), James Cook University (JCU)
This study investigated the temporal and spatial patterns of recruitment of epifaunal species at Portsea. Recruitment panels were immersed at depths of 1 - 2.2 metres for 10... -
Effects of predation by fishes on the epifaunal community at Portsea, Victoria.
College of Marine And Environmental Sciences (CMES), James Cook University (JCU)
Exclusions were attached to artificial substrata to investigate the relative effects of predation on the development of epifaunal communities at Portsea. Exclusions were black... -
Patterns of development in the epifaunal community at Portsea, Victoria.
College of Marine And Environmental Sciences (CMES), James Cook University (JCU)
This experiment examined the temporal changes in species composition and diversity of a developing epifaunal community on artificial substrata at Portsea. The substrata used... -
Ecological effects of introduced sessile marine invertebrates.
School of BioSciences, The University of Melbourne
Manipulative field experiments were used to investigate the effects of the ascidians Botryllus schlosseri and Ascidiella aspersa and the bryozoan Bugula neritina on sessile... -
Effects of introduced species on the recruitment of sessile invertebrates.
School of BioSciences, The University of Melbourne
This experiment was conducted to determine if an established Botryllus schlosseri colony affected the recruitment of sessile invertebrates. Small perspex plates that had been in... -
A collation of environmental datasets used in developing and testing...
Department of Civil Engineering, Monash University
The improvement of forecasting water temperature in a coastal embayment through the assimilation of satellite sea surface temperature (SST) was investigated. Port Phillip Bay in... -
Assimilation of Satellite Observations into Coastal Biogeochemical Models
Department of Civil Engineering, Monash University
This thesis investigates the improvement of forecasting water temperature in a coastal embayment through the assimilation of satellite sea surface temperature (SST). Port... -
Effects of sewage effluent on 'pulse' infaunal assemblages.
Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (DEWLP), Victorian Government
This experiment tested the effects of secondary treated sewage effluent on infauna assemblages that were taken from a 'reference' site immediately after a large dump of... -
Responses of Bugula neritina, an arborescent bryozoan, to the removal of...
School of BioSciences, The University of Melbourne
For colonial organisms physical damage or predation can result in the loss of part of the colony. Although the colony may survive, the loss of part of the colony may alter... -
Comparing the effects of an introduced and native species of bryozoan
School of BioSciences, The University of Melbourne
An experiment was conducted to compare the effects of the introduced bryozoan, Bugula neritina, and the native bryozoan, Bugula dentata, on sessile invertebrate assemblages.... -
Effects of sewage effluent on 'reference' infaunal assemblages.
Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (DEWLP), Victorian Government
This experiment tested the effects of secondary treated sewage effluent on infauna assemblages that were collected 2km from a sewage outfall ('reference' assemblage). Twelve... -
Effects of sewage effluent on 'outfall' infaunal assemblages.
Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (DEWLP), Victorian Government
This experiment tested the effects of secondary treated sewage effluent on infaunal assemblages that were collected 50m from a sewage outfall ('outfall' assemblage). Twelve... -
Competitive interactions in the epifaunal community at Portsea, Victoria.
College of Marine And Environmental Sciences (CMES), James Cook University (JCU)
The resource provides information on the rates of growth, competitive ability and life spans of species in the epifaunal community at Portsea. Estimates of rates of growth for... -
Responses of Bugula neritina, an arborescent bryozoan to the removal of...
School of BioSciences, The University of Melbourne
In colonial organisms, physical damage or predation can result in the loss of part of the colony. Although the colony may survive, the loss of part of the colony may alter...
