SUMMARY To understand possible factors controlling transmission of trematode larvae between first and second intermediate hosts we examined the impact ambient fauna on parasite in a marine intertidal parasite-host association. Cockle ( Cerastoderma edule ) kept together with selected co-occurring macrozoobenthic species mesocosms acquired lower load compared to cockles alone, when targeted by cercariae Himasthla elongata . The reduction differed 7 tested was 35 91%. Three different types...

We describe the digenean fauna of one dominant intertidal hosts, common cockle Cerastoderma edule , in terms biomass, off north-eastern Atlantic shores. Using published and unpublished literature we have prepared an identification key provide up-date large-scale distributional patterns species cockle. At least sixteen species, belonging to seven families, use cockles as intermediate host. Among these two utilize first host only, whereas both second The remaining eleven their Water birds fish...
Animal studies have indicated that increased nitric oxide (NO) synthesis plays a significant role in the renal adaptation to sodium intake. To investigate of NO during intake humans, we studied effect acute, systemic injection N G -monomethyl-l-arginine (l-NMMA) on hemodynamics [glomerular filtration rate and plasma flow (GFR RPF, respectively)], urinary excretion (FE Na ), [mean arterial blood pressure heart (MAP HR)], levels several vasoactive hormones 12 healthy subjects high (250...
A Corophium-bed characterized by a mosaic of emerged areas and tidal pools during low water was established on an intertidal flat in the southern part Danish Wadden Sea. In spring 1990, plateaux harboured relatively high densities amphipod Corophium volutator , whereas amphipods were almost absent pools. Following parasite-induced mass-mortality population summer bed subjected to sediment erosion. The heterogeneous plateau-pool structure disappeared, accompanied increased median particle...
Tactile-searching dunlins Calidris alpina fed selectively in small-scale depressions on an intertidal mudflat the Danish Wadden Sea.This choice of microhabitat could be related to higher sediment penetrabhty compared with surrounding flats, allowing peck depth doubled.A model is presented describing probability detecting predominant prey item Hydrobia ulvae as a function depth.The predicts that increased would improve foraging success 4-fold.It suggested presence depression and accompanying...
Abstract The paper lists species found on the inside and outside of snail shells inhabited by Pagurus bernhardus from Øresund Frederikshavn area, Denmark, Gullmarfjord, Sweden. A number are exclusively hermit crab shells.

An amensalistic interaction between the common cockle Cerastoderma edule (L.) and amphipod Corophium volutator (Pallas) is reported.C. may attain very high densities in softbottom localities.In an intertidal flat Danish Wadden Sea (1 yr cockles) of about 3500 ind m-2 were observed.The area fraction occupied by cockles gives a better indication their potential impact on coexisting species.Thus, population outer part was found to cover 30 40 % area.Previous observations had indicated that...
