Light pollution can have a variety of effects on aquatic organisms. Despite the fact that amphipods are one model organisms for studying light among macroinvertebrates, data reaction Baikal to artificial lighting limited and contradictory. In this study, we examine response littoral sublittoral amphipod species varying intensity spectral composition. experiments, were exposed warm white at three different ranges (5–15, 20–35, 80–100 lx), as well blue red light. As result, it was found...

Using mitochondrial COI sequencing, we explored the genetic diversity and population structuring of common cockle Cerastoderma edule (Linnaeus, 1758) in Norwegian Barents Seas. Phylogeographic hence evolutionary history C. on Scandinavian Russian coastlines were found to be richer than expected for populations temperate species postglacially colonized seas. A major phylogeographic break at Lofoten Islands separated a group subarctic dominated by distinct star-shaped clade haplotypes from...

Long-term population dynamics of marine invertebrates can be shaped by environmental conditions as well biotic factors, including predation, diseases, interspecific or intraspecific competition. Towards the northern edge species ranges role interactions gradually decreases while impact climate oscillations becomes more important. This study examined long-term changes in abundance, individual growth rates and shell shape characteristics Macoma balthica , one dominant White Sea soft-bottom...

Ophiura sarsii is a common brittle star species across the Arctic and Sub-Arctic regions of Atlantic Pacific oceans. Ophiurasarsii among dominant echinoderms in Barents Sea. We studied genetic diversity O.sarsii by sequencing 548 bp fragment mitochondrial COI gene. demonstrated high Both major mtDNA lineages were present Sea evenly distributed between northern waters around Svalbard archipelago southern part near Murmansk coast Kola Peninsula. regions, other parts range, characterized...

Density distribution of the common infaunal bivalves, Macoma balthica and Cerastoderma edule , was studied along Murman Coast Barents Sea during 2002–2010. In both species, abundance generally higher in West contrast to East Murman. Highest density reaching 1535 ind. m −2 observed Kola Inlet. less abundant; its rarely exceeded 10 all but one site, where 282 registered. Reconstruction across European geographic range revealed that it does not match an ‘abundant-centre’ pattern, having...

Ophiura sarsii is a common brittle star species across Arctic and subarctic regions of Atlantic Pacific oceans. In the Barents Sea O. among dominant echinoderms. We studied genetic diversity by sequencing 548 bp fragment mitochondrial COI gene. O.sarsii demonstrated high in Sea.
