- 为了确定 MHW 对 epifauna 的影响是否在不同季节和不同息地结构之间有所不同.
主要方法:
- 一个四因素实地实验,使用模仿海藻息地 (草皮和坚持) 的人工基板.
- 模拟的MHW条件 (3-5°C升温) 被应用来评估对动物殖民的影响.
- 季节性变化 (夏季试验) 和基础物种复杂性被操纵来测试相互作用效应.
主要成果:
- 复杂的海藻支的加热板在温暖的夏季试验中显示出更高的动物分类丰富性和丰富性.
- 在温暖而不是寒冷的夏季试验中,动物的丰度通常更大,这表明对高温的反应是积极的.

02:32Osmoregulation in Fishes
49.8K
When cells are placed in a hypotonic (low-salt) fluid, they can swell and burst. Meanwhile, cells in a hypertonic solution—with a higher salt concentration—can shrivel and die. How do fish cells avoid these gruesome fates in hypotonic freshwater or hypertonic seawater environments?

00:53Migration
8.0K
Migration is long-range, seasonal movement from one region or habitat to another. This common strategy, carried out by many different organisms around the world, is an adaptive response that typically corresponds to changes in an organism’s environment, like resource availability or climate. Migrations can involve huge groups of thousands of animals as well as single individuals traveling alone and can range from thousands of kilometers to just a few hundred meters.

01:16Tonicity in Animals
3.2K
Tonicity describes the amount of solute in a solution. The measure of the tonicity of a solution, or the total amount of solutes dissolved in a specific amount of solution, is called its osmolarity. Three terms—hypotonic, isotonic, and hypertonic—are used to relate the osmolarity of a cell to the osmolarity of the extracellular fluid that contains the cells. In a hypotonic solution, such as tap water, the extracellular fluid has a lower concentration of solutes than the fluid inside...
