Trophic Interactions, Habitat Use, and Pollution Loads of Bottlenose Dolphins (Tursiops Truncatus) in the Florida Coastal Everglades, Florida, USA, 2013-2019
Cetaceans can feed at upper trophic levels and occur from freshwater to open-ocean ecosystems. Due to their abundance, mobility, and high metabolic rates, they have the potential to affect the structure and function of ecosystems through both top-down and bottom-up pathways. To better understand what ecological roles they may play in a system, it is important to understand patterns and drivers of their abundance, habitat use, and trophic interactions. I investigated the trophic interactions and pollutant exposure of common bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) of the Florida Coastal Everglades. Based on bulk stable isotope analysis of tissue samples collected using biopsy sampling, it appears that despite their high mobility, bottlenose dolphins restrict their foraging within the habitats where they were sampled. Trophic position and foraging locations affected exposure to pollutants, with high levels of mercury found in dolphins estimated to forage at higher trophic levels and feeding within an inland bay. Mercury levels also varied with age and sex. Dolphins and their prey both contained substantial mercury levels and dolphins’ health could be impacted by this exposure, but the selenium levels we measured might counteract these negative effects.

Environmental DNA reveals fine-scale habitat associations for sedentary and resident marine species across a coastal mosaic of soft and hard-bottom habitats
<p>Accurate knowledge on spatiotemporal distributions of marine species and their association with surrounding habitats is crucial to inform adaptive management actions responding to coastal degradation across the globe. Here, we investigate the potential use of environmental DNA (eDNA) to detect species-habitat associations in a patchy coastal area of the Baltic Sea. We directly compare species-specific qPCR analysis of eDNA with baited remote underwater video systems (BRUVS), two non-invasive methods widely used to monitor marine habitats. Four focal species (cod Gadus morhua, flounder Platichthys flesus, plaice Pleuronectes platessa and goldsinny wrasse Ctenolabrus rupestris) were selected based on contrasting habitat associations (reef- vs. sand-associated species), as well as differential levels of mobility and residency, to investigate whether these factors affected the detection of species-habitat associations from eDNA. To this end, a species-specific qPCR assay for goldsinny wrasse is developed and made available herein. In addition, potential correlations between eDNA signals and abundance counts (MaxN) from videos were assessed. Results from Bayesian multi-level models revealed strong evidence for a sand association for sedentary flounder (98% posterior probability) and a reef association for highly resident wrasse (99% posterior probability) using eDNA, in agreement with BRUVS. However, contrary to BRUVS, eDNA sampling did not detect habitat associations for cod or plaice. We found a positive correlation between eDNA detection and MaxN for wrasse (posterior probability 95%), but not for the remaining species and explanatory power of all relationships was generally limited. Our results indicate that eDNA sampling can detect species-habitat associations on a fine spatial scale, yet this ability likely depends on the mobility and residency of the target organism, with associations for sedentary or resident species most likely to be detected. Combined sampling with conventional non-invasive methods is advised to improve detection of habitat associations for mobile and transient species, or for species with low eDNA concentrations. </p>

Figure 2 in Carbon primary sources and estuarine habitat use by two congeneric ariid catfishes in a subtropical coastal lagoon
Figure 2. Carbon isotope ratios (d13C) and total length (TL, mm) of individuals of Genidens genidens (closed circles) and Genidens barbus (open circles) collected in the interface between the estuarine and freshwater zones of Patos Lagoon in present study. DISCUSSION According to the model of the life cycle suggested by ARAúJO (1988), G. barbus move between freshwater to the estuary during their first year of life. After reaching sexual maturity, adults migrate to the ocean, returning to freshwater to spawn. Our work with stable isotopes corroborates the general movement pattern proposed in this model by providing evidence that the primary producers at the estuary are an important source of carbon for juveniles of G. barbus during the initial phase of their development. There is no current model describing the life cycle of G. genidens at the Patos Lagoon. ARAúJO (1988) mentioned that this species remains in the upper limit of the estuarine zone or in the limnetic portion of the lagoon and that its juveniles are occasionally found in the estuary. Based on fish sampling restricted to the mixohaline zone of the Patos Lagoon, some authors classified this species as estuarine resident (CHAO et al. 1985, ARAúJO 1988). However, VIEIRA et al. (2010) demonstrated that G. genidens occurs from the estuary to the uppermost northern portion of the lagoon, which is located ~180 km from the lagoon's connection with the sea, and can remain year round at freshwater. Our work provides new evidence that this catfish species derives energy from the estuarine and freshwater zones of
