  33. <meta content="Aim A number of terrestrial invertebrates are known to have distributions limited to the
  34. immediate coastal zone, but the factors controlling their distributions are not well understood.
  35. This study was planned to correlate the distribution of a coastal terrestrial
  36. amphipod, Austrotroides maritimus Friend 1987, which is only found within 100 m of
  37. the high tide mark, with soil characteristics and salt deposition.
  38. Location South Cape Rivulet Bay on the south coast of Tasmania (146 degrees 47' E, 43 degrees 36' S).
  39. Methods Abundance of the amphipods was examined at four sites c. 200 m apart that
  40. varied in their exposure to onshore westerly winds. At each site four replicate transect
  41. lines were established 3 m apart, with pitfall traps set at 2-m intervals. The lines were at
  42. right angles to the high water mark and extended beyond the inland limit of A. maritimus.
  43. Amphipods were trapped at three times of the year, in winter, spring and summer
  44. (1993-94), and the sodium content, organic content and moisture content of the soil at
  45. each trap site were measured. The sodium content of rain falling on the transects, was
  46. also measured, and lysimeters were used to assess the concentration of sodium in water
  47. penetrating the soil profile.
  48. Results The inland penetration of A. maritimus varied between 18 and 44 m from the
  49. seaward edge of woody terrestrial vegetation (itself <10 mhorizontally from the high tide
  50. mark). Inland penetration increased from west to east around the bay, following an
  51. apparent gradient of increased exposure to onshore winds. At the most easterly and
  52. apparently most exposed site, however, the species penetrated only 18 m, but this site
  53. differed markedly from the others in its topography, caused by erosion of the dunes, with an
  54. 8-m cliff at its seaward end. The soils at this site were also unusually clayey and waterlogged.
  55. Amphipod abundance did not correlate strongly with any of the soil parameters.
  56. The salt content of rainfall generally declined inland, as did the concentration of lysimeter
  57. leachate, but the inland declines were not all smooth, and both rainfall and lysimeter
  58. leachate concentration showed some tendency to increase inland at the most sheltered site.
  59. Main conclusions Austrotroides maritimus is strongly restricted to the immediate
  60. coastal zone. The extent of its inland penetration correlates with exposure to onshore
  61. winds, and circumstantial evidence supports the hypothesis that this may be due to
  62. differences in the amount of salts deposited." name="eprints.abstract" />

  335. immediate coastal zone, but the factors controlling their distributions are not well understood.&#13;
  336. This study was planned to correlate the distribution of a coastal terrestrial&#13;
  337. amphipod, Austrotroides maritimus Friend 1987, which is only found within 100 m of&#13;
  338. the high tide mark, with soil characteristics and salt deposition.&#13;
  339. Location South Cape Rivulet Bay on the south coast of Tasmania (146 degrees 47' E, 43 degrees 36' S).&#13;
  340. Methods Abundance of the amphipods was examined at four sites c. 200 m apart that&#13;
  341. varied in their exposure to onshore westerly winds. At each site four replicate transect&#13;
  342. lines were established 3 m apart, with pitfall traps set at 2-m intervals. The lines were at&#13;
  343. right angles to the high water mark and extended beyond the inland limit of A. maritimus.&#13;
  344. Amphipods were trapped at three times of the year, in winter, spring and summer&#13;
  345. (1993-94), and the sodium content, organic content and moisture content of the soil at&#13;
  346. each trap site were measured. The sodium content of rain falling on the transects, was&#13;
  347. also measured, and lysimeters were used to assess the concentration of sodium in water&#13;
  348. penetrating the soil profile.&#13;
  349. Results The inland penetration of A. maritimus varied between 18 and 44 m from the&#13;
  350. seaward edge of woody terrestrial vegetation (itself &lt;10 mhorizontally from the high tide&#13;
  351. mark). Inland penetration increased from west to east around the bay, following an&#13;
  352. apparent gradient of increased exposure to onshore winds. At the most easterly and&#13;
  353. apparently most exposed site, however, the species penetrated only 18 m, but this site&#13;
  354. differed markedly from the others in its topography, caused by erosion of the dunes, with an&#13;
  355. 8-m cliff at its seaward end. The soils at this site were also unusually clayey and waterlogged.&#13;
  356. Amphipod abundance did not correlate strongly with any of the soil parameters.&#13;
  357. The salt content of rainfall generally declined inland, as did the concentration of lysimeter&#13;
  358. leachate, but the inland declines were not all smooth, and both rainfall and lysimeter&#13;
  359. leachate concentration showed some tendency to increase inland at the most sheltered site.&#13;
  360. Main conclusions Austrotroides maritimus is strongly restricted to the immediate&#13;
  361. coastal zone. The extent of its inland penetration correlates with exposure to onshore&#13;
  362. winds, and circumstantial evidence supports the hypothesis that this may be due to&#13;
  363. differences in the amount of salts deposited.</p></div><table style="margin-bottom: 1em" cellpadding="3" class="not_ep_block" border="0"><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Item Type:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">Article</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Additional Information:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">The definitive version is available at www.blackwell-synergy.com</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Keywords:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">Amphipods, Talitridae, landhoppers, distribution, salt spray, onshore wind.</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Subjects:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/270703.html">270000 Biological Sciences &gt; 270700 Ecology and Evolution &gt; 270703 Terrestrial Ecology</a><br /><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/270709.html">270000 Biological Sciences &gt; 270700 Ecology and Evolution &gt; 270709 Biogeography</a></td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">ID Code:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">1484</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Deposited By:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><span class="ep_name_citation"><span class="person_name">A/Prof Alastair Richardson</span></span></td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Deposited On:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">27 Jul 2007</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Last Modified:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">09 Jan 2008 02:30</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">ePrint Statistics:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><a target="ePrintStats" href="/es/index.php?action=show_detail_eprint;id=1484;">View statistics for this ePrint</a></td></tr></table><p align="right">Repository Staff Only: <a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/cgi/users/home?screen=EPrint::View&amp;eprintid=1484">item control page</a></p>
