Abstract. The effects of nutrients and pCO2 on zooxanthellate and azooxanthellate colonies of the temperate scleractinian coral Astrangia poculata (Ellis and Solander, 1786) were investigated at two different temperatures (16 °C and 24 °C). Corals exposed to elevated pCO2 tended to have lower relative calcification rates, as estimated from changes in buoyant weights. No nutrient effect was observed. At 16 °C, gamete release was not observed, and no gender differences in calcification rate were observed. However, corals grown at 24 °C spawned repeatedly and male and female corals exhibited two different growth rate patterns. Female corals grown at 24 °C and exposed to CO2 had calcification rates 39 % lower than females grown at ambient CO2, while males showed only a 5 % decline in calcification under elevated CO2. At 16 °C, female and male corals showed similar reductions in calcification rates in response to elevated CO2 (15 % and 19 % respectively). At 24 °C, corals spawned repeatedly, while no spawning was observed at 16 °C. The increased sensitivity of females to elevated pCO2 may reflect a greater investment of energy in reproduction (egg production) relative to males (sperm production). These results suggest that both gender and spawning are important factors in determining the sensitivity of corals to ocean acidification and their inclusion in future research may be critical to predicting how the population structures of marine calcifiers will change in response to ocean acidification.

Echinometra Mathaei

Bioerosi adalah aktivitas berbagai organisme yang menyebabkan terjadinya erosi dan kerusakan misalnya pada kalsium karbonat karang. Aktivitas ini merupakan faktor utama yang mempengaruhi morfologi terumbu karang. Bioerosi dipengaruhi oleh tiga variabel yakni jenis spesies, ukuran dan kelimpahan spesies tersebut. Tujuh puluh lima persen dari bioerosi disebabkan oleh landak laut. Perbedaan pada ukuran dan jenis landak laut memberikan dampak signifikan terhadap daerah yang terjadi bioerosi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji pengaruh ukuran dan jenis landak laut E. mathaei (tipe A dan B) pada komposisi CaCO3 dalam isi usus dan tinja organisme tersebut sebagai agen bioersi. Landak laut yang digunakan diperoleh dari ekosistem karang di pantai Minatogawa, Okinawa-Jepang. Masing-masing tipe landak laut dibedakan berdasarkan ukuran ≥30 mm dan <30mm. Penelitian dilakukan dengan tiga ulangan. Pemeliharaan ini dilakukan di laboratorium dengan analisis komposisi CaCO3 pada tinja dan konten usus. Hasil penelitian membuktikan bahwa komposisi CaCO3 disebabkan karena aktivitas bioerosi harian dari E. mathaei. Landak laut dengan ukuran diameter ≥30 mm terbukti lebih aktif dibandingkan dengan diameter <30mm. Disamping itu landak laut tipe B lebih aktif dibandingkan tipe A dengan ukuran yang sama. Persentase CaCO3 dalam usus selama pemeliharaan di laboratorium adalah 73% dan sisa 27% berupa bahan organik dan anorganik. Bierosion harian E. mathaei tipe A ≥ 30 mm 166,70 mg.hari-1, tipe A <30 mm 77.78 mg.hari-1, tipe B ≥ 30 mm 126,30 mg.hari-1, tipe B <30 mm 116,17 mg.hari-1. Tingkat bioerosion harian E. mathaei dipengaruhi oleh jenis, spesies, kecepatan menggiling, dan ukuran landak laut. Kata kunci: ukuran; Echinometra mathaei; bioerosi; karang Bioerosion is an activity of various organisms such as erosion and destruction of coral calcium carbonate and become a major factor influencing coral reefs morphology. Bioerosion is influenced by three variables: type of species, size of species and abundance. Seventyfive percent of bioerosion caused by sea urchin. Differences on size and type of sea urchin gave a significant impact to the bioerosion area. This study aimed to examine the influence of the size and the type of sea urchin E. mathaei (type A and type B) on the composition of CaCO3 in the gut content and feces as bioersion agent on the reef flat in Minatogawa Coast, Okinawa-Japan. The organisms used were E. mathaei type A and type B with each type distinguished by size ≥ 30 mm and < 30 mm with three replications. The maintenance was carried out at laboratory for 3 days by observing analysis of the composition of CaCO3 on feces and gut content. It indicates that the composition of CaCO3 as daily bioerosion was caused by E. mathaei. The results showed E. mathaei with diameter ≥ 30 mm was more active than those with diameter of < 30mm and type B was more active than type A in each of the same size. Percentage of CaCO3 in the gut during maintenance in the laboratory was 73% and the other 27% consist of organic and inorganic materials. Daily bierosion E. mathaei type A ≥ 30 mm 166.70 mg.day-1 , type A < 30 mm 77.78 mg.day-1 , type B ≥ 30 mm 126.30 mg.day-1 , type B < 30 mm 116.17 mg.day-1. Daily bioerosion rate E. mathaei was influenced by the type, species, speed of grind, and the size of the sea urchin. Keywords: size; Echinometra mathaei; bioerosion; reef flat
