Penelitian tentang indeks keanekaragaman hayati ikan demersal telah dilakukan pada periode tahun 2001 sampai dengan 2006 menggunakan sarana kapal riset KM. Mutiara, KM. Bawal Putih I, dan KM. Mandidihang 02. Data spesies ikan demersal dikumpulkan dari hasil pengambilan contoh penangkapan menggunakan alat tangkap jaring pukat dasar dengan metode sapuan area. Pengambilan contoh dilakukan di sub lahan tepian Laut Arafura (sekitar daerah Mappi sampai dengan Dolak) dan sub lahan tengah Laut Arafura (sekitar Kepulauan Aru). Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa status kekayaan jenis ikan demersal sampai dengan tahun 2006 memiliki 149 spesies yang tergolong dalam 71 famili. Ikan-ikan yang cenderung memiliki jumlah individu terbanyak adalah kelompok famili ikan petek (Leiognathidae), gerot-gerot (Pomadasyidae), dan gulamah (Scianidae). Tingkat keanekaragaman jenis ikan demersal di perairan Arafura termasuk dalam kategori sedang. Kondisi komunitas bersifat labil dan cenderung mengalami penurunan. Status keanekaragaman hayati sampai dengan tahun 2006 memiliki indeks keanekaragaman jenis Shanon-Wiener (H’) berkisar 2,22 sampai dengan 2,79; indeks kekayaan jenis Margalef (R1 ) berkisar 4,84 sampai dengan 11,23; indeks keragaman Hill number (N1) berkisar 9,2 sampai dengan 16,3 dan indeks kemerataan jenis Pielou (E) berkisar 0,54 sampai dengan 0,56. Study on biodiversity indices of demersal fish was conducted in the period of 2001 until 2006 by using research vessel MV. MUTIARA, MV. BAWAL PUTIH I, and MV. MANDIDIHANG 02. Species data of demersal fish were collected from fishing samples by using bottom trawl with swept area method. Sampling location in the waters shore of Arafura Sea with sub area Mappi to Dolak and middle area of Arafura Sea (around of Aru Island). Result indicates that status of richness species of demersal fish till year 2006 of 149 species belongging to 71 families were recorded. Dominant families were Leiognathidae, Pomadasyidae, and Scianidae. From diversity analysis it also indicates that species diversity index in the Arafura Sea was at mid level. Condition of fish community was likely labile and the trend of it was decreasing. Index of biodiversity up to 2006 Shanon-Wiener (H’) was 2.22 until 2.79; species richness indices of Margalef (R1 ) were 4.84 until 1.23, diversity number Hill (N1) 9.2 until 16.3, and evenness indices of Pielou (E 1) were 0.54 until 0.56.

The Odra River, 55.2 kmof its length, is winding through the Poodří Protected Landscape Area, which has total area of 81,5 km<sup>2</sup>. More than 80% of its stream has retained the natural character of its riverbed and the hydrological regime with regular floods. Ichthyologic research was carried out in the period 1997–2001. It took place in 7 localities comprising 3 localities situated in main tributaries and 4 localities of former river arms. Gill nets and electrofishing were used for the research on limnetic biotopes. A total of 22 fish species in the streams (Odra, Lubina, Ondřejnice, and Bílovka Rivers) and 4 other species in stagnant water bodies were found. Out of all identified species, Oncorhynchus mykiss, Pseudorasbora parva, and Carassius auratus are not native species. Anglers identified further 7 species in their catches. The studied river sections are inhabited by the Barbus – Chondrostoma fish community. The highest biomass belongs to the most frequent species Leuciscus cephalus, Rutilus rutilus, and Barbus barbus. Total abundance in the individual localities ranged from 2 416 to 20 392 fishes/ha and total biomass was in the range from 174 to 788.8 kg/ha. The species diversity index H’ of ichthyocenoses fluctuated between 2.238 to 3.108 in the area. There were 4–8 species in low numbers in 4 searched pools. The biomass was also low and the diversity index H’ ranged from 1.390 to 1.737.

Anura includes frogs and toads, playing an important role as ecosystem quality bioindicators, as well as insect population control. Anura is very sensitive to changes in the environment, since its egg stadium. Disruption to its natural habitat, can threaten Anura's survival. This research is done in the Nature reserve area and Telaga Warna Natural Nature Park. Observations using the Visual Encounter Survey (VES) method. Analyses conducted include the calculation of the species diversity index of Shannon-Wienner, the frequency of species meetings, and the density of species. The results of the research gained 11 species of Anura from 5 families, namely Megophryidae, Microhylidae, Ranidae, Dicroglossidae, and Rhacoporidae. The level of diversity of Anura species in the research site is moderate (H ' = 0.152). Density ranged from 0.07 to 0.24 tails/m2, and the highest density is demonstrated by the Rhacophorus margaritifer. The frequency of meetings at a sampling location ranges from 0.01 to 3.6%, with the highest frequency being Rana chalconota. Generally, the quality of the ecosystem of Telaga Warna is good, especially in the area of Gayung Swamp

Natural gradient systems can be used to examine the vulnerability of deep-sea communities to climate change. The Gulf of California presents an ideal system for examining relationships between faunal patterns and environmental conditions of deep-sea communities because deep-sea conditions change from warm and oxygen-rich in the north to cold and severely hypoxic in the south. The Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI) remotely operated vehicle (ROV) ‘Doc Ricketts’ was used to conduct seafloor video transects at depths of ~200-1400 m in the northern, central, and southern Gulf. The community composition, density, and diversity of demersal fish assemblages were compared to environmental conditions. We tested the hypothesis that climate-relevant variables (temperature, oxygen, and primary production) have more explanatory power than static variables (latitude, depth, and benthic substrate) in explaining variation in fish community structure. Temperature best explained variance in density, while oxygen best explained variance in diversity and community composition. Both density and diversity declined with decreasing oxygen, but diversity declined at a higher oxygen threshold (~7 µmol kg-1). Remarkably, high-density fish communities were observed living under suboxic conditions (<5 µmol kg-1). Using an Earth systems global climate model forced under an RCP8.5 scenario, we found that by 2081-2100, the entire Gulf of California seafloor is expected to experience a mean temperature increase of 1.08 ± 1.07°C and modest deoxygenation. The projected changes in temperature and oxygen are expected to be accompanied by reduced diversity and related changes in deep-sea demersal fish communities.

<p>Anthropogenic impact on the population of ground beetles leads to a change in their numbers, structure of dominance, density, species composition, spectrum of life forms. This makes the beetles Carabidae a convenient and informative bioindicator of the ecological state of biocenoses. The material for this work was the Carabidae collections conducted in June-August 2016-2017 in the park zone of different regions of Barnaul, differing in location, area, hydrological regime, vegetation cover, purpose and anthropogenic load. When processing the material, the quantitative, species and generic composition of the carabidae was determined, calculations were made for such indicators as the Berger-Parker dominance index, the Shannon species diversity index (Hs), and the Jacquard species similarity index. The fauna (Coleoptera, Carabidae) of the park zone of Barnaul is represented by 55 species belonging to 20 genera. The dominant group is represented by species belonging to steppe, forest and polyzonal groups. Forest-steppe species of ground beetles as dominants have not been identified in any of the investigated territories. The greatest variety of ecological groups was noted on the territory of the Yubileyny рark, which is explained by the presence of zones with various microclimatic conditions, the presence of a birch grove that flows through the park with the Pivovarka River, and a wide log in the park. Registered species belong to eight groups of life forms belonging to two classes - zoophagous and myxophytophagous. On the numerical and species abundance, zoophages predominate. The spectrum of life forms corresponds to the zonal spectrum characteristic of the forest-steppe zone.</p><p> </p>

AbstractA total of 176 homestead forests at three altitudes in the Chittagong Hill Tracts, Bangladesh were randomly surveyed to estimate carbon (C) stocks and how stand structure affects the biomass C. All woody vegetations were measured, and litter and soil (0–30 cm depth) were sampled. The tree biomass C stock in the top two altitude forests was up to 37–48% higher than in low altitude, owing to significantly higher tree density and species diversity. An increase in species diversity index by one unit increased the biomass stock by 23 Mg C ha−1. The C stock of litterfall in low altitude forests was 22–28% higher than in the top two altitude due to the deposition of litters downslope and deliberate use of mulch for soil improvement and conservation, resulting in up to 5% higher total soil C. The topsoil C was 10–25% higher than the deeper soil, depending on the altitude. The forest stored 89 Mg C ha−1, indicating a potential for C sequestration in trees outside forest. This study would help policymakers to strengthen the recognition of small-scale forests for mitigation in REDD + (reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation, the role of conservation, sustainable management of forests, and enhancement of forest carbon stocks) and support owners through C credits from sustainably managed forests.

Abstract Greenstreet, S. P. R., Fraser, H. M., Rogers, S. I., Trenkel, V. M., Simpson, S. D., and Pinnegar, J. K. 2012. Redundancy in metrics describing the composition, structure, and functioning of the North Sea demersal fish community. – ICES Journal of Marine Science, 69: 8–22. Broader ecosystem management objectives for North Sea demersal fish currently focus on restoring community size structure. However, most policy drivers explicitly concentrate on restoring and conserving biodiversity, and it has not yet been established that simply restoring demersal fish size composition will be sufficient to reverse declines in biodiversity and ensure a generally healthy community. If different aspects of community composition, structure, and function vary independently, then to monitor all aspects of community general health will require application of a suite of metrics. This assumes low redundancy among the metrics used in any such suite and implies that addressing biodiversity issues specifically will require explicit management objectives for particular biodiversity metrics. This issue of metric redundancy is addressed, and 15 metrics covering five main attributes of community composition, structure, and function are applied to groundfish survey data. Factor analysis suggested a new interpretation of the metric information and indicated that a minimum suite of seven metrics was necessary to ensure that all changes in the general health of the North Sea demersal fish community were monitored properly. Covariance among size-based and species-diversity metrics was low, implying that restoration of community size structure would not necessarily reverse declines in species diversity.

It is documented that the amounts of carbon stored and its level of degradation in different forests compositions and different types of forest is mostly unknown, Philippines is no exemption as little was done in some places of this country. This study was conducted to assess carbon stock through above ground biomass of trees at different forest composition in Mt. Malindawag. There were three (3) 20m x 20m sample plots (quadrats) (400m2 equivalent to 0.04 ha) established as replicate plots provided with 50m intervals. Forest composition such as the Agroforestry area, mixed forest area and the Plantation forest were assessed in terms of the number of individuals, number of species, diameter, and height to calculate the biomass, tree biomass density as well as the carbon stock. Based on the results of the study conducted in different forest compositions of Mt. Malindawag, plantation forest has the highest carbon stocking rate. However, these results were not significantly different from the other forest composition. This was associated with a higher accumulated diameter, which resulted in higher biomass and eventually carbon stock. Species found in this forest composition are productive and have lesser number of individuals; therefore, there is lesser competition for resources such as light. Such a mechanism might contribute to the higher biomass and carbon stock. However, the result may not be right to other areas due to uncontrollable factors, anthropogenic and environmental factors. Hence, it is recommended to have further studies on areas where trees have similar age, species diversity index as well as stand development and site productivity for a more accurate and quantifiable carbon stock.

There are only five studies on tintinnids of the Philippines. We present a checklist of tintinnids (Ciliophora, Oligotrichea) from Masinloc-Oyon Bay, Province of Zambales, West Philippine Sea. Masinloc-Oyon Bay is a unique in having both marine protected areas and a coal-fired thermal power plant within the same bay. Field sampling was performed in July 2017, which recorded 10 species belonging to one order, six families, and seven genera. Station 1 inside the power plant&rsquo;s outfall had the lowest diversity, whereas the stations within marine protected areas had a relatively higher species diversity index. Our new data are the first records of tintinnid species in Masinloc-Oyon Bay. These records add to the regional checklist of the Philippine Sea.
