▼ Coastal wetlands play an important role in filtering nutrient contaminants from water bodies and are also effective carbon sinks. These systems are known as blue carbon ecosystems. Blue carbon is defined as the carbon stored and sequestered by coastal vegetated habitats such as seagrasses, salt marsh and mangroves. These habitats are being lost on a global scale due to climate change and other anthropogenic pressures. Quantifying ecosystem services provided by these habitats may lead to better conservation and restoration strategies. Research on this topic has escalated over the past decade but there are no published studies in South Africa. The aim of this study was to quantify the carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus stocks in the above and below ground tissues of Zostera capensis, Spartina maritima, and Salicornia tegetaria — a seagrass, salt marsh grass, and salt marsh succulent. This was done in both summer and winter to understand the variability of carbon and nutrient storage. The organic carbon stock of the sediment beneath these three species was also quantified. Results showed that S. maritima, S. tegetaria, and Z. capensis stored 16 ± 2.9 Mg C. ha-1, 4.3 ± 0.7 Mg C. ha-1, and 2.1 ± 0.5 Mg C. ha-1 in their respective biomass, and 247 ± 48 Mg C. ha-1, 212 ± 44 Mg C. ha-1, and 224 ± 38 Mg C. ha-1 respectively in the sediment beneath these habitats. This was determined by elemental analysis and the loss on ignition method (LOI). The sediment made up the dominant carbon pool in the estuary and there was very little seasonal variation, however spatial variation was evident. The sediment carbon stocks were similar to the global mean for salt marsh (255 Mg C. ha-1) and greater than the global mean for seagrass (108 Mg C. ha-1). The Swartkops Estuary stored a total (biomass and sediment carbon combined) of 14 094 Mg C in the Z. capensis area of 62 ha, 25 286 Mg C in the S. maritima area of 96 ha, and 5 916 Mg C in the S. tegetaria, covering an area of 27 ha. This is significantly less than what has been found globally in estuaries, but this is largely due to the smaller area cover of these macrophytes. The amount of carbon stored per hectare is much larger in this South African system than in many international studies — possibly due to the high levels of pollution coming into the system. Nitrogen and phosphorus stocks in the plants fluctuated seasonally in relation to the nutrient input to the estuary, with the greatest stocks found in winter in Z. capensis, S. maritima, and S. tegetaria (0.42 ± 0.03 Mg N. ha-1, 1.6 ± 0.13 Mg N. ha-1, and 0.37 ± 0.02 Mg N. ha-1, respectively; and 0.4 ± 0.03 Mg P. ha-1, 1.2 ± 0.10 Mg P. ha-1 in Z. capensis and S. maritima respectively) because nutrient inputs to the system were highest in winter, however the P stocks in S. tegetaria were greatest in summer (0.35 ± 0.04 Mg P. ha-1). The reason for this difference is because of their ability to store phosphorus better than nitrogen and for longer periods of time due to luxury uptake. Salicornia tegetaria N and P stocks were also lower…

▼

Temperature is considered a very important abiotic factor in fish communities. An increase in water temperature, as is found with the use of nuclear production reactors, can act as a stressor in aquatic systems. The P-reactor, operational from 1954-1988, on the Savannah River Site near Aiken, South Carolina, utilized the Par Pond Reservoir System as part of its cooling mechanisms. During reactor operation, heated effluents were displaced into Pond C, causing the water to be heated to around 45° C. Fischer (1994) found that the bluegill population had adapted with changes to their morphology and physiology. The bluegill from the heated pond took on a fusiform shape with fin dimensions suited for open water. Fischer (1994) also observed a difference in lipid storage between bluegill from the ponds. When the reactor was periodically shut down for maintenance, he observed that bluegill from Pond C stored large amounts of lipids very quickly which acted as a buffer for when the reactor was again operational. It has now been over 20 years since the P-reactor was permanently shut down, releasing the entire bluegill population in Pond C from the thermal stressor and its associated selection pressures. This study was aimed at determining how the bluegill would respond to the release of the selection pressures. Specifically, I addressed: 1) Will Pond C bluegill return to the original bluegill morphology? and 2) Will there be a difference between Pond C and Par Pond bluegill in the timing and amount of lipids stored? Bluegill were collected from both ponds during the spring, summer, and fall of 2010, and then analyzed for both morphological and physiological differences. In the case of morphology, bluegill maintained the more streamlined bodies with propulsion fins, indicating that these changes are the result of rapid evolution and may be adaptive for Pond C bluegill under a series of different environmental conditions. As for lipid storage, lipid dynamics in Pond C bluegill seem to be influenced by seasonal changes and follow the typical cycles observed in southeastern bluegill, indicating that their previous response was an example of phenotypic plasticity.

▼ Annual rates of shallow autocompaction (< 1 m) were calculated in the upper ~one meter of sediment from six cores of a transect in the Pearl River Marsh (PRM), Louisiana, in order to determine the most significant sedimentary property controlling this process. Compaction-free wedge cores were sub-sampled at one centimeter intervals to collect the following data: age control, using 137Cs and 210Pb, and sedimentary variables, specifically, particulate organic carbon, bulk density, median grain size, porosity, and water content. An upper and an underlying sedimentary unit (named the 137Cs and 210Pb units) were defined between radiometric datum levels, and their sedimentary properties were statistically tested for significant differences using the non-parametric Mann-Whitney test. Rates of autocompaction were calculated from the model of Williams (2003), and both rates of autocompaction and sedimentation were tested for significant differences between the upper and lower sedimentary units. The upper unit in the six cores generally had lower bulk density, higher water content, higher porosity, and higher particulate organic carbon than the underlying unit, but with some interesting exceptions. Additionally, annual autocompaction and sedimentation rates were greatest in the overlying unit at stations PR02 (0.39 ± 0.05 cm/y) and PR05 (0.42 ± 0.03 cm/y) and greatest in the underlying unit at stations PR02 (0.22 ± 0.08 cm/y) and PR03 (0.18 ± 0.06 cm/y). Based on Spearman correlations, rates of autocompaction were most strongly correlated to and influenced by rates of sedimentation rather than the other sedimentary variables: particulate organic carbon, bulk density, median grain size, porosity, and water content. The rates of sedimentation and autocompaction from this study were similar to rates measured in similar studies that use different methodologies to calculate compaction. This study demonstrates that rates of autocompaction are highly variable in near-surface sediments and that these rates significantly decrease with increased depth.

▼ Tidal exchanges of organic carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus between a south temperate Sarcocornia marsh and its associated estuary are examined. Subterranean water flow was small, and the hydraulic exchange between the two systems largely surficial. The dominant tidal signal was semi-diurnal, and the extent of inundation of the marsh varied considerably as a consequence of interactions of semi-lunar tidal cycles with changes in daily mean sea level. Annual net fluxes of organic carbon were directed from the marsh to the estuary, but amounted to less than 2% of marsh aerial net primary productivity. This indicates the incompatibility of E.P. Odum's outwelling hypothesis to this marsh-estuarine system. The direction of net flux of organic carbon switched on a time-scale of days. These directions were largely correlated with mesoscale oceanic events, which materially altered the extent of marsh inundation, and which provided evidence of the mutual exclusivity of outwelling of DOC from the marsh and oceanic upwelling. Laboratory mesocosm experiments using intact marsh blocks of sediment from the marsh were conducted to identify the proximate processes and interactions at the marsh-water interface responsible for the variability of marsh-estuarine exchanges. Patterns of fluxes of organic carbon, total nitrogen and phosphorus were markedly different in the structurally contrasted tidal creek and Sarcocornia Zone regions of the marsh. Both regions exported these components, but the fluxes of organic carbon and total phosphorus were significantly larger from the tidal creek than from the Sarcocornia zone, and the opposite applied to nitrogen. The presence of brachyuran crabs . the most numerous macrofauna on the marsh enhanced the flux of carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus from the marsh biocoenosis, largely as a result of the effect of their bioturbation. Evidence is examined which suggests that differential mobilization of nutrients in the two zones by crabs is responsible for biogeochemical coupling of these two regions , which may account for the elevated productivity of salt- marsh systems

▼ Approximately 70% of modern-day freshwater mussel species in North America are considered threatened, endangered, or recently extinct, and a large number of the non-extinct species are endemic to a narrow geographic range. Freshwater mussel conservation efforts have been limited by taxonomic ambiguity and morphologic convergence. Lake Waccamaw in southeastern North Carolina contains two endemic species, Lampsilis fullerkati and Elliptio waccamawensis, which share nearly identical shell morphologies. This convergence in shell morphology complicates conservation efforts. To provide an alternative means to discriminate them, I developed a Polymerase Chain Reaction-Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) assay for genetic identification. Genomic DNA was obtained using a non-lethal method of hemolymph extraction. DNA was amplified using 16S rRNA gene specific primers and digested with Hinf I, Ava II, and Hind III. However, only the banding patterns of Ava II and Hind III digestions were diagnostic for these species and were used to type 112 individuals. RFLP and DNA sequencing data revealed three individuals that had been misidentified based on morphology. In addition, phylogenetic analysis was used to assess the taxonomy and to test the status of these putative endemics. Mitochondrial 16S rRNA gene, cox1, and nad1 sequences were obtained from 109 individuals sampled from Lake Waccamaw, the adjacent Waccamaw River, and the Yadkin/Pee Dee, Little Pee Dee, and Lumber Rivers in the Pee Dee Drainage. Results from Bayesian analyses suggest the endemic status of both L. fullerkati and E. waccamawensis may need to be reconsidered. L. fullerkati is not phylogenetically distinct from Lampsilis radiata collected outside the lake, and E. waccamawensis groups with and is not genetically distinguishable from E. congaraea individuals from the Waccamaw River.; Mussels – Effect of water pollution on – North Carolina – Lake Waccamaw, Mussels – Effect of pollution on – North Carolina – Lake Waccamaw, Mussels – North Carolina – Lake Waccamaw – Genetics Advisors/Committee Members: Michael McCartney (advisor).

▼ Tidal riparian wetlands serve as buffers between upland areas and the adjacent river channel. The ability of these swamps and marshes to keep up with changes in sea level depends on a combination on several factors including: sediment availability, hydrologic regime, deposition rates, and below ground productivity, that control surface elevation. This study examines sediment availability, deposition, and elevation change across different types of tidal wetlands in the Lower Cape Fear River Estuary, North Carolina. The study used marsh and swamp sites as well as sites along two different stream types, black and brown-water, within the estuary. Marshes and wetlands along the brown-water river exhibited significantly greater and more variable deposition rates than swamps and wetlands located along the black-water river (0.720 ± 1.310 gm2day-1 and 0.710 ± 1.270 gm2day-1). The brown-water marsh site exhibited significantly greater rates of deposition than any of the other sites. Organic content of deposited material was highest at the black-water swamp site and lowest at the brown-water marsh site. Total suspended solids measured once a month over a single flood tide were highest at the black-water marsh (33.01 ± 43.54 mgL-1) and lowest at the black-water swamp (3.07 ± 10.62 mgL-1). Measurements of surface water flow during a single ebb tide at each site were examined along with the mean grain size of available material. Results showed vertical flow speed and grain size were the dominant controls on deposition in this system. Measurements of surface elevation at each wetland showed a loss of elevation at the marsh sites and very slight increases at the swamp sites. When compared to current rates of sea-level rise for the area, it appears that these wetlands are not able to maintain their elevation in the face of rising sea-level.; Salt marsh ecology – North Carolina – Cape Fear River, Sediment control – North Carolina – Cape Fear River, Sediment transport – North Carolina – Cape Fear River, Sedimentation and deposition – North Carolina – Cape Fear River, Slackwater deposits – North Carolina – Cape Fear River, Wetlands – North Carolina Advisors/Committee Members: Lynn Leonard (advisor).

▼ Par Pond is a man-made 1120 ha cooling reservoir located on the Savannah River Site near Aiken, South Carolina. From 1972-1978 a detailed study on the status of the alligator in Par Pond was conducted by Tom Murphy (unpub. MS thesis Univ. of GA, 1977). Murphy estimated that approximately 110 alligators inhabited Par Pond with an adult (> 1.8 m) to juvenile (< 1.8 m) ratio of (1.8:1), an overall sex ratio of 3.2:1, and an average of only 2.3 nests/yr. The purpose of this study (1986-1989) was to determine the current population size and structure, determine how the population has changed in the last 15 years and to examine growth and survival of juvenile alligators. Data were collected by monthly night-time eyeshine counts aerial surveys, capturing animals, and locating and following the fate of nests. There was a strong positive correlation between water temperature and the number of alligators observed during eyeshine counts. Both eyeshine counts and aerial surveys were highest in spring and varied seasonally. A total of 184 different non-hatchling and 157 hatchling alligators were captured between May 1986 and November 1988. Population estimates and size distributions based on capture data indicate that over the last 15 years the population has increased from approximately 110 to 200 alligators, and the size distribution has shifted from one dominated by large adults to one that has a higher proportion of juveniles. The current sex ratio (2.6:1) is not significantly different from that reported by Murphy (1977, 3.2:1). However, the average number of nests/yr has increased from 2.3 to 4.0. Data on juvenile growth and survival show that the growth rate of hatchlings (32.9 cm/yr total length) is greater than that of animals age 1-3 (21.6 cm/yr total length) and survival of all ages is variable between years and between clutches. Results from this study indicate that from 1972-988 the population has increased ac an average exponential rate of 6 % per year. If conditions in Par Pond do not change, the population size should continue to increase. Advisors/Committee Members: George H. Dalrymple, J. Whitfield Gibbons, Martin Tracey, Frank J. Mazzotti.

▼ Recently proposed models describing white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) social ecology have been used as the basis for management strategies. Population expansion models describe the formation of persistent matrilineal social groups among female deer, with limited dispersal of young females. The localized management concept proposes that removal of social groups will produce persistent areas of reduced deer density due to social restrictions on colonization of new habitats by females. However, this species exhibits a remarkable degree of behavioral plasticity in response to varying conditions and the social behaviors underlying localized management have been tested only in a limited range of habitats and locations. I evaluated the potential for localized management to reduce the incidence of deer-vehicle collisions in a low density, intensively managed deer population on the Savannah River Site (SRS) in the upper Coastal Plain of South Carolina. Based on radiotelemetry data collected for 17 female deer in combination with genotype data for 38 females at 14 microsatellite DNA loci, I determined that female deer at the SRS did not form the cohesive, persistent social groups described by the population expansion models. Dispersal rates of female deer also appeared greater than rates reported in other populations. I used microsatellite DNA analysis of nearly 2400 individuals to show that deer at the SRS exhibited little genetic structure across the 800-km study site, in contrast to previous investigations showing genetic structure at state or regional scales. Tests of dispersal also suggested high rates of female-mediated gene flow. I also conducted a field test of the localized management concept by implementing removal actions in 4 corridors surrounding major roadways. Genetic analyses indicated that, in contrast to previous tests of the concept, removal corridors did not form genetically distinct subpopulations. The removal actions were effective in reducing population density in the road corridors in the short term; however, the persistence of these reductions is uncertain. Management history, especially the high doe harvest, of the SRS population provided a logical explanation for my observations. Overall, the results of the study do not support the universal applicability of the studied models of deer social ecology and of the localized management concept.

▼ Crabs are conspicuous inhabitants of temperate salt marshes and tropical mangroves and interact with their environment through several processes. However, detailed information on crab community processes is absent for most South African estuaries and nearshore coastal regions. This study evaluated the primary producers supporting crab species in the salt marsh dominated Swartkops estuary and the mangrove Mngazana estuary. Various methods estimating crab abundances were also assessed in different microhabitats and the larval distribution of crabs in the coastal zone was also investigated. Various methods for estimating crab abundance have been employed in the past, each with its inherent biases. The microhabitat of a mangrove forest in Australia was structurally altered by the manipulation of the litter, pneumatophores and the associated algae. These alterations did not affect the behavioural activity or the numbers of crabs recorded in any of the experimental treatments by either visual counts or pitfall traps. However, the number of crabs caught in the pitfall traps differed between the sites. Species-specific behaviour which was not investigated in this study may bias crab abundance estimates when using pitfall traps and therefore requires further investigation. Benthic consumers inhabiting shallow coastal environments may ultimately have the origin of their nutrition in a number of possible sources. Isotopic and gut content analysis of Thalamita crenata and juvenile Scylla serrata in the Mngazana estuary in South Africa revealed that these two portunids are able to share a habitat by resource partitioning. Differences were noted for species-specific utilization of primary producers not only between seasons within a site, but also between sites. This highlighted the use of locally produced primary producers sustaining food webs in estuaries. Mangrove production in the Mngazana estuary is very important and contributes to most of the carbon in the underlying sediments in the mangrove forest. However, the relatively large number of species and biomass encountered in this estuary may also be attributed to the fact that the different species are able to exploit of a number of different resources. The variation in stable isotope analysis of the different crab species throughout the estuary indicated that these crabs able to occupy the same habitat by feeding on a number of different resources and may preferentially select for a specific primary producer. A stable isotope of crabs in the salt marsh Swartkops estuary indicated that the dominant primary producer sustaining crab communities may even take place on a relatively smallscale. Sesarma catenata found at the inner marsh site recorded more depleted carbon signatures than those encountered in the other sites approximately 100 m away, and reflected signatures similar to the locally-encountered inner marsh plants. The relatively enriched nitrogen signatures of the anthropogenically-impacted Swartkops estuary is an indication of extensive inputs due to urbanization and… Advisors/Committee Members: Baird, D Prof.

▼ The general paradigm for the observed plant zonation in salt marshes is that a combination of abiotic stress and competition drive vegetation patterns within a single marsh, but there have been few studies investigating the bankside vegetation changes that occur along the longitudinal salinity gradient of estuaries. The main objectives of the research presented in this dissertation were to examine whether the same controls that explain the distribution of Spartina alterniflora in the salt marsh can be applied without modification to a longitudinal salinity gradient and to evaluate changes in Spartina distributions under drought conditions. Reciprocal transplant studies, greenhouse experiments, species removals in mixed Spartina stands, and vegetation surveys were conducted in the estuary of the Altamaha River, GA, where S. cynosusroides occurs upstream of S. alterniflora. In reciprocal transplant experiments, each plant survived and performed best in its natural habitat. The presence of conspecific neighbors slightly reduced S. alterniflora plant performance in the salt marsh whereas S. cynosuroides showed little response in either environment. The results of these and other experiments suggest the lower estuarine distribution of Spartina cynosuroides is controlled by abiotic conditions (salinity or sulfide concentrations). The upper estuarine distribution of S. alterniflora is not well understood, but seems to also be primarily controlled by abiotic factors (possibly a sulfate requirement). These outcomes challenge results from previous investigations of zonation controls in salt marshes and suggest that modifications to the salt marsh paradigm are necessary when describing vegetation distribution along an estuarine gradient. During an extended drought (2000-2002), Spartina alterniflora density increased to a greater extent than S. cynosuroides in mixed stands and the location where Spartina cover was 50 % S. cynosuroides and 50 % S. alterniflora shifted approximately 3 km upriver, suggesting that Spartina communities can respond rapidly to increasing estuarine salinity. These studies improve our understanding of the ecological linkages in estuaries and can aid coastal policymakers in making better management decisions and predictions concerning how changes in freshwater inflow might impact the distribution of estuarine organisms.

▼ Several projects in the Sacramento San Joaquin River Delta has been proposed in the form of tidal marsh restoration, which is an environmental hydromodification to allow for a more natural tidal wetland on existing shorelines. There are many planned projects for this region, but there are four specific separate tidal marsh hydromodification projects that are the most developed and engineered: the Chevron Point Tidal Marsh restoration on Twitchell Island, Meins Landing Tidal Habitat Restoration Project, Dutch Slough Tidal Habitat Restoration, and the McCormack Williamson Tract Breaching and Restoration Project. Models currently exist for all but the Chevron Point Tidal project. All of the remaining projects have been modeled on an individual basis, meaning these specific proposed projects usually never take into account any addition or other tidal projects working concurrently, as far as modeling attempts. In order to gain a better understanding of how these potential projects could hydraulically interact as a ???system??? after construction, the projects should be modeled together to determine the absolute hydraulics of the entire Delta system as a whole. An existing state of the art model developed by Aquaveo and the United States Army Corps of Engineers, the Adaptive Hydraulics Model (ADH), of the Sacramento San Joaquin River Delta was obtained and utilized for the proposed tidal marsh modeling. The ADH model utilized hydraulic and hydrologic data collected from various sources and calibrated to simulate a normal water year with one 50-year storm event. Elevation data for the proposed tidal marsh projects was collected using GPS technology on site (for Chevron Point) or extracted from the Delta Lidar data collected in 2007. To connect these new data points with the bathymetry found in the existing model, breaches were created in the model at each of the four projects, each approximately 50-100 meters in length. After various failed running attempts and debugging, the existing ADH model of the Sacramento San Joaquin River Delta was successfully altered to include the four tidal marsh restoration hydromodification project sites. Water depth and water velocity (both direction and magnitude), and the water surface elevation was calculated for the entire area of each project and successfully simulated a 2520 hour event under normal water year conditions. Several observation points were established for each of the projects, where water depth and velocity data was collected and compared amongst each of the project sites and some previous model results. The resulting average water depths were between 0.64 and 2.28 meters, and the average velocities were between 0.02 and 0.12 meters per second. These results were compared to several other previous model study results, with average water depths were between 0.75 and 0.91 meters, and the average velocities were at 0.09 meters per second. It was determined that the four different sites modeled together or separately would produce similar hydraulic numerical… Advisors/Committee Members: Merayyan, Saad.

▼ The Oconaluftee River is a moderate to large sized stream located in the Little Tennessee River basin of the southern Appalachian Mountains. The Little Tennessee River basin is home to six different species of Redhorse, three of which, Black (Moxostoma duquesnii), Golden (M. erythrurum), and Sicklefin (M. sp.), are thought to have historically occurred in the section of the Oconaluftee River above Bryson Dam near the mouth of the River. Despite propagation efforts and restorative stocking of the extirpated Sicklefin Redhorse population, there has been no sign of success. Understanding of rare species (such as the Sicklefin Redhorse) has been a priority for researchers; however, other Redhorse species are understudied in the southern Appalachian Mountain region. Increasing the overall knowledge of other Redhorse populations in areas where Sicklefin Redhorse have been extirpated provides vital information on ability of the habitat to support Redhorse populations. From April to September of 2017, we used fyke netting and mark-recapture electrofishing surveys to assess Redhorse population abundance and demographics in the upper Oconaluftee River. Due to high flows and interference from otters, we determined that the fyke net was unsuitable for sampling in this system. Using the raft electrofishing system, we captured 624 Black Redhorse aged 1-12 and 138 Golden Redhorse aged 1-10. No Sicklefin Redhorse were captured during our sampling events. Population abundance of the sampled reaches for Black Redhorse was estimated at n=2101 (Schumacher-Eschmeyer) or n = 1357 (Cormack-Jolly-Seber) and Golden Redhorse was estimated at n = 1084 (Schumacher-Eschmeyer) and too few recaptures occurred to estimate using the Cormack-Jolly-Seber model. Two distinctive size classes were found for both species of Redhorse, which were grouped largely by age. Only one individual was aged at 4 years for Golden Redhorse, perhaps indicating a failed year class for the population or failure to capture Redhorse in that year class. Using life-table modeling, the Black Redhorse population in the upper Oconaluftee system was estimated to be slightly increasing. Electrofishing surveys were most efficient at lower discharge levels for capturing Redhorse. The von Bertalanffy growth models show similar parameters to those from other Southern Appalachian populations as well as Black Redhorse populations in Canada. Weekly larval fish samples were taken from April to August 2017 using drift nets and light traps to assess Redhorse reproductive occurrence and reproductive output. Larval catostomids were captured at all sampling locations with the majority (>70%) being identified as Moxostoma, indicating that there are reproducing Redhorse populations throughout the entire upper Oconaluftee system. There was a significant difference in sample location, with the middle sample site having the highest drift density (Mean drift densities for each site from 4/26/17-6/4/17: Up=7.54 x 10-3 larvae/m3, Mid=2.93 x 10-2 larvae/m3, Low=3.10 x 10-3 larvae/m3).
