2. 1. Ecology of juvenile turbot and flounder in the Central Baltic Sea : Implications for recruitment

   Author : Jesper Martinsson; Sture Hansson; Magnus Appelberg; Anders Nissling; Leif Pihl; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Psetta maxima; Platichthys flesus; juvenile; Baltic Sea; nursery ground; distribution; recruitment; Marine Ecology; marin ekologi;

   Abstract : Our understanding of turbot and flounder ecology in the Baltic Sea is insufficient for sound management decisions. This thesis aims to fill some gaps in current knowledge by providing information of the ecology of turbot and flounder within their juvenile habitat, and to relate these findings to issues assumed relevant for recruitment variation.

4. 2. Development of photoreceptor organs in teleosts, Molecular and immunocytochemical studies

   Author : Johan Forsell; Tumörmikromiljö; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fish; opsin; extraretinal; retina; Development; pineal organ; Zoology; Zoologi;

   Abstract : Many vertebrate animals are known to have multiple sites for photoreception that are not involved in vision. Extraretinal photoreception is indicated to play a crucial role in early development, physiology and behavior, as well as in later biological processes. READ MORE

5. 3. Studies of fish responses to the antifoulant medetomidine

   Author : Anna Lennquist; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : antifouling; fish; medetomidine; ecotoxicology; biomarker;

   Abstract : ABSTRACT Growth of marine organisms, fouling, on man-made constructions submerged in the water is regarded as a major problem. For vessels, fouling increases drag and thereby fuel consumption, wherefore antifouling paints are used. Traditionally, they contain toxic compounds, and several of these have unwanted effects in the environment. READ MORE
