Over het archief
Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.
Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

| Abstract |
The lanternfish, Electrona anarctica, is endemic to the Southern Ocean. It is a meso-plelagic that displays strong diurnal migrations. During the day it remains at great depth (500-750m) and migrates to the surface during the night to feed on copepods and euphausids. It is one of the most abundant fish in the open waters of the Southern Ocean and is an important resource for many top-predators.During a campaign of the German RV Polarstern (ANT XXI/4, march-may 2004) in the Lazarev Sea, samples of different life classes were collected using pelagic trawls (RMT 8+1). By using three different approaches (ecology, modelling and genetic analysis) knowledge about the status role and control of this species will increase. Here, we present these different approaches and some preliminary results.The ecological approach focuses on the distribution, feeding ecology and energy content of different life stages. By using dynamic programming different survival strategies for E. antarctica will be modelled and compared with each other. Finally by using mitochondrial and microsatellite markers the genetic structure of E. antarctica is studied on an population genetic (Lazarev Sea) en phylogeographic (Circum-Antarctic) scale. This research is done in the framework of the DWTC-funded PELAGANT-project. This project is a joint-project of the KULeuven and the ULiège and is done in collaboration with research institutes in Germany (AWI), France (IPEV) and the Netherlands (ALTERRA). |
