Diatoms, particularly pennate diatoms, dominated the phytoplankton community. The dominant species were Grammonema islandica (Grunow in Van Heurck) Hasle, Fragilariopsis cylindrus (Grunow) Krieger, F. oceanica (Cleve) Hasle, Navicula vanhoeffenii Gran, Thalassiosira antarctica Comber, T. gravida Cleve, T. nordenskioeldii Cleve, and T. rotula Meunier. Phytoplankton cell densities varied from 0.08× 10^4 to 428.8× 10^4 cells/L, with an average of 30.3× 10^4 cells/L. Using cluster analysis, phytoplankton were grouped into three assemblages defined by ice-forming conditions: open wate.r, ice edge, and sea ice assemblages. In spring, when the sea ice melts, the phytoplankton dispersed from the sea ice to the ice edge and even into open waters. Thus, these phytoplankton in the sea ice may serve as a “seed bank” for phytoplankton population succession in the subarctic ecosystem. Moreover, historical studies combined with these results suggest that the sizes of diatom species have become smaller, shifting from microplankton to nannoplankton-dominated communities.展开更多

The present study examined changes of species richness and abundance of Mbuna with time. Most sites demarcated during the 1980s survey were explored in order to determine changes in abundance and composition of Mbuna over a period of more than 20 years Chi-square analysis revealed significant difference (p 〈 0.05) in abundance of Mbuna between 1983 and 2005 with the exception of Chinyankhwazi and Chinyamwezi where the difference was not significant (p 〉 0.05). Cluster analysis showed changes in species composition between 1983 and 2005 in various sites. Generally, there were more species lost in a given area than new species observed in 2005. Decline in Mbuna species richness might have been caused by siltation, harvesting of Mbuna for food and ornamental fish trade while new species were mostly introduced through translocation from one part of the lake to another.展开更多

The purpose of this paper is to determine the structure of N under the hypotheses that N contains R and the G-conjugacy class size of every element of N is either i or m. Particularly, it is shown that N is Abelian if N ∩ Z(G)=1 and the G-conjugacy class size of every element of N is either 1 or m.展开更多

It is shown that there are three, nine, forty-four and sixty-one inequivalent equations admitting one-, two-, three- and four-dimensionM solvable Lie algebras, respectively. We also prove that there are no semisimple Lie group 50(3) as the symmetry group of the equation, and only two realizations oral(2, R) are admitted by the equation. The resulting invariant equations contain both the well-known equations and a variety of new ones.展开更多
