  1. This paper focuses on the marine foundation eelgrass species, Zostera marina , along a gradient from the northern Baltic Sea to the north-east Atlantic. This vast region supports a minimum of 1480km 2 eelgrass (maximum > 2100km 2 ), which corresponds to more than four times the previously quanti fi ed area of eelgrass in Western Europe. 2. Eelgrass meadows in the low salinity Baltic Sea support the highest diversity (4 – 6 spp.) of angiosperms overall, but eelgrass productivity is low ( < 2g dw m -2 d -1 ) and meadows are isolated and genetically impoverished. Higher salinity areas support monospeci fi c meadows, with higher productivity (3 – 10g dw m -2 d -1 ) and greater genetic connectivity. The salinity gradient further imposes functional differences in biodiversity and food webs, in particular a decline in number, but increase in biomass of mesograzers in the Baltic. 3. Signi fi cant declines in eelgrass depth limits and areal cover are documented, particularly in regions experiencing high human pressure. The failure of eelgrass to re-establish itself in affected areas, despite nutrient reductions and improved water quality, signals complex recovery trajectories and calls for much greater conservation effort to protect existing meadows.

  : In central Norway, populations of the green sea urchin Strongylocentrotus droe- bachiensis are collapsing, but the factors controlling its population density have not yet been elucidated. Through field sampling, we identified several sea urchin predators and investigated their predation rates on recently settled S. droebachiensis in laboratory experiments. Tethering experiments in kelp forest and on barren ground study sites in the area where sea urchin popula- tions are collapsing confirmed predation by some of the predators tested in laboratory experi- ments. The edible crab Cancer pagurus was the most efficient sea urchin predator, and it was more abundant at kelp forest sites than on barren grounds. Stocks of C. pagurus have increased dramatically in central Norway since the 1990s, and predation by C. pagurus may contribute to the decline in sea urchin densities, allowing kelp recovery and conferring resilience of the new kelp forest state.

  The macrophytes Fucus serratus and Zostera marina form similar substrates for associated flora and fauna in shallow waters in Norway. While F. serratus forms a more or less continuous belt on rocky substrate along the coast, Z. marina forms disjunct populations on sandy or muddy bottoms. This study has focused on the organisms associated with these two macrophytes on two localities in the Skagerrak region. A total of 131 taxa of epiphytic organisms were identified, 22 green algae, 41 red algae, 32 brown algae, 8 diatoms and 28 sessile animals. 127 taxa of mobile macrofauna were registered. The dominant group was crustaceans, with amphipods as the order containing most species. Many species of both plants and animals preferred the one or the other habitat. It is concluded that coastal macrophyte systems have high species diversity.

  Algekultursamlingen ved Universitetet i Oslo ble startet på 1950-tallet ved avdeling for Marin botanikk til bruk i eksperimentelle og taksonomiske studier. Samlingen har gjennomgått stadige forandringer og vært preget av pågående forskningsprosjekter. I dag består samlingen av mer enn 200 stammer av eukaryote og prokaryote marine mikroalger innen algedivisjonene Haptophyta, Dinophyta, Chlorophyta, Ochrophyta, Cryptophyta, Cyanophyta, Euglenozoa og Chloraracniophyta. De fleste stammene er isolert fra norske kystfarvann og ved fortynningsserier eller kapillærisolering av ansatte ved instituttet. De dyrkes i ulike sjøvannsmedier med saltholdighet fra 10 til 40 PSU, i 7 klimarom med temperaturer fra 3 til 25 °C. Nåværende samling har blitt utviklet blandt annet for forskning relatert til alger innen divisjonen Haptophyta, og inkluderer 85 stammer av denne gruppen. Samlingen inneholder flere "type-kulturer" som representerer en ny art beskrevet av UiO-forskere, og flere toksiske stammer. Algekulturene er en sentral del av forskningen og undervisningen om mikroalgers taksonomi, fylogeni, økologi, fysiologi, kjemi, genomikk og evolusjon ved instituttet. Kulturer sendes også til andre forskere i inn- og utland. Algekultursamlingen er en verdifull ressurs som også kan utnyttes innen bioprospektering og bioteknologi.

  Sæthre B. & Fredriksen S. Avdeling for marin botanikk, Biologisk Institutt, Universitetet i Oslo. Postboks 1069 Blindern, 0316 Oslo. Epifytter på ålegras (Zostera marina) og sagtang (Fucus serratus) ¿ en sammenligning gjennom 4 årstider. På verdensbasis finnes det rundt 50 arter sjøgress. I Norge finnes det to arter - vanlig ålegras (Zostera marina) og dvergålegras (Zostera noltii). Ålegras er utbredt langs hele kysten, dog sjelden funnet i Troms og Finnmark. Ett kjennetegn for sjøgrasarter, i motsetning til makroalger, er det underjordiske rotsystemet (rhizomet) som brukes både til å holde planten fast og til å ta opp næringssalter. Det tette bladlaget vil hos ålegras, som hos makroalger, skape voksested for epifyttiske alger og dyr og skjulested for svømmende dyr. Sjøgrasområder representerer på verdensbasis viktige marine økosystemer da de er svært produktive, i størrelsesorden 500 ¿ 1000 g karbon m-2 år-1. I Norge er slike områder regnet for å være viktige som oppvekstområder for fisk. Ålegras har spredte populasjoner og finnes langs hele kysten fra relativt eksponerte områder til mer beskyttede. En makroalge med lignende vid utbredelse er sagtang. Denne kan til en viss grad ligne ålegras i morfologi i det den er flattrykt og har en glatt overflate. Den har så vidt overlappende dybdeutbredelse med ålegras (utbredelsen er stort sett er grunnere). Særlig fordi sagtangen danner tette og i stor grad sammenhengende populasjoner, vil den være godt egnet for en sammenligning med ålegras som danner disjunkte populasjoner. Ålegras og sagtang har vært samlet gjennom 4 årstider, april, juni, september, november, på en beskyttet stasjon utenfor Flødevigen ved Arendal. Materialet ble fiksert og opparbeidet i lab ved UiO. Fra hver innsamling er det sett på 3 hele ålegrasplanter og på 5 biter av sagtang (fortrengningsvolum ca 400 ml). Sagtangsamfunnet er mest artsrikt sommer og høst, om våren er det særlig antall arter av dyr som er lavt (kun 5 arter fastsittende dyr). Ålegrassamfunnet på sin side er artsfattig i juni, noe som sannsynligvis skyldes plantenes raske vekst midtsommers. Flest arter fantes i ålegrassamfunnet i november. Det finnes arter som bare er knyttet til ett av de to undersøkte samfunnene. Både på ålegras og på sagtang ble det observert et kraftig nedslag av blåskjell i juni. Disse var imidlertid forsvunnet ved augustinnsamlingen. Konklusjon: Diversiteten i slike ålegras- og sagtangsamfunn er høy, med tydelige variasjoner gjennom året. Undersøkelsen inngår som en del av det NFR støttede prosjektet "Biodiversitet i makrofyttsamfunn. Variasjoner i tid og rom."

  FOOD CHAIN STUDIES IN A NORWEGIAN KELP FOREST BASED ON STABLE CARBON ISOTOPE ANALYSIS S. FREDRIKSEN & J. RUENESS University of Oslo, Department of Biology, Section for Marine Botany, P.O. Box 1069 Blindern, N-0316 Oslo, Norway. Email: stein.fredriksen@bio.uio.no, jan.rueness@bio.uio.no Laminaria hyperborea is the dominant and canopy forming kelp species along the Norwegian coast. It creates a three dimentional forest which is habitat for numerous other algae and animals. Food chain studies have been carried out in the kelp forest by using stable isotopes. The young kelp plants have a more negative carbon (13C/12C) ratio (- 21¿ to -24¿) than the old plants (- 15¿ to 17¿). No significant annual variation was found. Some red algae (RED ALGAE I, fig. 1, e.g. Palmaria palmata, Polysiphonia elongata, Rhodomela confervoides) had ratios equal to the old kelp plants, while others (RED ALGAE II, fig. 1, e.g. Delesseria sanguinea, Phycodrys rubens, Ptilota gunneri) had ratios in the range - 32¿ to -35¿. Phytoplankton ratios were in the range from - 23¿ to - 27¿. Most of the animals analyzed, both invertebrates (grazers and filter feeders) and vertebrates (fish), had 13C/12C ratios from - 15¿ to - 23¿ suggesting that these animals have kelp as their primary carbon source. The nudibranch Aplysia punctata had a 13C/12C ratio from -29 to - 33¿, and is an example of a species feeding on mostly red algae. The only group for which the isotopic ratio was close to that of phytoplankton was the amphipods. We interpret this as the result of a mixed diet of kelp and red algae rather than phytoplankton. This is supported by the fact that phytoplankton abundance is at a minimum, in early autum, when the amphipods are most abundant.
