Environmental controls over carbon exchange of three forest ecosystems in eastern China - GUI‐RUI YU; LEI‐MING ZHANG; XIAO‐MIN SUN; YU‐LING FU; XUE‐FA WEN; QIU‐FENG WANG; SHENG‐GONG LI; CHUAN‐YOU REN; XIA SONG; YUN‐FEN LIU; SHI‐JIE HAN; JUN‐HUA YAN (Global Change Biology, 2008)
Net ecosystem productivity (NEP) was continuously measured using the eddy covariance (EC) technique from 2003 to 2005 at three forest sites of ChinaFLUX. The forests include Changbaishan temperate mixed forest (CBS), Qianyanzhou subtropical coniferous plantation (QYZ), and Dinghushan subtropical evergreen broad‐leaved forest (DHS). They span wide ranges of temperature and precipitation and are influenced by the eastern Asian monsoon climate to varying extent. In this study, we estimated ecosystem respiration (RE) and gross ecosystem productivity (GEP). Comparison of ecosystem carbon exchange among the three forests shows that RE was mainly determined by temperature, with the forest at CBS exhibiting the highest temperature sensitivity among the three ecosystems. The RE was highly dependent on GEP across the three forests, and the ratio of RE to GEP decreased along the North–South Transect of Eastern China (NSTEC) (i.e. from the CBS to the DHS), with an average of 0.77 ± 0.06. Daily GEP was mainly influenced by temperature at CBS, whereas photosynthetic photon flux density was the dominant factor affecting the daily GEP at both QYZ and DHS. Temperature mainly determined the pattern of the interannual variations of ecosystem carbon exchange at CBS. However, water availability primarily controlled the interannual variations of ecosystem carbon exchange at QYZ. At DHS, NEP attained the highest values at the beginning of the dry seasons (autumn) rather than the rainy seasons (summer), probably because insufficient radiation and frequent fog during the rainy seasons hindered canopy photosynthesis. All the three forest ecosystems acted as a carbon sink from 2003 to 2005. The annual average values of NEP at CBS, QYZ, and DHS were 259 ± 19, 354 ± 34, and 434 ± 66 g C m −2 yr −1 , respectively. The slope of NEP that decreased with increasing latitude along the NSTEC was markedly different from that observed on the forest transect in the European continent. Long‐term flux measurements over more forest ecosystems along the NSTEC will further help verify such a difference between the European forest transect and the NSTEC and provide insights into the responses of ecosystem carbon exchange to climate change in China.

Environmental preferences of longlining for yellowfin tuna ( Thunnus albacares ) in the tropical high seas of the Indian Ocean - LI MING SONG; YU ZHANG; LIU XIONG XU; WEN XIN JIANG; JIA QIAO WANG (Fisheries Oceanography, 2008)
A survey of yellowfin tuna, Thunnus albacares , fishing ground was carried out on board of the Chinese longliners from September 15 to December 12, 2005 in the tropical high seas of the Indian Ocean. The depth at which each yellowfin tuna was hooked was estimated using a stepwise regression analysis of theoretical hook depth and observed average hook depth measured using a temperature depth recorder. Water temperature, salinity, chlorophyll a , dissolved oxygen and thermocline, which are important variables influencing yellowfin tuna habitats, were measured in the survey. Catch rates of yellowfin tuna were then analyzed with respect to depth, temperature, salinity, chlorophyll a , dissolved oxygen and thermocline. We suggest that the optimum ranges of swimming depth, water temperature, chlorophyll a and dissolved oxygen concentration for yellowfin tuna are 100.0–179.9 m, 15.0–17.9°C, 0.090–0.099 μ g L −1 , 2.50–2.99 mg L −1 , respectively; that salinity has less influence on the vertical distribution of adult yellowfin tuna; and that yellowfin tuna are mainly distributed within the thermocline in the high seas of the Indian Ocean. Our results match the yellowfin tuna’s vulnerability to deep longline fishing gear well.

Geostatistical approaches and optimal additional sampling schemes for spatial patterns and future sampling of bird diversity - Yu‐Pin Lin; Ming‐Sheng Yeh; Dong‐Po Deng; Yung‐Chieh Wang (Global Ecology and Biogeography, 2008)
Aim To evaluate geostatistical approaches, namely kriging, co‐kriging and geostatistical simulation, and to develop an optimal sampling design for mapping the spatial patterns of bird diversity, estimating their spatial autocorrelations and selecting additional samples of bird diversity in a 2450 km 2 basin. Location Taiwan. Methods Kriging, co‐kriging and simulated annealing are applied to estimate and simulate the spatial patterns of bird diversity. In addition, kriging and co‐kriging with a genetic algorithm are used to optimally select further samples to improve the kriging and co‐kriging estimations. The association between bird diversity and elevation, and bird diversity and land cover, is analysed with estimated and simulated maps. Results The Simpson index correlates spatially with the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) within the micro‐scale and the macro‐scale in the study basin, but the Shannon diversity index only correlates spatially with NDVI within the micro‐scale. Co‐kriging and simulated annealing simulation accurately simulate the statistical and spatial patterns of bird diversity. The mean estimated diversity and the simulated diversity increase with elevation and decrease with increasing urbanization. The proposed optimal sampling approach selects 43 additional sampling sites with a high spatial estimation variance in bird diversity. Main conclusions Small‐scale variations dominate the total spatial variation of the observed diversity due to a lack of spatial information and insufficient sampling. However, simulations of bird diversity consistently capture the sampling statistics and spatial patterns of the observed bird diversity. The data thus accumulated can be used to understand the spatial patterns of bird diversity associated with different types of land cover and elevation, and to optimize sample selection. Co‐kriging combined with a genetic algorithm yields additional optimal sampling sites, which can be used to augment existing sampling points in future studies of bird diversity.

Mass movements caused by recent tectonic activity: The 1999 Chi‐chi earthquake in central Taiwan - Wen‐Neng Wang; Huei‐Long Wu; Hiroyuki Nakamura; Shang‐Chih Wu; Shoung Ouyang; Ming‐Fang Yu (Island Arc, 2003)
The Chi‐chi earthquake ( M S = 7.7), which occurred in September 1999, seriously damaged central Taiwan. Approximately 2 years later (July 2001), the Toraji typhoon brought a heavy rainstorm (650 mm rain/day) and triggered widespread landslides in central Taiwan and parts of eastern Taiwan. Approximately 10 000 Chi‐chi earthquake‐induced landslides and 6000 Toraji typhoon‐related mass movements were delineated in an area of 2400 km 2 using Satellite Pour l’Observation de la Terre (SPOT; French earth resource satellite) images. The landslide distribution could be closely related to the distribution of peak ground acceleration registered during the Chi‐chi earthquake. The study area was composed of Tertiary sedimentary and metamorphic rocks, whose age and induration increased eastward. The earthquake‐induced landslides were mostly distributed in the region between the Chelungpu Fault and the Lishan Fault to the east, whereas they were few in the region east of the Lishan Fault. The Toraji typhoon in 2001 severely damaged both regions that had been shattered by the Chi‐chi earthquake in 1999. The occurrence of earthquake‐induced landslides can be correlated with epicentral distance, and their occurrence has more influence from the rock type than from the ground motion.

Influence of glaciation on divergence patterns of the endemic minnow, Zacco pachycephalus , in Taiwan - Hurng‐Yi Wang; Mung‐Pei Tsai; Ming‐Jenn Yu; Sin‐Che Lee (Molecular Ecology, 1999)
The genetic subdivision of the endemic minnow, Zacco pachycephalus , in 12 rivers of Taiwan was studied by allozyme electrophoresis. Among 26 loci surveyed, six were significantly differentiated among sites. Allozyme genotype frequencies within samples accord with Hardy–Weinberg expectations. A highly divergent genetic structure among sites ( F ST = 0.497) with low genetic variability within samples ( H = 0.006–0.062, mean = 0.03) suggests that local populations originated from a small number of founders. upgma and Fitch trees derived from Nei’s genetic distance and hierarchical analysis of F ST values reveal that samples of Z. pachycephalus can be divided into northern, middle, and southern subgroups and that most genetic variation (87%) is distributed among rather than within groups. It is proposed that there were two isolated refugia during the most recent glacial period, and that populations of the southern group (Group I) originated from a southern refugium in Taiwan below the boundary of the Kaoping River, and other groups (Group II), including northern and middle subgroups, originated from a refugium located on the extinct landbridge between Taiwan and mainland China. The postglacial division between northern and middle subgroups may be due to hydrological differences between these two regions.

Fluctuation in abundance of larval anchovy and environmental conditions in coastal waters off south‐western Taiwan as associated with the El Niño–Southern Oscillation - CHU‐FA TSAI; PEI‐YU CHEN; CHANG‐PO CHEN; MING‐ANNE LEE; GUANG‐YAW SHIAH; KUO‐TIEN LEE (Fisheries Oceanography, 1998)
Monthly abundance ( CPUE ) of larval anchovy in the coastal waters off south‐western Taiwan from 1980 to 1992 (156 months) fluctuated at intervals corresponding to the 4.3‐ and 2.2‐year cycles of the southern oscillation index ( SOI ). Also, CPUE was significantly correlated with sea surface temperature with a time lag of 3 months and nearly significantly to river flow with a time lag of 4 months, which in turn correlated with SOI at lags of 13–14 months (cross‐correlation and transfer function analyses). The results suggested the presence of linkage between recruitment of the larvae and ENSO episodes, perhaps through oceanographic and meteorological conditions that affect coastal upwelling and river discharge. The Kuroshio Current, which is the western extension of the North Equatorial Current, may be one of the important mechanisms of ENSO's teleconnections affecting local climate and fisheries in the western Pacific region.
