“…Furthermore, a constant assimilation efficiency (85%-95%) on diets offered to feeding trials indicates a temperature-independent assimilation activity [36]. In S. subcrenata, the regulation of the SFG and K2 values was attained by adaptive adjustments of the physiological processes that determine the energy budget over a wide temperature range, summarizing the thermal impact on energy balance.…”

“…Despite some advantages to identify the relationship between fitness and SFG, seasonal measurements of physiological energetics only provided the limited information on probable sources of temporal variation [36]. The present study aimed to examine the physiological adjustment processes of S. subcrenata to optimize energy balance under a wide thermal range.…”

Background: Clams inhabiting temperate coastal zones are affected not only by seasonal thermal variation, but also by changes in the prevailing thermal regime of their habitats. Understanding the physiological processes required for adjusting the energy balance of the ark shell Scapharca subcrenata to varying thermal conditions is pivotal for predicting its growth and further phenology, and ultimately promoting successful aquaculture activity. Thermal effects on the physiological processes and the combined energetic physiology at the organism level of S. subcrenata were assessed over a temperature range corresponding to field conditions (3–28 °C). Results: Physiological rates of S. subcrenata were well correlated with its dry tissue weight, formalizing allometric relationships. Extremely low weight exponent values for filtration rate and metabolic rate were detected at lower (3–8 °C) compared to higher (8–28 °C) temperatures. In addition to marked reductions at 3 °C, weight exponents were identical and intercept estimates increased progressively with rising temperature over the temperature range (8–28 °C). Identical weight exponents and increasing intercept estimates for both feces production and excretion rates across the experimental temperatures indicated that energy losses by egestion and excretion increased gradually with rising temperature. Scope for growth and net growth efficiency showed relatively constant and positive values at 8–23 °C, suggesting an optimal temperature range for production, but dropped drastically to negative values at 3 and 28 °C, indicating thermal (both cold and heat) stress. The Q10 values revealed that the metabolic and filtration rates are more sensitive at 23–28 and 3–8 °C, respectively. Conclusions: Allometric size-scaling of physiological rates in S. subcrenata highlights species-specific responses to changes in temperature. The observed weight exponents and intercept estimates for filtration and metabolic rates reveal the variation of the thermal effects according to size as well as an incapability of acclimation to varying temperatures. Reversed thermal sensitivities in both components confirm that energy acquisition by feeding does not offset the metabolic energy cost outside the optimal thermal range. Our empirical analysis allowed further understanding of the seasonal energy dynamism and biological cycle of S. subcrenata in temperate habitats subject to highly variable thermal regimes.

To understand the geochemical characteristics of intertidal sediment in a semi-enclosed bay, we measured various geochemical parameters, including grain size, ignition loss (IL), chemical oxygen demand (COD), acid volatile sulfide (AVS), and trace metals (Al, Fe, Cu, Pb, Zn, Cd, Hg, and As), in intertidal sediment from three bays (Deukryang Bay, Yeoja Bay, and Gamak Bay) in the southern region of Jeollanam Province. The intertidal sediment in Deukryang Bay consisted of various sedimentary types, such as sand, gravelly muddy sand, mud, and silt, whereas the intertidal sediments in Yeoja and Gamak Bays were composed mainly of mud. The concentrations of IL, COD, AVS and trace metals in the intertidal sediments of the three study regions were relatively high near areas affected by input of stream waters and/or shellfish farming waste. The concentrations of organic matter and trace metals in Gamak Bay were much higher than those in Deukryang and Yeoja Bays, which appears to be due to the influence of anthropogenic pollutants, originating from the city and the industrial complex near Gamak Bay. The evaluation results of organic matter and metal pollution using the sediment quality guidelines showed that the intertidal sediments in the three study regions were not polluted in terms of organic matter and trace metals. In future, sustainable management for sources of organic matter and trace metal is necessary to conserve a healthy benthic ecosystem in intertidal sediments.

“…In addition, probabilistic estimates of the rates allow comparisons of physiological performance in different thermal conditions. Conversely, because seasonal variation in the endogenous factors of organisms (e.g., growth, reproductive conditions, and energy-reserve levels) influence their physiological processes, seasonal measurements may provide a more realistic indication of the relationship between growth performance and a combination of physiological processes (Newell and Bayne, 1980;Iglesias and Navarro, 1991;Ibarrola et al, 2008;Shin et al, 2011).…”

Knowledge of physiological responses of important shellfish species to rising temperatures is crucial in assessing the impacts of climate change on marine aquaculture production. The physiological components of energy balance that support growth performance were measured seasonally at different exposure temperatures in the ark clams (Anadara kagoshimensis) cultured in the shallow muddy bottom sediment in Yeoja Bay, Korea. We tested the effects of winter minimum (3–8°C) and summer maximum (23–28°C) temperature elevations on individual physiological processes (ingestion, respiration, egestion, and excretion) and the combined energetic physiology (scope for growth [SFG] and net growth efficiency [K2] measures). The seasonal cycle of dry flesh tissue weight (DW) was also investigated from January 2016 to November 2018, to compare its variation at contrasting cold vs. warm regimes. The rates of physiological components were related to DW, generating significant allometric equations. The weight exponents of the equations for ingestion rate and respiration rate were low at the winter minimum compared with the remaining season temperatures, indicating a higher thermal sensitivity in larger individuals. The physiological rates that were re-calculated for individual components based on estimates of the slope and intercept of the equations increased with increasing temperature, revealing an incapability of thermal acclimation and a temperature effect at seasonally different endogenous conditions. The thermal sensitivity (Q10) of the ingestion rate and respiration rate was reversed between the winter minimum and the summer maximum temperature elevations, yielding negative SFG and K2 values at 3 and 28°C. Furthermore, the interannual difference in the seasonal cycle of clam DW displayed variations in the period of increment prior to spawning and the post-spawning loss/recovery in association with its energy balance status in the winter and summer temperature conditions. Overall, these results indicate that warming is projected to affect physiological performance and the seasonal DW cycle of clams in different manners between winter and summer: physiological benefits and advanced weight gain vs. heat stress and progressive weight loss, respectively. The mechanistic adjustment of the clam energy balance across thermal conditions seems to explain the recent advancement in its seasonal biological cycle, as well as the failure in spat collection and the mass summer mortality observed at this culturing site.
