Descripción
This is the OBIS extraction of the Ocean Tracking Network and Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) Greenland Arctic Charr, consisting of the release tagging metadata, i.e. the location and date when the tagged animal was released, and summarized detection events of tagged individuals. If readers are interested in the source dataset they may also inquire with the project PIs as listed here or on the OTN web site (https://members.oceantrack.org/project?ccode=V2LGAC2).
Abstract:The Arctic charr is a partial migratory species, where some individuals migrate to sea every summer for feeding, while others remain in freshwater their entire life. Since migration is an adaptive response to particular conditions, environmental changes will potentially alter the selective pressures on movement behavior. The changes may also interfere with, or disrupt, a species’ ability to migrate. In either case, environmental changes could lead to the reduction or total loss of a migration with harmful impacts on fish populations. Yet we have little understanding of when to expect these outcomes to occur. Climatic changes are most pronounced in Arctic and subarctic areas, where increases in temperature and precipitation exceed global averages, resulting in changes to the annual growth period . The changes increase favorable temperatures for growth, but stratification in marine fjords may reduce productivity and limit food and hence prolong the marine feeding migration. Hence, it can be expected that changes in migratory phenologies and behavior may be among the first observed response to climate change. Especially, retreating glaciers will initially increase inflow of freshwaters to fjords due to increased melting, but later then the glacier is gone, freshwater run off will be reduced. Consequently, climate change may significantly have an impact on the marine ecosystem used by Arctic during their feeding migration. A recent study from three watercourses in South-western Greenland suggested that the local populations of Arctic charr consisted of a mixture of trophic groups; one group of marine specialists, an estuarine group that may have short and local marine migrations, and two resident morphs from the freshwater habitats. Hence there is a clear potential for a rapid adaptation by the species to changed climatic conditions although the mix of trophic groups may change. To reveal if changed climate may affect migratory behavior and trophic niche use, we will combine acoustic telemetry, physiological sampling techniques, sampling for stable isotopes (SIA) and genomics to examine charr populations in two neighboring fjord systems in Southwestern Greenland. One of the sites receives influx from glacial runoff whereas the other does not. The aim is to quantify variation in migratory tactics and the extent of marine habitat use of anadromous Arctic charr between the two ecologically very different fjord systems, and link distributions to important environmental variables like temperature, salinity and marine productivity. The current lack of knowledge regarding migratory tendencies makes it impossible for resource managers to ensure that different migratory behaviour types are protected, thus ensuring a portfolio of migration strategies are present within a given river system to deal with impending climate change. Knowledge from sites with limited other anthropogenic impacts will be crucial in providing this understanding.

| Descripción del área de estudio | No study area description for this project was provided to OTN for publication. |
| Descripción del diseño | A wide range of aquatic species are tagged with small electronic transmitters, surgically implanted or attached externally, which can operate for up to 20 years. Acoustic receivers arranged in line on the ocean floor as well as attached to buoys, gliders and large animals (e.g. grey seals) pick up the coded acoustic signals from these tags identifying each tagged sea creature that passes within half a kilometer of the receiver. Data collected by these listening stations are subsequently uploaded to one of many compatible data nodes, adding to the reach of an intercompatible network of networks designed and maintained by the Ocean Tracking Network, producing current and reliable records for every part of the globe. Certain classes of electronic tags and listening equipment (receivers) may also be outfitted or co-located with sensors to measure the ocean's temperature, depth, salinity, currents, chemistry, and other properties. |

| Control de Calidad | OTN species names are verified using the World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS). If species names on new data cannot be verified against (a) known valid names in OTN, and/or (b) WoRMs the Data Provider will be notified so they can check they are correct. Names that cannot be placed after checking with WoRMS are, where possible, placed on the basis of other authoritative sources, such as the Fishbase or ITIS; and once completely verified a request will be sent to WoRMS for addition of the verified species name. http://members.oceantrack.org/data/discovery/byspecies |
