PREFACE (the text was condensed)
Animals are a major link between the water column (pelagic)and the
bottom (benthic) habitats in most shallow systems. This coupling is
dominated by active processes such as suspension-feeding in which the
organism actively uses energy to pump water that is then filtered to remove
suspended particles that are consumed while undigested remains are deposited
on the bottom. As a result of this feeding on and metabolism of particles, the
animals excrete dissolved inorganic and organic waste back into the water
column, and thus, become major components in the cycling and feedback of
essential elements. With relatively high weight specific filtration rates of 1–
10 liters/hour/gram dry tissue and a propensity to form large aggregated
populations (beds, reefs, schools and swarms), these organisms can play an
important role in regulating water column processes
Although estuarine bivalve molluscs such as oysters and mussels
dominate the suspension-feeder literature, other groups including plankton and
nekton that are found in estuarine as well as other aquatic systems are also
potentially important removers of suspended particles. Thus, a significant part
of the Advanced Research Workshop focused on suspension-feeders as
controllers of plankton abundance, biomass and diversity, system metabolism,
nutrient cycling and scale dependency.
Systems dominated by suspension-feeders are typically impacted by
human activities including recreation, aquaculture, human and industrial
pollution, and bilge water from shipping. Suspension-feeders are often
impacted by fisheries and over-exploitation. These impacts commonly result
in changes in ecosystem structure either through the foodchain concentration
of harmful substances or diseases, the introduction of alien species of
suspension-feeders, or the instabilityof suspension-feeders systems through
species displacement or phase shifts in the dominance between different
suspension-feeding components such as nekton or zooplankton. These issues
were addressed near the close of the workshop along with conclusions and
syntheses developed by the working groups.
In the almost 10 years interest in suspension-feeders as
major influences on aquatic ecosystem processes has grown dramatically.
This development is particularly evident in freshwater systems, yet the
communications between the freshwater and the estuarine-marine scientific
communities are weak (probably because of scientific, societal and funding
agency structure and habitat separation). Thus, one of our major goals was to
balance process orientated topics with presentations from the three general
aquatic environments, freshwater, estuarine and marine. Our workshop proposal is timely and compliments
xi
new approach involving partner countries. In addition to
chronicling the current status of suspension-feeder research, we believe that
this workshop has and will foster greater communications between the various
groups and support the cross-fertilisation strategy has been shown to have a
strong positive effect on the generation of new scientific approaches, theories
and knowledge.
