Data from the Continuous Plankton Recorder (CPR) surveys in the Northwest Atlantic were examined to determine seasonal cycles and long­term trends. This report provides maps of abundance by year, month, and species. In addition, sub-regions are defined and the data analyzed for the presence of seasonal cycles and interannual variability. Particular attention is paid to three plankton categories: Phytoplankton colour index, Calanus stages I-IV, and Calanus stages V-VI, The seasonal cycle and long term trends of each of the species that have been consistently processed are in­cluded. The decline in phytoplankton and zooplankton seen in. the North­east Atlantic from the 1950's to 1979 is seen throughout the region for most species.

INTRODUCTION

The Continous Plankton Recorder (Hardy 1939), or CPR, is one of the most important methods for assessing long term biological changes in the ocean. The extensive data collected in the Northeast Atlantic have been analyzed in detail (Colebrook 1978, 1982, 1986). The purpose of this report is to examine the data from the Northwest Atlantic. We will determine if the long-term trends detected in the Northeast Atlantic are apparent in the Northwest.

Coverage of the Northwest Atlantic by the CPR began in 1959 and con­tinued until 1986. Coverage was renewed in 1991 with one transect through the region approximately once a month. Although the coverage in the North­west is not as extensive as it is in the Northeast , it still represents an enor­mous number of samples -..:. over 17000 samples west of 40°, each of which represents approximately 3 cubic meters of water filtered (Jossi and Goulet, 1993). This should be sufficient to detect long-term changes.

Colebrook (1978) reported negative trends in the principal component scores for phytoplankton and zooplankton over the north-east Atlantic and the North sea until 1979, when the trend reversed. Jossi and Goulet (1993) reported positive trends for Calanus jinmarchicus in the Gulf of Maine, but found no consistent trends in other copepod species.

The CPR has been used in long-term surveys in the North Atlantic since 1948 (Glover 1967) . The recorder is towed by merchant ships and weather ships along a number of standard routes. It travels at a nominal standard depth of about 10 m; the true average depth is 6.7± 1.7 m (Hays and Warner, 1993). Water is sampled through an aperture and suspended organisms are then trapped in a slowly moving band of silk. A sample is obtained from a section of the silk representing 18.5 km (10 nautical miles; represents 3m3

of water filtered) of towing which is examined microscopically to identify . and count the trapped organisms (Edinburgh , Oceanographic Laboratory,

1973) .

2

In a description of standard CPR data processing, Colebrook (1975, pp .126,128) noted that

Most organisms are identified at the level of species, some as varieties or sub-species, others at coarser levels such as genus •or family; some of the counts are summed to produce estimates of, for example, total copepods, and total phytoplankton is esti­mated from the green colour of the collecting silks.

These groupings are referred to as taxa (singular: taxon) throughout this report.

DATA AND METHODS

The data analyzed in this report extend from 1959 to 1992. For several reasons, the sampling was uneven on both spatial and temporal scales. These reasons include the very nature of the CPR survey, variation in shipping routes, and funding difficulties. In particular, there was little sampling in the Northwest Atlantic during the period 1979-1990. Sampling also tended to be sparse during the winter months .

In other reports (e.g. Edinburgh, Oceanographic Laboratory, 1973), the CPR counts were transformed logarithmically [y = 10glO(X + 1)], and geo­metric means were used. However, because of the arbitrary addition of 1 in the above transformation, the transformed abundance does not scale with the true abundance. In this report we avoid this potential difficulty by using the uri-transformed counts and arithmetic means.

Colebrook (1986) used principle component analysis to determine trends in abundance of a large number of species. We have not used such an exploratory analysis because our purpose is to test an a priori hypothesis: that the trends seen in species in the northwest Atlantic are also seen in the northeast Atlantic. •

3

Although over 300 different taxa were tabulatedin the CPR survey; we analyze only about 50 standard taxa. Many of the others are extremely rare and/or were tabulated irregularly. These standard taxa were taken (with some changes) from "A list of the species and other entities selected for routine annual data processing" (Table II, Colebrook 1975).

SEASONAL CYCLES

For a given taxon, let the the number of samples in year y and month m be n ym, and let the i-th observed count be Yymi. The mean count in month m is denoted Ym . That is,

- Lyi Y ym i Ym = . (1)

Lynym

The set of monthly means {YI , . . . , Y12 } is refered to as the seasonal cycle.

LONG-TERM TRENDS

Long- term trends in abundance were analyzed using a weighted least-squares regression. For each taxon in each sub-region, anomalies were obtained by subtracting the seasonal cycle from the observed counts. Let the the number of samples in year y and month m be n ym, and let the i-th observed count be Y ym i' The corresponding anomaly Aymi is given by

Aymi = Yymi - Y m. (2)

The mean anomaly for year y is then given by

- - Lmi AymiA y- . (3)

Lmnym

To aid in the interpretation of these anomalies, they were standardized by dividing by their standard deviations, i.e,

(4) II

4

. The standardized annual mean anomaly was modelled as a linear func­tion of year,

Sy = /.L + f3y + e (5)

where /.L is the overall mean, f3 is the regression coefficient for year, and e is a noise term; with weights given by the number of samples in each year, i.e.

• W y = l:nym. (6)

m

The sign of f3 gives the direction of long-term change in abundance, and the corresponding t-statistic gives the significance of the trend.

Weighted regressions as described above were performed for all of the standard taxa in all of the standard sub-regions for the range of years with the most concentrated sampling, 1959-1978 (Table 1).

To test the hypothesis that the long-term trend has been negative, one ­sided p-values may be combined across k regions or taxa using Fisher's method (Fisher 1954).

Since the p-values from the regressions relate to the test of the null hypothesis that f3 = 0 versus the alternative hypothesis that f3 -# 0 (i.e. a two-sided test), the p-values must first be transformed so as to represent the test with alternative hypothesis that f3 < 0 (i.e. a one-sided test). Therefore

. _ { ~Ptwo-sided if f3 < 0 (7) Pone-sided - 1 - lp . if f3 > 0 2 two-sided ­

The one-sided p-values may now be combined using Fisher's method (Fisher 1954). We compute

(8)

which has, as null distribution, X2 with 2k degrees of freedom. Thus a combined p-value is readily obtained.

GEOGRAPHICAL SUB-REGIONS DEFINED FOR THE ANALYSIS

Several geographical sub-regions were defined for the analysis presented here • (Fig. 1). Sub-regions on the continental shelf were based on the divisions

defined by theNorthwest Atlantic Fisheries Organization (NAFO). However, unlike the NAFO divisions, the sub-regions were truncated so as not to extend beyond the shelf. Several offshore sub-regions were also defined ; their extent and locations were determined in part by the density of sampling (Fig. 1).

RESULTS

CPR sampling of the Northwest Atlantic was uneven and often sparse (Fig. 1, Fig. 4). A number of regions were not sampled, in particular those outside of commercial shipping lanes. Sampling was most intense during the mid to late 1960 's.

Observed seasonal cycles vary considerably between sub-regions and species (Fig. 2 and 5). Some cycles exhibit single peaks (e.g. Thalassiosira spp in sub-region 3K), while others show multiple peaks (e.g. Thalassiosira spp. in sub-region 3K, Calanus V-VI in sub-region 3Ps). The seasonal cy­cles of Phytoplankton colour index, Calanus stages I-IV, and Calanus stages V-VI vary considerably between regions (Fig. 4). There is also evidence of interannual variability (Fig. 5).

SEASONAL CYLES

Phytoplankton

The variability in the seasonal cycle of phytoplankton can three categories:

be broken into

(1) A single sharp spring peak with a smaller fall peak. This is the most common pattern observed. (2) A single broad peak with a maximum in the spring. This pattern is seen in the tidally mixed 4X region. It is also seen in the tidal regions of the North Sea (Gieskes and Kraay 1977, Colebrook 1982a). (3) A strong double peak in which the fall peak is as large or larger than the spring peak. This is seen in 2J and 3K, and possibly in OS3 and 5Y.

The spring peak is nearly always dominated by diatoms, and the sum­mer minimum and fall peak are usually dominated by dinoflagelates. An exception to this pattern is seen in the Northern shelf regions, 2J and 3K, where the fall peak appears to be composed mainly of diatoms. Note the strong fall bloom of the genus Thalassiosirsa in the northern shelf region, i.e. 2J and 3L.

LONG-TERM TRENDS

Phytoplankton

in all regions. 083 shows a nominally significant increase (p=0.005). The colour index has been very high in the 90's in most regions.

When all diatoms are combined, i.e. individual diatom species counts are summed, there is a negative trend in most shelf regions. The combined significance test for a general decrease in diatoms for the shelf regions is very strong. There is virtually no trend in the offshore regions. The increase in ocean colour in 083 is not reflected in the diatoms.

The diatom Skeletoneina costatum shows a negative trend in all shelf regions except 31. The trend is very significant overall when the shelf regions are combined .

The diatom Thalassiosirsa decreases in all regions with the exception of 4X; again the trend is significant when combined. There are a few years that appear to be exceptional, e.g. an increase in 1991 in 31.

The diatom Dactyliosolen mediterraneus is generally too sparse to exam­ine trends in most regions; however, there appears to be a general decrease in the offshelf regions.

Diatoms of the genus Rhizosolenia do not show any strong trends that are consistent in all regions. However, there is a general decrease.

Diatoms of the genus Chaetoceros generally show a decrease over the period in most regions, but with a return to average or above average con­ditions in recent years.

The diatoms Thalassiothrix longissima, Thalassionema nitzchioides, Nitzschia seriate, Navicula planamembranacea show negative trends overall.

Eight dinoflagelates of the genus Ceratium were consistently sampled. This genus is seen mainly during the summer and fall. There appear to be relatively few strong long term trends in these series although most of the

8

slopes are negative.

There are patterns that are not readily explainable. There was an in­crease in phytoplankton colour in OS3 from 1963 to 1973, and yet most of the individual plankton species for the region decreased during this period in OS3. It is unclear how to interpret this increase in colour. It may be .. that the increase is caused by species that are not normally identified in the CPR analysis.

Zooplankton

Total copepods show a negative trend in all of the shelf sub-regions except the northern sub-region 2J. There is also a strong negative trend in OS3 . The negative trend in total copepods is caused by a decrease in the common genera of Pseudocalanus, Paracalanus and Temora . The copepod Pseudo­calanus elongatus shows a negative trend in all regions except 2J; the trend is statistically significant in two regions. A similar trend is seen in the earier stages, the combined genus Pseudocalanus and Paracalanus, in which the two genera cannot be separated.

Temora longicornis has a significantly negative decrease overall, and sep­arately in 3L, 3Ps, and 4V.

The copepod Calanus finmarchicus shows a negative trend in the north­ern regions, a slight positive trend in the south, and no major trends in between. None of these trends are statistically significant.

No consistent trends were seen in the copepods Centropages typicus, Euchaeta norvegica, Metridia lucens, and Acartia.

Species of the copepod genera, Pleuromamma, Neocalanus, Rhinocalanus, and Candacia appear to have decreased in each of the off shelf regions during the 1960's and 70's.

9

Euphausiacea appears to have declined in the north (2J, 3K, 3L, LSI) and shows no other consistent trends except perhaps an increase in 3N) during the 1979's.

• The cladocean genera, Podon and Evadne decreased in most regions; however, these changes were small.

The amphipod family, Hyperiidea, the pelagic gastropod, Clione limacina, and Chaetognatha's shows no long term trend that is consistent over a wide geographic region.

DISCUSSION

LONG TERM TRENDS

Many patterns of long-term variability in plankton are detectable across the North Atlantic. It appears that the plankton part of the ecosystem may be responding to large-scale changes in the environment. Diatoms have decreased in the North Sea and the northeast Atlantic from approximately the mid 1960's to the mid 1980's, with an increase in recent years (Reid et al. 1990). This basic pattern is also seen in the Northwest Atlantic where the major diatom species, e.g. Thalassiosirsa and Chaetoceros, have decreased.

The dinofiagelates of the genus Ceratium show little relationship with the patterns in the diatoms in the northeast Atlantic, and do not show the long-term decline. This is also consistent with our results for the northwest Atlantic.

Phytoplankton colour shows little evidence for long-term trends in the northeast Atlantic except for an increase in the southern North sea (Reid et al. 1990). This again is consistent with our results. We had little evidence of trends except for OS3, which is south of Flemish Cap. In the North Sea

10

the changing ratio of "colour" to diatoms is caused by a relative increase in phytoplankton groups that contribute to the colouration of the silk but

. are not recorded in the CPR analysis (e.g. microflagellates, small or fragile diatoms, Gieskes and Kraay 1977).

Colebrook has analyzed temporal trends in zooplankton in the North­east Altantic and North Sea in a long series of papers (Colebrook 1986). In general, he finds a decrease until approximately 1980, and then an in­crease. Our analysis clearly shows that the decrease in total copepods in the North Sea and northeast Atlantic is also seen in the northwest Atlantic (Table 1). The total copepod count is dominated in most shelf regions by Pseudocalanus and Paracalanus. These species show the largest declines in both the Northwest and the Northeast (Colebrook 1982) of any copepod. Jossi and Goulet (1993) found no trend in Pseudocalanus for the Gulf of Maine and southern Nova Scotia shelf. In these southern regions (4X and 5Y) our trends were not statistically significant and appeared to have no trend in the overlapping period; thus, our results are not inconsistent with theirs.

The copepod Calanus finmarchicus shows strong negative trends in the North sea (Colebrook 1985), positive trends in the Gulf of Maine and south­ern Nova Scotia shelf Jossi and Goulet (1993) . There was no consistent trend or significant trends in our study region .

The decline in total copepods is not seen for the copepod genus A cartia either in the North sea (Colebrook 1985) or the Northwest Atlantic.

Colebrook (1985) found a negative trend in the amphipod family, Hyper­iidea, Euphausiacea and in the North Sea and Northwest Atlantic, whereas we find no significant trends in the Northwest Atlantic expect for a negative trends in the offshore region for Euphausiacea and a positive trend for Eu­phausiacea in 3NO and 3Ps, and a positive trend in 3Ps for Cha etognathas.

MECHANISMS

The mechanisms responsi ble for these trends are far .from clear. The trends in the northeast Atlantic appear to be correlated with "westerly weather" over Britain (Colebrook 1986)or "North winds" (Dickson et al. 1988). Nei­ther correlation is fully satisfactory. The relationship with westerly weather has high coherence only at low frequencies, where there are inherently few degrees of freedom. If the correlation is caused by a simple causal relation­ship we would expect the coherence to exist at all frequencies below the annual period. There has been no link with the observations of ocean struc­ture that would allow us to reject any of the proposed mechanisms. Fur­thermore, neither explanation accounts for the observation that the CPR estimation of ocean colour, which is correlated with chlorophyl (Hays and Lindley 1994), has not decreased. Thus, any mechanism that explains the decline in diatoms must also explain why other phytoplankters have not declined.

For example, Dickson et al. (1988) suggested the main mechanism con­trolling plankton abundance is the degree of stratification that controls the timing of the spring bloom. This mechanism requires several "tight" link­ages between weather, nutrients, diatoms, and zooplankton. First, wind­stress must control the degree of spring stratification. Second, the degree of spring stratification must control the spring bloom of diatoms. Third, the spring bloom of diatoms must control the production of several species of zooplankton.

The Colebrook (1986) theory offers a different hypothesis: that the di­atom bloom is controlled by the zooplankton abundance. That is, Colebrook suggests a top-down control of the ecosystem as....opposed to bottom-up con­trol. He suggest that the key mechanism that controls zooplankton abun­dance is the survival of the overwintering population.

There are several questions that remain unanswered about the trends seen in the CPR data set. Mann (1993) has argued that the interannual variability in survival of young marine fish is controlled primarily through the food chain. If this is so, the long-term trends seen in the CPR data

should be reflected in fish production; however, no such firm links -have yet been established (Brander 1992).

Table 1. Scaled slop es of weighted regressions of standardized annual mean anomaly versus year (1959-1978) by region and taxon. The slopes were scaled by a factor of 1000; thus a scaled slope gives the change in abun­dance in thousandth 's of a standard deviation per year. ('"significant that slope = a at p < 0.1; **significant th at slope = a at p < 0.05 ; **'"significant that slope = a at p < 0.01) Also: combined signifi­cance levels for the hypothesis that the slope is > a by taxon for shelf sub-regions (2J, 3K, 31, 3NO, 3Ps, 4V, 4W, 4X, and 5Y), offshelf sub-regions (1S1, OS2, and OS3), and for all sub-regions. Not e that the combined significance tests use one-sided p-values, whereas the individual signifi cance tests are two-sided .

Figures

Figure 1. Sub-regions used in the analysis. The sub-regions on the conti­nental shelf are named after the corresponding NAFO divisions; note, .. however, that unlike the NAFO regions, they do not extend beyond the shelf. Three "offshelf" sub-regions were also defined: LSI (Labrador Sea), OS2 (Offshelf 2), and OS3 (Offshelf 3). Overplotted are loca­tions of CPR samples in the Northwest Atlantic from 1959 to 1992. Each dot represents the centre of a 10-mile tow section . Note the concentrated sampling along standard routes.

Figure 2. Seasonal cycles (over all years) for selected taxa in each sub­region . Each figure consists of 9 panels, each of which represents a particular taxon; the name of the taxon is given above the panel. In each panel, monthly means are connected by a solid line . The standard error of each mean is represented by pointwise error bars.

Figure 3. Average plankton abundance anomalies (observed counts minus monthly means) for each year and month, for given sub-region and taxon. 'T he title gives the sub-region and taxon. Expanding symbols represent the magnitude of the anomalies: the anomaly is proportional to the area of the symbol. Shaded circles represent positive anomalies; open circles represent negative anomalies. The scaling is given below the figure (in terms of the largest observation). Zero's are represented by crosses (+ ).

Figure 4. Monthly maps of CPR sampling and plankton abundance for Phytoplankton colour index, and Calanus stages V-VI. The title of each page indicates the year and taxon. In each map, expanding circles represent the abundance of the taxon in the sample. The scaling for each taxon is constant between maps: the area of the circle is propor­tional to the observed count, with the largest observation represented by a circle with ~-inch diameter. For Phytoplankton colour index the largest observation is 6.5. For Calanus stages V-VI the largest obser­vation is 2690. Samples in which there was no observation of the taxon in question are denoted by a cross (+).

Figure 5. Seasonal cycles (1st page) and yearly anomalies (2nd page) for selected taxa in each sub-region. Each seasonal cycle page consists of 12 panels, each of which represents a sub-region and shows the monthly mean count and associated standard error. Each yearly anomalies page consists of 12 vertically stacked plots, each showing annual departures from the seasonal cycle in each region. On the right hand side of each plot is the mean of the seasonal cycle and the name of the sub-region . Note that all of these plots have self-scaled ordinates.
