“…Of these factors, seawater temperature of the habitat has been regarded as the most important control on shell growth (e.g. Kennish 1980, Jones et al 1989, Goodwin et al 2001, Schöne et al 2002. Our study confirms that the duration of the shell growing season and the lunar day shell growth rate of Phacosoma japonicum in Tokyo Bay are primarily controlled by seawater temperature (Schöne et al 2003).…”

“…Only a few studies have made use of variable shell growth rates (sclerochronology) as proxies for environmental conditions such as daily water temperature (e.g. Schöne et al 2002Schöne et al , 2003Schöne et al , 2006. One of the main problems for the latter approach is that many different, complexly interacting environmental and physiological processes may exert control over shell growth rates.…”

This study examined the environmental factors controlling the daily shell deposition of the intertidal bivalve Phacosoma japonicum from Seto Inland Sea, west Japan, and Tokyo Bay, central Japan. Sclerochronological analyses of microgrowth patterns in marked-and-recovered specimens indicate that a pair of 2 etch-sensitive increments and 2 etch-resistant lines is formed every lunar day (duration 24.8 h). The accretionary pattern of the lunar day growth increments (LDGIs) reflects tidal cycles. Prominent growth lines were formed during spring tides, when the bivalves were subaerially exposed, and weak ones were deposited during neap tides, when they were continuously submerged. The bivalves stop secreting shell carbonate during winter and early spring. The time interval encompassed by the winter break in the specimens from Tokyo Bay lengthened as the shells grew older. Although seawater temperature is the main controlling factor for shell growth, a number of mutually related environmental factors such as salinity and food availability also affect shell growth. In Tokyo Bay, the broadest LDGIs were deposited between temperatures of 21 and 24°C. Our findings provide a basis for the interpretation of the temporal changes in shell microgrowth patterns in terms of environmental conditions of extant and fossil P. japonicum specimens.

AbstractThis research investigated how the carbon isotopic composition of food source ( 13 C food ) and dissolved inorganic carbon ( 13 C DIC ) influences the carbon isotopic composition of Pecten maximus shells ( 13 C shell ) under both experimental and natural conditions. The objectives are to better understand the relationship between P. maximus and its environment, and to specifically distinguish conditions under which calcification is influenced by respired CO 2 derived from food sources versus conditions in which calcification uses inorganic carbon from seawater. Laboratory experiment investigated carbon incorporation into shell carbonates by maintaining scallops under conditions where the stable carbon isotopic composition of food sources was considerably depleted (-54‰), relative to values observed in the natural environment (-21‰). Laboratory experiment ran for 78 days under three temperature conditions, 15°C, 21°C and 25°C. A survey of the environmental parameters and stable carbon isotopic composition into shell carbonate of natural population of P. maximus was also realized during the same year in the Bay of Brest, France. Data collected from both laboratory experiment and the natural environment confirmed that both  13 C DIC and  13 C food influence  13 C shell values and that organic carbon incorporation (C M ) averages about 10% (4.3 to 6.8% under experimental conditions and 1.9 to 16.6% in the natural environment). The shift in stable carbon isotopic composition from the uptake of depleted food sources under experimental conditions realized a marked divergence in the predicted equilibrium between calcium carbonate and 2 ambient bicarbonate, relative to the natural environment. This offset was 1.7 ± 0.6‰ for scallops in their natural environment and 2.5 ± 0.5 and 3.2 ± 0.9‰ for scallops under experimental conditions at water temperatures of 15 and 21°C, respectively. The offset of 3‰ for scallops subjected to laboratory experiment could not be explained in light of growth rate but may be related to food supply and/or temperature. Food source and temperature effects may also explain the annual variation observed in C M values measured from scallops in their natural environment. C M estimation from the natural population of P. maximus varied seasonally from around 2% at the end of winter, to 12% in summer. The seasonal variation resembles variability in the carbon isotopic composition of the food sources throughout the year with an exception at the end of winter.

“…Partitioning of oxygen isotopes between molluscan shells and seawater has historically been assumed to closely approximate in isotopic equilibrium (Witbaard et al, 1994;McConnaughey et al, 1997;Hickson et al, 1999;Schöne et al, 2002;Schöne, 2003). On the other hand more recently Owen et al (2002a, b) showed in a thorough laboratory study a positive deviation from equilibrium ( + 0.6x ) in Pecten maximus.…”

Population dynamics of the queen scallop, Aequipecten opercularis, was investigated in the western English Channel off Roscoff. Annual formation of natural growth rings on the shell surface was validated by stable isotope (y 18 O and y 13 C) analysis. A von Bertalanffy growth function (H t = 58.9 mm . (1Àe À 0.604.(t + 0.235) )) was fitted to size-at-age data of 249 individuals. Annual somatic and gonad production amounted to 19.74 kJ m À 2 and 0.98 kJ m À 2 y À 1 , respectively. Total mortality rate Z was estimated to be 1.716 y À 1 . Net growth efficiencies (ranging from 45% in 1-y-old to 11% in 6-y-old individuals) were in the same range as in other short-lived scallops. Individual growth, however, was distinctly slower in this population than in other A. opercularis populations from similar latitudes, most likely due to a more stressful environment. D
