The case study used spotlight strip census routes to estimate Brown Hare numbers in a 793 ha hunting district. The habitats, dominated by intensively farmed arable land were also mapped. This is part of a Germany-wide long-term monitoring program of game populations which is carried out by hunters and was initiated by the German Hunters’ Association and the Hunters’ Association of Lower Saxony in 2001.

The use of substitute groups in biomonitoring programs has been proposed to minimize the high financial costs and time for samples processing. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the correlation between (i) the spatial distribution among the major zooplankton groups (cladocerans, copepods, rotifers, and testaceans protozoa), (ii) the data of density and presence/absence of species, and (iii) the data of species, genera, and families from samples collected in the Lago Grande do Curuai, Pará, Brazil. A total of 55 sample of the zooplanktonic community was collected, with 28 samples obtained in March and 27 in September, 2013. The agreement between the different sets of data was assessed using Mantel and Procrustes tests. Our results indicated high correlations between genus level and species level and high correlations between presence/absence of species and abundance, regardless of the seasonal period. These results suggest that zooplankton community could be incorporated in a long-term monitoring program at relatively low financial and time costs.

ABSTRACT In November 2005, approximately 1.9 million gallons of Group V slurry oil was released in the western Gulf of Mexico following the allision of the double-hulled tank barge DBL 152 with the submerged remains of a pipeline service platform that collapsed during Hurricane Rita. The released oil was denser than seawater and sank to the bottom. After approximately six weeks of intermittent cleanup using diver-direct pumping, submerged oil recovery operations were suspended by the Unified Command based on the high percentage (50%) of weather-related downtime, as well as indications that recoverable accumulations of oil were dispersing naturally, which further reduced the feasibility of cleanup. However, the responsible party was required to develop and implement a long-term monitoring program (LTMP) to track the fate and transport of the sunken oil and determine the potential need for resuming oil recovery operations once more favorable weather patterns returned in the spring. This paper will present an overview of the approach, methods and results of the long-term monitoring efforts performed over a 14-month period following the incident. Major objectives of the LTMP included tracking the movement and fate of non-recovered submerged oil to assess its extent and continued dispersion; providing advance warning of potential impacts to Gulf Coast shorelines and other sensitive areas; and documenting changes in the oil'S chemical composition and physical properties through time due to weathering processes. Major findings of the LTMP include the dissipation of the main submerged oil field over the course of several months and the discovery, differential behavior and eventual dissipation of a discrete high-concentration oil patch found several miles from the incident location. The importance of long-term monitoring data in the decision-making process to determine both the need for and feasibility of resuming submerged oil recovery operations will be emphasized. Information on the fate and transport characteristics of submerged oil and the adaptation of monitoring techniques to address evolving needs will also be addressed. Both the incident-specific information and the practical lessons-learned are intended to benefit those who may be faced with monitoring submerged oil spills in the future.
