This study aims to evaluate the life histories of tropic and temperate tunas by stable isotopic signature stored in otoliths. Stable 13C can reflect the diet of fishes, and stable 18O can record the environmental temperature. It can be another method to study tuna life history except for tagging or catch data analyzing.n this study, we first confirm the feasibility of stable isotope 13C and 18O stored in tuna otoliths, and then utilizing them to explain the Pacific bluefin tuna (PBF) life history, comparing the differences between tropic (PBF) and temperate (Yellowfin YFT and Bigeye BET) tunas. Profiles of 18O suggested a warm water period during the larval and juvenile stages, followed by water temperature decrease. Water temperature dramatically increased during the young stage then the values moderately fluctuated for the remaining life. This result suggested that hatched PBF stayed in tropical spawning ground, then transported by Kuroshio Current to temperate areas. PBF experienced cool water after detraining from the Kuroshio. The water temperature increased at the young stage may reflect the body temperature due to thermoregulation rather than the ambient water temperature. Supposing that PBF hatched in Japan sea, the high water temperate may represent the particular water mass rather than real water temperature. PBF experienced cool water after departing from Japan sea up to the open sea. BET and YFT show slow water temperature decrease and no apparent rising thereafter. This result indicates that BET and YFT reside in tropic areas, and reflect the different residing depth. Another aim is to set up the fingerprint of two Pacific bluefin spawning grounds (Kuroshio and Japan Sea) by 13C、18O and daily growth increments widths (DGI) in otoliths. The result show significant discrimination between two spawning grounds, and reveal the water mass mixing status.口試委員會審定書 謝 i文摘要 ii文摘要 iv錄 vi目錄 viii目錄 ix 前言 1 1.1 鮪魚生活史簡介 1 1.2 耳石研究 3 1.2.1 同位素之定義 3 1.2.2 同位素分餾 4 1.3 研究動機與目的 4 1.3.1 利用耳石穩定性碳氧同位素解析鮪魚生活史 4 1.3.2 以耳石穩定性碳氧同位素判定太平洋黑鮪的系群 4 材料與方法 7 2.1 耳石來源 7 2.1.1 耳石樣本處理 7 2.2 穩定性碳氧同位素分析 8 2.3 日齡判讀及輪寬比較 9 2.4 統計分析 9 實驗結果 10 3.1 穩定性碳氧同位素分析結果 10 3.1.1 熱帶性鮪魚(大目鮪及黃鰭鮪) 10 3.1.2 溫帶性鮪魚(太平洋黑鮪) 10 3.2 日齡判讀及輪寬比較 11 3.3 不同產卵場太平洋黑鮪幼魚耳石13C及18O 12 3.4 不同產卵場太平洋黑鮪幼魚耳石13C及18O判別分析結果 13 討論 14 4.1 鮪魚耳石13C、18O反映生活史及環境變化的可行性 14 4.2 利用耳石18O探討太平洋黑鮪生活史 15 4.3 熱帶性鮪魚(大目鮪及黃鰭鮪)及溫帶性鮪魚(太平洋黑鮪)之比較 17 4.4 太平洋黑鮪的系群判別 19 結論 22考文獻 23application/pdf3946165 bytesapplication/pdfen-US耳石穩定性碳氧同位素鮪魚生活史日輪寬產卵場otolithstable 13C and 18O isotopetuna life historyDGIspawning ground利用耳石穩定性碳氧同位素組成探討鮪魚之生活史Study of tuna life history by otolith stable carbon and oxygen isotope compositionthesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/181205/1/ntu-97-R95241218-1.pdf
