Open WL Archief (OWA)

Over het archief

Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.

Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

Abstract

Specimens of the deep-sea benthic shrimp Nematocarcinus gracilis were collected from 900 m to 1000 m in the Arabian Sea, close to where the permanent oxygen minimum zone meets the sea floor. Lipid profiles, encompassing total lipid, lipid class and fatty acid composition, were compared with previously reported crustacean lipid assays and provided an insight into the life history of the species. The major storage lipid in N. gracilis was triglyceride, supporting the supposition that this species exists in benthic regions. Neutral lipid levels were commensurate with N. gracilis being an opportunistic feeder. Fatty acid composition was typical of an organism with a diet based on an ultimately photosynthetic source of organic carbon, but also reflected the reduction in the availability of labile organic carbon (in the case of lipid, highly unsaturated fatty acids) in the deep sea.
