text: Genetic adaptation and phenotypic plasticity facilitate the migration into
new habitats and enable organisms to cope with a rapidly changing environment.
In contrast to genetic adaptation that spans multiple generations as an evolutionary
process, phenotypic plasticity allows acclimation within the life-time of an organism.
Genetic adaptation and phenotypic plasticity are usually studied in isolation,
however, only by including their interactive impact, we can understand acclimation
and adaptation in nature. We aimed to explore the contribution of adaptation and
plasticity in coping with an abiotic (salinity) and a biotic (Vibrio bacteria)
stressor using six different populations of the broad-nosed pipefish Syngnathus
typhle that originated from either high [14–17 Practical Salinity Unit (PSU)]
or low (7–11 PSU) saline environments along the German coastline of the Baltic
Sea. We exposed wild caught animals, to either high (15 PSU) or low (7 PSU) salinity,
representing native and novel salinity conditions and allowed animals to mate.
After male pregnancy, offspring was split and each half was exposed to one of
the two salinities and infected with Vibrio alginolyticus bacteria that were evolved
at either of the two salinities in a fully reciprocal design. We investigated
life-history traits of fathers and expression of 47 target genes in mothers and
offspring. Pregnant males originating from high salinity exposed to low salinity
were highly susceptible to opportunistic fungi infections resulting in decreased
offspring size and number. In contrast, no signs of fungal infection were identified
in fathers originating from low saline conditions suggesting that genetic adaptation
has the potential to overcome the challenges encountered at low salinity. Offspring
from parents with low saline origin survived better at low salinity suggesting
genetic adaptation to low salinity. In addition, gene expression analyses of juveniles
indicated patterns of local adaptation, trans-generational plasticity and developmental
plasticity. In conclusion, our study suggests that pipefish are locally adapted
to the low salinity in their environment, however, they are retaining phenotypic
plasticity, which allows them to also cope with ancestral salinity levels and
prevailing pathogens.

text: Climate change represents a major increase in uncertainty that water managers
and policy makers will need to integrate into water resources policy and management.
A certain level of uncertainty has always existed in water resources planning,
but the speed and intensity of changes in baseline conditions that climate change
embodies might require a shift in perspective. This article draws on both the
social and physical science results of the EU-FP7 ACQWA project to better understand
the challenges and opportunities for adaptation to climate change impacts on the
hydrology of the upper Rhone basin in the Canton Valais, Switzerland. It first
presents the results of hydro-climatic change projections downscaled to more temporally
and spatially-relevant frames of reference for decision makers. Then, it analyses
the current policy and legislative framework within which these changes will take
place, according to the policy coherence across different water-relevant frameworks
as well as the integration and mainstreaming of climate change. It compares the
current policy and legislative frameworks for different aspects of water resources
management to the projected impacts of climate change on the hydrology of the
upper Rhone basin, in order to examine the appropriateness of the current approach
for responding to a changing climatic context. Significant uncertainties pose
numerous challenges in the governance context. The study draws on adaptive governance
principles, to propose policy actions across different scales of governance to
better manage baseline variability as well as more ‘unpredictable’ uncertainty
from climate change impacts.
