Atlantic Puffin (Fratercula arctica) Foraging Ecology During Marine Heatwave Conditions

Creator:: Kennerley, William L.
Abstract:: Marine heatwaves (“MHWs”) are discrete periods of anomalously warm ocean conditions that can lead to shifts in the distribution and abundance of marine organisms. Low-trophic level, pelagic forage species are frequently among those affected by MHWs, often resulting in considerable impacts upon their predators. In the North Atlantic Ocean, Atlantic...

The role of allochrony in influencing interspecific differences in foraging distribution during the non-breeding season between two congeneric crested penguin species

Creator:: Green, Cara-Paige, Ratcliffe, Norman, Mattern, Thomas, Thompson, David, Lea, Mary-Anne, Wotherspoon, Simon, Borboroglu, Pablo Garcia, Ellenberg, Ursula, Morrison, Kyle W., Pütz, Klemens, Sagar, Paul M., Seddon, Philip J., Torres, Leigh G., and Hindell, Mark A.
Abstract:: Mechanisms promoting coexistence between closely related species are fundamental for maintaining species diversity. Mechanisms of niche differentiation include allochrony which offsets the peak timing of resource utilisation between species. Many studies focus on spatial and temporal niche partitioning during the breeding season, few have investigated the role allochrony plays in...

Relationship between Ascarophis Sp. (Nematoda: Cystidicolidae), Sturgeon Feeding Pit Density and Ghost Shrimp Burrowing Behavior

Creator:: Brockman, Joseph N.
Abstract:: Bioturbation caused by ghost shrimp, Neotrypaea californiensis, burrowing activity can negatively affect Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas, aquaculture through their burial and subsequent suffocation. The shellfish aquaculture industry used chemicals to control burrowing shrimp populations in Washington State estuaries for decades, but, due to public and governmental scrutiny, that practice has...

A doubled down invasion of the northeast Pacific by the Asian mud shrimp, Upogebia major and its coevolved bopyrid isopod parasite, Orthione griffenis

Creator:: Chapman, John W., Li, Jingchun, McGowan, Michael F., Breitenstein, Ralph A., Appy, Ralph, Hieb, Kathryn A., Piotrowski, Christina N., and Elder, Leanne E.
Abstract:: Dramatic declines of the native northeast Pacific mud shrimp, Upogebia pugettensis over the last three decades have occurred in response to intense infestations by the Asian bopyrid isopod parasite, Orthione griffenis, that was introduced in the 1980s. We report herein the arrival of the Asian mud shrimp, Upogebia major, in...

Influence of Novel Ocean Conditions on Life History Characteristics of a Nearshore Rockfish with Implications for Population Assessment and Management

Creator:: Rosemond, Rebecca C.
Abstract:: The California Current Large Marine Ecosystem (CCLME), located on the eastern boundary of the North Pacific Ocean, is highly dynamic, with variable conditions driven by seasonal upwelling, regional oceanography, and broad scale climate patterns. In the last decade, the northeast Pacific Ocean has experienced several marine heatwaves (MHWs), prolonged periods...

Diving into Diversity: Fish Populations and Climate Resilience in an Endorheic Basin

Creator:: Dew, Aleah
Abstract:: The Goose Lake Basin, situated on the border of Oregon and California, USA, faces significant challenges from drought, wildfire, and other environmental stressors. This region hosts numerous endemic fish species such as the Goose Lake redband trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss newberri), Goose Lake lamprey (Entosphenus sp.), Goose Lake tui chub (Siphateles...

A Low-Volume Flow-Through System for Rearing Pacific Oyster (Crassostrea gigas) Larvae

Creator:: Fleener, Henry R.
Abstract:: Standard larval Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) rearing systems can be described as either static or continuous flow. While rearing oyster larvae in static cultures can be a low-cost and simple method, static systems require significant husbandry effort, floorspace and can produce highly variable results due to environmental variance among cultures....

Prespawning Mortality of Fall Creek Willamette Chinook Salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha): Evaluation of the Effects of a New Trap at the Adult Fish Collection Facility

Creator:: Carey, Katherine
Abstract:: Annual rates of prespawn mortality (PSM) in adult Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) trapped and transported upstream of dams in the Willamette River basin are high (often >40%) and could limit the ability to restore natural populations of spring Chinook salmon if not reduced. Improvements at the U.S. Army Corps of...

The Breeding Ecology and Foraging Niche of Aleutian Terns (Onychoprion aleuticus) in the Kodiak Archipelago, Alaska

Creator:: Tengeres, Jill E.
Abstract:: The Aleutian tern (Onychoprion aleuticus) is a species of high conservation concern in Alaska due to large declines at known breeding locations since the 1960s. Due to the small population size and ephemeral behavior of this species on the nesting grounds, there is little basic biological information available and data...

A Contingency-Based Evaluation for Beaver Restoration of Salmon Habitat in Oregon Coastal Streams

Creator:: Stevenson, John R.
Abstract:: Streams across the western United States are impaired from human alterations that have reduced freshwater habitat by simplifying channel complexity and disconnecting floodplains (Knox et al., 2022; Waples et al., 2008; Wohl, 2014). Climate change is likely to continue exacerbating these risks by warming summer surface stream temperatures (Crozier et...
