Macondo-1 well oil-derived polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in mesozooplankton from the northern Gulf of Mexico

Creator:: Mitra, Siddhartha, Kimmel, David G., Snyder, Jessica, Scalise, Kimberly, McGlaughon, Benjamin D., Roman, Michael R., Jahn, Ginger L., Pierson, James J., Brandt, Stephen B., Montoya, Joseph P., Rosenbauer, Robert J., Lorenson, Thomas D., Wong, Florence L., and Campbell, Pamela L.
Abstract:: Mesozooplankton (>200 μm) collected in August and September of 2010 from the northern Gulf of Mexico show evidence of exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Multivariate statistical analysis revealed that distributions of PAHs extracted from mesozooplankton were related to the oil released from the ruptured British Petroleum Macondo-1 (M-1) well...

A cost-efficient method to assess carbon stocks in tropical peat soil

Creator:: Warren, M. W., Kauffman, J. B., Murdiyarso, D., Anshari, G., Hergoualc'h, K., Kurnianto, S., Purbopuspito, J., Gusmayanti, E., Afifudin, M., Rahajoe, J., Alhamd, L., Limin, S., and Iswandi, A.
Abstract:: Estimation of belowground carbon stocks in tropical wetland forests requires funding for laboratory analyses and suitable facilities, which are often lacking in developing nations where most tropical wetlands are found. It is therefore beneficial to develop simple analytical tools to assist belowground carbon estimation where financial and technical limitations are...

Harmful algal blooms along the North American west coast region: History, trends, causes, and impacts

Creator:: Lewitus, Alan J., Horner, Rita A., Caron, David A., Garcia-Mendoza, Ernesto, Hickey, Barbara M., Hunter, Matthew, Huppert, Daniel D., Kudela, Raphael M., Langlois, Gregg W., Largier, John L., Lessard, Evelyn J., RaLonde, Raymond, Rensel, J. E. Jack, Strutton, Peter G., Trainer, Vera L., and Tweddle, Jacqueline F.
Abstract:: Along the Pacific coast of North America, from Alaska to Mexico, harmful algal blooms (HABs) have caused losses to natural resources and coastal economies, and have resulted in human sicknesses and deaths for decades. Recent reports indicate a possible increase in their prevalence and impacts of these events on living...

Ecological effects of nitrogen and sulfur air pollution in the US: what do we know?

Creator:: Greaver, Tara L., Sullivan, Timothy J., Herrick, Jeffrey D., Barber, Mary C., Baron, Jill S., Cosby, Bernard J., Deerhake, Marion E., Dennis, Robin L., Dubois, Jean-Jacques B., Goodale, Christine L., Herlihy, Alan T., Lawrence, Gregory B., Liu, Lingli, Lynch, Jason A., and Novak, Kristopher J.
Abstract:: Four decades after the passage of the US Clean Air Act, air-quality standards are set to protect ecosystems from damage caused by gas-phase nitrogen (N) and sulfur (S) compounds, but not from the deposition of these air pollutants to land and water. Here, we synthesize recent scientific literature on the...

Site fidelity and colony dynamics of Caspian terns nesting at East Sand Island, Columbia River Estuary, Oregon, USA

Creator:: Collar, Stefanie
Abstract:: Fidelity to breeding sites in colonial birds is an adaptive trait thought to have evolved to enhance reproductive success by reducing search time for breeding habitat, allowing earlier nest initiation, facilitating mate retention, and reducing uncertainty of predator presence and food availability. Studying a seabird that has evolved relatively low...

Stress, osmoregulation, and the hormone cortisol in yearling coho salmon, Oncorhynchus kisutch

Creator:: Redding, Joseph Michael
Abstract:: Freshwater (FW) and seawater (SW) acclimated yearling coho salmon, Oncorhynchus kisutch, were subjected to severe confinement stress in FW, SW, or a medium (1/3 SW) that was approximately isosmotic to the fish's blood. Chronic stress caused osmotic imbalances in FW and SW, but not in 1/3 SW. In SW, blood...

Breeding and foraging ecology of Caspian terns nesting on artificial islands in the Upper Klamath Basin, California

Creator:: Patterson, Allison (Allison Glider)
Abstract:: Availability of suitable nesting habitat that is free of nest predators and provides access to adequate prey resources within commuting distance is a major factor limiting seabird populations. Caspian terns (Hydroprogne caspia) in western North America have shifted their breeding habitat from naturally occurring habitats in interior wetlands, lakes, and...

The role of body size in the foraging strategies and management of avian herbivores : a comparison of dusky Canada geese (Branta canadensis occidentalis) and cackling geese (B. hutchinsii minima) wintering in the Willamette Valley of Oregon

Creator:: Mini, Anne E.
Abstract:: Body size explains much of the interspecific variation in the physiology, behavior, and morphology of birds, such as metabolic rate, diet selection, intake rate, gut size, and bill size. Based on mass-specific metabolic requirements and relative energetic costs of activities, being a certain body size has both advantages and disadvantages....
