Defining quantitative stream disturbance gradients and the additive role of habitat variation to explain macroinvertebrate taxa richness

Creator:: Ligeiro, Raphael, Hughes, Robert M., Kaufmann, Philip R., Macedo, Diego R., Firmiano, Kele R., Ferreira, Wander R., Oliveira, Deborah, Melo, Adriano S., and Callisto, Marcos
Abstract:: Most studies dealing with the use of ecological indicators and other applied ecological research rely on some definition or concept of what constitutes least-, intermediate- and most-disturbed condition. Currently, most rigorous methodologies designed to define those conditions are suited to large spatial extents (nations, ecoregions) and many sites (hundreds to...

Abstract:: The rapid disruption of tropical forests probably imperils global biodiversity more than any other contemporary phenomenon¹⁻³. With deforestation advancing quickly, protected areas are increasingly becoming final refuges for threatened species and natural ecosystem processes. However, many protected areas in the tropics are themselves vulnerable to human encroachment and other environmental...

California condors in the Pacific Northwest : integrating history, molecular ecology, and spatial modeling for reintroduction planning

Creator:: D'Elia, Jesse
Abstract:: Reintroduction programs are increasingly being used to save animals from extinction and aid in their recovery. The California Condor (Gymnogyps californianus), one of the most endangered birds in the world, is a remarkable example of how reintroduction programs can help rapidly increase a species' population numbers and range following a...

Big fishery, big data, and little crabs: Using genomic methods to examine the seasonal recruitment patterns of early life stage Dungeness crab (Cancer magister) in the California Current Ecosystem

Creator:: Lee, Elizabeth M. J. and O'Malley, Kathleen G.
Abstract:: The California Current Ecosystem (CCE) is a dynamic marine ecosystem from which many socioeconomically important fisheries species are harvested. Here, a genotyping- by-sequencing (GBS) approach was used to examine genomic variation in an early life stage (megalopae) of the Dungeness crab (Cancer magister), which constitutes the most valuable single-species commercial...

Sex matters: Otolith shape and genomic variation in deacon rockfish (Sebastes diaconus)

Creator:: Vaux, Felix, Rasmuson, Leif K., Kautzi, Lisa A., Rankin, Polly S., Blume, Matthew T. O., Lawrence, Kelly A., Bohn, Sandra, and O'Malley, Kathleen G.
Abstract:: Little is known about intraspecific variation within the deacon rockfish (Sebastes di‐ aconus), a recently described species found in the northeast Pacific Ocean. We in‐ vestigated population structure among fish sampled from two nearshore reefs (Siletz Reef and Seal Rock) and one offshore site (Stonewall Bank) within a <50‐km2 area...

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...

Systematics, variation, distribution, and biology of lampreys of the genus Lampetra in Oregon

Creator:: Kan, Ting Tien
Abstract:: Based on the number of velar tentacles and the form of longitudinal lingual laminae found in Lampetra (Entosphenus) t. tridentata and its closely related forms, the taxon Entosphenus should not be considered as a genus as commonly adopted, but, along with the taxa Lethenteron and Lampetra, should be regarded as...

Stags of the Sea or Hedgehogs of the Harbor? Inferring the Point of Sculpin Cranial Weaponry

Creator:: Buser, Thaddaeus J.
Abstract:: Animal weapons are thought to have evolved to compete for reproductive opportunities within a species. Across the diverse weapon-bearing taxa, several evolutionary trends have emerged: (1) increasing complexity and relative size across ontogeny, (2) sexual dimorphism, and (3) higher levels of random deviations from symmetry (i.e., fluctuating asymmetry) than non-weaponized...

Rapid endangered species assessment : a novel approach to improve extinction risk assessments in poorly known species

Creator:: Bianchi, Carlos A.
Abstract:: The number of endangered species is rapidly increasing while paucity of adequate information and resources delays establishment of conservation actions. The IUCN’s listing system is insufficient to determine conservation priorities and many species lack information even to be evaluated (i.e., “data deficient”). Here I proposed and tested the Rapid Endangered...

Early development of the endocrine system in salmonids : regulation of sex differentiation and ontogeny of the stress response

Creator:: Floyd, Donald J.
Abstract:: Sex steroids, follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH) and gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) were measured in monosex and mixed sex populations of rainbow trout during early development. Steroids declined following fertilization, increased at hatch, then fell and remained constant thereafter. Trends toward differences in steroids between males and females...
