Community Responses to Climate-Related Variability and Disease: The Critical Importance of Long-Term Research

Creator:: Menge, Bruce A., Caselle, Jennifer E., Barth, John A., Blanchette, Carol A., Carr, Mark H., Chan, Francis, Gravem, Sarah, Gouhier, Tarik C., Lubchenco, Jane, McManus, Margaret A., Milligan, Kristen, Novak, Mark, Raimondi, Peter T., Washburn, Libe, and White, J. Wilson
Abstract:: A major goal of the Partnership for Interdisciplinary Studies of Coastal Oceans (PISCO) has been to understand the impacts of climate change and variability on the coastal ecosystems of the inner shelf of the California Current Large Marine System in particular, and other marine and even nonmarine systems more generally....

Marine Protected Area Networks: Assessing Whether the Whole Is Greater than the Sum of Its Parts

Creator:: Grorud-Colvert, Kirsten, Claudet, Joachim, Tissot, Brian N., Caselle, Jennifer, E., Carr, Mark H., Day, Jon C., Friedlander, Alan M., Lester, Sarah E., Lison de Loma, Thierry, Malone, Daniel, and Walsh, William J.
Abstract:: Anthropogenic impacts are increasingly affecting the world’s oceans. Networks of marine protected areas (MPAs) provide an option for increasing the ecological and economic benefits often provided by single MPAs. It is vital to empirically assess the effects of MPA networks and to prioritize the monitoring data necessary to explain those...

Virola dominicana sp. nov., (Myristicaceae) from Dominican amber

Creator:: Poinar, George, Jr. and Steeves, Royce
Abstract:: The Myristicaceae is a member of the early diverging angiosperm order Magnoliales, however the family is poorly represented by fossil collections. We describe Virola dominicana sp. nov. (Myristicaceae), the first record of fossilized Myristicaceae flowers, from mid-Tertiary (45-15 mya) Dominican amber. The description is based on 24 male flowers in...

Patterns of macrophyte wrack deposition on sandy beaches of the Pacific Northwest coast, U.S.A.

Creator:: Reimer, Jessica N.
Abstract:: Dislodged macroalgae and seagrasses, also known as marine wrack, frequently wash into coastal ecosystems from the ocean and are potentially important ecological resources for biological communities. These!nutrient and organic matter subsidies may be especially important on sandy beaches, where little in situ primary productivity exists for higher trophic levels. To...

The ecology of ocean acidification : integrating the effects of pH variation among other environmental stressors on biogeography and organismal performance in rocky intertidal communities

Creator:: Rose, Jeremy M.
Abstract:: Ocean Acidification (OA) has emerged as a major threat to marine ecosystems, particularly regarding calcifying organisms. A growing body of literature describing laboratory investigations into pH stress indicates broadly deleterious effects for calcifiers, but responses vary greatly across taxa and can be influenced by variations in other environmental characteristics. Scaling...

So Long and Thanks for All the Sponge: Cryptic Intertidal Communities, Consequences of Ocean Acidification, and New Directions for Science Education

Creator:: Rickborn, Alissa J.
Abstract:: The current generation of scientists will be asked to mitigate climate change, stall biodiversity loss, and protect ecological communities. These are tasks that require a knowledge of both ecological and social systems to be undertaken successfully. Therefore, my dissertation spans the fields of community ecology and social sciences in an...

Investigating variation in immunity and infection risk in wild ungulates

Creator:: Dugovich, Brian S.
Abstract:: In the midst of the sixth mass extinction, understanding wildlife disease spillover is critical to maintaining protected wildlife areas. Studying ecoimmunology and wildlife disease ecology helps to understand immune and disease traits in an ecological context, which is invaluable in preventing pathogen spillover between livestock and wildlife. To investigate this...

Stage-structured interactions and their consequences across levels of biological organization

Creator:: Segui, Leah Mupas
Abstract:: A central challenge for ecology is to understand the dynamic nature of species interactions. A classic approach to community ecology assumes that individuals within a species are functionally identical and that consumer-resource dynamics can be predicted solely by using species abundances. However, one species can consist of multiple functional groups,...

Changing Climate, Changing Contexts : Variation in Rocky Intertidal Predator-prey Interactions Seen Through an Environmental Stress Framework

Creator:: Cerny-Chipman, Elizabeth B.
Abstract:: The multifaceted role of the environment in regulating the structure and dynamics of biological communities has long fascinated ecologists and motivated much debate and research. Now, in a time of accelerated global changes due to human impacts, the need to understand how the environment shapes communities has gained new urgency....

An Integrated Approach to Gauge the Effects of Global Climate Change on Headwater Stream Ecosystems

Creator:: Bury, Gwendolynn W.
Abstract:: Climate change is predicted to affect ecosystems, including systems already stressed by human impacts. One ecosystem that is already highly impacted by human land use is the cold headwater stream system of the Pacific Northwest. One method of assessing the function of an ecosystem is by using an indicator species....
