1. Ocean acidification is causing increased predation on Mytilus californianus by specialist and generalist crabs

Creator:: Toner, Miranda M.
Abstract:: Ocean acidification is negatively impacting organisms that use calcium carbonate to form their shells. Increasing OA conditions are putting a strain on these calcareous animals by weakening their shells, thus causing them to become more vulnerable to predation. Worsening shell integrity may lead to a decline in hard-shelled prey populations...

2. Prionitis and herbivore interactions of Oregon’s rocky intertidal tidepools

Creator:: Patrick, Nicholas J. Jr.
Abstract:: The study related the density of herbivores to the length and density of Prionitis spp. in Oregon’s coastal tidepools. Oregon’s coastal rocky intertidal tidepools contain a variety of species interactions, including algal grazing by herbivores. The red branched algae Prionitis spp. is found throughout the rocky intertidal in the low...
