Rocky intertidal oceanography: an association between community structure and nearshore phytoplankton concentration

Creator:: Menge, Bruce A., Daley, Bryon A., Wheeler, Patricia A., and Strub, P. Ted
Abstract:: On Oregon coastal rocky shores, filter‐feeders were relatively abundant and macrophytes were relatively scarce at Strawberry Hill, whereas opposite abundance patterns occurred at Boiler Bay. To determine whether nearshore oceanographic differences were associated with these patterns, we made shore‐based measurements of nutrient and Chl a concentrations. We used a three‐level...

Evolutionary and ecological interactions affecting seaweeds

Creator:: Olson, Annette M.
Abstract:: The term "interaction" in evolutionary biology and ecology describes the relationships among variables in two classes of causal models. In the first, "interaction" refers to the influence of a single putatively causal variable on a variable of interest. In the second class of models, the term applies when a third...

A histochemical study of oogenesis in the sea urchin, Strogylocentrotus purpuratus

Creator:: Chatlynne, Louise Geller
Abstract:: Oögenesis in the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus purpuratus was studied by histological methods and by histochemical techniques for polysaccharides, lipids, and nucleic acids Urchins were collected at Yaquina Head, Oregon at regular intervals between April 1966 and March 1967. An attempt was made to correlate seasonal variations in the coastal water...

Osmotic and ionic regulation in the Dungeness crab, Cancer magister (Dana)

Creator:: Alspach, George Samuel, Jr.
Abstract:: Osmotic and ionic regulation was studied in the Dungeness crab, Cancer magister, after acute exposure to a range of five salinities from 25% to 125% sea water (100% = 32%). Blood, urine and muscle tissue were sampled at 24 and 48 hours after exposure. Analyses were made of blood and...

Chemical cues and the molecular basis of olfactory chemoreception in caudate amphibians

Creator:: Kiemnec, Karen M.
Abstract:: Chemoreception is one of the dominant sensory modalities for many species of salamanders (reviewed in Chapter 2). At least seven of the ten currently recognized salamander families are known to respond to some sort of chemical cue. These responses are as varied as delaying hatching, seeking refuge, or initiating aggressive...

Ecological physiology of the larvel brine fly Ephydra (Hydropyrus) hians, and alkaline-salt lake inhabiting Ephyrid (Diptera)

Creator:: Herbst, David B.
Abstract:: Dipterans of the family Ephydridae (shore and brine flies) are well known for their ability to tolerate and thrive in a wide variety of physically harsh circumstances. The immature stages of one such species of this family, Ephydra hians, are characteristically limited in distribution as benthic inhabitants of highly alkaline...

Reproductive strategies of the Ocoee salamander, Desmognathus ocoee

Creator:: Adams, Erika M.
Abstract:: The majority of female animals are polyandrous: offspring within a single reproductive event are sired by more than one male. However, we lack a clear understanding of the ultimate causes of polyandry, and of the male reproductive strategies which have evolved in response to selection occurring after insemination. I addressed...

Activation, modification and suppression of sex pheromone production in garter snakes

Creator:: Parker, M. Rockwell
Abstract:: Vertebrates communicate with one another and coordinate intraspecific reproduction by using a variety of sexually dimorphic signals, such as plumage, ornaments, sounds, and/or scents. These sexual dimorphisms are maintained by physiological factors, typically sex-specific hormones (though see Chapter 3 for an exception). The purpose of the research in this dissertation...
