An Integrated Approach to the Investigation of Age, Growth and Population Dynamics of Burrowing Thalassinidean Shrimps in a U.S. West Coast Estuary

Creator:

Bosley, Katelyn Marie

Abstract:

Two indigenous species of burrowing shrimp inhabit and often dominate the intertidal zone of estuaries along the US West Coast, the ghost shrimp, Neotrypaea californiensis, and the blue mud shrimp, Upogebia pugettensis. Both species are considered ecosystem engineers and play a role in maintaining estuarine health and ecosystem function. They...

Use of extractable lipofuscin as an age biomarker to determine age structure of ghost shrimp (Neotrypaea californiensis) populations in west coast estuaries

Creator:

Cassidy, Katelyn M.

Abstract:

Determining age in crustaceans is inherently imprecise because they molt periodically and do not retain hard structures throughout their lifespan. Morphological measurements, such as carapace length, are often used to estimate age because methods for direct ageing do not exist. However, variability in individual growth rate and molt frequency can...
