Foraging ecology, diving behavior, and migration patterns of harbor seals (Phoca vitulina richardii) from a glacial fjord in Alaska in relation to prey availability and oceanographic features

Creator:: Womble, Jamie N.
Abstract:: Understanding the movement behavior and foraging strategies of individuals across multiple spatial and temporal scales is essential not only for understanding the biological requirements of individuals but also for linking individual strategies to population level effects. Glacial fjords scattered throughout south-central and southeastern Alaska host some of the largest seasonal...

Plankton food web dynamics and larval fish success : influence of prey and predator distributions on larval fish diet, growth, and assemblages in the Straits of Florida

Creator:: Gleiber, Miram R.
Abstract:: Survival of marine fishes during their early life history stage is tightly related to prey availability and predation pressure. Yet, our understanding of how individual larvae to entire assemblages are constrained by these factors is limited. We integrated biological sampling of larval fishes with fine-scale in situ imaging to relate...

Drivers of Euphausiid Abundance and Biomass in the Kitimat Fjord System, BC Canada

Creator:: Qualls, Katelyn M.
Abstract:: Euphausiids are recognized as essential components of marine food webs throughout the world’s oceans due to their role as prey for many species including whales, seabirds, and commercial fishes. The Kitimat Fjord System is an important fisheries area and is the only fjord habitat on the British Columbia coast that...

Accounting for Transient Dynamics Improves use of Marine Protected Areas as a Reference Point for Fisheries Management

Creator:: Quennessen, Victoria I.
Abstract:: Fisheries management that is based on quantitative assessment has commonly relied on estimating the unfished biomass of a fished stock to compare current and historical population size. Developing predictive models for this requires many years of catch and abundance data. Smaller, new, or mainly recreational fisheries may not have the...

Statistical Properties and Guarantees for Certain Anomaly Detection Relevant Problems

Creator:: Liu, Si
Abstract:: Anomaly detection aims at detecting the points that appear different than the majority of the data, such that they are suspected to be generated from a different distribution. Anomaly detectors have been applied in many different fields, such as detecting fraudulent behaviors in bank transaction, finding broken sensors in a...

The Space Between: How We Understood, Valued, and Governed the Ocean Through the Process of Marine Science and Emerging Technologies

Creator:: Newton, Samantha
Abstract:: Ian Angell, in the New Barbarian Manifesto, said “A ‘brave new world’ is being forced upon unsuspecting societies by advances in information technology.” It would seem then, that technological advances happen automatically and have a life of their own. There is a logic to technological advancements that is outside human...

Influence of Novel Ocean Conditions on Life History Characteristics of a Nearshore Rockfish with Implications for Population Assessment and Management

Creator:: Rosemond, Rebecca C.
Abstract:: The California Current Large Marine Ecosystem (CCLME), located on the eastern boundary of the North Pacific Ocean, is highly dynamic, with variable conditions driven by seasonal upwelling, regional oceanography, and broad scale climate patterns. In the last decade, the northeast Pacific Ocean has experienced several marine heatwaves (MHWs), prolonged periods...

Provisioning, growth and survival of Adélie penguin chicks at Cape Crozier, Ross Island, Antarctica

Creator:: Jennings, Scott
Abstract:: Understanding the factors that contribute to or limit reproductive success is a fundamental objective of the field of ecology, providing insight into the ways ecosystems function and facilitating better management of natural resources. Behaviors that benefit offspring often increase costs to parents, and thus parents must adjust their level of...

Function of Oregon Estuaries to Juvenile Fishes, with Focus on Juvenile Rockfishes (Sebastes spp.) in Yaquina Bay, Oregon

Creator:: Schwartzkopf, Brittany D.
Abstract:: The role that anthropogenic and natural habitats in estuaries play in long-term population trends for Oregon’s nearshore marine fishes is poorly understood, in part due to limited temporal sampling. One important nearshore marine group is northeastern Pacific rockfishes (Sebastes spp.), which are highly diverse, with around 96 documented species, and...
