Oceanographic effects on the dynamics of food habits and growth condition of some groundfish species of the Pacific Northwest

Creator:

Lee, Yong Woo

Abstract:

Marine fish are subject to direct and indirect oceanographic variations operating at short and long time scales. In this study feeding habits and long-term growth condition of several groundfish species of the Pacific Northwest are examined to understand the relationship between variations in the fish's biological and life history components...

Surfgrasses (Phyllospadix spp.) as dynamic foundation species for macroinvertebrates along the Oregon coast

Creator:

Moulton, Orissa M.

Abstract:

Foundation species are important components of ecosystems because they provide habitat and ameliorate stressful conditions for residents. This thesis considers the role of surfgrasses (Phyllospadix spp.) as dynamic foundation species on the coast of Oregon in two studies. Chapter 2, which presents an observational survey of two Phyllospadix congeners, investigates...
