Effects of Elevated CO₂ on Speckled Sanddab (Citharichthys stigmaeus) Behavior

Creator:

Andrade, Jessica F.

Abstract:

The direct and indirect effects of ocean acidification (OA) are a growing concern, particularly in areas already experiencing elevated levels of oceanic CO₂. Studies with marine fishes suggest that elevated CO₂ levels may affect behavior by interfering with an important brain neurotransmitter. Studies examining the effects of OA fish behavior...

Ecology of the northern subpopulation of northern anchovy (Engraulis mordax) in the California Current large marine ecosystem

Creator:

Litz, Marisa N. C.

Abstract:

Northern anchovy (Engraulis mordax) are a dominant forage fish in the California Current large marine ecosystem (CCLME). However, little is known about northern anchovy abundance, distribution, age structure, or population fluctuations relative to ocean conditions in the eastern boundary upwelling system off the U.S. West Coast. This thesis includes three...

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...
