Marine Team is a student effort to examine spatial and temporal variation of fish species within Yaquina Bay. Marine Team was developed at OSU as a seminar course with a field sampling component, to help students of marine ecology get “hands on” experience with data collection and analysis. We set...
During the 2008 and 2009 breeding seasons of murres Uria spp., we combined visual observations of these predators with active acoustics (sonar), fish trawls, zooplankton net tows, and hydrographic measurements in the area surrounding breeding colonies in the southeastern Bering Sea. We acoustically detected thousands of bubble trails that were...
We hypothesized that changes in southeastern Bering Sea foraging conditions for black-legged kittiwakes (Rissa tridactyla)
have caused shifts in habitat use with direct implications for population trends. To test this, we compared at-sea
distribution, breeding performance, and nutritional stress of kittiwakes in three years (2008–2010) at two sites in the...
