Errors in juvenile copepod growth rate estimates are widespread: problems with the Moult Rate method

Creator:

Hirst, A. G., Peterson, William T., and Rothery, P.

Abstract:

The Moult Rate (MR) method has been used widely to derive stage-specific growth rates in juvenile copepods. It is the most common field-based method. Unfortunately, the equation underlying the method is wrong and, consequently, large errors in juvenile growth rate estimates are widespread. The equation derives growth from the mean...

Climate shifts the interaction web of a marine plankton community

Creator:

Francis, Tessa B., Scheuerell, Mark D., Brodeur, Richard D., Levin, Phillip S., Ruzicka, James J., Tolimieri, Nick, and Peterson, William T.

Abstract:

Climatic effects in the ocean at the community level are poorly described, yet accurate predictions about ecosystem responses to changing environmental conditions rely on understanding biotic responses in a food-web context to support knowledge about direct biotic responses to the physical environment. Here we conduct time-series analyses with multivariate autoregressive...
