Linking predators to seasonality of upwelling: Using food web indicators and path analysis to infer trophic connections

Creator:

Thompson, Sarah Ann, Sydeman, William J., Santora, Jarrod A., Black, Bryan A., Suryan, Robert M., Calambokidis, John, Peterson, William T., and Bograd, Steven J.

Abstract:

Upwelling in eastern boundary current systems is a primary driver of ecosystem productivity. Typically, peak upwelling occurs during spring and summer, but winter upwelling may also be important to ecosystem functions. In this study, we investigated the hypothesis that winter and spring/summer upwelling, operating through indirect trophic interactions, are important...

Norman, Stephanie A., Huggins, Jessie, Carpenter, Tim E., Case, James T., Lambourn, Dyanna M., Rice, Jim, Calambokidis, John, Gaydos, Joseph K., Hanson, M. Bradley, Duffield, Deborah A., Dubpernell, Sandra, Berta, Susan, and Klope, Matt

Abstract:

In 2006–2007, an unusually high number of harbor porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) stranded along the Washington and Oregon coastlines. Spatiotemporal analyses were used to examine their ability to detect clusters of porpoise strandings during an unusual mortality event (UME) in the Pacific Northwest using stranding location data. Strandings were evaluated as...
