McCarthy, Maurice M.

Abstract:

The objective of this thesis is to show that by separating the two major anthropogenic changes caused in riverine input to the north shore of the Black Sea, it is possible to describe distinct linkages between ongoing ecological changes in the Black Sea, and 1) flow reduction, and 2) nutrient...

Dietary responses of marine predators to variable oceanographic conditions in the Northern California Current

Creator:

Gladics, Amanda J.
