Do gray whales count calories? Comparing energetic values of gray whale prey across two different feeding grounds in the eastern North Pacific

Creator:: Hildebrand, Lisa, Bernard, Kim S., and Torres, Leigh G.
Abstract:: Predators must consume enough prey to support costly events, such as reproduction. Meeting high energetic requirements is particularly challenging for migrating baleen whales as their feeding seasons are typically restricted to a limited temporal window and marine prey are notoriously patchy. We assessed the energetic value of the six most...

The role of allochrony in influencing interspecific differences in foraging distribution during the non-breeding season between two congeneric crested penguin species

Creator:: Green, Cara-Paige, Ratcliffe, Norman, Mattern, Thomas, Thompson, David, Lea, Mary-Anne, Wotherspoon, Simon, Borboroglu, Pablo Garcia, Ellenberg, Ursula, Morrison, Kyle W., Pütz, Klemens, Sagar, Paul M., Seddon, Philip J., Torres, Leigh G., and Hindell, Mark A.
Abstract:: Mechanisms promoting coexistence between closely related species are fundamental for maintaining species diversity. Mechanisms of niche differentiation include allochrony which offsets the peak timing of resource utilisation between species. Many studies focus on spatial and temporal niche partitioning during the breeding season, few have investigated the role allochrony plays in...

Verification of Intraovum Transmission of a Microsporidium of Vertebrates: Pseudoloma neurophilia Infecting the Zebrafish, Danio rerio

Creator:: Sanders, Justin L., Watral, Virginia, Clarkson, Keri, and Kent, Michael L.
Abstract:: Direct transmission from parents to offspring, referred to as vertical transmission, occurs within essentially all major groups of pathogens. Several microsporidia (Phylum Microsporidia) that infect arthropods employ this mode of transmission, and various lines of evidence have suggested this might occur with certain fish microsporidia. The microsporidium, Pseudoloma neurophilia, is...

Community Responses to Climate-Related Variability and Disease: The Critical Importance of Long-Term Research

Creator:: Menge, Bruce A., Caselle, Jennifer E., Barth, John A., Blanchette, Carol A., Carr, Mark H., Chan, Francis, Gravem, Sarah, Gouhier, Tarik C., Lubchenco, Jane, McManus, Margaret A., Milligan, Kristen, Novak, Mark, Raimondi, Peter T., Washburn, Libe, and White, J. Wilson
Abstract:: A major goal of the Partnership for Interdisciplinary Studies of Coastal Oceans (PISCO) has been to understand the impacts of climate change and variability on the coastal ecosystems of the inner shelf of the California Current Large Marine System in particular, and other marine and even nonmarine systems more generally....

Larval development in the Pacific oyster and the impacts of ocean acidification : differential genetic effects in wild and domesticated stocks

Creator:: Durland, Evan, Pierre De Wit,, Meyer, Eli, and Langdon, Chris
Abstract:: The adaptive capacity of marine calcifiers to ocean acidification (OA) is a topic of great interest to evolutionary biologists and ecologists. Previous studies have provided evidence to suggest that larval resilience to high pCO2 seawater for these species is a trait with a genetic basis and variability in natural populations....

Ocean acidification stress index for shellfish (OASIS): Linking Pacific oyster larval survival and exposure to variable carbonate chemistry regimes

Creator:: Hales, Burke, Gimenez, Iria, and Waldbusser, George G.
Abstract:: Understanding larval bivalve responses to variable regimes of seawater carbonate chemistry requires realistic quantification of physiological stress. Based on a degree-day modeling approach, we developed a new metric, the ocean acidification stress index for shellfish (OASIS), for this purpose. OASIS integrates over the entire larval period the instantaneous stress associated...

Skin Deep: An Assessment of New Zealand Blue Whale Skin Condition

Creator:: Barlow, Dawn R., Pepper, Acacia L., and Torres, Leigh G.
Abstract:: Skin condition assessment of wildlife can provide insight into individual and population health. Yet, logistics can limit skin condition assessment of large whales. We developed a standardized, quantitative protocol using photographs to assess skin condition of blue whales in New Zealand, and demonstrate the value gained by testing hypotheses, documenting...

Patterns and Variation in Benthic Biodiversity in a Large Marine Ecosystem

Creator:: Piacenza, Susan E., Barner, Allison K., Benkwitt, Cassandra E., Boersma, Kate S., Cerny-Chipman, Elizabeth B., Ingeman, Kurt E., Kindinger, Tye L., Lee, Jonathan D., Lindsley, Amy J., Reimer, Jessica N., Rowe, Jennifer C., Shen, Chenchen, Thompson, Kevin A., Thurman, Lindsey L., and Heppell, Selina S.
Abstract:: While there is a persistent inverse relationship between latitude and species diversity across many taxa and ecosystems, deviations from this norm offer an opportunity to understand the conditions that contribute to large-scale diversity patterns. Marine systems, in particular, provide such an opportunity, as marine diversity does not always follow a...

Evaluating Temporal Consistency in Marine Biodiversity Hotspots

Creator:: Piacenza, Susan E., Thurman, Lindsey L., Barner, Allison K., Benkwitt, Cassandra E., Boersma, Kate S., Cerny-Chipman, Elizabeth B., Ingeman, Kurt E., Kindinger, Tye L., Lindsley, Amy J., Nelson, Jake, Reimer, Jessica N., Rowe, Jennifer C., Shen, Chenchen, Thompson, Kevin A., and Heppell, Selina S.
Abstract:: With the ongoing crisis of biodiversity loss and limited resources for conservation, the concept of biodiversity hotspots has been useful in determining conservation priority areas. However, there has been limited research into how temporal variability in biodiversity may influence conservation area prioritization. To address this information gap, we present an...

Drone Up! Quantifying Whale Behavior From a New Perspective Improves Observational Capacity

Creator:: Torres, Leigh G., Nieukirk, Sharon L., Lemos, Leila, and Chandler, Todd E.
Abstract:: During traditional boat-based surveys of marine megafauna, behavioral observations are typically limited to records of animal surfacings obtained from a horizontal perspective. Achieving an aerial perspective has been restricted to brief helicopter or airplane based observations that are costly, noisy, and risky. The emergence of commercial small unmanned aerial systems...
