Variability in mesoscale circulation and its effects on zooplankton distribution in the Northern California Current

Creator:

Keister, Julie Eileen

Abstract:

In eastern boundary current upwelling ecosystems, mesoscale circulation features such as eddies and upwelling filaments play a prominent role in the transfer of water and the associated plankton from the productive nearshore to the oligotrophic deep sea. The relationship between mesoscale circulation, zooplankton distributions, and the across-shelf transport of coastal...

Trophically transmitted parasites as ecosystem indicators : relationships among parasite community structure, juvenile salmon diet composition, and ocean conditions

Creator:

Losee, James P.

Abstract:

Recent research conducted throughout the Northern California Current (NCC) on the ecology of Pacific salmon (Oncorhynchus spp.) indicates that variable ocean conditions affect the community composition of zooplankton in the nearshore environment which, in turn, can affect the quality of prey for fish, sea birds and mammals. Interannual variability in...

Trophic dynamics of marine nekton and zooplankton in the Northern California Current ecosystem

Creator:

Miller, Todd William

Abstract:

The Northern California Current (NCC) ecosystem exhibits extreme seasonal, interannual and interdecadal shifts in the abiotic environment and shifts in primary and higher production. This variability is also apparent in the spatial structure of the ecosystem with nearshore-shelf waters (<150 m isobath) being highly productive and having a different community...

The ecology of ocean acidification : integrating the effects of pH variation among other environmental stressors on biogeography and organismal performance in rocky intertidal communities

Creator:

Rose, Jeremy M.

Abstract:

Ocean Acidification (OA) has emerged as a major threat to marine ecosystems, particularly regarding calcifying organisms. A growing body of literature describing laboratory investigations into pH stress indicates broadly deleterious effects for calcifiers, but responses vary greatly across taxa and can be influenced by variations in other environmental characteristics. Scaling...

Tags Versus Genetics : Identifying Which Tool Provides the Best Information about Chinook Salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) Distributions in the California Current

Creator:

Flaherty, Ryan James

Abstract:

The movement of Chinook salmon through space and time, across political boundaries, and through fisheries, creates one of the most complex marine resource management problems in the world. Information garnered from the recovery of coded-wire tags (CWTs) has been used since the 1970s to direct management decisions. Growing concern surrounding...

Structure and kinematics of the permanent oceanic front off the Oregon coast

Creator:

Collins, Curtis Allan

Abstract:

Using the hydrographic data collected by the ACONA from June 1961 to May 1963, the Oregon coastal front has been examined. Representative sigma-t surfaces were chosen to delineate the front, and changes in position of these surfaces with time were used to obtain zonal flow rates for the frontal and...

Numerical model investigations of wind-driven coastal circulation

Creator:

Cervantes, Brandy T.

Abstract:

The effects of wind forcing on coastal ocean circulation are studied using a numerical modeling approach. The first region of interest is on the North Carolina shelf, where the Coastal Ocean Processes (CoOP) Inner Shelf Study (ISS) took place during August - November 1994. ISS observations are used to initialize,...
