Influence of varying upper ocean stratification on coastal near-inertial currents

Creator:: Kim, Sung Yong, Kurapov, Alexander L., and Kosro, P. Michael
Abstract:: The influence of varying horizontal and vertical stratification in the upper layer ( inline image m) associated with riverine waters and seasonal atmospheric fluxes on coastal near-inertial currents is investigated with remotely sensed and in situ observations of surface and subsurface currents and realistic numerical model outputs off the coast...

Nutritional stress affects corticosterone deposition in feathers of Caspian tern chicks

Creator:: Patterson, Allison G. L., Kitaysky, Alexander S., Lyons, Donald E., and Roby, Daniel D.
Abstract:: Stressful environmental conditions affect the adrenocortical function of developing animals, which can have consequences for their fitness. Discovery of the avian stress hormone corticosterone (CORT) in feathers has the potential to broaden the application of endocrine research in ecological and evolutionary studies of wild birds by providing a long-term measure...

Assessing the Value and Role of Seafood Traceability from an Entire Value-Chain Perspective

Creator:: Sterling, Brian, Gooch, Martin, Dent, Benjamin, Marenick, Nicole, Miller, Alexander, and Sylvia, Gilbert
Abstract:: The traceability practices and systems of 48 separate seafood businesses were assessed as part of an evaluation of 9 global seafood value chains (from catch to point of sale to the consumer). The purpose was to gain insights and provide knowledge about the impact of traceability on improving seafood industry...

What influences the worldwide genetic structure of sperm whales (Physeter macrocephalus)?

Creator:: Alexander, Alana, Steel, Debbie, Hoekzema, Kendra, Mesnick, Sarah L., Engelhaupt, Daniel, Kerr, Iain, Payne, Roger, and Baker, C. Scott
Abstract:: The interplay of natural selection and genetic drift, influenced by geographic isolation, mating systems and population size, determines patterns of genetic diversity within species. The sperm whale provides an interesting example of a long-lived species with few geographic barriers to dispersal. Worldwide mtDNA diversity is relatively low, but highly structured...

Genome sequencing provides insight into the reproductive biology, nutritional mode and ploidy of the fern pathogen Mixia osmundae

Creator:: Toome, Merje, Ohm, Robin A., Riley, Robert W., James, Timothy Y., Lazarus, Katherine L., Henrissat, Bernard, Albu, Sebastian, Boyd, Alexander, Chow, Julianna, Clum, Alicia, Heller, Gregory, Lipzen, Anna, Nolan, Matt, Sandor, Laura, Zvenigorodsky, Natasha, Grigoriev, Igor V., Spatafora, Joseph W., and Aime, M. Catherine
Abstract:: Mixia osmundae (Basidiomycota, Pucciniomycotina) represents a monotypic class containing an unusual fern pathogen with incompletely understood biology. We sequenced and analyzed the genome of M. osmundae, focusing on genes that may provide some insight into its mode of pathogenicity and reproductive biology. Mixia osmundae has the smallest plant pathogenic basidiomycete...

The beetle tree of life reveals that Coleoptera survived end-Permian mass extinction to diversify during the Cretaceous terrestrial revolution

Creator:: Mckenna, Duane D., Wild, Alexander L., Kanda, Kojun, Bellamy, Charles L., Beutel, Rolf G., Caterino, Michael S., Farnum, Charles W., Hawks, David C., Ivie, Michael A., Jameson, Mary Liz, Leschen, Richard A. B., Marvaldi, Adriana E., McHugh, Joseph V., Newton, Alfred F., Robertson, James A., Thayer, Margaret K., Whiting, Michael F., Lawrence, John F., S´lipin´ski, Adam, Maddison, David R., and Farrell, Brian D.
Abstract:: Here we present a phylogeny of beetles (Insecta: Coleoptera) based on DNA sequence data from eight nuclear genes, including six single-copy nuclear protein-coding genes, for 367 species representing 172 of 183 extant families. Our results refine existing knowledge of relationships among major groups of beetles. Strepsiptera was confirmed as sister...

The role of pre-event canopy storage in throughfall and stemflow by using isotopic tracers

Creator:: Allen, S. T., Brooks, J. R., Keim, R. F., Bond, B. J., and McDonnell, J. J.
Abstract:: Stable isotopes can be a valuable tool for tracing the redistribution, storage, and evaporation of water associated with canopy interception of rainfall. Isotopic differences between throughfall and rainfall have been attributed to three mechanisms: evaporative fractionation, isotopic exchange with ambient vapor, and temporal redistribution. We demonstrate the potential importance of...

Predicting landscape sensitivity to present and future floods in the Pacific Northwest, USA

Creator:: Safeeq, Mohammad, Grant, Gordon E., Lewis, Sarah L., and Staab, Brian
Abstract:: Floods are the most frequent natural disaster, causing more loss of life and property than any other in the USA. Floods also strongly influence the structure and function of watersheds, stream channels, and aquatic ecosystems. The Pacific Northwest is particularly vulnerable to climatically driven changes in flood frequency and magnitude,...

Contrasting distribution patterns of invasive and naturalized non-native species along environmental gradients in a semi-arid montane ecosystem

Creator:: Andersen, Kelly M., Naylor, Bridgett J., Endress, Bryan A., and Parks, Catherine G.
Abstract:: Questions: Mountain systems have high abiotic heterogeneity over local spatial scales, offering natural experiments for examining plant species invasions. We ask whether functional groupings explain non-native species spread into native vegetation and up elevation gradients.We examine whether non-native species distribution patterns are related to environmental variables after controlling for elevation...

Diurnal timing of warmer air under climate change affects magnitude, timing and duration of stream temperature change

Creator:: Diabat, Mousa, Haggerty, Roy, and Wondzell, Steven M.
Abstract:: Stream temperature will be subject to changes because of atmospheric warming in the future. We investigated the effects of the diurnal timing of air temperature changes – daytime warming versus nighttime warming – on stream temperature. Using the physically based model, Heat Source, we performed a sensitivity analysis of summer...
