Dynamics of coastal meta-ecosystems: the intermittent upwelling hypothesis and a test in rocky intertidal regions

Creator:: Menge, Bruce A. and Menge, Duncan N. L.
Abstract:: The intermittent upwelling hypothesis (IUH) predicts that the strength of ecological subsidies, organismal growth responses, and species interactions will vary unimodally along a gradient of upwelling from persistent downwelling to persistent upwelling, with maximal levels at an intermediate or ‘‘intermittent’’ state of upwelling. To test this model, we employed the...

Are large macroalgal blooms necessarily bad? nutrient impacts on seagrass in upwelling-influenced estuaries

Creator:: Hessing-Lewis, Margot L., Hacker, Sally D., Menge, Bruce A., McConville, Sea-oh, and Henderson, Jeremy
Abstract:: Knowledge of nutrient pathways and their resulting ecological interactions can alleviate numerous environmental problems associated with nutrient increases in both natural and managed systems. Although not unique, coastal systems are particularly prone to complex ecological interactions resulting from nutrient inputs from both the land and sea. Nutrient inputs to coastal...

Rocky intertidal oceanography: an association between community structure and nearshore phytoplankton concentration

Creator:: Menge, Bruce A., Daley, Bryon A., Wheeler, Patricia A., and Strub, P. Ted
Abstract:: On Oregon coastal rocky shores, filter‐feeders were relatively abundant and macrophytes were relatively scarce at Strawberry Hill, whereas opposite abundance patterns occurred at Boiler Bay. To determine whether nearshore oceanographic differences were associated with these patterns, we made shore‐based measurements of nutrient and Chl a concentrations. We used a three‐level...

The complex net effect of reciprocal interactions and recruitment facilitation maintains an intertidal kelp community

Creator:: Barner, Allison K., Hacker, Sally D., Menge, Bruce A., and Nielsen, Karina J.
Abstract:: 1. Theoretical and empirical ecology has transitioned from a focus on the role of negative interactions in species coexistence to a more pluralistic view that acknowledges that coexistence in natural communities is more complex, and depends on species interactions that vary in strength, sign, and reciprocity, and such contexts as...

Contrasting effects of hypoxic conditions on survivorship of planktonic larvae of rocky intertidal invertebrates

Creator:: Eerkes-Medrano, Dafne, Menge, Bruce A., Sislak, Christine, and Langdon, Christopher J.
Abstract:: Hypoxia is increasing in coastal zones worldwide, with acute effects on demersal fish and benthic invertebrate communities in shallow coastal and estuarine habitats. Less studied are the effects of hypoxia on planktonic larvae of open coastal habitats. Climate change projections suggest intensified hypoxia in open coast upwelling systems, such as...

Designing effective reserve networks for nonequilibrium metacommunities

Creator:: Gouhier, Tarik C., Guichard, Frederic, and Menge, Bruce A.
Abstract:: The proliferation of efficient fishing practices has promoted the depletion of commercial stocks around the world and caused significant collateral damage to marine habitats. Recent empirical studies have shown that marine reserves can play an important role in reversing these effects. Equilibrium metapopulation models predict that networks of marine reserves...

Oceanographic and climatic variation drive top-down/bottom-up coupling in the Galápagos intertidal meta-ecosystem

Creator:: Vinueza, Luis R., Menge, Bruce A., Ruiz, Diego, and Palacios, Daniel M.
Abstract:: The impact of herbivores on primary producers in differing oceanographic regimes is a matter of intense ecological interest due to ongoing changes in their abundance, that of their predators, and anthropomorphic alteration of nutrient cycles and climatic patterns. Interactions between productivity and herbivory in marine habitats have been studied on...

Macrophyte wrack on sandy beaches of the US Pacific Northwest is linked to proximity of source habitat, ocean upwelling, and beach morphology

Creator:: Reimer, Jessica N., Hacker, Sally D., Menge, Bruce A., and Ruggiero, Peter
Abstract:: Marine macrophyte wrack (macroalgae and seagrasses) frequently washes onto beaches but little is known about the factors controlling its biogeographic variability. We report on a large-scale study of macrophyte wrack deposition patterns on the US Pacific Northwest coast. We measured macrophyte wrack on 12 sandy beach sites from southern Washington...

Wind-driven inner-shelf circulation off central Oregon during summer

Creator:: Kirincich, Anthony R., Barth, John A., Grantham, Brian A., Menge, Bruce A., and Lubchenco, Jane
Abstract:: Velocity measurements from 17 deployments of moored acoustic Doppler current profilers obtained during four summer upwelling seasons are used to describe the crossshelf divergence of Ekman transport in the inner shelf off Oregon. For each deployment the measured surface and bottom cross-shelf transports were compared with estimates of the theoretical...

The Dynamics and Impact of Ocean Acidification and Hypoxia: Insights from Sustained Investigations in the Northern California Current Large Marine Ecosystem

Creator:: Chan, Francis, Barth, John A., Kroeker, Kristy J., Lubchenco, Jane, and Menge, Bruce A.
Abstract:: Coastal upwelling ecosystems around the world are defined by wind-generated currents that bring deep, nutrient-rich waters to the surface ocean where they fuel exceptionally productive food webs. These ecosystems are also now understood to share a common vulnerability to ocean acidification and hypoxia (OAH). In the California Current Large Marine...
