Structure-forming benthic invertebrates : habitat distributions on the continental margin of Oregon and Washington

Creator:: Strom, Natalie A.
Abstract:: Structure-forming invertebrates belong to a polyphyletic group of primarily sessile and sedentary megafauna that can significantly enhance the complexity of physical habitats. A number of these organisms, including cold-water corals and sponges, are known to be slow growing and vulnerable to physical disturbance. In addition, as filter feeders, these invertebrates...

Untangling the complexity of nearshore ecosystems : examining issues of scaling and variability in benthic communities

Creator:: Schoch, G. Carl
Abstract:: The objective of this research was to improve our understanding of how changes in the environment affect ecological processes. Change detection is often confounded by the large variation found in ecological data due to the difficulty of finding replicates in nature. Intertidal communities were chosen for studies of biophysical interactions...

Patterns of benthic macroinvertebrate communities and habitat associations in temperate continental shelf waters of the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Lee, Timothy Seung-chul
Abstract:: Macroinvertebrates constitute the backbone of megafaunal communities in benthic ecosystems around the globe. Many macroinvertebrates have vital roles in benthic ecosystems, ranging from enhancing habitat complexity to providing staple food sources for other organisms. Regardless of how familiar macroinvertebrates are to the general public, very few studies have attempted to...

Habitat selection by Northern Pygmy-Owls on the Olympic Peninsula, WA

Creator:: Giese, Alan R.
Abstract:: Landscape level habitat alterations can have different effects on different species. Species that are more highly specialized for some important aspect of their natural history are expected to be more sensitive to habitat alteration than are those that are generalists. The Northern Pygmy-Owl (Glaucidium gnoma) has been suggested as a...

Estimates of biomass of detritus food chain

Creator:: Bissonnette, Pam, Taub, F. B. (Frieda B.), U.S. International Biological Program. Coniferous Forest Biome, and University of Washington
Abstract:: Macrobenthos populations of the IBP lakes were sampled during October and November of 1972. Analyses of the samples revealed dominance of chrinomids and oligochaetes in both littoral and profundal regions for at least this time of year. Due to sampling difficulties the oligochaete material was not used for chemical analyses....
