Effects of Dissolved Oxygen, Temperature, and Dietary Carbon Sources on the Condition of Juvenile English Sole (Parophrys vetulus) from the Oregon Coast

Creator:

Stowell, Michelle A.

Abstract:

Observations of the Oregon coast’s physical oceanography over the last few decades have revealed falling dissolved oxygen levels associated with seasonal upwelling, as well as rising water temperatures. In extreme cases, these changes have been associated with die-offs, redistribution, and decreased abundance and diversity of benthic fish and invertebrates. Many...

Condition of Juvenile English Sole (Parophrys vetulus) from the Oregon Coast Abstract approved
An experimental investigation of the effects of temperature and dissolved oxygen on the growth of juvenile English sole and juvenile Dungeness crab

Creator:

Bancroft, Morgan P.

Abstract:

In the past two decades, occurrences of summertime upwelling-driven low dissolved oxygen (DO) events, or hypoxia, have increased along the northeast Pacific coast. If hypoxic events are severe enough to cause marine species mortality, the areas affected are often called "dead zones." In 2002 and again in 2006, the events...
