Cellular Development of the American Lobster Heart [PDF]
The heart of the American lobster, Homarus americanus , represents a relatively simple nerve-muscle system. A nine-celled cardiac ganglion functions to initiate the contractions of the transversely striated myocardium. To describe the development of this nerve-muscle system, hearts of lobster embryos in different stages of development have been ...

How Might Climate Change Affect American Lobsters?
Climate change is likely to have a dramatic impact on many animals, including American lobsters (Homarus americanus). Lobsters are very sensitive to water temperature, and they will move to avoid water that is too warm or too cold. While this behavior has served them well for 1,000’s of years, as the oceans warm up, they might seek new habitats, which ...

Influence of Natural Inshore and Offshore Thermal Regimes on Egg Development and Time of Hatch in American lobsters, Homarus americanus [PDF]
Some egg-bearing (ovigerous) American lobsters (Homarus americanus) make seasonal inshore-to-offshore movements, subjecting their eggs to different thermal regimes than those of eggs carried by lobsters that do not make these movements.

Climate Change Vulnerability of American Lobster Fishing Communities in Atlantic Canada
Climate change impacts on fisheries will undoubtedly have socio-economic impacts on coastal communities and the seafood market. However, it is a challenge to integrate climate change information in a form that can be used efficiently by adaptation ...

Implications of ocean bottom temperatures on the catch ability of American lobster
Since the beginning of the satellite era, the general trend of global and regional sea-surface temperature (SST) have continued to rise and, in the recent decade, the rate of warming has increased dramatically in the Gulf of Maine.
