Divergent Environmental Niches and Climate Vulnerabilities of Jonah Crab (Cancer borealis) and Atlantic Rock Crab (Cancer irroratus)

Fisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Jonah crab and Atlantic rock crab in the United States are currently assessed by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration climate change vulnerability assessments under the category Cancer crabs due to a dearth of species‐specific information across the attributes assessed.

Quantifying oyster aquaculture lease acceptance: A case study on repurposed Maine lobster pounds

Aquaculture Reports
Oyster aquaculture holds tremendous potential to diversify coastal economies and increase resilience to climate change, but expansion can conflict with other marine resource users. These conflicts are difficult to characterize quantitatively.

Larval Arctic cod (Boreogadus saida) exhibit stronger developmental and physiological responses to temperature than to elevated pCO2

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract High‐latitude ecosystems are simultaneously warming and acidifying under ongoing climate change. Arctic cod (Boreogadus saida) are a key species in the Arctic Ocean and have demonstrated sensitivity to ocean warming and acidification as adults and embryos, but their larval sensitivity to the combined stressors is unknown. In a laboratory multi‐

Discrimination learning with light stimuli in restrained American lobster [PDF]

Behavioural Brain Research, 2012
Operant discrimination learning has been extensively utilized in the study on the perceptual ability of animals and their higher order brain functions. We tested in this study whether American lobster Homarus americanus, which was previously found to possess ability of operant learning with claw gripping, could be trained to discriminate light stimuli ...

The effects of playbacks of anthropogenic noise on the anti‐predator behaviour of Pacific sand lance, Ammodytes personatus

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Noise from human activities has increased and been shown to negatively impact marine animals. Marine mammals and fish are vulnerable to anthropogenic noise because they rely on sound to communicate, find food, avoid predators and sense their environment. Forage fish are small schooling pelagic fish, important to many predators and instrumental

Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence: Nanopore sequencing and complete assembly of the European lobster (Homarus gammarus) mitogenome uncovers the missing nad2 and a new major gene cluster duplication

BMC Genomics, 2019
Background The recently published complete mitogenome of the European lobster (Homarus gammarus) that was generated using long-range PCR exhibits unusual gene composition (missing nad2) and gene rearrangements among decapod crustaceans with strong ...

Behavioral Thermoregulation in the American Lobster Homarus Americanus [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Biology, 1998
ABSTRACT It is generally accepted that water temperature has a strong influence on the behavior of the American lobster Homarus americanus. However, there is surprisingly little behavioral evidence to support this view. To characterize the behavioral responses of lobsters to thermal gradients, three different experiments were conducted ...

Genomic analyses of giant kelp reveal restricted connectivity across the Southern Hemisphere and striking diversity in Aotearoa (New Zealand)

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract The macroalga Macrocystis pyrifera (“giant” or “bladder” kelp) plays a vital role in cold‐temperate marine ecosystems but faces increasing threats from ongoing environmental change. Understanding its population diversity and connectivity is essential for predicting future range shifts and assessing the ecological consequences of such shifts in
