Biodiversity and Biogeography of Amphipod Crustaceans
This dissertation presents aspects of the taxonomy, biodiversity, and biogeography of amphipod crustaceans and is an attempt to address the significant knowledge gaps in the absence of global assessments of the diversity and biogeography of amphipods ...

Abstract The difficulty of sampling zooplankton communities in situ has driven advancements in autonomous, remote sensing technology. The goal of this paper was to perform a gear comparison study testing the performance of one such piece of technology—a glider‐mounted four‐frequency echosounder—against traditional shipboard methods of measuring ...

Variation of amphipod assemblage along the Sargassum stenophyllum (Phaeophyta, Fucales) thallus
The spatial distribution of fauna associated to marine macroalgae has mostly been investigated considering a horizontal plane. However, the macroalgal substrates can present a three-dimensional structure.

Squids are important components of marine ecosystems because of their role as both predator and prey. Across the Tasman Sea, Gould's arrow squid (Nototodarus gouldi) is a commercially targeted ommastrephid squid that supports an economically important fishery.

Marine sponges are advantageous microhabitats because of their complex architecture. The system of internal canals provides circulation of water and deposition of particulate organic matter, ensuring availability of food and shelter. Diminutive amphipods

New marine amphipod records on the Algerian coast
International audienceRecent sampling surveys (2011-2012) of the shallow (0-50 m) hard-bottom communities and re-examination of some softbottom communities (5-143 m) along the Algerian coast have allowed the collection of 33 species (five Caprelloidea ...

The effects of single versus successive warm summers on an intertidal community
To accurately predict how organisms and ecological communities will respond to future conditions caused by climate change, we must consider the temporal dynamics of environmental stressors, including the effects of repeated exposures to stress. We performed a two‐year passive thermal manipulation in coastal British Columbia, Canada to determine how ...

Species associations among larval helminths in an amphipod intermediate host
Larval helminths that share the same intermediate host may or may not also share the same definitive hosts. If one or more of these helminth species can manipulate the phenotype of the intermediate host, there can be great advantages or severe costs for ...

ABSTRACT Low‐tech process‐based stream restoration (LTPBR) is increasingly implemented following wildfire, underscoring the need to evaluate restoration outcomes in burned catchments. To help address this need, we measured abiotic and biotic characteristics of a reach that received LTPBR, an untreated reach, and a reach with relict beaver activity that

ABSTRACT Mining waste water characteristically contains high concentrations of suspended solids, total metals, and nutrients. These can be treated with flocculants within settling ponds to speed up the clarification of water by settling out the suspended solids.
