The competing impacts of climate change and nutrient reductions on dissolved oxygen in Chesapeake Bay [PDF]
The Chesapeake Bay region is projected to experience changes in temperature, sea level, and precipitation as a result of climate change. This research uses an estuarine-watershed hydrodynamic–biogeochemical modeling system along with projected mid ...

Composition and temporal patterns of larval fish communities in Chesapeake and Delaware Bays
Comparing larval fish assemblages in different estuaries provides insights about the coastal distribution of larval populations, larval transport, and adult spawning locations (Ribeiro et al. 2015).

The Extent of Seasonally Suitable Habitats May Limit Forage Fish Production in a Temperate Estuary
The sustained production of sufficient forage is critical to advancing ecosystem-based management, yet factors that affect local abundances and habitat conditions necessary to support aggregate forage production remain largely unexplored.
