Sampling effort to characterize estuarine macroinfaunal communities in patchy habitats

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Estuarine benthic macroinfauna have aggregated, patchy distributions, making accurate community measurements dependent upon sampling scales. The purpose of this study is to determine the appropriate core sizes and sampling effort needed to characterize benthic infaunal communities in Corpus Christi Bay, Texas, USA.

Red, green, blue color indices as proxy for Symbiodiniaceae cell density and chlorophyll content during coral bleaching

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Coral bleaching, the breakdown of the symbiosis between the coral host and endosymbiotic microalgae, is the main cause of widespread coral reef degradation. Current visual assessment methods for coral health, including color reference cards, are constrained by subjective human color perception and limited resolution.

Applicability of the steady‐state oxygen stable isotope method for estimating metabolism in low‐productivity Arctic lakes

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Metabolism is a key property of lake ecosystem functioning, but logistical challenges make it difficult to estimate across remote regions. The steady‐state dissolved oxygen (DO) stable isotope method (18O method) estimates metabolism from discrete water samples and thus enables large‐scale surveys.

Individual movement modeling expands the power of migratory species observations: North Atlantic right whale case study

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding a population's distribution depends on observing the presence and movement of individuals throughout their range. For highly mobile marine species, these observations typically rely on high effort monitoring programs. Tracking enough individuals to understand trends in movement behavior is not always logistically feasible, and ...

Lipid correction of hydrogen stable isotope ratios in fish

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Lipids are known to affect stable isotope ratio of organisms, especially δ13C values, and simple arithmetic lipid‐correction procedures have been developed based on the carbon to nitrogen ratio (C : N) that is a proxy for lipid content. Equivalent issues will likely arise with the increasing use of hydrogen isotopes in ecology, but as yet no ...
