A discrete-time nutrients-phytoplankton-oysters mathematical model of a bay ecosystem*
Populations are generally censused daily, weekly, monthly or annually. In this paper, we introduce a discrete-time nutrients-phytoplankton-oysters (NPO) model that describes the interactions of nutrients, phytoplankton and oysters in a bay ecosystem.

Preference alters consumptive effects of predators: top-down effects of a native crab on a system of native and introduced prey. [PDF]
Top-down effects of predators in systems depend on the rate at which predators consume prey, and on predator preferences among available prey. In invaded communities, these parameters might be difficult to predict because ecological relationships are ...

Can prior exposure to stress enhance resilience to ocean warming in two oyster species?
Securing economically and ecologically significant molluscs, as our oceans warm due to climate change, is a global priority. South eastern Australia receives warm water in a strengthening East Australia Current and so resident species are vulnerable to ...
