Identification of two antibody‐interaction sites on the surface of Panulirus interruptus hemocyanin [PDF]
Negatively stained complexes of Panulirus interruptus (spiny lobster) hemocyanin with two different monoclonal antibodies, named E and J, were studied by electron microscopy and image processing. The attachment site of the antibodies to the hexameric hemocyanin molecule was deduced from two perpendicular views of hemocyanin/antibody complexes, in which

Short‐Term Management of Kelp Forests for Marine Heatwaves Requires Planning
ABSTRACT Heatwaves are now pervasive stressors to marine ecosystems, and it is urgent to consider mitigation tools that support ecosystem resilience and persistence in the immediate future. We modeled a system of kelp, herbivorous urchin, and predatory fish to compare how potential management actions (kelp seeding, urchin removal, and fishery closures)

Marine protection and environmental forcing influence fish‐derived nutrient cycling in kelp forests
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Animal consumers excrete dissolved inorganic nitrogen, an essential nutrient for regulating primary production and macroalgal growth in the ocean. Often overlooked in attempts to explain kelp forest productivity, relatively little is known about the role of consumers in

Population genetic and phylogeographic insights into the phyllosomal odyssey
The majority of marine species maintain genetic connectivity through pelagic propagules, with pelagic duration hypothesized to limit dispersal potential. This dissertation investigates the geographic scale of genetic connectivity when pelagic duration is

Abstract Worldwide, lobsters are considered key predators that control urchin populations. It has been widely reported that lobster size plays a significant role in the size of urchins they feed on, as does the size of the urchin. Generally, it is thought that small palinurid “spiny” lobsters measuring less than 120 mm carapace length (CL) are ...

Abstract Ecosystem function is maintained in part by direct species interactions, but indirect interactions and non‐consumptive effects may be of equal ecological importance. Along the west coast of North America, the recent population collapse of the predatory sunflower sea star Pycnopodia helianthoides has been implicated in the proliferation of the ...
