Causes and Consequences of Thermal Tolerance Limits in Rocky Intertidal Porcelain Crabs, Genus Petrolisthes [PDF]
Integrative and Comparative Biology, 2002 Vertical zonation of intertidal organisms, from the shallow subtidal to the supralittoral zones, is a ubiquitous feature of temperate and tropical rocky shores. Organisms that live higher on the shore experience larger daily and seasonal fluctuations in microhabitat conditions, due to their greater exposure to terrestrial conditions during emersion ...

Inter-specific comparative analysis of distribution and habitat use patterns of benthic decapod crustaceans in shallow waters [PDF]
, 2005 [Abstract] Coastal areas have been widely considered as nurseries for many marine species. New approaches to this concept take into account interactions among environmental variables and ecological variations related to geographical location, as well ...

Geographical implications of seasonal reproduction in the bat star Asterina stellifera [PDF]
, 2013 The reproductive cycle and environmental cues that regulate gonad production in Asterina stellifera were studied from April 2009 to April 2011 in a rocky subtidal habitat at the southernmost limit of its distribution (Mar del Plata, Argentina).

The History and Literature of America's Oysters [PDF]
, 1996 Historically, America's use and enjoyment of the oyster extend far back into prehistoric times. The Native Americans often utilized oysters, more intensively in some areas than in others, and, at least in some areas of the Caribbean and Pacific coast ...

Cold-Induced Vasodilation and Vasoconstriction in the Finger Of Tropical and Temperate Indigenes [PDF]
, 2013 While heat acclimatization reflects the development of heat tolerance, it may weaken an ability to tolerate cold. The purpose of this study was to explore cold-induced vasodilation (CIVD) responses in the finger of tropical indigenes during finger cold ...

Impact of anthropogenic ocean acidification on thermal tolerance of the spider crab Hyas araneus [PDF]
, 2009 Future scenarios for the oceans project combined developments of CO2 accumulation and global warming and their impact on marine ecosystems. The synergistic impact of both factors was addressed by studying the effect of elevated CO2 concentrations on ...

The effects of changing climate on faunal depth distributions determine winners and losers
, 2014 Changing climate is predicted to impact all depths of the global oceans, yet projections of range shifts in marine faunal distributions in response to changing climate seldom evaluate potential shifts in depth distribution.

Gene expression profiling in gills of the great spider crab Hyas araneus in response to ocean acidification and warming [PDF]
, 2014 Background: Hypercapnia and elevated temperatures resulting from climate change may have adverse consequences for many marine organisms. While diverse physiological and ecological effects have been identified, changes in those molecular mechanisms ...
