Importance of Sample Gear in the Identification of Trophic Guilds and Forage Species in a Large Lagoonal Estuary

open access: yesMarine and Coastal Fisheries, Volume 11, Issue 6, Page 393-413, December 2019., 2019
Abstract Food habits in Pamlico Sound, North Carolina, are poorly described despite the estuary's large size and importance as nursery and fisheries habitat. We conducted the first multi‐year, multispecies food habits study in Pamlico Sound, sampling the stomach contents of 16,913 predators representing 25 species. Predators were sampled from fisheries‐

DNA metabarcoding unveils multiscale trophic variation in a widespread coastal opportunist

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 28, Issue 2, Page 232-249, January 2019., 2019
Abstract A thorough understanding of ecological networks relies on comprehensive information on trophic relationships among species. Since unpicking the diet of many organisms is unattainable using traditional morphology‐based approaches, the application of high‐throughput sequencing methods represents a rapid and powerful way forward.

Behaviorally Mediated Larval Transport in Upwelling Systems

open access: yesAdvances in Oceanography, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
Highly advective upwelling systems along the western margins of continents are widely believed to transport larvae far offshore in surface currents resulting in larval wastage, limited recruitment, and increased population connectivity. However, suites of larval behaviors effectively mediate interspecific differences in the extent of cross‐shelf ...
