Vibrio pectenicida strain FHCF-3 is a causative agent of sea star wasting disease

Nature Ecology & Evolution
More than 10 years following the onset of the sea star wasting disease (SSWD) epidemic, affecting over 20 asteroid species from Mexico to Alaska, the causative agent has been elusive. SSWD killed billions of the most susceptible species, sunflower sea stars (Pycnopodia helianthoides), initiating a trophic cascade involving unchecked urchin population ...

The Effects of Emotional Appeals and Gain Versus Loss Framing in Communicating Sea Star Wasting Disease

Science Communication, 2015
In response to the recent sea star wasting disease event and the growing concern over the negative consequences of eco-depression regarding environmental crises, this study investigated the effects of two emotional appeals (sadness and hope) and their interaction with gain versus loss framing on information seeking, policy support, and pro ...

Effects of wasting disease on sea star populations in southern California: Variations over a 40-year period

ABSTRACT Sea star wasting disease has been described for asteroid populations from many parts of the world and for numerous species. The causative agents are generally unknown. However, within the Southern California Bight, a Vibrio bacterium appears to have been the cause of ...
