Shellfish subsidies along the Pacific coast of North America

open access: yesEcography, Volume 43, Issue 5, Page 668-681, May 2020., 2020
Spatial subsidies are associated with pronounced ecosystem responses, as nutrients cross ecological boundaries and cascade through food webs. While the importance of subsidies is known, the role of shellfish, specifically molluscs, as a marine subsidy has not been formally described. Focusing primarily on the Pacific coast of North America, we identify

Precarious livelihoods: Examining the intersection of fish work and ecological change in coastal Jamaica

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 2, Issue 1, Page 152-162, March 2020., 2020
Abstract Precarity has not been applied in the context of fisheries‐based work, even as working conditions in fisheries are emerging to be a real issue. There has been limited analysis of fish work outside the media spotlight or how changing ecological and biophysical conditions (e.g.

The Status of Queen Conch, Strombus gigas, Research in the Caribbean

open access: green, 2021
Today there are approximately 230 published scientific papers on queen conch, Strombus gigas. Publication on this species began in the 1960's and increased rapidly during the 1980's and 1990's (Fig. 1). The increase in publication after 1980 was associated with three particular areas ofendeavor. First, many articles were published to document the rapid

Multiple Twinning in Nacre and Aragonite

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 20, 9 March 2026.
Electron backscatter diffraction map of a cluster of geologic aragonite, exhibiting single, double, and triple twins. The whole cluster is approximately 2 cm wide. Colors indicate crystal orientations, so that pixels where the a‐, b‐, and c‐axis is perpendicular to the image plane are green, red, and blue, respectively.

Larval Diel Vertical Migration of the Marine Gastropod Kelletia kelletii (Forbes, 1850)

open access: yesJournal of Marine Sciences, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
Documenting larval behavior is critical for building an understanding of larval dispersal dynamics and resultant population connectivity. Nocturnal diel vertical migration (DVM), a daily migration towards the surface of the water column at night and downward during the day, can profoundly influence dispersal outcomes.

Screening Relaxants for Efficacy and Effects on Growth for Greenlip Abalone, Haliotis laevigata Donovan

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 5, Issue 6, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Relaxants are used in abalone aquaculture to facilitate handling, transport and grading stock, with minimal injury, stress, immune suppression and mortality. Benzocaine has been commonly used as an abalone relaxant but negative behavioural responses to exposure have been observed, and in some countries it has a withholding period, precluding ...

Reviewing the Effects of Ocean Acidification on Sexual Reproduction and Early Life History Stages of Reef‐Building Corals

open access: yesJournal of Marine Sciences, Volume 2011, Issue 1, 2011., 2011
Ocean acidification (OA) is a relatively young yet rapidly developing scientific field. Assessing the potential response(s) of marine organisms to projected near‐future OA scenarios has been at the forefront of scientific research, with a focus on ecosystems (e.g., coral reefs) and processes (e.g., calcification) that are deemed particularly vulnerable.
