Growth of juvenile black rockfish (Sebastes melanops) during estuarine residence
Many juvenile fishes have specific habitat requirements, and while some habitats may be more important than others for growth and survival,...

Anti-predator responses to chemical, visual, and combined cues by an estuarine hermit crab from sandy tidal flats
AbstractMany aquatic invertebrates adjust their behavior to the degree of predation risk, which can be inferred from various sensory cues. We...

Assessing Energetic Pathways and Time Lags in Estuarine Food Webs
Detecting strong species interactions in food webs is often challenging due to difficulties related to adequate experimentation and the prevalence of...

Distribution of Metal Resistance Genes in Estuarine Sediments and Associated Key Impact Factors
Currently, little is known about the distribution of metal resistance genes (MRGs) in estuarine sediments. In this study, we used the high-throughput...

The influence of abiotic and biotic conditions on lifecycle stages is critical for estuarine seagrass resilience
Abiotic and biotic factors influence seagrass resilience, but the strength and relative importance of the effects are rarely assessed over the...

Spatial and Temporal Distribution of the Multi-element Signatures of the Estuarine Non-indigenous Bivalve Ruditapes philippinarum
Filter-feeder bivalves such as non-indigenous Ruditapes philippinarum absorb and accumulate metals, resulting in multi-element profiles. The goal of...

Small-Scale Artisanal Fishers and Socio-environmental Conflicts in Estuarine and Coastal Wetlands
This chapter aims to build different ways of thinking the marine and estuarine spaces from an ontological perspective. Due to the extractive... -
Stock composition of Atlantic sturgeon (Acipenser oxyrinchus oxyrinchus) encountered in marine and estuarine environments on the U.S. Atlantic Coast
Atlantic sturgeon ( Acipenser oxyrinchus oxyrinchus ) is a large, anadromous fish native to the Atlantic Coast of North America. Although this species...
