Journal ArticleDOI
Climate change effects on biodiversity, ecosystems, ecosystem services, and natural resource management in the United States
Sarah R. Weiskopf,Madeleine A. Rubenstein,Lisa G. Crozier,Sarah Gaichas,Roger Griffis,Jessica E. Halofsky,Kimberly J. W. Hyde,Toni Lyn Morelli,Jeffrey T. Morisette,Roldan C. Muñoz,Andrew J. Pershing,David L. Peterson,Rajendra Poudel,Michelle D. Staudinger,Ariana E. Sutton-Grier,Laura M. Thompson,James M. Vose,Jake F. Weltzin,Kyle Powys Whyte +18 more
TL;DR: It is found that species are responding to climate change through changes in morphology and behavior, phenology, and geographic range shifts, and these changes are mediated by plastic and evolutionary responses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Abundance estimates of the Indo-Pacific lionfish Pterois volitans/miles complex in the Western North Atlantic
Paula E. Whitfield,Jonathan A. Hare,Andrew W. David,Stacey Lyn Harter,Roldan C. Muñoz,Christine M. Addison +5 more
TL;DR: The magnitude and extent of the invasive Indo-Pacific lionfish invasion off the southeast coast of the United States is examined by first, compiling reports of lionfish to provide range information and second, estimate lionfish abundance from two separate studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diet of invasive lionfish on hard bottom reefs of the Southeast USA: insights from stomach contents and stable isotopes
TL;DR: The overall pattern of generalist piscivory emerging from data indicates the potential for significant impacts to the invaded community and suggests that prey are consumed in relation to their local abundance.
Preliminary evidence of increased spawning aggregations of mutton snapper (Lutjanus analis) at Riley's Hump two years after establishment of the Tortugas South Ecological Reserve
TL;DR: Burton et al. as mentioned in this paper described the re-formation of a spawning aggregation of mutton snapper (Lutjanus analis) and indicated that the aggregation may be increasing in size.
Journal ArticleDOI
Native fish community structure and Indo-Pacific lionfish Pterois volitans densities along a depth-temperature gradient in Onslow Bay, North Carolina, USA
Paula E. Whitfield,Roldan C. Muñoz,Christine A. Buckel,BP Degan,D. W. Freshwater,Jonathan A. Hare +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors quantified native fish densities along a depth-temperature gradient within a tem- perate-tropical marine transition zone (North Carolina continental shelf) to examine the role of depth and temperature in structuring these communities.
