Journal ArticleDOI
Quantifying the dynamics of marine invertebrate metacommunities: What processes can maintain high diversity with low densities in the Mediterranean Sea?
TL;DR: A theoretical model was developed in order to study the diversity vs. density patterns in coastal benthic invertebrate species in the Mediterranean Sea and revealed that competitive interactions have a stabilizing effect on interacting organisms when gains by recruitment are higher than losses by mortality.
Book ChapterDOI
Epibiont-Marine Macrophyte Assemblages
TL;DR: The biology and ecology of marine seagrasses and macroalgae have likely been inflenced by the presence of epibionts for millions of years, given the evolutionary history of both groups, and the potential for coevolution as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sediment Transport Events on Shelves and Slopes (STRESS) and Biological Effects of Coastal Ocean Sediment Transport (BECOST)
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that the small-scale fabric of shelf sediments and the fine texture of stratigraphy of shallow water sediments have held fascination for marine geologists and stratigraphers alike.
Dissertation
Embryology, larval ecology, and recruitment of "Bathymodiolus" childressi, a cold-seep mussel from the Gulf of Mexico
TL;DR: This thesis is based on a paper presented at the 2013 UO Libraries convocation on “The Making of a thesis: Foundations of a Social Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience: Toward a Programming Language for the 21st Century.”
Journal ArticleDOI
Benthic macrofaunal compositional variations in the northern Bering Sea
TL;DR: Overall, the extensive soft-sediment habitat supports a varied fauna composition with location, in species dominance, abundance, and size-class, which is important in assessing ecosystem performance related to secondary production, biogeochemistry, bioturbation, top predator feeding strategy, recruitment, and in measuring change.
