Nutritional regulation of egg production of Calanus Finmarchicus in the North Atlantic
… food quality influences the egg production of Calanus finmarchicus feeding on natural planktonic diets. Food quality was expressed in terms of carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and the essential fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA; 20:5(n-3)) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA; 22:6(n-3)). Five …

A unified population model of Calanus finmarchicus and C. helgolandicus in the North Atlantic
… we consider the important zooplankton species Calanus finmarchicus and C. helgolandicus. Recent climate change has resulted in the gradual replacement of C. finmarchicus by C. helgolandicus in the North Sea. However, the ability of C. helgolandicus to fully replace C. finmarchicus has been …

Biophysical interactions in the Iceland Basin
… and herbivory by the calanoid copepod, Calanus finmarchicus provides the trophic link between primary producers and the important commercial fishery for Atlantic Cod. However, one result of ocean warming is that the distribution of the cold water loving Calanus finmarchicus is being …

Interactions between calanoid copepod hosts and their associated microbiota
… examined the ability of the oceanic copepod Calanus finmarchicus to transcriptionally respond to mild stressors and demonstrated that heat shock proteins (Hsps) are a conserved element of the copepod’s regulation of stressful conditions and diapause. We then investigated the transcriptomic …

Acoustic Ecology Of Marine Crustacean Zooplankton
… First, I demonstrate that Northern krill and Calanus copepods actively contribute to marine soundscapes through species-specific acoustic signals that may play roles in intraspecific communication and predator–prey interactions (Chapter 2). My second focus is on how the two different …

Zooplankton population variability in a warming ocean: Modeling spatiotemporal patterns and drivers within a dynamic shelf ecosystem
… in the Northeast U.S. Shelf (NES), the copepod Calanus finmarchicus plays a critical role in the food web by mediating the flow of carbon to higher trophic levels and providing a valuable food source for commercially and ecologically important fish and large mammals. This thesis develops …

Applying dendrochronology visual crossdating techniques to the marine bivalve Arctica islandica and assessing the utility of master growth chronologies as proxies for temperature and secondary productivity in the Gulf of Maine
… chronology and the annual abundance of <em>Calanus finmarchicus</em>, which is the dominant zooplankton species for this region. Although each site master shell chronology individually yielded a significant relationship with the <em>C. finmarchicus</em> abundance, the combined shell …
