Changes in zooplankton community, and seston and zooplankton fatty acid profiles at the freshwater/saltwater interface of the Chowan River, North Carolina
Lichti, Deborah A.; Rinchard, Jacques; Kimmel, David G. (2017-08-16)The variability in zooplankton fatty acid composition may be an indicator of larval fish habitat quality as fatty acids are linked to fish larval growth and survival. We sampled an anadromous fish nursery, the Chowan River, ... -
Jellyfish-human interactions in North Carolina
Kaneshiro-Pineiro, Mahealani Y. (East Carolina University, 2013)This dissertation investigated potential drivers of jellyfish-human interactions in North Carolina. Jellyfish populations and human use of coasts are increasing; therefore, jellyfish-human interactions are poised to become ... -
A study of composition, abundance, and fatty acid profiles of zooplankton in Albemarle Sound and Chowan River, North Carolina during spring and early summer
Lichti, Deborah Ann (East Carolina University, 2014)In the Albemarle Sound and Chowan River, North Carolina, river herring (alewife and blueback herring) once comprised a commercially important fishery; however, this fishery has since collapsed and a moratorium on river ... -
A Study of the Abundance, Distribution, and Grazing Effects of Zooplankton in the Chlorophyll Maximum (CMAX) of the Neuse River Estuary, North Carolina
McGlaughon, Benjamin D. (East Carolina University, 2012)Phytoplankton tend to accumulate in distinct zones referred to as chlorophyll maxima, or CMAX. A pronounced CMAX occurs in the Neuse River Estuary (NRE), North Carolina, where as much as over 60% of the estuary's phytoplankton ...
