Book Synopsis Anthropogenic Impacts on Ghost Crab, Ocypode Quadrata, Populations, St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands by : Kaliegh Schlender

This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Globally, sandy beaches support local economies and are the most commonly-used type of coastline by people (Davis & FitzGerald, 2004; Schlacher et al., 2007), with beaches serving as popular attractions in the U.S. Virgin Islands (USVI) for visitors from around the world. However, high urbanization causes the degradation of coastal resources. Ghost crabs, Ocypode, display predicable responses to anthropogenic impacts, and are popular ecological indicator reflecting the level of ecological stress present in sandy beaches (Barros, 2001; Costa et al., 2019; Costa & Zalmon, 2019; Gül & Griffen, 2019; Peterson et al., 2000). Although St. Thomas, USVI is a popular tourist destination, there are no beach studies in the USVI identifying beach types or the impact of high urbanization from tourism through the use of ghost crabs, to-date. This study characterizes beach types using multiple indices (Beach Index, Beach Deposit Index, Log(1/Beach Slope), and Relative Tide Range) based on physical parameters (beach slope, grain size, and wave height) for eight beaches (Stumpy Bay, Santa Maria Bay, Caret Bay, Neltjeberg Bay, Lindberg Bay, Magens Bay, Coki Point Beach, and Sapphire Beach) on St. Thomas to establish a baseline for beach types on the island. Surveys were conducted during high tourist season from February 3 - March 19, 2020 and low- tourist season from May 18 - June 25, 2020 during early morning hours. Site values for Beach Index, Beach Deposit Index, and Log (1/Beach Slope) were compared using Kruskal- Wallis Rank Sum tests and Dunn Post Hoc tests, and results indicated that all beaches were wave dominated reflective, with slight variations detected best by Log (1/Beach Slope). Additionally, urbanization effects were assessed using a modified Urbanization Index using six different variables (buildings on sand, solid waste, visitor frequency, distance to urban center, beach cleaning, and vehicle traffic) to calculate specific urbanization levels across study sites.

Book Synopsis Ecology and Population Dynamics of Juvenile Dungeness Crab in Grays Harbor Estuary and Adjacent Nearshore Waters of the Southern Washington Coast by :
Download or read book Ecology and Population Dynamics of Juvenile Dungeness Crab in Grays Harbor Estuary and Adjacent Nearshore Waters of the Southern Washington Coast written by and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This narrative on the life history, ecology and population dynamics of Dungeness crab is intended to provide background biological information for use in assessing potential impacts of the proposed U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE) Navigation Improvement Project in Grays Harbor, Washington. Much support for crab research has come from COE to fund research projects in the Grays Harbor estuary and much of the data derived from those projects are summarized in this document. The biological information collected to date on Dungeness crab has been used in a dredge impact model to estimate potential entrainment and mortality of crab according to various scenarios of construction proposed by COE. Of particular concern in Grays Harbor are large populations of juvenile Dungeness crab that reside in the estuary and may be affected by the navigation project. Biological and life history information on the timing of occurrence of crab in the estuary, spatial distribution and abundance, movement to and from the estuary from the nearshore coastal zone, growth rates, and habitat requirements are all issues considered in this document, and these data have been used to attenuate any effects of the construction program to the greatest extent possible.
Book Synopsis Modification of Trophic Links Between an Omnivore and Macroinfaunal Prey from Sandy Beaches of Differing Physical Regimes by : Kristina Joan Morrow
Download or read book Modification of Trophic Links Between an Omnivore and Macroinfaunal Prey from Sandy Beaches of Differing Physical Regimes written by Kristina Joan Morrow and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sandy beach ecosystems have been studied worldwide; however, ecological data are sparse for the extensive barrier islands of Florida. Accordingly, I investigated the feeding patterns of the ghost crab (Ocypode quadrata), a dominant omnivore inhabiting beaches along the Floridian coast. Density data was collected for ghost crabs and swash macroinfaunal prey. In addition, I utilized stable isotopes in conjunction with the mixing models IsoSource and SIAR to characterize diets of ghost crabs across three barrier islands in spring and summer 2011. Results showed that ghost crabs at Cayo Costa feed primarily on swash macroinfauna, while those from Anclote Key shifted their diet to one comprised primarily of semi-terrestrial amphipods. However, at Honeymoon Island, ghost crab isotopic signatures were best explained by a mixed diet of both macroinfauna and wrack-associated prey. The unique consumption of wrack fauna at Anclote Key co-occurs with comparatively low infaunal densities and biomass, and modified ghost crab behavior due to trait-mediated effects. My results are novel because they suggest that wrack-associated fauna may be an important food source for ghost crabs in certain beach regimes.
