Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the fundamental issues of predator-prey interactions, with an emphasis on predation among arthropods, which have been better studied, and for which the database is more extensive than for the large and rare vertebrate predators. The book should appeal to ecologists interested in the broad issue of predation effects on communities.

Download or read book A Predator-based Methodology for Studying Predator-prey Relationships in Fishes written by Ashley Vettese and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Changes in the ocean including acidification, increasing temperatures, loss of habitat, and increased hypoxic events has the potential to change predator-prey relationships. These changes in single interactions can then have effects on population sizes, community structures, and changes in trophic cascades. Understanding how changing abiotic factors impact predator-prey relationships will be crucial for understanding what populations and communities will look like under future ocean conditions. In this review, the goals are to (1) summarize the current knowledge on how changing ocean conditions affect predator-prey relationships; (2) describe an example predator-based approach to examine how changing these changing factors impact predator-prey relationships; and (3) test the effectiveness of this method on a simple predator-prey relationship between the marine mesopredator fish lane snapper (Lutjanus synagris) and ghost shrimp prey (Palaemonetes paludosus). The results of this study summarize over 60 studies relating to factors affecting predator-prey relationships and outlines a methodology appropriate for studying predator-prey interactions. The results of the predation trials revealed that predation efficiency of the lane snapper was significantly impacted by temperature, while habitat complexity was found not to be statistically significant.

This book was released on 2010-04 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding predator-prey interactions, and particularly their reciprocal responses, is a central topic in ecology. Many studies have explored habitat use by both predators and prey, and have shown that prey prefer the predator-poor habitats and predators the prey-rich ones. However, these studies mostly focused on the behaviour of predators and prey when the distribution of the other species was fixed in space. Theoretical and empirical knowledge of predators and prey space use when both are allowed to move freely are scarce. Within this framework, this thesis focuses on both the antipredator behaviour and habitat selection by a prey species, northern redbelly dace (Phoxinus eos), when exposed to a predation risk varying in intensity in both space and time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This up-to-date, comprehensive toxicology handbook is devoted to the effects of environmental pollution on fish. Fish species represent nearly half of all vertebrates and have become important sentinels for environmental contamination and model organisms for understanding adverse outcomes from exposures. This new edition is written by recognized experts, and it highlights the significant research progress in fish toxicology that has resulted from rapid technological developments in analytical, biochemical, and genomic sciences. The book: Discusses fundamental topics such as toxicokinetics in fishes, processes governing biotransformation within these organisms, and reactive oxygen species and oxidative stress. Explains key target organ systems for chemical impacts in fish, such as the nervous and immune systems, and how fishes can develop resistance to chemical toxicity. Covers multi-transgenerational effects on fishes, epigenetics, proteomics and metabolomics, and adverse outcome pathways. Replacing the case studies in the first edition, this update delves into the impacts of microplastics, pharmaceuticals, and oil spills in dedicated final chapters. With nearly 200 illustrations and tables, this comprehensive reference work presents concepts in a way that is useful for both novices to and experts in the field of fish toxicology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This classroom resource provides clear, concise scientific information in an understandable and enjoyable way about water and aquatic life. Spanning the hydrologic cycle from rain to watersheds, aquifers to springs, rivers to estuaries, ample illustrations promote understanding of important concepts and clarify major ideas. Aquatic science is covered comprehensively, with relevant principles of chemistry, physics, geology, geography, ecology, and biology included throughout the text. Emphasizing water sustainability and conservation, the book tells us what we can do personally to conserve for the future and presents job and volunteer opportunities in the hope that some students will pursue careers in aquatic science. Texas Aquatic Science, originally developed as part of a multi-faceted education project for middle and high school students, can also be used at the college level for non-science majors, in the home-school environment, and by anyone who educates kids about nature and water.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Predator-prey interactions are critical to the biology of fishes, but it is unclear how sensory and motor systems of prey fish impact predator evasion. In this dissertation, I present work that provides a better understanding of how a prey's sensorimotor system can impact its survival of a predatory encounter. The results of my dissertation give a holistic view of how physiology, behavior and game theory can be used to explain predator evasion in larval zebrafish.My first dissertation chapter described how larval zebrafish use a fast start to move with three-dimensional trajectories. Classically, fast starts have been described purely as a two-dimensional motion. However, in previous studies, anecdotal evidence suggested that larval zebrafish can escape in three dimensions. To study this phenomenon, I made careful three-dimensional kinematic measures of larval zebrafish performing fast starts. The first dissertation chapter revealed that rotations of the larvae's body around its center of mass were indicative of the three-dimensional trajectory the whole body translated towards.My second dissertation chapter investigated the relative importance between the sensory and motor systems in prey survival in a predator-prey interaction. Many studies have studied the importance of the sensory and motor system for predator evasion, but no study has measured one system's importance to survival relative to the other system. In the second chapter, I created a probabilistic, agent-based model to simulate predator-prey interactions between adult and larval zebrafish in silico. After running the model with varying parameter changes, I observed that the sensory system of a larval zebrafish had a greater impact on prey survival than its motor system.My third chapter studied the escape strategy of larval zebrafish. Prey fish have an algorithm to choose an escape direction to flee with. However, there are two competing schools of thought about how prey fish should choose their escape direction. In my third chapter, I recorded larval zebrafish reactions to a robotic predator and measure escape angles. My investigations revealed that larval zebrafish use a mixed strategy that combined both competing theories of escape strategy.
