Understanding the conditions that drive variation in recruitment of key estuarine species can be important for effective conservation and management of their populations. The Olympia oyster (Ostrea lurida) is native to the Pacific coast of North Amer

Changes in the abundance and composition of zooplankton resulting from species introductions may be contributing to a decline in the abundance of planktivorous fish in the San Francisco Estuary (SFE). To examine how changes in the prey assemblage may

In most aquatic ecosystems, copepod nauplii outnumber all other mesozooplankton. Although thousands of studies have examined feeding by later life history stages, the feeding habits of nauplii are poorly known. We offered conspecific adult and naupli

Egg development times (DTs) of copepods are used to scale DTs of life stages to temperature and to calculate egg production rate in sac spawners. Here, we report egg DTs at various temperatures for two copepod species from the upper San Francisco Est

Grazing by the overbite clam Corbula amurensis (formerly known as Potamocorbula) may be the cause of substantial declines in phytoplankton biomass and zooplankton in the San Fran- cisco Estuary (SFE) following its introduction in 1986. While grazing

Despite their potential importance as predators, the early life-history stages of ctenophores are relatively understudied. Measurements of digestion times for larvae are especially limited compared with adults, even though these measurements are requ

Mnemiopsis leidyi larvae were preserved quantitatively for up to 1 year in 5―20% acid Lugol's solution. The highest preservation efficiency and least shrinkage and deformation occurred in the 5% treatment.

Mnemiopsis leidyi. larvae depend on microplankton ( 0.5 mm in length and can successfully capture and consume mesozooplankton prey. Feeding and growth rates of newly hatched M. leidyi larvae were measured in controlled laboratory experiments. When fe

Larval stages of the ctenophore Mnemiopsis leidyi rely on metazoan prey, such as Acartia tonsa nauplii and copepodites, to support high growth rates. However, M. leidyi larvae 2.0 mm, nauplii REs plateaued at a mean of 91.03 ± 1.70%. All larvae 2.5

Larvae and post-larvae of the lobate ctenophore Mnemiopsis leidyi consumed significant quantities of microphytoplankton and microzooplankton prey in controlled experiments where they were fed in situ assemblages of microplankton prey. Prey taxa inges
