You are what you eat mixotrophic protists in Antarctic marine plankton communities
Meeting Abstract S1-8 Saturday, Jan. 4 11:30 – 12:00 You are what you eat: mixotrophic protists in Antarctic marine plankton communities GAST, RJ*; SANDERS, RW; Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution; Temple University rgast@whoi.edu https://www2.whoi.edu/staff/rgast/ Despite the traditional view of protistan species as either phototrophic or heterotrophic, there are many photosynthetic protists that consume prey (mixotrophy). Some modeling studies […]
Two Plus Two Doesn’t Equal Four The Importance of Incorporating Realistic Environmental Variability in Understanding the Resilience of Antarctic Fishes to Climate Change
Meeting Abstract S1-11 Saturday, Jan. 4 14:30 – 15:00 Two Plus Two Doesn’t Equal Four: The Importance of Incorporating Realistic Environmental Variability in Understanding the Resilience of Antarctic Fishes to Climate Change TODGHAM, AE; University of California Davis todgham@ucdavis.edu Although the Southern Ocean is experiencing some of the fastest rates of ocean change, few studies have explored […]
Revisiting phylogeographic patterns in Antarctica in the age of ‘-omics’
Meeting Abstract S1-6 Saturday, Jan. 4 10:30 – 11:00 Revisiting phylogeographic patterns in Antarctica in the age of ‘-omics.’ MAHON, AR*; HALANYCH, KM; Central Michigan University; Auburn University mahon2a@cmich.edu Antarctic fauna, particularly marine benthic invertebrates living on the continental shelf, are far more diverse than previously realized. Thanks to recent increases in sampling efforts, our understanding […]
