Why Marine Mollusks don’t require larvae for dispersal
Meeting Abstract 71.9 Friday, Jan. 6 Why Marine Mollusks don’t require larvae for dispersal HICKMAN, Carole S.; Univ. of California, Berkeley caroleh@berkeley.edu Dispersal modes in marine mollusks are linked classically to larval life history. Taxa that lack a planktonic larval stage and larvae that do not feed in the plankton allegedly lack exposure to currents and prolonged […]
Transplants of juvenile mussels show that thermal tolerance, alone, is unlikely to set the Atlantic southern range boundary of the northern blue mussel, Mytilus trossulus,
Meeting Abstract 71.8 Friday, Jan. 6 Transplants of juvenile mussels show that thermal tolerance, alone, is unlikely to set the Atlantic southern range boundary of the northern blue mussel, Mytilus trossulus, MCCARTNEY, MA*; YUND, PO; Univ. of North Carolina, Wilmington; University of New England mccartneym@uncw.edu Thermal tolerance limits and thermal optima for growth and reproduction undoubtedly play […]

Meeting Abstract 71.3 Friday, Jan. 6 Offshore renewable energy structures as stepping stones for biogeographic change: does larval vertical positioning hold the key? MILLER, RG*; BURROWS, MT; FOX, CJ; INALL, ME; Scottish Association for Marine Science raeanne.miller@sams.ac.uk The construction of marine renewable energy devices will alter the availability of shallow water hard habitat around the UK. These […]
