Fish Biodiversity Patterns of Artificial Reef Complex and Comparisons With Natural Substrates

In this study, we used a submersible to describe a deep-water artificial reef complex to better understand the effects of man-made features on fish communities.

Complex Dispersal of Adult Yellowfin Tuna From the Main Hawaiian Islands

Local availability of yellowfin tuna is a key economic, dietary and cultural concern for MHI communities and insular fisheries. 2014 - 2016, we partnered with local fishermen to track 19 yellowfin tuna and found short tracks revealed diverse patterns.

Distinct Zooplankton Regime Shift Patterns Across Ecoregions Of The U.S. Northeast Continental Shelf Large Marine Ecosystem

Decadal scale regime shifts in Northeast shelf plankton communities exhibited distinct characteristics between ecoregions and seasons; results suggest these regime shifts are driven by both local and basin-scale dynamics.

Environmental Monitors On Lobster Traps (eMOLT): Long-term Observations Of New England's Bottom-water Temperatures

Beginning in 2001, dozens of New England lobstermen have been installing temperature recorders on their traps to document changes from hourly to interannual time scales. These changes are due to a variety of processes such as tides, winds, exchanges with the offshore ocean waters, and larger scale climatic cycles.

Long-Term Changes in the Distributions of Larval and Adult Fish in the Northeast U.S. Shelf Ecosystem

Changes in the northeast shelf ecosystem are resulting in changes in timing of when fish reproduce and were they live. Management of marine fish requires long-term data of eggs, larvae, and adults to understand the past, present, and future of marine fisheries.

Economic Impacts of Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument Expansion on the Hawaii Longline Fishery

This study examines the economic impacts of the Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument (PMNM) expansion on the Hawaii longline fishery, using difference-in-differences models with fixed effects.

Examining the Seascape of Compliance in U.S. Pacific Island Fisheries

Recent noncompliance research has focused on illegal, unreported, and unregulated (IUU) fisheries and capacity shortfalls in marine protected areas (MPAs), but less work has assessed other aspects of noncompliance.

The Rarity of Depth Refugia from Coral Bleaching Heat Stress in the Western and Central Pacific Islands

Some researchers have suggested that corals living in deeper reefs may escape heat stress experienced by shallow corals; however, results of analyzing in situ temperature records suggest otherwise.
