Phenotypic diversity within two toxic dinoflagellate genera : environmental and transcriptomic studies of species diversity in alexandrium and gambierdiscus
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2016)
Dinoflagellates are a diverse group of single-celled eukaryotic phytoplankton that are important for their unique genetics and molecular biology, the multitude of ecological roles they play, and the ability of multiple ...
Effects and added drag on cetaceans : fishing gear entanglement and external tag
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2017)
Animal movement is motivated in part by energetic constraints, where fitness is maximized by minimizing energy consumption. The energetic cost of movement depends on the resistive forces acting on an animal; changes in ...
Defining the ecological and physiological traits of phytoplankton across marine ecosystem
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2016)
Marine phytoplankton are central players in the global carbon cycle, responsible for nearly half of global primary production. The identification of the factors controlling phytoplankton ecology, physiology, and, ultimately, ...
