Biogenic silica standing stock and productivity on the Mississippi-Alabama Sh...
Abstract Diatoms are an important phytoplankton group in this region as they can dominate both the standing stock of phytoplankton and the rate of primary production at times.... -
Direct estimates of reef fish abundance across an artificial reef network
Abstract Fisheries-independent surveys are commonly used to create indices of relative abundance. If properly designed and calibrated, these surveys may also be used to estimate... -

Analyses of shoreline movement to assess sediment stabilization from 2012-10-...
Abstract Satellite imagery imported into ArcGIS software were used to delineate the shoreline (defined as the edge of vegetation) and calculate shoreline movement as a proxy for... -
Seasonal effects on microplankton response to oil perturbation on Mississippi...
Abstract In order to understand the role of biodiversity in increasing resiliency to perturbation, a set of experiments were conducted to examine the response of microplankton... -
Oiling effects on sulfate-reducing bacterial communities in coastal marine se...
Abstract This collection of datasets is generated from high-throughput rRNA gene sequencing of dissimilatory (bi)sulfite reductase (dsrB) gene of sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB)... -
Sublethal effects of oil exposure on infaunal behavior, bioturbation, and sed...
Abstract A mesocosm experiment was conducted at the Dauphin Island Sea Lab during March 2017 to evaluate the effects of the water accommodated fraction (WAF) of oil on animal... -
Coastal Alabama phytoplankton resilience to petrocarbon loading
Abstract Petrocarbon exposure studies were conducted on three isolated clones from coastal Alabama in the Gulf of Mexico including a diatom (Skeletonema spp.), a dinoflagellate... -
