attribute NC_GLOBAL acquisition_description String We measured larval abundance, chlorophyll-a, temperature, and salinity from\nfour depths at one location in Fidalgo Bay, WA, by boat each day from July 11\nto July 14, 2017. Each day, we completed eleven sampling events. During each\nsampling event, we collected samples from four depths in the water column:\nsurface (0.5 m below surface), bottom (0.5 m above seafloor), and two mid-\ndepth samples, which evenly split the depth between surface and bottom\nsamples. We planned each sampling event to begin at specific times relative to\nthe predicted low tide with the goal of collecting approximately equal numbers\nof samples during ebb and flood tide.\n \nTo collect each larval sample, we used a modified bilge pump to filter\n100-liters of water from our targeted depths through a 102-\\u00b5m mesh\nplankton net to ensure retention of Olympia oyster larvae. Each sample was\nstored on ice while in the field and then preserved in 70% ethanol. At the end\nof filtering each 100-L sample, we collected 60-ml of bulk seawater from the\npump for measurement of chlorophyll-a. We filtered the 60-ml of seawater\nthrough a glass microfiber filter (WhatmanTM GF/F). The foil-wrapped filters\nwere held on ice in the field and then stored them at -80\\u00b0C for later\nextraction. We measured chlorophyll-a concentration from each filtered sample\nby extracting the chlorophyll-a pigment using 90% acetone for 24 hours in the\ndark at -20\\u00b0C and then reading fluorescence of each sample with a Turner\nTrilogy Fluorometer (Parsons et al. 1984; Welschmeyer 1994). We also\nprogrammed a Hach Environmental Company HydroLab DS5 water quality multiprobe\ninstrument to collect temperature and salinity measurements at the same times\nand depths as our pump sampling. A Hach Hydras 3 Pocket instrument enabled us\nto calibrate, program, and retrieve data from the HydroLab.\n \nThis dataset includes unprocessed data and simple data calculations\naccomplished with R (Version 3.3.2).\n \nWe programmed a Nortek 1MHz Aquadopp acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP)\nto record velocity measurements in 0.3 meter vertical bins every 60 seconds.\nWe then attached the ADCP instrument with sensors facing skyward to steel\ncross-bar frame and deployed it on the seafloor in Fidalgo Bay\\u2019s main\nchannel for four days. We utilized Nortek AS software AquaPro version 1.27 to\nprogram and retrieve current velocity data from the Aquadopp instrument. This\ndataset includes these raw unprocessed data.

attribute NC_GLOBAL project String Climate stressors on larvae
attribute NC_GLOBAL projects_0_acronym String Climate stressors on larvae
attribute NC_GLOBAL projects_0_description String In the face of climate change, future distribution of animals will depend not only on whether they adjust to new conditions in their current habitat, but also on whether a species can spread to suitable locations in a changing habitat landscape. In the ocean, where most species have tiny drifting larval stages, dispersal between habitats is impacted by more than just ocean currents alone; the swimming behavior of larvae, the flow environment the larvae encounter, and the length of time the larvae spend in the water column all interact to impact the distance and direction of larval dispersal. The effects of climate change, especially ocean acidification, are already evident in shellfish species along the Pacific coast, where hatchery managers have noticed shellfish cultures with 'lazy larvae syndrome.' Under conditions of increased acidification, these 'lazy larvae' simply stop swimming; yet, larval swimming behavior is rarely incorporated into studies of ocean acidification. Furthermore, how ocean warming interacts with the effects of acidification on larvae and their swimming behaviors remains unexplored; indeed, warming could reverse 'lazy larvae syndrome.' This project uses a combination of manipulative laboratory experiments, computer modeling, and a real case study to examine whether the impacts of ocean warming and acidification on individual larvae may affect the distribution and restoration of populations of native oysters in the Salish Sea. The project will tightly couple research with undergraduate education at Western Washington University, a primarily undergraduate university, by employing student researchers, incorporating materials into undergraduate courses, and pairing marine science student interns with art student interns to develop art projects aimed at communicating the effects of climate change to public audiences\nAs studies of the effects of climate stress in the marine environment progress, impacts on individual-level performance must be placed in a larger ecological context. While future climate-induced circulation changes certainly will affect larval dispersal, the effects of climate-change stressors on individual larval traits alone may have equally important impacts, significantly altering larval transport and, ultimately, species distribution. This study will experimentally examine the relationship between combined climate stressors (warming and acidification) on planktonic larval duration, morphology, and swimming behavior; create models to generate testable hypotheses about the effects of these factors on larval dispersal that can be applied across systems; and, finally, use a bio-physically coupled larval transport model to examine whether climate-impacted larvae may affect the distribution and restoration of populations of native oysters in the Salish Sea.
