    String acquisition_description 
"We observed the behavior of individual crabs in situ. In each habitat, we
collected groups of five adult A. pisonii by hand and determined the sex and
carapace width (to the nearest 0.1mm) of each individual. The groups of crabs
were made up of the first five individuals that we encountered and could
capture and were drawn from all accessible habitat. We then painted the
carapace of each crab an identifying color with nail polish to aid in
identification and visibility. Following a short period of observation to
ensure normal behavior, we released the crabs onto a single tree within 10 m
of the collection tree of all individuals (mangrove), onto separate S.
alterniflora stalks within 10 m of the area of collection (saltmarsh), or onto
the same piling (dock) of the dock where all individuals were captured.
Release in the saltmarsh occurred during the rising tide when the crabs had no
access to the sediment.
 
We observed crabs in the mangrove and saltmarsh habitats from the time they
lost access to the sediment until the receding tide once again allowed access
to the sediment (~6h depending on site and day). In contrast, we observed
crabs on docks from three hours before slack high tide until three hours after
slack high tide. The total time of observation, in minutes, was recorded.
Throughout the observational period we recorded the position of the crab as in
sun or shade. We calculated the proportion of time during the observational
period that each crab spent in the sun and shade.
 
To further examine the thermal habitat experienced by the observed crabs, we
used a FLIR instruments C2 compact thermal imaging camera to take a thermal
image of each visible marked crab every 15 minutes throughout the
observational period. The days when crabs were observed took place over a
wider range of air temperatures, which was measured on site, in the mangrove
and saltmarsh habitats than on docks. Thus, to avoid the confounding factor of
relatively cooler air temperatures in these habitats, only thermal pictures
taken on days which had an average air temperature greater than 29oC were
examined. We then employed the program FLIR tools to obtain the temperature at
the center of the carapace of each crab.
 
We averaged the recorded body temperature of individual crabs over the course
of an observational period. We expected that the solar radiation experienced
by crabs over the course of an observational period (~6h depending on site and
day) would impact their body temperature. Thus, to examine the impact of solar
exposure on crab temperature, we obtained short and long-wave solar radiation
from the NCEP North American Regional Reanalysis (NARR). NARR has a resolution
of 32km and calculates solar radiation in 3hr intervals. We obtained the solar
radiation at the grid point closest to each site and averaged the sum of the
short and long-wave solar radiation over the observational period. This
number, in W/m2 was then multiplied by the number of seconds the crab was
observed to spend in the sun to obtain a relative measure of the solar energy
experienced over the observational period. This calculated variable will
hereafter be referred to as \\u201csolar exposure\\u201d.
 
Average crab body temperature was calculated as the average body temperature,
obtained from thermal photos, over the course of the observational period.
 
Proportion of time in sun and water were both calculated as the proportion of
minutes that crab was observed in the sun or water during the observational
period.
 
Relative solar exposure was calculated by using NARR to obtain the solar
radiation at the grid point closest to each site and averaging the sum of the
short and long-wave solar radiation over the observational period. This
number, in W/m2 was then multiplied by the number of seconds the crab was
observed to spend in the sun over the course of the observational period to
obtain a relative measure of the solar energy experienced over the
observational period.

"Description from NSF award abstract:
A major goal of biological and ecological sciences is to understand natural systems well enough to predict how species and populations will respond to a rapidly changing world (i.e., climate change, habitat loss, etc.). A population under any conditions will grow, shrink, or disappear altogether depending on how efficiently individuals consume resources (food), utilize that food metabolically, and eventually reproduce. However, making accurate predictions based on these metabolic processes is complicated by the realities that each species has different resource requirements and that no two individuals within a species are exactly alike. Rather, individuals vary and this variation, both within and across species, is central to many ecological and evolutionary processes. Developing the ability to predict responses of biological systems to a changing world therefore requires a mechanistic understanding of variation. The goal of this project is to improve this mechanistic understanding by examining variation within a metabolic context across a range of species that have a spectrum of commonly-seen resource requirements. Further, the work capitalizes on a unique biological characteristic of this group of species that allows control and manipulation of individual reproduction, facilitating experimental study of the mechanistic links between variation in individual consumption, metabolism, and reproduction. The foundation this research is a combination of field measurements and laboratory experiments using both well-established and newly-developed techniques to quantify these links. The result will be a quantitative framework to predict how individuals will respond reproductively to changes in resource use. Because of the close link between individual reproduction and population dynamics, this research will contribute substantially to predictions in population dynamics under realistic conditions where individuals use more than a single resource, and improve the prediction of responses to current and future ecological changes.

Using tabledap to Request Data and Graphs from Tabular Datasets

tabledap lets you request a data subset, a graph, or a map from a tabular dataset (for example, buoy data), via a specially formed URL. tabledap uses the OPeNDAP (external link) Data Access Protocol (DAP) (external link) and its selection constraints (external link).

The URL specifies what you want: the dataset, a description of the graph or the subset of the data, and the file type for the response.

Tabledap request URLs must be in the form
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/datasetID.fileType{?query}
For example,
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/pmelTaoDySst.htmlTable?longitude,latitude,time,station,wmo_platform_code,T_25&time>=2015-05-23T12:00:00Z&time<=2015-05-31T12:00:00Z
Thus, the query is often a comma-separated list of desired variable names, followed by a collection of constraints (e.g., variable<value), each preceded by '&' (which is interpreted as "AND").

For details, see the tabledap Documentation.
