Amphipods, oh my!

Courtney

I am currently working on amphipod abundance surveys and amphipod predation assays, as well as, analyzing my data from my Gracilaria field experiments.  The number of tethered amphipods remaining in the field after 24 hours has decreased. It looks like the amphipod predation rate has increased this summer while the number of amphipods in the field has decreased.  I will keep you posted on my Gracilaria experiment results as they come in.

This graph shows that the number of amphipods eaten increased this summer.

This graph indicates a decrease in amphipod abundance during this summer.
