Fishpond Fever: Loko I'a o He'eia. Wednesday, March 23, 2011. Little Shop of Cores: What Lives in He'eia's Sediments. Behold: The World Beneath Our Tabis! An assortment of worms and amphipods found in sediment cores from mangrove removal areas. The plant fragments are mangrove rhizome fibers. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). This blog is about my continuing research on the food web of He'eia Fishpond. I created it to share my work and fishpond experiences with people in a timely and interesting way.

Fishpond Fever: Loko I'a o He'eia. Wednesday, March 16, 2011. What is an ecosystem engineer? Contents of one clump of G. salicornia. From a shallow reef at Ala Moana. These include sponges, ascidians, larval fish, invasive and native algae, and crabs. Other clumps contained juvenile sea cucumbers and other fish species. A recent introduction to the islands has not prevented G. salicornia. From becoming both an effective invader and a new habitat for benthic species. Alters nutrient concentration and sedi...

http://fishpondfever.blogspot.com/p/glossary.html
Fishpond Fever: Loko I'a o He'eia. Some Hawai'ian words and some ecological words recur frequently in my blog posts. For reference, here are some definitions. Feel free to leave a comment if there's a word you don't know. I will periodically add words. The displacement or mixing of sediments by benthic organisms (can be plants, animals, protists, fungi). It influences the aeration of the sediments, changing sediment chemistry and mixing particles. Bitter, brown polyphenol compounds found in plants. T...

For sale in a Chinatown fish market. I’m predominantly interested in fish that are important to Hawai’ian aquaculture (awa’awa, moi, and aholehole). I will gather carbon and nitrogen stable isotope data from these fish as well as primary producers (e.g., microalgae — see “Mystery of the Fuzz, May 31 — and Gracilaria salicornia, an invasive macroalgae), invertebrates (alpheids and crabs), and predators that consume both juvenile fish and invertebrates. Questions that I hope to answer include:. At a market...
