  • Fatty acid profiles in the gonads of the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis on natural algal diets 

    Kelly, Jennifer R., Robert E. Scheibling, Sara J. Iverson, and Patrick Gagnon. 2008. "Fatty acid profiles in the gonads of the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis on natural algal diets." Marine Ecology Progress Series 373: 1-9. doi:10.3354/meps07746
    We examined fatty acid (FA) compositions of gonads of the green sea urchin Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis collected from a grazing aggregation (front) at the edge of a kelp bed and from barrens dominated by coralline ...
  • Fatty acids tracers for native and invasive macroalgae in an experimental food web 

    Kelly, Jennifer R., Robert E. Scheibling, and Sara J. Iverson. 2009. "Fatty acids tracers for native and invasive macroalgae in an experimental food web." Marine Ecology Progress Series 391: 53-63. doi:10.3354/meps08234
    We assessed the potential of fatty acid (FA) markers for tracing primary production from an invasive green alga (Codium fragile ssp. fragile) and a native kelp (Saccharina longicruris) through 2 trophic levels in an ...
