Eat, Prey, Love: Sex influences nest intruder behavior in the maritime earwig (Anisolabis maritima)
(2022)The most common form of parental care in insects is the guarding of eggs/juveniles from intruders. The maritime earwig (Anisolabis maritima), an insect found on beaches worldwide, is an excellent organism for studying ... -
Eddy impact on anthropogenic chemicals in the lee of Hawai’i
(2011-03)Eddies are a common feature in the ocean waters off Hawaii. This study analyzed the natural and anthropogenic chemicals found in the lee of Hawaii. -
Edge of Eden: Epifaunal Biodiversity of Eelgrass Patches in False Bay
(2021)The epifaunal community of an eelgrass patch is biodiverse and affected by multiple variables. The mechanism of edge effects in the marine environment remains uncertain and experiments investigating the relationship between ... -
Edmonds Self-Guided Walking Tour
(2022-06)Constrained by limited resources and funding, small museums often struggle to connect with their communities. COVID-19 worsened this problem when many institutions were forced to shut their doors and rely on alternative ... -
Educate Yourselves: Three Cases of Civic Education in King County Environmental Initiatives
(University of Washington Libraries, 2014)The state of Washington, and King County in particular, have a reputation for vocal public concern over issues of the environment, and a quick look at popular ballot initiatives in the state over the last ... -
Educational Excellence and the Economics of Immigration: Undocumented Latin American Youth and the Neoliberal Knowledge Economy
(University of Washington Libraries, 6/5/2018)This paper examines the ideological superstructure of the Seattle-based Youth Tutoring Program in the context of racial politics in urban design and education. Institutional restrictions to eligibility for public housing ... -
Efects of changing salinity on the lipid composition of Salinivibrio costicola and potential applications as a salinity indicator
(School of Oceanography, University of Washington, 2008-06-19)Salinivibrio costicola is demonstrated to potentially work as a proxy for salinity. Salinity increases in lakes during dry periods, so finding an organism in which salinity changes can be tracked will help track climate ... -
Effect of Acartia grazing on the size distribution of phytoplankton in Academy Bay, Galapagos
(2006-03)The goal of this experiment was to determine if Acartia, a species of zooplankton, fed based on the size of food available. Acartia which more specifically are a type of copepod, have demonstrated this in other experiments. ... -
The effect of age on the adult-produced larval settlement cue in Dendraster excentricus
(2019)A settlement cue produced by adult Pacific sand dollars, Dendraster excentricus, maintains dense aggregations of the species by inducing the metamorphosis of their larvae. This process is well-studied, but the unknown ... -
The effect of Crassostrea gigas size on survival following Pacific Northwest heat dome
(2022)Following a heat dome event in late June- early July 2021, mass shellfish mortalities were reported in Washington State. It is important to study this mortality event given the economic and ecological value of shellfish, ... -
The effect of Crassostrea gigas size on survival following Pacific Northwest heat dome
(2022-05)Following a heat dome event in late June- early July 2021, mass shellfish mortalities were reported in Washington State. It is important to study this mortality event given the economic and ecological value of shellfish, ... -
Effect of cross channel salinity imbalance due to freshwater influence in a narrow estuary
(2015-06)[author abstract] Nootka Sound is a group of narrow and deep fjord-like inlets on the west coast of Vancouver Island. This understudied estuarine system was the focus of an 11 December to 21 December 2014 University of ... -
The Effect of Differential Flow Speeds and Kelp Morphology on Membranipora membranacea Settlement
(2021)Kelp provides important habitats for a large variety of organisms such as epiphytic bryozoans. The relationship between the bryozoan and their kelp substrate is influenced by biological, chemical, and physical factors. ... -
The Effect of Flow on Filtering and Gaping Behavior in Mytilus galloprovinicalis
(2022)As ecosystem engineers, mussels create habitat for many species by ameliorating harsh environments, like extreme wave forces and temperatures. In low flow conditions, however, mussel aggregations may alter their local ... -
Effect of food stress on Obelia geniculata zooid differentiation
(Friday Harbor Laboratories, 2014-06)Colonial hydrozoans are well known for their phenotypic plasticity. Colonies of the Obelia geniculata (Cnidaria:Hydrozoa) maintain distinctly different zooids that are specialized for different tasks. It is not known, ... -

(Friday Harbor Laboratories, 2014-08)Colonial hydrozoans are well known for their phenotypic plasticity. Colonies of the Obelia geniculata (Cnidaria:Hydrozoa) maintain distinctly different zooids that are specialized for different tasks. It is not known, ... -
The effect of fresh and aged Agarum fimbriatum and Nereocystis luetkeana diets on the population growth of Tigriopus californicus
(Friday Harbor Laboratories, 2013-06)The study explores the effect of diets of fresh and aged Agarum fimbriatum and Nereocystis luetkeana on the population growth of Tigriopus californicus. Fresh diets were expected to increase abundance, and the two algal ... -
The Effect of Freshwater Influxes on Pisaster ochraceus Larvae in the Salish Sea
(Friday Harbor Laboratories, 2015-09)Global temperatures have been steadily increasing annually, causing increases in artic ice melting. The resulting freshwater from this artic ice retreat enters local river systems, which flow down to the Pacific Northwest ... -
