GIS-based multi-criteria evaluation models for identifying suitable sites for Japanese scallop (Mizuhopecten yessoensis) aquaculture in Funka Bay, southwestern Hokkaido, Japan (2008, background): “…of sea temperature, food availability (measured as chlorophyll-a), suspended sediment and bathymetry on the growth of bivalves has been well documented, especially for scallops (e.g., MacDonald and Thompson, 1985; Bacher et al., 2003) andmussel (e.g., Hatcher et al., 1994; Ellis et al., 2002).”
Assessing far-field effects of terrigenous sediment loading in the coastal marine environment (2006, background): “…shelf (Foster & Carter 1997, Wheatcroft et al. 1997, Wheatcroft & Borgeld 2000), and increased concentrations of inedible particles and the clogging of the filtration apparatus could impact the condition and growth of large suspension feeders over broad spatial scales (Ellis et al. 2002).”
Habitat change in estuaries: predicting broad-scale responses of intertidal macrofauna to sediment mud content (2003, background): “These responses are likely to be complex interactions between life history, feeding, reproduction and mobility of species, and hydrodynamic and biogeochemical processes, that will require detailed study to resolve (Snelgrove & Butman 1994, Schaffner et al. 2001, Ellis et al. 2002).”
Glass sponges arrest pumping in response to sediment: implications for the physiology of the hexactinellid conduction system (2008, background): “Many suspension-feeding animals avoid being clogged with sediment by temporarily stopping or reducing feeding (e.g., Mackie et al. 1974; Bock and Miller 1996; Ellis et al. 2002 ).”
Effects of terrigenous sedimentation on mangrove physiology and associated macrobenthic communities (2004, background): “The collection efficiency (i.e. whether the material collected in the traps represents what is suspended in the water column) was tested in a previous study (Ellis et al. 2002) and demonstrated that the traps provide a representative sample.”
