Climate change and control of the southeastern Bering Sea pelagic ecosystem (2002, background): “More information is required about the consumption of zooplankton by larval fish (e.g., Dagg et al., 1984; Hillgruber et al., 1995; Napp et al., 1996, 2000), juvenile pollock (Ciannelli et al., 1998; Schabetsberger et al., 2000) and other forage fish under a variety of temperature and prey-density…”
Climate-induced variability in Calanus marshallae populations (2003, background): “A rough estimate of prey carbon available before the bloom is ~12 µg C l–1 [heterotrophic microplankton 1–10 µg C l–1 (Howell-Kübler et al., 1996); nauplii 0.6–1.0 µg C l–1 (Napp et al., 2000); Oithona spp. ~0.07 µg C l–1; unpublished results].”
The Bering Sea—A dynamic food web perspective (2007, background): “Copepods are a major prey for zooplanktivores, particularly larval and juvenile walleye pollock (Theragra chalcogramma; Napp et al., 2000; Ciannelli et al., 2004a), and variation in their bloom timing may be critical to determining juvenile pollock survival, as described below.”
Bottom-up and top-down controls of walleye pollock ( Theragra chalcogramma) on the Eastern Bering Sea shelf (2006, background): “This variability leads to interannual variations in the food supply of larval pollock, particularly on the outer shelf ( Napp et al., 2000 ), and therefore affects the growth and survival of larval walleye pollock.”
