Effects of eutrophication on bottom habitat and prey resources of demersal fishes (2005, background): “If low-oxygen conditions are relatively mild, some of these demersal consumers may remain in the vicinity and, over the short term, exploit stunned or moribund benthic prey resources not normally available (Pihl et al. 1992, Pihl 1994, Seitz et al. 2003).”
Broad-scale effects of hypoxia on benthic community structure in Chesapeake Bay, USA (2009, background): “Sessile organisms may stretch bodies or body extensions (e.g., bivalve siphons) into the water column in an attempt to reach higher oxygen levels farther up in the water column (Jørgensen, 1980; Taylor and Eggleston, 2000; Seitz et al., 2003).”
Behavioral effects of low dissolved oxygen on the bivalve Macoma balthica (2008, methodology): “Tolerant of hypoxia, it can survive for an average of 15 days under near anoxic (0mgO2 l ) conditions (Brafield, 1963) and extends its siphons farther into the water column in response to hypoxia (Seitz et al., 2003).”
Hypoxia-induced habitat shifts and energetic consequences in Atlantic croaker and brown shrimp on the Gulf of Mexico shelf (2005, background): “…and impaired escape responses of hypoxia-stressed benthic prey have been reported in several systems (Rahel & Nutzman 1994, Nestlerode & Diaz 1998, Seitz et al. 2003), as have longer-term changes in diet and benthic community structure associated with low dissolved oxygen (Pihl 1994, Diaz &…”
