There is growing evidence that climate and anthropogenic influences on marine ecosystems are largely manifested by changes in species spatial dynamics. However, less is known about how shifts in species distributions might alter predator-prey overlap and the dynamics of prey populations. We developed a general approach to quantify species spatial overlap and identify the biotic and abiotic vari...

DNA storage is an emerging technology that could be used for long-term data storage due to its massive storage capacity and longevity. In this report firstly, we cover the background of DNA storage in general, including the limits set by the current state of technology regarding the synthesis and sequencing of DNA. Secondly, we cover the fundamental limits and tradeoffs of DNA storage under a s...

Understanding mechanisms behind variability in early life survival of marine fishes through modeling efforts can improve predictive capabilities for recruitment success under changing climate conditions. Walleye pollock (Theragra chalcogramma) support the largest single-species commercial fishery in the United States and represent an ecologically important component of the Bering Sea ecosystem....
