Carpinteria Salt Marsh Reserve

01 Jul, 12 AM - 30 Jun, 11 AM

We will continue our exploration of the role parasitism plays in shaping ecosystem structure and function. Specific planned projects will focus on parasite-increased-trophic transmission (PITT) and the role of parasites as prey. The parasites we focus on are digenean trematodes. We will perform observational and experimental studies to examine PITT for several host species, e.g., Polydora nuchalis polychaetes, Tagelus spp. jackknife clams, and Clevelandia ios gobies. We will also examine the importance of the free-swimming parasite stages as food for these animals.
