Title: Fiddler crab and mollusk density in experimentally manipulated tidal creeks off the Rowley River, (Rowley and Ipswich, MA)
Climate change is predicted to shift or extend the range of warm-water species poleward. In 2014, the fiddler crab was observed for the first time at the PIE LTER site in Northeast Massachusetts, which is north of its historical range. Beginning in 2014, density estimates were collected.  more » « less

  1. Nassarius obsoletus (Ilyanassa obsoleta) length and biomass measurements for Rowley River tidal creeks associated with long term fertilization experiments, Rowley and Ipswich, MA. The TIDE project aims to simulate eutrophication on a large scale by the addition of NO3- aiming to reach 70μM concentrations from May to September every year during the growing season. This fertilization of the marsh has been going on at Sweeney Creek since the 2004 growing season through 2014 and at Clubhead Creek in 2005 and from 2009 till 2014.
