The authors used 43 freshwater, marine and climate indices to examine 72 river sites in Washington, Oregon, California and Idaho. {\textquotedblleft}As the climate continues to change, it becomes more evident that maintaining a mindset encompassing static processes limits our abilities to explain patterns among environmental indices. This recognition in the context of multiple climatic teleconnections will help foster the development and utility of more resilient methodological approaches that account for changing correlations{\textquotedblright} (p.17).

	title = {Big Fishery, Big Data, and Little Crabs: Using a Genomic Approach to Examine Larval Recruitment Patterns of Dungeness Crab (<i>Cancer magister</i>) in the California Current Ecosystem},
	year = {2019},
	note = {The California Current Ecosystem is a highly productive area of offshore waters extending from southern California to southern British Columbia. Its most valuable commodity is the Dungeness crab.  The Dungeness crab fishery is by far the most valuable fishery on the North American west coast. Intensive study of Dungeness crabs in Coos Bay indicates that ocean conditions affect the number of surviving larval crabs (megalopae) and their distribution.  In this Master{\textquoteright}s thesis, the author reports on studies of larval crabs in 2014, 1017 and 2018 in Coos Bay and Yaquina Bay.  The author{\textquoteright}s aim was {\textquotedblleft}was to better understand how ocean conditions influence larval transport and the ultimate population connectivity of the Dungeness crab within and between the marine ecosystems along the west coast of North America: the California Current Ecosystem (CCE), the Salish Sea Ecosystem (SSE), and the Gulf of Alaska Ecosystem (GOA){\textquotedblright} (from the Abstract).  By better understanding genetics, researchers will better understand population connectivity, an important part of species{\textquoteright} resilience in a time of climate change.
