Finding females: pheromone-guided reproductive tracking behavior by male Nereis succinea in the marine environment (2008)
Journal Article
Ram, J. L., Fei, X., Danaher, S. M., Lu, S., Breithaupt, T., & Hardege, J. D. (2008). Finding females: pheromone-guided reproductive tracking behavior by male Nereis succinea in the marine environment. The journal of experimental biology, 211(5), 757-765. https://doi.org/10.1242/jeb.012773

Pheromones trigger reproductive responses of many marine organisms, but little is known about how pheromones mediate mate-finding behavior in the marine environment. This paper investigates whether the tetrapeptide nereithione (cysteine-glutathione d...

Sex-specific mediation of foraging in the shore crab, Carcinus maenas (2007)
Journal Article
Hayden, D., Jennings, A., Müller, C., Pascoe, D., Bublitz, R., Webb, H., Breithaupt, T., Watkins, L., & Hardege, J. (2007). Sex-specific mediation of foraging in the shore crab, Carcinus maenas. Hormones and Behavior, 52(2), 162-168. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.yhbeh.2007.03.004

Experiments were conducted to investigate the sex-specific differences to feeding responses of the shore crab Carcinus maenas throughout the year. Results demonstrate that female shore crabs exhibit stronger feeding responses than males throughout th... Read More about Sex-specific mediation of foraging in the shore crab, Carcinus maenas.

Exposure of benthic invertebrates to sediment vibration: From laboratory experiments to outdoor simulated pile-driving
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Harding, H. R., Voellmy, I., Simpson, S. D., Radford, A. N., Breithaupt, T., Elliott, M., Roberts, L., Simpson, S., Bruintjes, R., Harding, H., Radford, A., & Voellmy, I. K. Exposure of benthic invertebrates to sediment vibration: From laboratory experiments to outdoor simulated pile-driving

Activities directly interacting with the seabed, such as pile-driving, can produce vibrations that have the potential to impact benthic invertebrates within their vicinity. This stimuli may interfere with crucial behaviors such as foraging and predat...
