This ecosystem is home to several species including the habitat forming California mussel and refugia algal species: Endocladia muricata and Silvetia compressa which may be sensitive to thermal shifts. In order to achieve an understanding of these dynamics, the establishment of long term monitoring is essential to track patterns of weather and species cover over time. A key aspect of long-term monitoring is understanding what causes changes in community structure. In order to better understand how temperature affects rocky intertidal species, temperature loggers on each site are co-located with biological point-intercept species plots. Using 7 years of temperature data from two sites on Santa Rosa Island, we investigate thermal trends and extreme heat as related to rocky intertidal biological abundance and diversity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The two sites on Santa Rosa Island being studied are Bechers Bay (34.00, -120.04) and Skunk Point (33.99, -120.00). Each site contains a total of 20 point-intercept plots with an associated iButton thermal logger (5 per intertidal zone \u2013 low, mid, high, and splash). Each zone has unique temperature characteristics due to different emersion rates during high and low tides, but each of the 20 plots also host their own unique microhabitat that is independent of the others. Therefore, the impact of temperatures on both zones and individual plots can be made. Correlations between species abundance and diversity with temperature will be discussed in order to predict how a warming climate may affect rocky intertidal species assemblages in the future.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Details<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Session 1<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>11:15am \u2013 12:30pm<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Del Norte Hall<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Room B<\/strong>: <strong>1545<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-comments\">\n\n\n\n\n\n\t<div id=\"respond\" class=\"comment-respond wp-block-post-comments-form\">\n\t\t<h3 id=\"reply-title\" class=\"comment-reply-title\">Leave a Reply <small><a rel=\"nofollow\" id=\"cancel-comment-reply-link\" href=\"\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/192#respond\" style=\"display:none;\">Cancel reply<\/a><\/small><\/h3><form action=\"https:\/\/src.cikeys.com\/2023\/wp-comments-post.php\" method=\"post\" id=\"commentform\" class=\"comment-form\"><p class=\"comment-notes\"><span id=\"email-notes\">Your email address will not be published.<\/span> <span class=\"required-field-message\">Required fields are marked <span class=\"required\">*<\/span><\/span><\/p><p class=\"comment-form-comment\"><label for=\"comment\">Comment <span class=\"required\">*<\/span><\/label> <textarea id=\"comment\" name=\"comment\" cols=\"45\" rows=\"8\" maxlength=\"65525\" required><\/textarea><\/p><p class=\"comment-form-author\"><label for=\"author\">Name <span class=\"required\">*<\/span><\/label> <input id=\"author\" name=\"author\" type=\"text\" value=\"\" size=\"30\" maxlength=\"245\" autocomplete=\"name\" required \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"comment-form-email\"><label for=\"email\">Email <span class=\"required\">*<\/span><\/label> <input id=\"email\" name=\"email\" type=\"email\" value=\"\" size=\"30\" maxlength=\"100\" aria-describedby=\"email-notes\" autocomplete=\"email\" required \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"comment-form-url\"><label for=\"url\">Website<\/label> <input id=\"url\" name=\"url\" type=\"url\" value=\"\" size=\"30\" maxlength=\"200\" autocomplete=\"url\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"comment-form-cookies-consent\"><input id=\"wp-comment-cookies-consent\" name=\"wp-comment-cookies-consent\" type=\"checkbox\" value=\"yes\" \/> <label for=\"wp-comment-cookies-consent\">Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment.<\/label><\/p>\n<p class=\"form-submit\"><input name=\"submit\" type=\"submit\" id=\"submit\" class=\"submit\" value=\"Post Comment\" \/> <input type='hidden' name='comment_post_ID' value='192' id='comment_post_ID' \/>\n<input type='hidden' name='comment_parent' id='comment_parent' value='0' \/>\n<\/p><p style=\"display: none !important;\" class=\"akismet-fields-container\" data-prefix=\"ak_\"><label>&#916;<textarea name=\"ak_hp_textarea\" cols=\"45\" rows=\"8\" maxlength=\"100\"><\/textarea><\/label><input type=\"hidden\" id=\"ak_js_1\" name=\"ak_js\" value=\"12\"\/><script>\ndocument.getElementById( \"ak_js_1\" ).setAttribute( \"value\", ( new Date() ).getTime() );\n<\/script>\n<\/p><\/form>\t<\/div><!-- #respond -->\n\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Colby Klaiman &amp;
