Hydrosol Filtration, a brief, annotated bibliography
Shimeta, J.S.and P.A. Jumars. 1991. Mechanisms of particle encounter by suspension feeders. Oceanogr. Mar. Biol. Ann. Rev. 29: 191-257. A fairly thorough review, beginning with the seminal paper by Rubenstein and Koehl (1977) in the American Naturalist. The twist introduced here is a focus away from effiency of encounter to rate of encounter.
Riisgard, H.U., and P.S. Larsen. 2001. Minireview: Ciliary filter feeding and bio-fluid mechanics - present understanding and unsolved problems. Limnol. Oceanogr. 46: 882-891. An update on understanding of mechanisms of encounter.
The rest of these references are notable ones after 1991 that deliver different messages.
Allen, J.R. 1998. Suspension feeding in the brittle star Ophiothrix fragilis: efficiency of particle retention and implicattions for the use of encounter-rate models. Mar. Biol. 132: 383-390.
Encounter does not tell the whole story (capture and retention included).
Anthony, K.R.N. 1997. Prey capture by the sea anemone Metridium senile (L.): effects of body size, flow regime, and upstream neighbors. Biol. Bull. 192: 73-86. Effects of morphology and upstream neighbors.
Conova, S. 1999. Role of particle wettability in capture by a suspension-feeding crab (Emerita talpoida). Mar. Biol. 133: 419-428. Role of chemical surface properties (surface tension) in retention.
Finelli, C.M., D.D. Hart, and R.A. Merz. 2002. Stream insects as passive suspension feeders: effects of velocity and food concentration on feeding performance. Oecologia 131: 145-153.
Decompose flux into velocity and concentration components that they manipulated separately and showed to have different effects from one another (some issues of experimental design are worth discussion).
Loo, L.-O., P.R. Jonsson, M. Skold, and O. Karlsson. 1996. Passive suspension feeding in Amphiura filiformis (Echinodermata:Ophiuroidea): feeding behaviour in flume flow and potential feeding rate of field populations. Mar. Ecol. Prog. Ser. 139: 143-155. An early attempt to relate energetics of growth to rates of encounter; a good place to gain an appreciation of the difficulties in relating encounter at the level of an appendage to population-level phenomena.
Sebens, K.P., J. Witting, and B. Helmuth, 1997. Effects of water flow and branch spacing on particle capture by the reef coral Madracis mirabilis. J. Exp. Mar. Biol. Ecol. 211: 1-28. Consider the trade-offs between packing in more encounter appendages (more surface area for encounter) and occlusion of flow over downstream feeding appendages.
Shimeta, J. and M.A.R. Koehl, 1997. Mechanisms of particle selection by tentaculate suspension feeders during encounter, retention, and handling. J. Exp. Mar. Biol. Ecol. 209: 47-73. A clear articulation of the steps from encounter to ingestion.
