From microbes to large predators, there is increasing evidence that marine life is shaped by
short-lived submesoscales currents that are difficult to observe, model, and explain …

Mesoscale phenomena are ubiquitous and highly energetic features of ocean circulation.
Their influence on biological and biogeochemical processes varies widely, stemming not …

Eddies can influence biogeochemical cycles through a variety of mechanisms, including the
excitation of vertical velocities and the horizontal advection of nutrients and ecosystems …

The massive number of seabirds (penguins and procellariiformes) and marine mammals
(cetaceans and pinnipeds)–referred to here as top predators–is one of the most iconic …

Mesoscale ocean eddies are ubiquitous coherent rotating structures of water with radial
scales on the order of 100 kilometers. Eddies play a key role in the transport and mixing of …

Decreasing concentrations of dissolved oxygen in the ocean are considered one of the main
threats to marine ecosystems as they jeopardize the growth of higher organisms. They also …

Abstract The Tara Pacific expedition (2016–2018) sampled coral ecosystems around 32
islands in the Pacific Ocean and the ocean surface waters at 249 locations, resulting in the …

Incidental catch of nontarget species (bycatch) is a major barrier to ecological and economic
sustainability in marine capture fisheries. Key to mitigating bycatch is an understanding of …

The notion of a Lagrangian Coherent Structure (LCS) is by now well established as a way to
capture transient coherent transport dynamics in unsteady and aperiodic fluid flows that are …

Here we present first observations, from instrumentation installed on moorings and a float, of
unexpectedly low (< 2 μmol kg− 1) oxygen environments in the open waters of the tropical …
