Global warming and local eutrophication simultaneously lower oxygen (O2) saturation and
increase biological O2 demands to cause deoxygenation. Tropical shallow waters, and their …

Coral reefs are suffering unprecedented declines worldwide. Most studies focus on stressors
such as rising temperatures, nutrient pollution, overfishing, and ocean acidification as …

Ocean ecosystems have responded and will continue to respond to climate changes of
different rates, magnitudes, and durations (virtually certain). Human societies depend on …

INTRODUCTION Climate change triggered by volcanic greenhouse gases is hypothesized
to have caused the largest mass extinction in Earth's history at the end of the Permian Period …

" There are more coral species in deep, cold-waters than in tropical coral reefs. This broad-
ranging treatment is the first to synthesise current understanding of all types of cold-water …

Plastic contamination is now recognized as one of the most serious environmental issues for
oceans. Both macro-and microplastic debris are accumulating in surface and deep waters …

Cold-water corals (CWCs) are the engineers of complex ecosystems forming unique
biodiversity hotspots in the deep sea. They are expected to suffer dramatically from future …

White coral communities consist of scleractinian corals that thrive in the ocean's bathyal
depths (~ 200–4000 m). In the Atlantic Ocean, white corals are known to form complex, three …

Aim Globally, species distribution patterns in the deep sea are poorly resolved, with spatial
coverage being sparse for most taxa and true absence data missing. Increasing human …

Ocean acidity has increased by 30% since preindustrial times due to the uptake of
anthropogenic CO2 and is projected to rise by another 120% before 2100 if CO2 emissions …
