Zooplankton are major consumers of phytoplankton primary production in marine
ecosystems. As such, they represent a critical link for energy and matter transfer between …

BACKGROUND Tropical Pacific decadal climate variability and change (TPDV) affects the
global climate system, extreme weather events, agricultural production, streamflow, marine …

Ocean and coastal ecosystems support life on Earth and many aspects of human well-being.
Covering two-thirds of the planet, the ocean hosts vast biodiversity and modulates the global …

Abstract Changes in the Arctic atmosphere, cryosphere and Ocean are drastically altering
the dynamics of phytoplankton, the base of marine ecosystems. This Review addresses four …

The Arctic marine biome, shrinking with increasing temperature and receding sea-ice cover,
is tightly connected to lower latitudes through the North Atlantic. By flowing northward …

Coastal zones have large social, economic and environmental values. They are more
densely populated than the hinterland and concentrate large economic assets, critical …

Abrupt ecological shifts have become a pervasive feature of aquatic ecosystems with severe
socio-ecological consequences. Yet, it remains uncertain whether these shifts happened …

Potential climate tipping points pose a growing risk for societies, and policy is calling for
improved anticipation of them. Satellite remote sensing can play a unique role in identifying …

The impact of climate change on diversity, functioning and biogeography of marine plankton
remains a major unresolved issue. Here environmental niches are evidenced for plankton …

Six baleen whale species are found in the temperate western North Atlantic Ocean, with
limited information existing on the distribution and movement patterns for most. There is …
