TL;DR: In marine ecosystems, rising atmospheric CO2 and climate change are associated with concurrent shifts in temperature, circulation, stratification, nutrient input, oxygen content, and ocean acidification, with potentially wide-ranging biological effects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Model of a coral reef ecosystem
TL;DR: In this article, the benthic net primary production and net community production of the atoll based on metabolism studies of reef flat, knolls, and lagoon communities at French Frigate Shoals Hawaii were estimated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ocean's least productive waters are expanding
TL;DR: A 9-year time series of SeaWiFS remotely-sensed ocean color data is used to examine temporal trends in the ocean's most oligotrophic waters, those with surface chlorophyll not exceeding 0.07 mg chl/m3 as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
The transition zone chlorophyll front, a dynamic global feature defining migration and forage habitat for marine resources
TL;DR: In this paper, a transition zone chlorophyll front (TZCF) was observed to have a strong influence on the spatial distribution of loggerhead turtles and albacore tuna in the North Pacific.
Journal ArticleDOI
Forage and migration habitat of loggerhead (Caretta caretta) and olive ridley (Lepidochelys olivacea) sea turtles in the central North Pacific Ocean

TL;DR: Satellite telemetry from 26 loggerhead (Caretta caretta) and 10 olive ridley (Lepidochelys olivacea) sea turtles captured and released from pelagic longline fishing gear provided information on the turtles' position and movement in the central North Pacific.
