Persistent Uncertainties in Ocean Net Primary Production Climate Change Projections at Regional Scales Raise Challenges for Assessing Impacts on Ecosystem Services
Alessandro Tagliabue,Lester Kwiatkowski,Laurent Bopp,Momme Butenschön,William W. L. Cheung,Matthieu Lengaigne,Jérôme Vialard +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed an integrated mechanistic framework that considers how ocean net primary production and marine ecosystems respond to impacts of not only climate change, but also the additional non-climate drivers.

An iron cycle cascade governs the response of equatorial Pacific ecosystems to climate change
Alessandro Tagliabue,Nicolas Barrier,Hubert Du Pontavice,Lester Kwiatkowski,Olivier Aumont,Laurent Bopp,William W. L. Cheung,Didier Gascuel,Olivier Maury +8 more
TL;DR: It is shown that the climate change trends in NPP and the biomass of upper trophic levels are strongly affected by modifying assumptions associated with phytoplankton iron uptake, and that uncertainties in the biological iron cycle cascade through open ocean pelagic ecosystems, from plankton to fish, affecting their evolution under climate change.
Cost of adapting fisheries to climate change
TL;DR: In this article, the authors focused on marine capture fisheries, not inland or aquaculture, for a number of reasons, such as the study of the impact of climate change on fisheries is more advanced in the case of capture fisheries and so the authors have the necessary basic scientific information on which to base their analysis.
