TLDR
In this paper, the authors investigated the potential effect of climate change on the distribution and diversity of marine top predators and found that, based on data from electronic tags on 23 marine species, a change in core habitat range of up to 35% is possible for some species by 2100.Abstract:
Climate change scenarios predict an average sea surface temperature rise of 1–6 °C by 2100. Now, a study investigating the potential effect of these changes on the distribution and diversity of marine top predators finds that, based on data from electronic tags on 23 marine species, a change in core habitat range of up to 35% is possible for some species by 2100.read more

Seasonal Photoacclimation in the North Pacific Transition Zone
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors re-examine the physical and biological drivers of seasonal TZCF variability using a variety of remote sensing, reanalysis, and in situ data sets and demonstrate how the seasonality of light and nutrient fluxes decouple chlorophyll and carbon seasonality at the transition zone latitudes.

Ecological and Evolutionary Responses to Recent Climate Change
TL;DR: Range-restricted species, particularly polar and mountaintop species, show severe range contractions and have been the first groups in which entire species have gone extinct due to recent climate change.

TL;DR: Estimates of extinction risks for sample regions that cover some 20% of the Earth's terrestrial surface show the importance of rapid implementation of technologies to decrease greenhouse gas emissions and strategies for carbon sequestration.

Species Distribution Models: Ecological Explanation and Prediction Across Space and Time
Jane Elith,John R. Leathwick +1 more
TL;DR: Species distribution models (SDMs) as mentioned in this paper are numerical tools that combine observations of species occurrence or abundance with environmental estimates, and are used to gain ecological and evolutionary insights and to predict distributions across landscapes, sometimes requiring extrapolation in space and time.

TL;DR: This empirical work supports long-standing theory about the role of top-down forcing in ecosystems but also highlights the unanticipated impacts of trophic cascades on processes as diverse as the dynamics of disease, wildfire, carbon sequestration, invasive species, and biogeochemical cycles.

Climate change affects marine fishes through the oxygen limitation of thermal tolerance.
Hans-Otto Pörtner,Rainer Knust +1 more
TL;DR: It is shown in the eelpout, Zoarces viviparus, a bioindicator fish species for environmental monitoring from North and Baltic Seas, that thermally limited oxygen delivery closely matches environmental temperatures beyond which growth performance and abundance decrease, which will be the first process to cause extinction or relocation to cooler waters.
