Anticipating the winds of change: A baseline assessment of Northeastern US continental shelf surficial substrates

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract The introduction of thousands of wind turbines along the North American Atlantic continental shelf over the next decade will constitute the largest regional change in marine substrates since the retreat of the Laurentide Ice Sheet over 14,000 years ago. Here, two large data sets, SMAST drop camera survey (242,949 samples, 2003 to 2019) and the

Large‐scale depth‐related seasonal distribution patterns of a benthic‐feeding sea duck in two contrasting marine systems

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Moulting and overwintering Common Scoter Melanitta nigra aggregate in largely undisturbed, shallow‐water marine areas, preying upon sessile benthic organisms (mainly bivalves), which do not reproduce during this period of exploitation. Assuming even prey distribution, we predict that Common Scoters would aggregate to moult in shallowest waters with ...

Origin and Biogeography of the Colourful Sap‐Sucking Sea Slugs Genus Thuridilla Bergh, 1872 (Mollusca, Gastropoda, Heterobranchia)

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Thuridilla Bergh, 1872, is a lineage of herbivorous sea slugs externally distinguished by bright colours and distinctive patterns of lines and spots. Recent work revealed an exceptionally rapid, cryptic radiation of 13 species in the Indo‐Pacific, raising questions about mechanisms of speciation in this group.

Effects of Taxonomic Uncertainty on Range Size and Niche Estimation in a Southern Ocean Cryptic Species Complex

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Understanding how biodiversity varies over space and time is critical for informing environmental policy and decision making. The application of molecular techniques for sequencing organisms has increased the ability to identify cryptic species, which provides a source of taxonomic uncertainty that can potentially affect such decisions ...
