The Greenland–Scotland Ridge in a Changing Ocean: Time to Act?

open access: yesMarine Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Greenland–Scotland Ridge is a submarine mountain that rises up to 500 m below the sea surface and extends from the east coast of Greenland to the continental shelf of Iceland and across the Faroe Islands to Scotland. The ridge not only separates deeper ocean basins on either side, that is, the North Atlantic and Arctic oceans, but also ...

Effects of temperature on sexual competition in three kelp species, Pterygophora californica, Nereocystis luetkeana, and Macrocystis pyrifera: Implications for range shifts in foundation species

open access: yesPhycological Research, EarlyView.
SUMMARY Kelp forests are threatened by rising ocean temperatures. However, the effects of warming on early life stage interactions among co‐occurring kelp species, particularly competitive dynamics and reproductive timing, remain poorly understood. This study investigates the effects of temperature on embryonic sporophyte competitive interactions and ...

The Coral Larval Box “CoLaB”: a novel and low‐cost method for delivering competent coral larvae onto degraded reefs for restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Coral reef restoration strategies are rapidly evolving to restore corals and reef functions in response to accelerating disturbances worldwide. One active restoration technique that is rapidly gaining momentum is the larval enhancement method which involves the introduction of cultured coral larvae directly onto degraded reefs ...

Specialized Committees of International Organizations an Important Source of Organizational Autonomy

open access: yesRegulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Assigning the preparation of decisions to specialized committees composed of member state representatives is a widespread response to the ‘governor's dilemma’, that is, the tension between competence and control, in international organizations (IOs). We theorize a causal mechanism referring to self‐selection and agenda‐setting effects and show

Trawling disturbance on benthic ecosystems and consequences on commercial species: a northwestern Mediterranean case study

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2014
Trawling is known to disturb benthic communities and habitats, which may in turn indirectly affect populations of commercial species that live in close association with the seabed.

Secondary production (zooplankton and benthos)

open access: yes, 1983
In order to understand the dynamics of an ecosystem, it is necessary to determine the contribution of the different groups to total biomass as well as to evaluate their turnover rates and the amount of organic matter that each produces per unit time.

Effects of salinization on tropical freshwater wetland primary producers and aquatic invertebrates

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2026, Issue 2, February 2026.
Sea level rise is expected to transform coastal aquatic ecosystems world‐wide. The freshwater wetlands of tropical northern Australia are among the most biodiverse and productive ecosystems on the continent, but owing to high regional rates of sea level rise coupled with low‐lying land and large tides they are increasingly affected by saltwater ...
