Offshore marine renewable energy devices as stepping stones across biogeographical boundaries [PDF]

Journal of Applied Ecology, 2014
Summary Offshore renewable energy provides an increasing component of our electricity supply. We have limited understanding of the potential environmental impacts of these developments, particularly in the move to larger scales. Surfaces provided by devices offer novel habitat to marine organisms, which may allow species to spread to new areas.

Predicting plankton net community production in the Atlantic Ocean [PDF]

, 2009
We present, test and implement two contrasting models to predict euphotic zone net community production (NCP), which are based on 14C primary production (PO14CP) to NCP relationships over two latitudinal (ca.

Integrating pattern with process at biogeographic boundaries: the legacy of Wallace [PDF]

Ecography, 2010
Biogeography is a vital discipline today because ofits extraordinarily integrative nature, drawing from andinforming biological and Earth sciences in order to explainthe history and future of life on our planet. Yet, even aswe continue to build more sophisticated syntheses usingmolecular genetics, GIS-based distribution modelling, andever-better ...

Dispersal and gene flow in free-living marine nematodes [PDF]

, 2013
Dispersal and gene flow determine connectivity among populations, and can be studied through population genetics and phylogeography. We here review the results of such a framework for free-living marine nematodes.
