Transient shifts in Bering Sea shelf phytoplankton size structure in response to wind‐induced mixing
Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 1, January 2026.Abstract Phytoplankton community size structure is a key attribute that influences pelagic trophic energy transfer and the vertical flux of organic matter to benthic food webs. To capture the ephemeral scale of phytoplankton population size spectra we developed an approach, combining long‐term survey datasets, machine learning modeling and 3 yr of high‐

Harnessing Population Genomics, Gut Microbiota, and Environmental DNA Surveillance for the Conservation of Chinese Spotted Seals in a Changing World [PDF]
Ecol EvolMarine mammals are sentinel species for ocean and human health. Multiple anthropogenic and environmental stressors threaten these organisms, particularly China's spotted seals, which have experienced significant decline over the past half‐century. Our review reveals low genetic diversity in Chinese spotted seal populations.
