Nodular Lesions in the Pyloric Caeca of Sardinella aurita (Teleostei) Associated With the Cestode Anthobothrium sp. 1 Larvae (Platyhelminthes: Eucestoda) Off Tunisia, Mediterranean Sea

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Examination of round sardinella Sardinella aurita Valenciennes, 1847 (Clupeidae) from the Gulf of Tunis (Tunisia) revealed the first local and Mediterranean record of Anthobothrium sp. 1 sensu Jensen & Bullard, 2010 (Tetraphyllidea incertae sedis, Anthobothrium).

Vertical transitions of marine heatwaves influenced by seasonally varying atmospheric forcing and coastal upwelling system

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
Under ongoing global warming, global coastal upwelling systems are increasingly recognized as potential thermal refugia from marine heatwaves, owing to their ability to transport colder subsurface water to the surface.

The consequences of partial clonality on the spatiotemporal genetic structure of the red alga Chondria tumulosa (Ceramiales, Rhodophyta)

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract The relative rates of sexual versus clonal reproduction partition genetic diversity, but the quantification of these rates remains limited in natural populations. This knowledge gap is particularly acute among tropical macroalgae. Chondria tumulosa is a red macroalga that has been documented at high abundance in the three northernmost atolls ...

A semi-idealized study to evaluate the role of topography on the coastal upwelling at Cabo Frio, RJ

open access: yesBoletim do Observatório Ambiental Alberto Ribeiro Lamego, 2013
This work investigates the role of topography on the coastal upwelling efficiency off the coast of Cabo Frio, RJ, through the implementation of process-study numerical simulations in a semi-idealized ocean.

Shifts between gelatinous and crustacean plankton in a coastal upwelling region [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Variability in the dominance of copepods vs. gelatinous plankton was analysed using monthly time-series covering the last 55 years and related to changes in climatic, oceanographic, and fishery conditions in the upwelling region of Galicia (NW Spain ...

Macroalgae respond to consumer‐mediated nutrient cycling in a temperate ecosystem

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Primary production in coastal upwelling regions has often been presumed to be supported primarily by allochthonous nutrients, but inconsistent nutrient delivery and the metabolic cost of nitrate assimilation can leave producers nitrogen limited during the growing season. As a potential supplement for insufficient allochthonous supply, nutrient

When Coriolis Matters: Defining Ranges for Lake Upwelling With a New Conceptual Model

open access: yesWater Resources Research
Historically, two conceptual models for upwelling in stratified lakes have been used. These are the non‐rotational (2D closed basin model) and the coastal model.

Understanding marine biodiversity patterns and drivers: The fall of Icarus

open access: yesMarine Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiversity patterns are fundamental in our understanding of the distribution of life, ecosystem function, and conservation. In this concept analysis, A survey of the existing knowledge on marine biodiversity patterns and drivers across latitudes, longitudes, and depths indicates that none of the postulated patterns represent a rule.

Coastal upwelling seen in ocean temperature data

open access: yes, 2014
The phenomenon of wind-driven upwelling occurs when high coastal winds blow over the ocean surface, pushing warm surface waters offshore and allowing cooler, more nutrient rich water from below to rise up to the surface.
