A new concept of coastal water upwelling [PDF]
The situations of coastal water upwelling of the world oceans and the limitations of the classical theory of the process are discussed. A linkage is envisaged between the generation of coastal upwelling along the eastern boundary of the ocean with the ...

Caribbean biota underwent major ecological and evolutionary transformation in the Plio-Pleistocene but a lack of detailed paleoenvironmental reconstruction prevents thorough resolution of cause and effect.

Understanding marine biodiversity patterns and drivers: The fall of Icarus
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.

Role of extracellular carbonic anhydrase in the polar diatom Fragilariopsis cylindrus
Summary Diatoms are major primary producers in productive polar oceans, where cold temperatures and high CO2 solubility raise questions as to whether they rely on the CO2‐concentrating mechanism (CCM) to saturate photosynthesis. Knowledge of CCM function will help better predict the sensitivity of diatom primary production to warming and acidifying ...

Metagenomes of the Picoalga Bathycoccus from the Chile Coastal Upwelling
Among small photosynthetic eukaryotes that play a key role in oceanic food webs, picoplanktonic Mamiellophyceae such as Bathycoccus, Micromonas, and Ostreococcus are particularly important in coastal regions. By using a combination of cell sorting by flow cytometry, whole genome amplification (WGA), and 454 pyrosequencing, we obtained metagenomic data ...

Population genetic structure in the Pacific Northwest for (a–c) Nereocystis and (d–f) Macrocystis. Summary Pockets of the formerly glaciated Pacific coastline of North America likely remained ice‐free throughout the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM). These areas may have served as refugia for terrestrial species, but less is known about their role in the ...

Environmental variability in the Gulf of Guinea large marine ecosystem: physical features, forcing and fisheries [PDF]
This thesis examines the forcing and behaviour of oceanographic physical features, relevant to recruitment in fish populations, in the Gulf of Guinea Large Marine Ecosystem, on seasonal and interannual time scales. Remotely sensed sea-surface temperature

Measurement and modeling of diffuse ultraviolet radiation: A review
Solar UV radiation consists of direct and diffuse UV components. The diffuse component contributes to the exposure received by humans and to the risk of skin cancer and sun‐related eye disorders. This review aims to determine future research directions for the measurement and modeling of diffuse solar UV radiation.

Coastal upwelling in the eastern Gulf of California [PDF]
Abstract Understanding and quantifying upwelling is of great importance for marine resource management. Direct measurement of this process is extremely difficult and observed time-series do not exist. However, proxies are commonly derived from different data; most commonly wind-derived.

Distribution and Air-Sea Exchange Flux of CO2 over the Marginal Seas surrounding Taiwan during Late Spring through Early Summer, 2008 [PDF]
[[abstract]]The distribution of CO2 in the surface water and the sea-air flux exchange in the sea areas around Taiwan are investigated in this study, and to discuss the reason of variation and the relationship with the distribution of water mass ...
