ABSTRACT Biophysical processes associated with large‐scale nearshore oceanographic upwelling can influence coral reef communities by increasing the delivery of nutrient subsidies and food resources to reefs. However, these processes occur alongside anthropogenic activities that may alter ecological patterns across coral reef ecosystems.

About Pigmented Nanoflagellates and the Importance of Mixotrophy in a Coastal Upwelling System
Mixotrophy, understood as food ingestion and photosynthesis occurring in the same organism, is a nutrition mode relatively common in marine protists.

ABSTRACT We developed and evaluated a fishery‐dependent catch‐per‐unit‐effort (CPUE)‐based proxy index for juvenile Japanese anchovy (Engraulis japonicus) recruitment‐related variability in the southeastern coastal waters of Korea. The proxy was constructed from bimonthly CPUE of the smallest juvenile size class (20–40 mm) in the anchovy drag‐net ...

Support for the intermittent upwelling hypothesis using 10 years of barnacle recruitment data from a western ocean boundary in Atlantic Canada [PDF]
Recruitment is a key demographic step for the persistence of populations, so understanding its drivers has traditionally been a relevant goal of ecology. On marine rocky shores, coastal oceanography is an important driver of the recruitment of intertidal

ABSTRACT Marine waters are becoming warmer and acidified and experiencing more intense and longer heatwaves under climate change. These changes are already impacting marine ecosystems and seafood production, which are vital for supporting food security and economic productivity.

Nutrient fluxes and net metabolism in a coastal lagoon SW peninsula of Baja California, Mexico
Fluxes of nutrients and net metabolism were estimated in coastal lagoon Magdalena Bay using LOICZ biogeochemical model. In situ data were obtained from 14 sites in the lagoon and also from a fixed site in the adjacent ocean area.

ABSTRACT The seabob shrimp (Xiphopenaeus spp.) is a primary fishery resource in Brazil, with considerable economic and social importance along the coast. While environmental drivers of its life cycle are well‐documented for southeastern and southern populations, the factors modulating populations in the Eastern Brazilian Shelf remain poorly understood,

Toward closure of upwelling radiance in coastal waters
We present three methods for deriving water-leaving radiance L(w)(lambda) and remote-sensing reflectance using a hyperspectral tethered spectral radiometer buoy (HyperTSRB), profiled spectroradiometers, and Hydrolight simulations. Average agreement for 53 comparisons between HyperTSRB and spectroradiometric determinations of L(w)(lambda) was 26%, 13 ...

While many visual predators feed exclusively during the day, others exploit foraging opportunities at night, although the efficiency with which they do so is strongly influenced by ambient light levels. We investigated the influence of variation in nocturnal light on the foraging behaviour of a small pelagic seabird, the European Storm‐petrel ...
