Projecting shifts in thermal habitat for 686 species on the North American continental shelf
PLoS ONE, 2018 Recent shifts in the geographic distribution of marine species have been linked to shifts in preferred thermal habitats. These shifts in distribution have already posed challenges for living marine resource management, and there is a strong need for ...

The Osmium Isotope Signature of Phanerozoic Large Igneous Provinces
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 229-246., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Past continental shelf evolution increased Antarctic ice sheet sensitivity to climatic conditions
Scientific Reports, 2018 Over the past 34 Million years, the Antarctic continental shelf has gradually deepened due to ice sheet loading, thermal subsidence, and erosion from repeated glaciations.

Residence Time and Transformation of Warm Circumpolar Deep Water on the Antarctic Continental Shelf
Geophysical Research Letters, 2021 Inflow of warm modified Circumpolar Deep Water (CDW) onto the Antarctic continental shelf and into ice shelf cavities is a key driver of Antarctic ice shelf mass loss.

Widespread dispersal and aging of organic carbon in shallow marginal seas [PDF]
, 2016 The occurrence of pre-aged organic carbon (OC) in continental margin surface sediments is a commonly observed phenomenon, yet the nature, sources, and causes of this aged OC remain largely undetermined for many continental shelf settings. Here we present
