New geographic boundaries of marine fishes - are we aware?

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2015
The boundaries for geographic distributions of species are being redesigned continuously, as referred by several authors. In recent years, tropical and sub-tropical fish species have been registered for the first time in the coast of Portugal.

The Potential of Multibeam Sonars as 3D Turbidity and SPM Monitoring Tool in the North Sea

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
Monitoring turbidity is essential for sustainable coastal management because an increase in turbidity leading to diminishing water clarity has a detrimental ecological impact.

The Deposition and Accumulation of Microplastics in Marine Sediments and Bottom Water from the Irish Continental Shelf

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Microplastics are widely dispersed throughout the marine environment. An understanding of the distribution and accumulation of this form of pollution is crucial for gauging environmental risk.

Explicit representation and parametrised impacts of under ice shelf seas in the z∗ coordinate ocean model NEMO 3.6 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Ice-shelf-ocean interactions are a major source of freshwater on the Antarctic continental shelf and have a strong impact on ocean properties, ocean circulation and sea ice.

Decadal variation in the frequency of tropical cyclones originating in the South China Sea and migrating from the western North Pacific

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
A decadal variation in the frequency of tropical cyclones (TCs) that reached their lifetime maximum intensity (LMI) in the South China Sea (SCS; 5°N-25°N, 107°E-121°E) from 1978 to 2020 was identified.

Clinoforms and clinoform systems: Review and dynamic classification scheme for shorelines, subaqueous deltas, shelf edges and continental margins

open access: yesEarth-Science Reviews, 2018
Clinoforms are inclined and normally basinward-dipping horizons developed over a range of spatial and temporal scales in both siliciclastic and carbonatic systems.

Widespread dispersal and aging of organic carbon in shallow marginal seas [PDF]

open access: yes, 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

The Osmium Isotope Signature of Phanerozoic Large Igneous Provinces

open access: yesGeophysical 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.

Residence Time and Transformation of Warm Circumpolar Deep Water on the Antarctic Continental Shelf

open access: yesGeophysical 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.

Seasonal trends and phenology shifts in sea surface temperature on the North American northeastern continental shelf

open access: yes, 2017
The northeastern North American continental shelf from Cape Hatteras to the Scotian Shelf is a region of globally extreme positive trends in sea surface temperature (SST).
