The importance of considering historical data in developing conservation and restoration measures for individual species and for wider ecological restoration has been pointed out by recent reviews but often remains neglected in practice. This paper provides a case study illustrating the issue through a review of the former breeding distribution of the ...

The Greenland–Scotland Ridge in a Changing Ocean: Time to Act?
ABSTRACT The Greenland–Scotland Ridge is a submarine mountain that rises up to 500 m below the sea surface and extends from the east coast of Greenland to the continental shelf of Iceland and across the Faroe Islands to Scotland. The ridge not only separates deeper ocean basins on either side, that is, the North Atlantic and Arctic oceans, but also ...

Abstract Phytoplankton spring blooms in the Labrador Sea are dominated by diatoms, with Phaeocystis spp. (hereafter Phaeocystis) contributing more than 25% to total phytoplankton biomass. However, in 2015 and 2022, large blooms of Phaeocystis were observed, contributing up to 90% of the surface phytoplankton biomass. In this study, we quantified shifts

The promise of digital herbarium specimens in large‐scale phenology research
Summary The online mobilization of herbaria has made tens of millions of specimens digitally available, revolutionizing investigations of phenology and plant responses to climate change. We identify two main themes associated with this growing body of research and highlight a selection of recent publications exemplifying: investigating phenology at ...

ABSTRACT Rebuilding fish stocks to levels above which they produce Maximum Sustainable Yield (MSY) is a management aim for all European commercially exploited stocks. Progress is typically monitored against the fishing mortality that produces MSY in the long term (FMSY), however, the corresponding biomass target (BMSY) is rarely evaluated nor reported.

Capelin Size, Condition, and Abundance Through Multiple Heatwaves in Alaska
ABSTRACT Capelin (Mallotus spp.) are pelagic forage fishes that can be especially abundant in sub‐arctic marine ecosystems and are important prey for upper trophic‐level consumers. Abundance and distribution of capelin have been linked to ocean temperature, but the magnitude and directionality of thermal sensitivity can vary regionally.

Satellite‐Based Detection of Methane Emissions From Permafrost Peatland Warming
Abstract Column‐averaged methane (XCH4) observations spanning 2018–2023 by the Tropospheric Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI) on the Sentinel‐5 Precursor satellite are assessed for evidence of methane (CH4) emissions from permafrost regions. Bi‐monthly TROPOMI XCH4 anomaly maps and soil temperature (Tsoil) anomaly maps from reanalysis data are generated ...

Abstract Reservoirs are globally important sources of greenhouse gases, but the magnitude of their emissions is highly uncertain. Here, we present data for 146 reservoirs from two surveys of reservoir methane and carbon dioxide emissions, one at the regional scale in the midwestern United States and one at the national scale in the United States, plus ...

Climate‐linked evolution and genetics in a warming Arctic
Abstract Knowledge of evolutionary patterns and genetic variation across a species' range is important for determining conservation and management strategies. The Arctic is the fastest‐warming ecosystem on Earth and has already reached temperature increases not expected in the rest of the world until the end of the century.
