Timing is everything: Drivers of interannual variability in blue whale migration. [PDF]
Blue whales need to time their migration from their breeding grounds to their feeding grounds to avoid missing peak prey abundances, but the cues they use for this are unknown.

Abstract Schools are a common place where the younger generation can develop their understanding of the ocean and acquire the skills needed to become responsible and knowledgeable ocean advocates. Grounded in a relational ocean literacy model, this study examined outcomes of a place‐based programme integrating picture books, beach excursions and ...

Protecting Life in the Sea [PDF]
Unrestrained impact of human activity is imposing fundamental, perhaps irreversible, changes on the world's oceans. This brochure examines the Pew Environment Group's work over the last 15 years and looking ahead to 2012, to increase public awareness and

Abstract In the Western Antarctic Peninsula (WAP), marine plankton dynamics are tightly linked to the interannual variability in environmental conditions, including phenological shifts in sea‐ice seasonality. To explore these linkages, we use a 1‐dimensional vertical ocean‐ice‐ecosystem model (KPP‐Eco‐Ice, or KEI) that simulates physical and ecosystem ...

ABSTRACT Understanding the diving behavior of baleen whales in tropical breeding areas is essential for evaluating both ecological functions and anthropogenic threats. In this study, we combined satellite transmitters and generalized additive mixed models (GAMMs) to investigate the dive behavior of sei whales (Balaenoptera borealis) in Santos Basin (SB)

Temporal shift in the isotopic niche of female Antarctic fur seals from Bouvetøya
The Antarctic fur seal (Arctocephalus gazella) is a key marine predator in the Southern Ocean, a region that has recently started to show changes as a result of global climate change.

Protozoans as a food source for Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba: complementary insights from stomach content, fatty acids, and stable isotopes [PDF]
We studied the diet of Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba, at five stations across the southwest Atlantic sector in summer 2003 by analyzing stomach content, fatty acids, and stable isotopes on the same individuals.
