Dissolved and Particulate Methylated Mercury in a Highly Productive Area of the Southern Ocean
Abstract Methylated mercury (MeHg), including dimethylmercury and monomethylmercury (MMHg), is a pollutant of concern because it biomagnifies in marine biota. The formation of MeHg in the oceans, specifically at highly productive regions and at high oxygen levels, remains elusive.

ABSTRACT The Middle Atlantic Bight (MAB) of the eastern US differs from other offshore wind (OSW) development sites due to a unique seasonal oceanographic stratification regime. Fisheries there target migratory finfish and sedentary shellfish, the productivity and distribution of which are driven by oceanography with dynamic mesoscale features that can

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

Do Marine Mammals Diversify More Slowly Than Non‐Marine Mammals?
ABSTRACT Aim Species richness is generally lower in marine than in terrestrial ecosystems, but the reasons behind this disparity remain unclear. This study examines whether marine mammals diversify at a slower pace than their non‐marine counterparts, aiming to shed light on the factors explaining potential diversification differences among them ...

Krill: An exploration in underwater sensor networks [PDF]
While sensor networks have now become very popular on land, the underwater environment still poses some difficult problems. Communication is one of the difficult challenges under water. There are two options: optical and acoustic.

Calcium Isotopes Correlate With Baleen Whale Feeding Ecology
ABSTRACT Baleen whales are among the largest animals ever and engineer marine ecosystems by transporting nutrients both vertically through the water column and across vast oceanic distances. Hidden underwater, their feeding habits often remain unseen and hence must be studied indirectly based on stomach contents and stable isotopes.
