Control of a phytoplankton bloom by wind‐driven vertical mixing and light availability
Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 66, Issue 5, Page 1926-1949, May 2021., 2021 Abstract The balance of physical and biological processes governing phytoplankton growth rates and the accumulation of biomass is widely debated in the literature, notably during the winter–spring transition. Here we show, in a temperate shelf sea that variability in the depth of the actively mixing surface layer is the leading order control.

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 47, Issue 23, 16 December 2020., 2020 Abstract Wildfire smoke influences on air quality and atmospheric chemistry have been underscored by the increasing fire prevalence in recent years, and yet, the connection between fire, smoke emissions, and the subsequent transformation of this smoke in the atmosphere remains poorly constrained. Toward improving these linkages, we present a new method

Meteorological Tsunamis: From Local Hazard to Global Relevance
Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 63, Issue 4, December 2025.Abstract Research on meteorological tsunamis or meteotsunamis—long ocean waves in the tsunami frequency band generated by propagating atmospheric disturbances which resonantly enhance ocean waves—has grown significantly in recent decades. This expansion is due to progress in (a) ocean and atmospheric measurements, including advanced instrumentation ...

Using the diel cycle of ocean microbes to better understand their biogeochemical functions
Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 10, Issue 4, Page 434-447, August 2025.Abstract The daily cycle of solar radiation has a profound influence in structuring the physiology of microbes in the euphotic zone and subsequently setting the degree of coupling across trophic levels within ocean ecosystems. There has been an upsurge of interest in the biological role of the diel cycle and the ability to probe it using molecular ...

Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2017, Issue 1, 2017., 2017 Moxibustion is an integral part of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). It achieved higher level of recognition and had more general application in ancient times than in contemporary life. As the vital historical sources, the records of unearthed literatures offered precious insights to Chinese social life pattern and medical practice in Qin and Han ...

Journal of Avian Biology, Volume 2025, Issue 4, July 2025.The ecological pressures that maintain the behavioral preferences of avian migrants, such as the timing and duration of nocturnal flights, remain elusive yet are critical to understand the evolution of the migratory program. In this study, we use an atypical light condition – extremely short to non‐existent nights at high latitudes – to study responses

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 51, Issue 8, 28 April 2024.Abstract Boundary dynamics are crucial for the transport of energy, mass, and momentum in geospace. The recently discovered plasmapause surface wave (PSW) plays a key role in the inner magnetosphere dynamics. However, a comprehensive investigation of spatial variations of the PSW remains absent.

Larval Diel Vertical Migration of the Marine Gastropod Kelletia kelletii (Forbes, 1850)
Journal of Marine Sciences, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012 Documenting larval behavior is critical for building an understanding of larval dispersal dynamics and resultant population connectivity. Nocturnal diel vertical migration (DVM), a daily migration towards the surface of the water column at night and downward during the day, can profoundly influence dispersal outcomes.

Evidence of Reflected Internal Solitary Waves in the Strait of Gibraltar
Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 129, Issue 2, February 2024.Abstract Large‐amplitude internal solitary waves (ISWs) propagating eastward toward the Alboran Sea have long been known in the Strait of Gibraltar. New in‐situ data and satellite images evidence northwestward propagating ISWs. These waves are probably the reflection of the well‐known eastward propagating wave along the Moroccan shelf.
