Chemical signatures of aged Pacific marine air: Mixed layer and free troposphere as measured during PEM-West A [PDF]

, 1996
The Pacific Ocean is one of the few remaining regions of the northern hemisphere that is relatively free of direct anthropogenic emissions. However, long-range transport of air pollutants is beginning to have a significant impact on the atmosphere over ...

How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...

Counting cases, conserving species: addressing highly pathogenic avian influenza in wildlife

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) has become a critical threat to wildlife, shifting from a seasonal epizootic to a persistent, year‐round panzootic with global consequences. Here, we summarise the origin, evolutionary mechanisms, and expanding host range of the current H5N1 virus (clade 2.3.4.4b) and assess its impact on wildlife. Over

Meridional Asymmetry in Recent Decadal Sea‐Level Trends in the Subtropical Pacific Ocean

Geophysical Research Letters, 2021
Recent sea surface height (SSH) trends in the South Pacific are substantially greater than trends in the North Pacific. Here, we use the Estimating the Climate and Circulation of the Ocean Version 4 Release 4 ocean state estimate and the Ocean Reanalysis

Protecting the Pacific Important Pieces of the Regional Conservation Puzzle [PDF]

, 2014
The Pacific, Earth's largest ocean, is a complex ecosystem that supports life both at sea and on shore. Protecting this biodiversity is vital, which is why The Pew Charitable Trusts takes a comprehensive approach to ocean conservation in the Pacific ...

Waders in a sea of debris: a global overview

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The impact of plastic pollution on ecosystems and marine fauna is well documented, although research into its effects on waders (also known as shorebirds) remains limited. Given that waders are exposed to coastal marine litter, this exposure could be a significant factor in the decline of their populations. This study aims to assess the global

Literature of the Pacific, Mainly Australian

eTropic: electronic journal of studies in the tropics, 2016
This lecture is in some ways the ‘lost’ chapter of The Cambridge History of Australian Literature (2009), one eventually not written because the projected author could find not enough literary material even in that vast Pacific Ocean, or perhaps found ...

Vertical Moist Thermodynamic Structure and Spatial–Temporal Evolution of the MJO in AIRS Observations [PDF]

, 2006
The atmospheric moisture and temperature profiles from the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS)/Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit on the NASA Aqua mission, in combination with the precipitation from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM), are ...

Mapping the Intellectual and Industrial Evolution of Corporate Social Responsibility: A Cross‐Sector Scientometric Analysis Using Main Path and Cluster Methods

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Corporate social responsibility (CSR) has undergone continuous expansion across industries, yet its intellectual evolution and cross‐sectoral linkages remain insufficiently understood. This study provides a comprehensive, data‐driven assessment of CSR's developmental trajectories by analyzing 3314 Web of Science articles using key‐route main ...

Silicon stable isotope distribution traces Southern Ocean export of Si to the eastern South Pacific thermocline [PDF]

Biogeosciences, 2012
The cycling and transport of dissolved silicon (Si) in the ocean may be traced by its stable isotope composition, δ³⁰Si. We present a dataset of δ³⁰Si values along 103° W in the eastern
