A shining starlet: Nematostella vectensis as a model for developmental, regenerative, and comparative biology

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract The sea anemone, Nematostella vectensis, has been used as a model organism in developmental biology studies for many years. This estuarine species has the notable capacity to regenerate its full body plan from small pieces throughout life. Nematostella have been described as having a great degree of cellular plasticity.

The Use of the GWPCA-MGWR Model for Studying Spatial Relationships between Environmental Variables and Longline Catches of Yellowfin Tunas

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
The yellowfin tuna represents a significant fishery resource in the Pacific Ocean. Its resource endowment status and spatial variation mechanisms are intricately influenced by marine environments, particularly under varying climate events.

Reduced size of larvae and small fish linked to warming and reduced prey density

Ecography, EarlyView.
Body size is an integrative trait that has declined across many ecological assemblages in the last decades. Changes in body size of early life stages and small‐bodied fish are driven by complex interactions between size‐dependent mortality, and temperature‐ and food‐dependent growth, and can have consequences for recruitment to the adult stock and food

Making waves: Australian ocean development assistance [PDF]

, 2012
This paper argues for ocean development  to be a key strategic goal of Australia\u27s increased aid investments. In particular, it recommends that AusAID fund key features of the follow-on to Australia\u27s successful Defence funded Pacific Patrol

Hydrothermal sediments record changes in deep water oxygen content in the SE Pacific

, 2010
The distribution of redox?sensitive metals in sediments is potentially a proxy for past ocean ventilation and productivity, but deconvolving these two major controls has proved difficult to date.

Spatially heterogenous range dynamics since the Last Glacial Maximum underpin the modern bimodal latitudinal diversity gradient in planktonic foraminifera

Ecography, EarlyView.
The modern latitudinal diversity gradient (LDG) of planktonic foraminifera is bimodal, with a distinct depression near the equator surrounded by mid‐latitude diversity peaks. This pattern emerged after the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM; 19–23 ka), but it remains unclear how species' spatial dynamics contributed to its formation.

Trace element distributions in ridge flank sediments from the east Pacific Rise, and their use as proxies of past ocean conditions

, 2008
The eastern equatorial and tropical Pacific regions are areas of significant carbon fluxes from theatmosphere to the ocean interior. Changes in the function of marine biogeochemical cycles in thisregion potentially exert an important control on global ...

Annual amphidromes: a common feature in the ocean? [PDF]

, 2005
The scientific term "amphidrome" is usually associated with tides in oceanography. The dozen tidal amphidromes observed in the ocean are critical points that determine the fundamental pattern of the global tidal system.
