Valuing local water quality in Ontario using revealed preference data
Abstract Improving water quality is an important goal for policymakers, yet understanding the economic benefits people receive from changes in water quality is challenging because many of the benefits are non‐market in nature. We use spatially explicit lake Secchi disk depth measures and information on over 320,000 property sales to provide the most ...

ABSTRACT The seabob shrimp (Xiphopenaeus spp.) is a primary fishery resource in Brazil, with considerable economic and social importance along the coast. While environmental drivers of its life cycle are well‐documented for southeastern and southern populations, the factors modulating populations in the Eastern Brazilian Shelf remain poorly understood,

Morphology captures function in phytoplankton : a large-scale analysis of phytoplankton communities in relation to their environment [PDF]
Predicting phytoplankton community dynamics in detail seems an overwhelming task as there are so many species, and a myriad of combinations of potential conditioning factors.

Contrasting Food Web Dynamics Across Oceanographic Boundaries in Subarctic Pelagic Ecosystems
ABSTRACT Understanding the structure of pelagic food webs across multiple trophic levels is critical for elucidating species interactions, energy flow, and anthropogenic impacts on production. This study presents a comprehensive analysis of the eastern North Pacific pelagic food webs, focusing on the Gulf of Alaska (GoA) during late winter of 2019.

Stable Isotope Analyses of Yellowfin and Blackfin Tuna Eye Lenses Reveal Life History Patterns
ABSTRACT Spatial geography, ontogenetic movement, and trophic patterns of mobile species are key elements of species life history, and knowledge of them is critical for effective marine resource management. For yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares; YFT) and blackfin tuna (Thunnus atlanticus; BLFT), residency durations and ontogenetic movements in the Gulf

Seasonal patterns and interannual variability of phytoplankton in Lake Stechlin [PDF]
The paper presents results of detailed phytoplankton investigations in Lake Stechlin between 1994 and 2003. The analysis includes the picoplankton fraction (dominated by Cyanobium sp.) that regularly appears as a deep-layer chlorophyll maximum (DCM ...

Distributions of particulate Heme b in the Atlantic and Southern Oceans - implications for electron transport in phytoplankton [PDF]
Concentrations of heme b, the iron-containing component of b-type hemoproteins, ranged from 500). High chl a:heme b ratios resulted from relative decreases in heme b, suggesting proteins such as cytochrome b6f, the core complex of photosystem II, and ...
