Surface Chlorophyll‐a Trends in the Mediterranean Sea: Seasonal Bloom Dynamics and Drivers
Abstract Chlorophyll‐a (Chl‐a) is the most widely used proxy for phytoplankton biomass, bloom intensity, and trophic status in marine ecosystems. We analyzed 27 years (1998–2024) of 1 km‐resolution satellite‐derived Chl‐a data across the Mediterranean Sea and evaluated long‐term trends, bloom phenology, and seasonal variability in relation to sea ...

Bloom of Gymnodinium catenatum in Bahía Santiago and Bahía Manzanillo, Colima, Mexico
Gymnodinium bloom events are of concern, since they produce toxins, which have unfavorable consequences to marine ecosystems, human health and the economy.

Spring phytoplankton blooms drive primary production and food web dynamics in marine ecosystems. Ocean alkalinity enhancement, a proposed carbon dioxide removal strategy, alters seawater chemistry and could disrupt planktonic food webs, yet its ...

Seasonal and Spatial Variability of Silicon Cycle in Godavari Tidal River Zone
Abstract Dam regulation of tropical monsoonal rivers enhances seasonal contrasts in the tidal river zone (TRZ) hydrology, altering the delivery of dissolved silicon (DSi) to the coastal ocean. Here, we identify the drivers of Si cycling in the Godavari TRZ and quantify their implications for Si delivery to the Bay of Bengal (BoB). We analyzed elemental

Seasonal to Decadal Patterns in Sea Ice and Turbidity at Arctic River Mouths
Abstract Rapid warming of the Arctic is accelerating riverine delivery of freshwater, heat, and sediment to the Arctic Ocean. River mouth zones are especially vulnerable to this change, as these dynamic land–ocean interfaces are hotspots of primary productivity.

Integrating phytoplankton phenology, traits, and model-data fusion to advance bloom prediction
While there is a diversity of approaches for modeling phytoplankton blooms, their accuracy in predicting the onset and manifestation of a bloom is still lagging behind what is needed to support effective management. We outline a framework that integrates

Evaluation of Timing and Amplitude Biases in the Controls of Simulated Southern Ocean pCO2
Abstract The Southern Ocean is a major sink for atmospheric carbon dioxide and critical to the current and future carbon cycle. This net annual CO2 ${\text{CO}}_{2}$ flux reflects the balance of strong seasonal variability characterized by opposing periods of winter outgassing and summer uptake. Using a simple framework, we evaluate how model biases in

Abstract Drought is one of the most severe and complex natural hazards causing changes in water balance and impeding crucial water‐dependent ecosystem services. Over the last 25 years, multiple severe droughts linked to El Niño events have affected the Zambian and Zimbabwean regions.
