Mytilus californianus transplanted as upwelling bioindicators to two areas off Baja California, Mexico

open access: yesCiencias Marinas, 2003
 To study the spatial and temporal variability of bioavailable Cd, mussels (Mytilus californianus) were transplanted from a control zone to two upwelling areas off the northwestern coast of Baja California, Mexico.

Critical constraints to ecological buffering in a rapidly changing Arctic: A long‐term seabird study

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Drawing on two decades of research in East Greenland, this study shows that little auks, key seabird indicators of Arctic ecosystem health, can adapt to rapid environmental change through behavioural flexibility. However, increasing storms and mercury pollution are pushing resilience to its limits, providing an early warning of broader Arctic ...

Three More Poecilogonous Sacoglossans: Why Is Egg‐Size Dimorphism Generally Rare Except in One Lineage of Sea Slugs?

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We report three additional species of sea slugs that express poecilogony, or egg‐size dimorphism, a form of life‐history plasticity that occurs about 200 times more often in clade Sacoglossa than in other marine gastropod groups. We present evidence that poecilogony permits local adaptation to ocean productivity and circulation, given the alternative ...

Microplate Tectonics Through Earth History and Across Solid Multispheres

open access: yesGeological Society of China Bulletin, EarlyView.
The evolution of tectonic microplates throughout Earth´s history as well as the transitions between microplates across different solid spheres offers a novel approach to expanding the traditional plate tectonics theory. ABSTRACT The evolution of tectonic microplates throughout Earth's history as well as the transitions between microplates across ...

An analysis of pump-induced artificial ionospheric ion upwelling at EISCAT [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Ion outflow from the high-latitude ionosphere is a well-known phenomenon and an important source of plasma for the magnetosphere. It is also well known that pumping the ionosphere with high-power high-frequency radio waves causes electron heating.

Assessing the effect of coastal upwelling on the air temperature at the south-eastern coast of the Baltic Sea

open access: yesOceanologia
Coastal upwelling along the SE Baltic Sea coast is a common feature, especially during the warm season. It significantly lowers sea surface temperature (SST) in the coastal areas, and, therefore, may be responsible for modifying meteorological conditions

Shelfbreak upwelling induced by alongshore currents: Analytical and numerical results [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Alongshore flow in the direction of propagation of coastal trapped waves can result in upwelling at the shelfbreak. The intensity of this upwelling can be comparable in magnitude to wind-driven coastal upwelling, with its associated ecological features ...

Topology‐based Visual Analysis of Hydrothermal Plumes

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Hydrothermal plumes are turbulent structures of intense heat and mineral smoke that rise and disperse into the deep ocean. Existing models generally characterize these systems as a single axisymmetric plume originating from a point source. However, this assumption breaks down in weakly venting, spatially distributed systems, where low‐flux ...
