The Teleconnection of the Tropical Atlantic to Indo-Pacific Sea Surface Temperatures on Inter-Annual to Centennial Time Scales: A Review of Recent Findings [PDF]
Atmosphere, 2016 In this paper, the teleconnections from the tropical Atlantic to the Indo-Pacific region from inter-annual to centennial time scales will be reviewed. Identified teleconnections and hypotheses on mechanisms at work are reviewed and further explored in a ...

El Niño and coral larval dispersal across the eastern Pacific marine barrier [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2016 Over 5,000 km of open ocean separate central and eastern Pacific coral reefs. Here, the authors combine a biophysical dispersal model with genetic data to show that eastern Pacific coral populations have been isolated from western sources of larval ...

Distribution of nano-sized Cyanobacteria in the western and central Pacific Ocean [PDF]
Aquatic Microbial Ecology, 2010 We investigated the distribution of nano-sized unicellular Cyanobacteria (nanocyanobacteria) in the Pacific Ocean. Nanocyanobacteria were distributed in the mixed layer throughout the western and central regions of the North and South Pacific subtropical gyres, where nitrate depletion and high irradiance are maintained throughout the year.

Two Hidden mtDNA-Clades of Crown-of-Thorns Starfish in the Pacific Ocean
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 Recurring outbreaks of crown-of-thorns starfish (COTS) severely damage healthy corals, especially in the Western Pacific Ocean. To obtain a better understanding of population genetics of COTS and historical colonization across the Pacific Ocean, complete

Drivers and characteristics of the Indo-western Pacific Ocean capacitor
Frontiers in Climate, 2022 Coherently coupled ocean-atmosphere variability of the tropical Indo-Pacific Oceans gives rise to the predictability of Asian summer climate. Recent advances in Indo-western Pacific Ocean capacitor (IPOC) theory and the relationship with El Niño-Southern

Sedimentary CaCO3 Accumulation in the Deep West Pacific Ocean
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022 Distribution of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) in marine sediment has been studied over the last century, and influence by multiple factors with regard to dissolution and dilution of sedimentary CaCO3 has long been established.

Addressing Issues and Challenges in Managing Migratory Tuna Resources in the Western and Central Pacific Ocean [PDF]
International Journal of the Commons, 2021 Tuna resources in the Western and Central Pacific Ocean are the world’s largest and most valuable fisheries of their type and are vital to the economy and the sustainable development of the region. However, the region witnesses a rapid decline in tuna resources and the depletion of species such as bigeye and yellowfin tunas, and overharvesting of the ...
