Land birds on atolls: diversity, origin, and function

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oceanic islands are global hotspots of avian biodiversity and endemism. Their isolation and distinct environmental conditions have uniquely shaped the evolutionary trajectories of island birds, while, in turn, land bird communities have become critical providers of ecological functions to island ecosystems.

El Niño and coral larval dispersal across the eastern Pacific marine barrier

open access: yesNature 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 ...

Influence of Wintertime Polar Vortex Variation on the Climate over the North Pacific during Late Winter and Spring

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2019
The effects of wintertime stratospheric polar vortex variation on the climate over the North Pacific Ocean during late winter and spring are analyzed using the National Centers for Environmental Predictions, version 2 (NCEP2) reanalysis dataset.

Digital Technology's Role in Circular Waste Management: A Systematic Review

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Combining circular economy ideas with digital tools offers a game‐changing way to tackle global sustainability problems. This paper focuses on how digital changes and circular economy models link up. A review has been conducted for 112 articles from 2021 to September 2025, using PRISMA‐2020 methodology. This study covered new tech like AI, IoT,

Pacific Equatorial Sea Surface Temperature Variation During the 2015 El Niño Period Observed by Advanced Very-High-Resolution Radiometer of NOAA Satellites [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2018
El Niño is the largest fluctuation in the climate system, and it can lead to effects influencing humans all over the world. An El Niño occurs when sea surface temperatures in the central and eastern tropical Pacific Ocean become substantially higher ...

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

open access: yes, 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.

Close kin proximity in yellowfin tuna (thunnus albacares) as a driver of population genetic structure in the tropical western and Central Pacific Ocean

open access: yes, 2020
Recent studies argue for the presence of genetic population structure in yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) in all oceans. However, the persistence of family groups has never been considered a viable mechanism of structure, nor has it been measured.

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

open access: yesEcography, 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

Expedition 320/321 summary

open access: yes, 2010
Integrated Ocean Drilling Program Expedition 320/321, "Pacific Equatorial Age Transect" (Sites U1331–U1338), was designed to recover a continuous Cenozoic record of the equatorial Pacific by coring above the paleoposition of the Equator at successive ...
