• Experimental mining plumes and ocean warming trigger stress in a deep pelagic jellyfish 

      Stenvers, Vanessa; Hauss, Helena; Bayer, Till; Havermans, Charlotte; Hentschel, Ute; Schmittmann, Lara; Sweetman, Andrew K.; Hoving, Henk-Jan T. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      The deep pelagic ocean is increasingly subjected to human-induced environmental change. While pelagic animals provide important ecosystem functions including climate regulation, species-specific responses to stressors ...
    • A functional vulnerability framework for biodiversity conservation 

      Auber, Arnaud; Waldock, Conor; Maire, Anthony; Goberville, Eric; Albouy, Camille; Algar, Adam C.; McLean, Matthew; Brind'Amour, Anik; Green, Alison L.; Tupper, Mark; Vigliola, Laurent; Kaschner, Kristin; Kesner-Reyes, Kathleen; Beger, Maria; Tjiputra, Jerry; Toussaint, Aurèle; Violle, Cyrille; Mouquet, Nicolas; Thuiller, Wilfried; Mouillot, David (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Setting appropriate conservation strategies in a multi-threat world is a challenging goal, especially because of natural complexity and budget limitations that prevent effective management of all ecosystems. Safeguarding ...
    • The influence of recent and future climate change on spring Arctic cyclones 

      Parker, Chelsea L.; Mooney, Priscilla A.; Webster, Melinda A.; Boisvert, Linette N. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      In recent decades, the Arctic has experienced rapid atmospheric warming and sea ice loss, with an ice-free Arctic projected by the end of this century. Cyclones are synoptic weather events that transport heat and moisture ...
    • Past terrestrial hydroclimate sensitivity controlled by Earth system feedbacks 

      Feng, Ran; Bhattacharya, Tripti; Otto-Bliesner, Bette L.; Brady, Esther C.; Haywood, Alan M.; Tindall, Julia C.; Hunter, Stephen J.; Abe-Ouchi, Ayako; Chan, Wing-Le; Kageyama, Masa; Contoux, Camille; Guo, Chuncheng; Li, Xiangyu; Lohmann, Gerrit; Stepanek, Christian; Tan, Ning; Zhang, Qiong; Zhang, Zhongshi; Han, Zixuan; Williams, Charles J. R.; Lunt, Daniel J.; Dowsett, Harry J.; Chandan, Deepak; Peltier, W. Richard (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Despite tectonic conditions and atmospheric CO2 levels (pCO2) similar to those of present-day, geological reconstructions from the mid-Pliocene (3.3-3.0 Ma) document high lake levels in the Sahel and mesic conditions in ...
    • Possibility for strong northern hemisphere high-latitude cooling under negative emissions 

      Schwinger, Jörg; Asaadi, Ali; Goris, Nadine; Lee, Hanna (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      It is well established that a collapse or strong reduction of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) would substantially cool the northern high latitudes. Here we show that there is a possibility that such ...
    • Stratification constrains future heat and carbon uptake in the Southern Ocean between 30°S and 55°S 

      Bourgeois, Timothée; Goris, Nadine; Schwinger, Jörg; Tjiputra, Jerry (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      The Southern Ocean between 30°S and 55°S is a major sink of excess heat and anthropogenic carbon, but model projections of these sinks remain highly uncertain. Reducing such uncertainties is required to effectively guide ...
    • Viral infection switches the balance between bacterial and eukaryotic recyclers of organic matter during coccolithophore blooms 

      Vincent, Flora; Gralka, Matti; Schleyer, Guy; Schatz, Daniella; Cabrera-Brufau, Miguel; Kuhlisch, Constanze; Sichert, Andreas; Vidal-Melgosa, Silvia; Mayers, Kyle; Barak-Gavish, Noa; Flores, J. Michel; Masdeu-Navarro, Marta; Egge, Jorun Karin; Larsen, Aud; Hehemann, Jan-Hendrik; Marrasé, Celia; Simó, Rafel; Cordero, Otto X.; Vardi, Assaf (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Algal blooms are hotspots of marine primary production and play central roles in microbial ecology and global elemental cycling. Upon demise of the bloom, organic carbon is partly respired and partly transferred to either ...
