Long distance dispersal and oceanographic fronts shape the connectivity of the keystone sponge Phakellia ventilabrum in the deep northeast Atlantic
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Little is known about dispersal in deep-sea ecosystems, especially for sponges, which are abundant ecosystem engineers. Understanding patterns of gene flow in deep-sea sponges is essential, especially in areas where rising ... -
Assessing the occurrence of egg stranding for trout and salmon in a regulated river
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)A key challenge in many regulated rivers is to define adequate flow levels to protect aquatic organisms. Provisioning of suitable flow can be pivotal bottlenecks for fishes such as salmon and trout that use the riverbed ... -
On the climatic influence of CO2 forcing in the Pliocene
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Understanding the dominant climate forcings in the Pliocene is crucial to assessing the usefulness of the Pliocene as an analogue for our warmer future. Here, we implement a novel yet simple linear factorisation method to ... -
Future summer warming pattern under climate change is affected by lapse-rate changes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Greenhouse-gas-driven global temperature change projections exhibit spatial variations, meaning that certain land areas will experience substantially enhanced or reduced surface warming. It is vital to understand enhanced ... -
Are null segregants new combinations of heritable material and should they be regulated?
(Journal article, 2023)Through genome editing and other techniques of gene technology, it is possible to create a class of organism called null segregants. These genetically modified organisms (GMOs) are products of gene technology but are argued ... -
Using Mask R-CNN for Underwater Fish Instance Segmentation as Novel Objects: A Proof of Concept
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Instance Segmentation in general deals with detecting, segmenting and classifying individual instances of objects in an image. Underwater instance segmentation methods often involve aquatic animals like fish as the things ... -
The pseudo-global-warming (PGW) approach: Methodology, software package PGW4ERA5 v1.1, validation, and sensitivity analyses
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)The term “pseudo-global warming” (PGW) refers to a simulation strategy in regional climate modeling. The strategy consists of directly imposing large-scale changes in the climate system on a control regional climate ... -
Challenges for transgene detection in landraces and wild relatives: learning from 15 years of debate over GM maize in Mexico
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)Maize is one of the world’s five staple cereals and its traditional varieties constitute a global resource critical to future agricultural development. Fifteen years ago, claims that transgenes had spread into traditional ... -
Effects on early monsoon rainfall in West Africa due to recent deforestation in a convection-permitting ensemble
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Tropical deforestation can have a significant effect on climate, but research attention has been directed mostly towards Amazonian deforestation. The southern part of West Africa (a region dependent on rain-fed agriculture ... -
Biodiversity, biogeography, and connectivity of polychaetes in the world's largest marine minerals exploration frontier
(Journal article, 2023)Aim The abyssal Clarion-Clipperton Zone (CCZ), Pacific Ocean, is an area of commercial importance owing to the growing interest in mining high-grade polymetallic nodules at the seafloor for battery metals. Research into ... -
Taxonomy, phylogeny, and biodiversity of Lumbrineridae (Annelida, Polychaeta) from the Central Pacific Clarion-Clipperton Zone
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The DNA taxonomy of six species of the annelid family Lumbrineridae collected from the Clarion-Clipperton Zone (CCZ) in the Central Pacific, an area of potential mining interest for polymetallic nodules, is presented. ... -
Carbonate compensation depth drives abyssal biogeography in the northeast Pacific
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Abyssal seafloor communities cover more than 60% of Earth’s surface. Despite their great size, abyssal plains extend across modest environmental gradients compared to other marine ecosystems. However, little is known about ... -
How many metazoan species live in the world's largest mineral exploration region?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The global surge in demand for metals such as cobalt and nickel has created unprecedented interest in deep-sea habitats with mineral resources. The largest area of activity is a 6 million km2 region known as the ... -
Slowdown of Antarctic Bottom Water export driven by climatic wind and sea-ice changes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW) is pivotal for oceanic heat and carbon sequestrations on multidecadal to millennial timescales. The Weddell Sea contributes nearly a half of global AABW through Weddell Sea Deep Water and ... -
BVLOS UAV missions for vegetation mapping in maritime Antarctic
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Polar areas are among the regions where climate change occurs faster than on most of the other areas on Earth. To study the effects of climate change on vegetation, there is a need for knowledge on its current status and ... -
Gut transit of daily consecutive meals in greater amberjack juveniles reared at different temperatures
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Feed passage time throughout the digestive tract of three daily consecutive meals containing three different inert markers respectively and the gut luminal ionic conditions generated during a daily cycle have been examined ... -
Generation of the Internal Pycnocline in the Subpolar Southern Ocean by Wintertime Sea Ice Melting
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The ocean's internal pycnocline is a layer of elevated stratification that separates the well-ventilated upper ocean from the more slowly renewed deep ocean. Despite its pivotal role in organizing ocean circulation, the ... -
Microbial hydrogen consumption leads to a significant pH increase under high-saline-conditions: implications for hydrogen storage in salt caverns
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Salt caverns have been successfully used for natural gas storage globally since the 1940s and are now under consideration for hydrogen (H2) storage, which is needed in large quantities to decarbonize the economy to finally ... -
The representation of alkalinity and the carbonate pump from CMIP5 to CMIP6 Earth system models and implications for the carbon cycle
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Ocean alkalinity is critical to the uptake of atmospheric carbon in surface waters and provides buffering capacity towards the associated acidification. However, unlike dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), alkalinity is not ... -
