Euphausia pacifica occupy a remarkably wide range of ecosystems. We examined the
differences in brood sizes from eight regions of the North Pacific to explore how variation
in the brood size might contribute to their success over such a range. We...

This study addresses the occurrence, severity, and extent of hypoxia over the continental shelf of the northern
California Current (40–48.5°N latitude) from 1998 to 2012. Clear seasonal trends exist in the timing and duration
of hypoxia. The...

Larval supply determines year-class strength of fisheries and complex ecological
interactions among adults of benthic marine species. In upwelling regions, a latitudinal cline in
the intensity and persistence of upwelling is thought to affect...

Many endemic species, particularly those on
remote islands, have been driven to extinction or near extinction
by anthropogenic influences. The short-tailed albatross
Phoebastria albatrus once numbered in the millions
but was thought to be extinct...

Research on regulatory mechanisms in biological populations often focuses on environmental covariates. An integrated
approach that combines environmental indices with organismal-level information can provide additional insight on
regulatory...

The eruption of South Sarigan Seamount in the southern Mariana arc
in May 2010 is a reminder of how little we know about the hazards associated with
submarine explosive eruptions or how to predict these types of eruptions. Monitored
