The future response of marine ecosystem diversity to continued anthropogenic forcing is
poorly constrained. Phytoplankton are a diverse set of organisms that form the base of the …

Human activities are fundamentally altering biodiversity. Projections of declines at the global
scale are contrasted by highly variable trends at local scales, suggesting that biodiversity …

Climate change pressures will influence marine planktonic systems globally, and it is
conceivable that harmful algal blooms may increase in frequency and severity. These …

The extent to which biodiversity change in local assemblages contributes to global
biodiversity loss is poorly understood. We analyzed 100 time series from biomes across …

Scientists disagree about the nature of biodiversity change. While there is evidence for
widespread declines from population surveys, assemblage surveys reveal a mix of declines …

Abstract Microplastics (1 μm–5 mm) are a ubiquitous marine contaminant of global concern,
ingested by a wide range of marine taxa. Copepods are a key component of marine food …

Abstract Motivation The BioTIME database contains raw data on species identities and
abundances in ecological assemblages through time. These data enable users to calculate …

Impacts of global climate change on terrestrial ecosystems are imperfectly constrained by
ecosystem models and direct observations. Pervasive ecosystem transformations occurred …

To understand and predict the physical, chemical, and biological processes at play in
coastal and nearshore marine areas requires an integrated, interdisciplinary approach. The …

Total annual net primary productions in marine and terrestrial ecosystems are similar.
However, a large portion of the newly produced marine phytoplankton biomass is converted …
