Tropical fisheries substantially contribute to the well-being of societies in both the tropics
and the extratropics, the latter through 'telecoupling'—linkages between distant human …

Diatoms sustain the marine food web and contribute to the export of carbon from the surface
ocean to depth. They account for about 40% of marine primary productivity and particulate …

Ocean and coastal ecosystems support life on Earth and many aspects of human well-being.
Covering two-thirds of the planet, the ocean hosts vast biodiversity and modulates the global …

It is unequivocal that the increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4)
and nitrous oxide (N2O) since the pre-industrial period are caused by human activities. The …

Anthropogenic climate change is projected to lead to ocean warming, acidification,
deoxygenation, reductions in near-surface nutrients, and changes to primary production, all …

The ocean is a key component of the Earth system (Chapter 1) as it provides essential life
supporting services (Inniss et al. 2017). For example, it stores heat trapped in the …

Nutrient availability limits phytoplankton growth throughout much of the global ocean. Here
we synthesize available experimental data to identify three dominant nutrient limitation …

Projections of climate change impacts on marine ecosystems have revealed long-term
declines in global marine animal biomass and unevenly distributed impacts on fisheries …

Our current 1.1° C warmer world is already affecting natural and human systems in Europe
(very high confidence1). Since AR5, there has been a substantial increase in detected or …

Marine phytoplankton and zooplankton form the basis of the ocean's food-web, yet the
impacts of climate change on their biodiversity are poorly understood. Here, we use an …
