Ecosystem productivity in coastal ocean upwelling systems is threatened by climate change.
Increases in spring and summer upwelling intensity, and associated increases in the rate of …

Ocean ecosystems have responded and will continue to respond to climate changes of
different rates, magnitudes, and durations (virtually certain). Human societies depend on …

Original habitat of animal species is being destroyed at an accelerating rate. This is usually
associated with an alteration of the remaining habitat, which becomes degraded and/or …

Aim Changes in abundance and shifts in distribution as a result of a warming climate have
been documented for many marine species, but opportunities to test our ability to forecast …

Marine spatial planning and ecological research call for high-resolution species distribution
data. However, those data are still not available for most marine large vertebrates. The …

Climate change is redistributing biodiversity globally and distributional shifts have been
found to follow local climate velocities. It is largely assumed that marine endotherms such as …

To detect potential impacts of climate change on the distribution of common echinoderm
species in the Yellow Sea (YS) and East China Sea (ECS), species distribution models …

Spinner dolphins (Stenella longirostris subsp.) occupy the nearshore waters of several
Hawaiian Islands. Due to their constrained behavioral pattern and genetic isolation, they are …

There is increasing evidence that the distributions of a large number of species are shifting
with global climate change as they track changing surface temperatures that define their …

Ecosystem function and resilience is determined by the interactions and independent
contributions of individual species. Apex predators play a disproportionately determinant …
