The influence of nitrate availability and irradiance on phytoplankton natural fluorescence was investigated in laboratory cultures of the marine diatom Thalassiosira weissflogii (Bacillariophyceae). Two cultures of phyto ...

Concern regarding increased coastal erosion has heightened amid growing acceptance of global warming and associated sea-level rise. This study examines shoreline erosion in Flathead Lake, Montana due to five decades of ...

Anomaly timescales for the last 90 million years, derived from marine magnetic profiles and published prior to mid-1979, are summarized, illustrated for comparison, and critically reviewed. A revised timescale is cons ...

Planktonic foraminiferal faunal assemblages were used to estimate sea-surface temperatures (SST) in the southeast Pacific Ocean during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) and off the coast of Peru over the last 150,000 years. ...

Modern upwelling conditions and corresponding oceanographic properties are investigated and reconstructed for the Late Quaternary. The oceanographic conditions considered influence diatom ecology and the record of fossil ...

Gray whales accomplish an annual migration which spans as much as 50° of latitude in the northeast Pacific Ocean. This migration links their summer high latitude feeding grounds with winter calving and breeding areas ...
