Abstract:

The West Antarctic Peninsula (WAP) is home to large breeding colonies of the ice-dependent Antarctic Adélie penguin (Pygoscelis adeliae). Although the entire inner continental shelf is highly productive, with abundant phytoplankton and krill populations, penguin colonies are distributed heterogeneously along the WAP (Ducklow et al., 2013, in this issue). This ecological...

Creator:

Rothstein, Lewis, Cullen, John, Abbott, Mark R., Chassignet, Eric, Denman, Ken, Doney, Scott, Ducklow, Hugh, Fennel, Katja, Follows, Mick, Haidvogel, Dale, Hoffman, Eileen, Karl, David, Kindle, John, Lima, Ivan, Maltrud, Mathew, McClain, Chuck, McGillicuddy, Dennis, Olascoaga, M., Spitz, Yvette, Wiggert, Jerry, and Yoder, James

Abstract:

THE ROLE OF THE OCEANS in Earth systems ecology, and the effects of climate variability on the ocean and its ecosystems, can be understood only by observing, describing, and ultimately predicting the state of the ocean as a physically forced ecological and biogeochemical system. This is a daunting but exciting...
