In recent years, there has been an increase in episodic coastal hypoxia along the mid to inner-shelf waters off the Oregon Coast. Wind-driven coastal upwelling events can exacerbate the magnitude of these hypoxic events, causing extremely hypoxic bottom water (<0.5ml l-1 dissolved oxygen) to move onshore towards the inner shelf....
Genome instability is a prerequisite for the development of cancer. It occurs when genome maintenance systems fail to safeguard the genome’s integrity, whether as a consequence of inherited defects or induced via exposure to environmental agents (chemicals, biological agents and radiation). Thus, genome instability can be defined as an enhanced...
The Chloroflexi CL500-11 clade contributes a large proportion of the bacterial biomass in the oxygenated hypolimnia of deep lakes worldwide, including the world's largest freshwater system, the Laurentian Great Lakes. Traits that allow CL500-11 to thrive and its biogeochemical role in these environments are currently unknown. Here, we found that...

Previous projects in the Gulf of Lion have investigated the path of terrigenous material
in the Rhone deltaic system, the continental shelf and the nearby canyon heads. This
study focuses on the slope region of the Gulf of Lion to further describe particulate
exchanges with ocean’s interior through submarine canyons....
