Climate Change Impacts on Marine Ecosystems

Creator:: Doney, Scott C., Ruckelshaus, Mary, Duffy, J. Emmett, Barry, James P., Chan, Francis, English, Chad A., Galindo, Heather M., Grebmeier, Jacqueline M., Hollowed, Anne B., Knowlton, Nancy, Polovina, Jeffrey, Rabalais, Nancy N., Sydeman, William J., and Talley, Lynne D.
Abstract:: In marine ecosystems, rising atmospheric CO2 and climate change are associated with concurrent shifts in temperature, circulation, stratification, nutrient input, oxygen content, and ocean acidification, with potentially wideranging biological effects. Population-level shifts are occurring because of physiological intolerance to new environments, altered dispersal patterns, and changes in species interactions. Together...
