Marine teleost fishes often experience over 99% mortality in the early life stages (eggs and larvae), yet larval survival is essential to population sustainability. Marine fish larvae from a wide range of families display elaborate, delicate features that bear little resemblance to adult forms and hinder their swimming escape ability...

Mesoscale fronts occur frequently in many coastal areas and often are sites of elevated
productivity; however, knowledge of the fine-scale distribution of zooplankton at these
fronts is lacking, particularly within the mid-trophic levels. Furthermore, small (<13 cm) gelatinous
zooplankton are ubiquitous, but are under-studied, and their abundances underestimated
due to...

Dating pelagic clay can be a challenge due to its slow sedimentation rate, post-depositional alteration, and lack of biogenic deposition. Co-based dating techniques have the potential to create age models in pelagic clay under the assumption that the flux of non-detrital Co to the seafloor is spatially and temporally constant,...

We present multiple lines of evidence for years to decade-long changes in the location and
character of volcanic activity at West Mata seamount in the NE Lau basin over a 16 year period, and a hiatus
in summit eruptions from early 2011 to at least September 2012. Boninite lava and...

Submarine volcanic eruptions can result in both real and apparent changes in marine algal communities, e.g., increases in phytoplankton biomass and/or growth rates that can cover thousands of square kilometers. Satellite ocean color monitoring detects these changes as increases in chlorophyll and particulate backscattering. Detailed, high resolution analysis is needed...
