DOI: 10.1002/2016jg003636
Abstract: Threshold is defined as the point where small changes in an environmental driver produce large responses in the ecosystem. Generalized additive models (GAMs) were used to estimate the thresholds and contribution of key dynamic physical… read more here.

The 2004 Sumatra tsunami in the Southeastern Pacific Ocean: New Global Insight from Observations and Modeling
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Journal of Geophysical Research"
DOI: 10.1002/2017jc013078
Abstract: The 2004 Sumatra tsunami was an unprecedented global disaster measured throughout the world oceans. The present study focused on a region of the southeastern Pacific Ocean where the “westward” circumferentially propagating tsunami branch converged with… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/2017jd026575
Abstract: Severe drought in California between 2013 and 2016 has been linked to the multi-year persistence of anomalously high atmospheric pressure over the Northeastern Pacific Ocean, which deflected the Pacific storm track northward and suppressed regional… read more here.

Tropical Pacific Ocean Influence on Recent Changes in Summer Rainfall Over the Yangtze–Huai River Valley
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2025 at "International Journal of Climatology"
DOI: 10.1002/joc.8819
Abstract: Summer rainfall over the Yangtze–Huai River valley (YHRV) exhibits prominent decadal variability, and understanding the underlying mechanisms of this variability is essential for improving climate predictions and disaster prevention strategies in the region. Despite extensive… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00227-023-04366-2
Abstract: Oxygen minimum zones in the open ocean are predicted to significantly increase in volume over the coming decades as a result of anthropogenic climatic warming. The resulting reduction in dissolved oxygen (DO) in the pelagic… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10236-019-01255-5
Abstract: A method based on the Okubo–Weiss parameter was used to detect subsurface eddies (SSEs) with an eddy-resolving ocean general circulation model. Statistical analyses showed that SSEs are ubiquitous in the northwestern Pacific Ocean. Three regions… read more here.

Comparison of community structures between particle-associated and free-living prokaryotes in tropical and subtropical Pacific Ocean surface waters

DOI: 10.1007/s10872-016-0410-0
Abstract: The subtropical and tropical regions of the Pacific Ocean are less productive than other oceanic regions. Although particle association should be an important strategy for heterotrophic prokaryotes to survive in such environments, we have little… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10872-017-0433-1
Abstract: We used more than 25,000 nutrient samples to elucidate for the first time basin-scale distributions and seasonal changes of surface ammonium (NH4+) and nitrite (NO2−) concentrations in the Pacific Ocean. The highest NH4+, NO2−, and… read more here.

Flyingfish (Exocoetidae) species diversity and habitats in the eastern tropical Pacific Ocean
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Marine Biodiversity"
DOI: 10.1007/s12526-017-0666-7
Abstract: Flyingfishes are large enough to eat zooplankton, small enough to be consumed by top predators, and therefore form a central mid-trophic component of tropical epipelagic marine food webs. Characterizing patterns of flyingfish abundance, distribution, and… read more here.
