• Biological Impacts of Marine Heatwaves 

      Smith, Kathryn E.; Burrows, Michael T.; Hobday, Alistair J.; King, Nathan G.; Moore, Pippa J.; Sen Gupta, Alex; Thomsen, Mads S.; Wernberg, Thomas; Smale, Dan A. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Climatic extremes are becoming increasingly common against a background trend of global warming. In the oceans, marine heatwaves (MHWs)—discrete periods of anomalously warm water—have intensified and become more frequent ...
    • Dynamics of shallow-water juvenile flatfish nursery grounds: application of the self-thinning rule 

      Nash, Richard D.M.; Geffen, Audrey J.; Burrows, Michael T.; Gibson, Robin N. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2007-08-23)
      Annual development of density and mean weight of juvenile plaice Pleuronectes platessa was examined at 2 nursery grounds (Port Erin Bay, Isle of Man, Irish Sea and Admucknish Bay, Firth of Lorne, west coast of Scotland) ...
    • Global estimates of the extent and production of macroalgal forests 

      Duarte, Carlos M.; Gattuso, Jean-Pierre; Hancke, Kasper; Gundersen, Hege; Filbee-Dexter, Karen; Pedersen, Morten Foldager; Middelburg, J.J.; Burrows, Michael T.; Krumhansl, Kira A.; Wernberg, Thomas; Moore, Pippa J.; Pessarrodona, Albert; Ørberg, Sarah; Pinto, Isabel Sousa; Assis, Jorge; Queirós, Ana M.; Smale, Dan A; Bekkby, Trine; Serrão, Ester A.; Krause-Jensen, Dorte (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Macroalgal habitats are believed to be the most extensive and productive of all coastal vegetated ecosystems. In stark contrast to the growing attention on their contribution to carbon export and sequestration, understanding ...
    • Global seaweed productivity 

      Pessarrodona, Albert; Assis, Jorge; Filbee-Dexter, Karen; Burrows, Michael T.; Gattuso, Jean-Pierre; Duarte, Carlos M.; Krause-Jensen, Dorte; Moore, Pippa J.; Smale, Dan A.; Wernberg, Thomas (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      The magnitude and distribution of net primary production (NPP) in the coastal ocean remains poorly constrained, particularly for shallow marine vegetation. Here, using a compilation of in situ annual NPP measurements across ...

    • Kelp carbon sink potential decreases with warming due to accelerating decomposition 

      Filbee-Dexter, Karen; Feehan, Colette J.; Smale, Dan A.; Krumhansl, Kira A.; Augustine, Skye; de Bettignies, Florian; Burrows, Michael T.; Byrnes, Jarrett E.K.; Campbell, Jillian; Davoult, Dominique; Dunton, Kenneth H.; Franco, Joao N.; Garrido, Ignacio; Grace, Sean P.; Hancke, Kasper; Johnson, Ladd E.; Konar, Brenda; Moore, Pippa J.; Norderhaug, Kjell Magnus; O'Dell, Alasdair; Pedersen, Morten F.; Salomon, Anne K.; Sousa-Pinto, Isabel; Tiegs, Scott; Yiu, Dara; Wernberg, Thomas (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Cycling of organic carbon in the ocean has the potential to mitigate or exacerbate global climate change, but major questions remain about the environmental controls on organic carbon flux in the coastal zone. Here, we ...
