• Lessons from the first generation of marine ecological forecast products 

      Payne, Mark R.; Hobday, Alistair J.; MacKenzie, Brian R.; Tommasi, Desiree; Dempsey, Danielle P.; Fässler, Sascha M. M.; Haynie, Alan C.; Ji, Rubao; Liu, Gang; Lynch, Patrick; Matei, Daniela; Miesner, Anna K.; Mills, Kathrine E.; Strand, Kjersti Opstad; Villarino, Ernesto (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)
    • Modelling the sources of mortality for larval haddock on Georges Bank and their effects on behavior 

      Petrik, Colleen M.; Davis, Cabell S.; Ji, Rubao; Lough, R. G.; Kristiansen, Trond (ICES CM documents;2009/T:08, Working paper, 2009)
      Fish larvae have the ability to change their vertical position in the water column and thusly cannot be treated as passive particles in coupled biological-physical individualbased models (IBMs). The vertical variability ...
    • Rapid climate-driven circulation changes threaten conservation of endangered north atlantic right whales 

      Record, Nicholas R; Runge, Jeffrey A.; Pendleton, Daniel; Balch, William M; Davies, Kimberley T A; Pershing, Andrew; Johnson, Catherine Lynn; Stamieszkin, Karen; Ji, Rubao; Feng, Zhixuan; Kraus, Scott D; Kenney, Robert D; Hudak, Christy A; Mayo, Charles A; Chen, Changsheng; Salisbury, Joseph E.; Thompson, Cameron (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      As climate trends accelerate, ecosystems will be pushed rapidly into new states, reducing the potential efficacy of conservation strategies based on historical patterns. In the Gulf of Maine, climate-driven changes have ...
    • Seasonal phytoplankton blooms in the North Atlantic linked to the overwintering strategies of copepods 

      Friedland, Kevin D; Record, Nicholas R; Asch, Rebecca G; Kristiansen, Trond; Saba, Vincent S; Drinkwater, Kennneth F.; Henson, Stephanie; Leaf, Robert T; Morse, Ryan E; Johns, David G; Large, Scott I; Hjøllo, Solfrid Sætre; Nye, Janet A; Alexander, Mike A; Ji, Rubao (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)
      The North Atlantic Ocean contains diverse patterns of seasonal phytoplankton blooms with distinct internal dynamics. We analyzed blooms using remotely-sensed chlorophyll a concentration data and change point statistics. ...
    • The interactive effects of temperature and food consumption on growth of larval Arctic cod (Boreogadus saida): A bioenergetic model 

      David, Carmen L.; Ji, Rubao; Bouchar, Caroline; Hop, Haakon; Hutchings, Jeffrey (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Understanding larval growth, mediated by the interaction of early life traits and environmental conditions, is crucial to elucidate population dynamics. We used a bioenergetic model as an integrative tool to simulate the ...
