Results of an experiment on recruitment and succession on a tropical benthic reef community in response to in-situ ocean acidification in Puerto Morelos, Quintana Roo, Mexico from 2010-2011 (CalcificationLowSatSeawater project)
(Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO). Contact: bco-dmo-data@whoi.edu, 2021-11-24)Results of an experiment on recruitment and succession on a tropical benthic reef community in response to in-situ ocean acidification in Puerto Morelos, Quintana Roo, Mexico from 2010-2011.

Images of cellular ultrastructure of benthic foraminifera from Arctic seeps
(Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 2021-11-01)Dissociation of methane hydrates due to ocean warming releases methane, a powerful greenhouse gas, to the atmosphere. Dissociation of gas hydrates may have led to rapid and dramatic environmental changes in the past. Thus, ... -
Ratio of electron donor to acceptor influences metabolic specialization and denitrification dynamics in Pseudomonas aeruginosa in a mixed carbon medium
(Frontiers Media, 2021-09-10)Denitrifying microbes sequentially reduce nitrate (NO3–) to nitrite (NO2–), NO, N2O, and N2 through enzymes encoded by nar, nir, nor, and nos. Some denitrifiers maintain the whole four-gene pathway, but others possess ... -
An intermittent detachment faulting system with a large sulfide deposit revealed by multi-scale magnetic surveys
(Nature Research, 2021-09-24)Magmatic and tectonic processes can contribute to discontinuous crustal accretion and play an important role in hydrothermal circulation at ultraslow-spreading ridges, however, it is difficult to accurately describe the ... -
Compound-specific stable isotope analysis of amino acids in pelagic shark vertebrae reveals baseline, trophic, and physiological effects on bulk protein isotope records
(Frontiers Media, 2021-09-01)Variations in stable carbon and nitrogen isotope compositions in incremental tissues of pelagic sharks can be used to infer aspects of their spatial and trophic ecology across life-histories. Interpretations from bulk ... -
A simple model for assessing climate control trade-offs and responding to unanticipated climate outcomes
(IOP Publishing, 2021-09-21)Persistent greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions threaten global climate goals and have prompted consideration of climate controls supplementary to emissions mitigation. We present MARGO, an idealized model of optimally-controlled ... -
Local versus site-level effects of algae on coral microbial communities
(The Royal Society, 2021-09-15)Microbes influence ecological processes, including the dynamics and health of macro-organisms and their interactions with other species. In coral reefs, microbes mediate negative effects of algae on corals when corals are ... -
Particle triggered reactions as an important mechanism of alkalinity and inorganic carbon removal in river plumes
(American Geophysical Union, 2021-05-20)The effects of heterogeneous reactions between river-borne particles and the carbonate system were studied in the plumes of the Mississippi and Brazos rivers. Measurements within these plumes revealed significant removal ... -
Diatom hotspots driven by western boundary current instability
(American Geophysical Union, 2021-05-11)Climatic changes have decreased the stability of the Gulf Stream (GS), increasing the frequency at which its meanders interact with the Mid-Atlantic Bight (MAB) continental shelf and slope region. These intrusions are ... -
Plastic formulation is an emerging control of its photochemical fate in the ocean
(American Chemical Society, 2021-09-08)Sunlight exposure is a control of long-term plastic fate in the environment that converts plastic into oxygenated products spanning the polymer, dissolved, and gas phases. However, our understanding of how plastic formulation ... -
