Offshore pelagic subsidies dominate carbon inputs to coral reef predators
(American Association for the Advancement of Science, 2021-02-19)Coral reefs were traditionally perceived as productive hot spots in oligotrophic waters. While modern evidence indicates that many coral reef food webs are heavily subsidized by planktonic production, the pathways through ... -

Extreme heterogeneity in mid-ocean ridge mantle revealed in lavas from the 8 degrees 20 ' N near-axis seamount chain
(American Geophysical Union, 2020-12-14)Lavas that have erupted at near‐axis seamounts provide windows into mid‐ocean ridge mantle heterogeneity and melting systematics which are not easily observed on‐axis at fast‐spreading centers. Beneath ridges, most ... -
Spatial heterogeneity in particle-associated, light-independent superoxide production within productive coastal waters
(American Geophysical Union, 2020-10-06)In the marine environment, the reactive oxygen species (ROS) superoxide is produced through a diverse array of light‐dependent and light‐independent reactions, the latter of which is thought to be primarily controlled by ... -
