Possibly the most important ecology paper published in Science this century?...science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

Diversity begets stability: Sublinear growth and competitive coexistence across ecosystems

Modeling population growth as sublinear instead of logistic predicts that ecological stability increases with diversity.

Great work by a great team. Continued innovation how to use ocean color to understand global change news.mit.edu/2023/study-ocea…

Study: The ocean’s color is changing as a consequence of climate change

The ocean’s color has changed significantly in 20 years, and the trend is likely a consequence of human-induced climate change, report scientists at MIT and elsewhere.

Canada’s forage fish are dwindling, placing the Atlantic economy under threat theglobeandmail.com/business…

Opinion: Canada’s forage fish are dwindling, placing the Atlantic economy under threat

The small fish that are the basic feedstock of the oceans are declining in number, and need to be protected

Fascinating emissions-driven earth system feedback in the global marine ecosystem reported by Taucher et al. Shifts in the Si:N supply ratio would have serious implications for phytoplankton biogeography and associated food webs..
Lennart Bach@bach_lennart25 May 2022
This study led by Jan Taucher (n.o.T.) found that ocean acidification negatively affects diatoms through an Earth system feedback. This contrasts our current knowledge and sends a warning sign on how we interpret experiments. 🧵 1/9 nature.com/articles/s41586-0…
