Diatom Community Composition Shifts Driven by Coherent Cyclonic Mesoscale Eddies in the California Current System
<p>The California Current System (CCS) is characterized by an equatorward flowing eastern boundary current, as well as seasonal wind-driven coastal upwelling which supplies nutrient-rich waters to the surface and drives high coastal productivity. Cyclonic mesoscale eddies form off the coast in the …

On the Impact of Submesoscale Fronts on Mesoscale Eddies and Biological Productivity in the California Current System
… be particularly relevant for regions like the California Current System (CCS) where mesoscale processes redistribute nutrients and organic matter to offshore regions. In this study, the impact of submesoscale fronts on mesoscale eddies and biological productivity is examined by comparing two …

RADIOLARIAN BIOSTRATIGRAPHIC AND PALEOCEANOGRAPHIC STUDIES OF MONTEREY-LIKE ROCKS OF THE HUMBOLDT BASIN, NORTHERN CALIFORNIA
… sediments of the Humboldt Basin, northern California, have been investigated for the presence of radiolarian fauna. The vast majority of the radiolaria found are cold water indicators, however there are four distinct periods of invasion of warm water fauna. Two minor ones occurring at …

Fishery Interaction Modeling of Cetacean Bycatch in the California Drift Gillnet Fishery to Inform a Dynamic Ocean Management Tool
… aspect in efforts to reduce bycatch. In the California drift gillnet fishery static management approaches and gear changes have reduced bycatch but neither measure ascertains the underlying dynamics causing bycatch events. To avoid further potentially drastic measures such as hard caps, …
