Ocean acidification causes ecosystem shifts via altered competitive interactions
Ocean acidification represents a pervasive environmental change that is predicted to affect a wide range of species1,2, yet our understanding of the emergent ecosystem impacts is very limited. Many studies report detrimental effects of acidification on single species in lab studies, especially those with calcareous shells or skeletons3–5. Observational studies using naturally acidified ecosyste...
متن کاملEcosystem Overfishing in the Ocean
Fisheries catches represent a net export of mass and energy that can no longer be used by trophic levels higher than those fished. Thus, exploitation implies a depletion of secondary production of higher trophic levels (here the production of mass and energy by herbivores and carnivores in the ecosystem) due to the removal of prey. The depletion of secondary production due to the export of biom...
متن کاملRendering a dangerous healthcare ocean safer.
799 October 2015, Vol. 105, No. 10 Take a tidal wave of patients, a trickle of specialists and a small shoal of medical students eager to palpate, probe and prick (at the very least), and mix them together in the public sector sea for several consecutive years. No CPD points for guessing the range of adverse events that can follow, and inevitably will. The reality is that these ongoing ratios c...
متن کاملinterpersonal function of language in subtitling
translation as a comunicative process is always said to be associated with various aspects of meaning loss or gain. subtitling as a mode of translating, due to special discoursal and textual conditions imposed upon it, is believed to be an obvious case of this loss or gain. presenting the spoken sound track of a film in writing and synchronizing the perception of this text by the viewers with...
15 صفحه اولEcosystem regime shifts disrupt trophic structure.
Regime shifts between alternative stable ecosystem states are becoming commonplace due to the combined effects of local stressors and global climate change. Alternative states are characterized as substantially different in form and function from pre-disturbance states, disrupting the delivery of ecosystem services and functions. On coral reefs, regime shifts are typically characterized by a ch...
