Ecology of a North Sea pockmark with an active methane seep
ABSTRACT: At a large North Sea pockmark, with active methane seeps, surface sediments were found to have higher insoluble sulphide concentrations than sedlments from the surrounding area. The fauna…

Effects of changing temperature on benthic marine life in Britain and Ireland
TLDR
A key supported by a decision tree has been constructed to identify ‘types’ of organism according to their likely response to temperature rise, and many species are shown as likely to increase their range northwards significantly and fewer will decline in abundance and extent in the north.

Food sources, behaviour, and distribution of hydrothermal vent shrimps at the Mid-Atlantic Ridge
TLDR
Five species of bresilioid shrimp were investigated at seven hydrothermal sites on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge and associations, whether endosymbiont-containing animals such as Bathymodiolus and the vestimentiferan tube-worms of the Pacific vents, may be necessary for the development of flourishing communities at hydroThermal vents.

Recolonization of Rocky Shores in Cornwall After Use of Toxic Dispersants to Clean Up the Torrey Canyon Spill
Fourteen thousand tons of Kuwait crude oil, reduced from 18 000 tons by weathering at sea, was stranded along 150 km of the coast of West Cornwall, England, in March 1967. The oil was treated with 10…

Note on the Temperature Tolerances of some Intertidal animals in Relation to Environmental Temperatures and Geographical Distribution
  • A. Southward
  • Environmental Science
    Journal of the Marine Biological Association of…
  • 1 February 1958
TLDR
It is clear that the temperatures experienced on the shore are well within the tolerance limits of most of the animals, and even exceptional extremes of temperature may have little direct influence on the distribution of adult intertidal animals.

Changes in the Range of Some Common Rocky Shore Species in Britain – A Response to Climate Change?
Since the 1990s there has been a period of rapid climate warming in Europe. Long-term broad scale datasets coupled with time series at specific locations for rocky intertidal species dating back to…
