Impact of climate change on marine pelagic phenology and trophic mismatch

Phenology, the study of annually recurring life cycle events such as the timing of migrations and flowering, can provide particularly sensitive indicators of climate change. Changes in phenology may… (More)

The jellyfish joyride: causes, consequences and management responses to a more gelatinous future.

Anthony J. Richardson, Andrew Bakun, Graeme C Hays, Mark John Gibbons
Trends in ecology & evolution
2009

Human-induced stresses of overfishing, eutrophication, climate change, translocation and habitat modification appear to be promoting jellyfish (pelagic cnidarian and ctenophore) blooms to the… (More)

Global imprint of climate change on marine life

E B Brown, William J. Sydeman, +9 authors Anthony J. Richardson
2013

Past meta-analyses of the response of marine organisms to climate change have examined a limited range of locations1,2, taxonomic groups2–4 and/or biological responses5,6. This has precluded a robust… (More)

Seasonal movements and behaviour of basking sharks from archival tagging : no evidence of winter hibernation

Habitat selection processes in highly migratory animals such as sharks and whales are important to understand because they influence patterns of distribution, availability and therefore catch rates.… (More)

The pace of shifting climate in marine and terrestrial ecosystems.

Michael T. Burrows, David S. Schoeman, +16 authors Anthony J. Richardson
Science
2011

Climate change challenges organisms to adapt or move to track changes in environments in space and time. We used two measures of thermal shifts from analyses of global temperatures over the past 50… (More)

Pelagic protected areas: the missing dimension in ocean conservation.

Edward T. Game, Hedley S. Grantham, +7 authors Anthony J. Richardson
Trends in ecology & evolution
2009

Fewer protected areas exist in the pelagic ocean than any other ecosystem on Earth. Although there is increasing support for marine protected areas (MPAs) as a tool for pelagic conservation, there… (More)

Biology, ecology and conservation of the Mobulidae.

Lydie I. E. Couturier, Andrea D. Marshall, +6 authors Anthony J. Richardson
Journal of fish biology
2012

The Mobulidae are zooplanktivorous elasmobranchs comprising two recognized species of manta rays (Manta spp.) and nine recognized species of devil rays (Mobula spp.). They are found circumglobally in… (More)

Long-term oceanographic and ecological research in the Western English Channel.

Alan J. Southward, Olivia Langmead, +16 authors Stephen J. Hawkins
Advances in marine biology
2005

Long-term research in the western English Channel, undertaken by the marine laboratories in Plymouth, is described and details of survey methods, sites, and time series given in this chapter. Major… (More)

From plankton to top predators: bottom-up control of a marine food web across four trophic levels.

Morten S. Frederiksen, Martin Edwards, Anthony J. Richardson, Nicholas C. Halliday, Sarah Wanless
The Journal of animal ecology
2006

1. Abundant mid-trophic pelagic fish often play a central role in marine ecosystems, both as links between zooplankton and top predators and as important fishery targets. In the North Sea, the lesser… (More)

Identifying four phytoplankton functional types from space : An ecological approach

Deriving maps of phytoplankton taxa based on remote sensing data using bio-optical properties of phytoplankton alone is challenging. A more holistic approach was developed using artificial neural… (More)
