Long-term dynamics of forage base and food supply for nekton in the upper epipelagic layer of the western Bering Sea. Part 2. Food supply for nekton by S. V. Naydenko, A. A. Somov

“…Summary in the summer-fall periods, the fish and squids consumed 2–5 % of zooplankton production (up to 5–7 % in some years) in the deep-sea basins that is rather low degree of the zooplankton resources usage. In the Navarin area, the consumption is considerably higher and is estimated as 5 % in summer and 21 % in fall season, on average. …”

Leaf water uptake strategy of plants in the arid and semi-arid region of Ningxia by CHEN Lin, YANG Xinguo, SONG Naiping, YANG Mingxiu, XIAO Xupei, WANG Xing

“…Our objective was to investigate whether the plant leaf can uptake the rainfall that can not be absorbed by plant roots, and to understand leaf water uptake strategy, the relationship between leaf water uptake capability and plant ecological functional types in the arid and semi-arid region of Ningxia.The leaf water uptake content (LWUC), percentage increase in leaf water content (RW), chlorophyll content (ChlC), leaf water saturation deficit (WSD), specific leaf area (SLA) and leaf dry matter content (LDMC) of 50 plants were measured, and patterns of leaf traits were investigated to detect their difference among functional groups and relationships between each trait. …”

Spatiotemporal impact of mesoscale eddies on chlorophyll-a concentration in the North Atlantic by Jinghui Cai, Jialong Sun, Jialong Sun, Jialong Sun, Siyuan Qin, Yaonan Li

“…IntroductionMesoscale eddies play a crucial role in energy transport and ecological regulation in the North Atlantic Ocean.MethodsBased on multi-source datasets, including satellite remote sensing and Argo float observations from 2009 to 2018, this study employs the Velocity Gradient Detection (VGD) method to identify eddy boundaries and cores, in combination with a spatiotemporal dynamic matching technique, to systematically analyze eddy characteristics and their impacts on chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) concentrations.ResultsResults show that eddy activity is predominantly concentrated in the Gulf Stream extension region (24°N–48°N, 40°W–60°W). …”
