• Molecular detection of algal prey in copepod guts and fecal pellets (2003, background): “…and behavior of planktonic organisms influence important oceanic processes including cycling of climate gasses, vertical flux of carbon and nutrients, and occurrence of harmful blooms, and for the development of reliable ecosystem models for prediction of marine fisheries (Verity et al. 2002).”
• Gelatinous plankton: irregularities rule the world (sometimes) (2008, background): “However, this is a central issue for the development of reliable ecosystem models aimed, for instance, at the management of marine fisheries (Verity et al. 2002).”
• You can swim but you can't hide: the global status and conservation of oceanic pelagic sharks and rays (2008, background): “However, the increasing scale of human exploitation of the seas, coupled with evidence of declines and population extinctions, may forewarn of increasing loss of coastal and oceanic biodiversity (Verity et al., 2002; Dulvy et al., 2003; Hilborn et al., 2003; Myers and Worm, 2005).”
• Satellite telemetry of marine megavertebrates: the coming of age of an experimental science (2009, background): “The emphasis on these species was driven by their ecological significance as top predators and by their worsening conservation status (Verity et al. 2002, BirdLife International 2004, Halpin et al. 2009).”
• State of the World’s Fisheries (2003, background): “Oil spills have been decreasing over the past 30 years, but they continue to be more devastating than oil exploration due to their intensity (23), and the ecological damage from the 1989 Exxon Valdezspill is widely considered the worst ever (25).”
