• Larval fish abundance and physical forcing in the Gulf of Alaska, 1981–2003 (2009, background): “…changes in zooplankton biomass and species composition in the northeast Pacific have been documented in response to these particular regime shifts (Mackas et al., 2001, 2004; Batten and Welch, 2004), implying a broad planktonic connection with basin-scale change that may have affected these…”
• Effects of Climate and Stock Size on Recruitment and Growth of Pacific Halibut (2002, background): “Observed changes have included (1) a doubling of total zooplankton biomass following the 1976‐1977 regime shift (Brodeur and Ware 1992; Brodeur et al. 1996); (2) an earlier and narrower developmental period for Neocalanus plumchrus, a dominant copepod species, in response to warmer surface waters (M”
• Matches and mismatches: ocean climate, prey phenology and breeding success in a zooplanktivorous seabird (2008, background): “Mackas et al. (2001) found a positive association between the magnitude of the annual Neocalanus copepod biomass peak and the intensity of summer upwelling off southern British Columbia.”
• The seasonal cycle revisited: interannual variation and ecosystem consequences (2001, background): “A greater infl uence of southeasterly winds in spring during the 1990s may have delayed the transition from downwelling to upwelling conditions at Triangle Island, increased the northward advection of more southerly ocean water, and changed the species composition of prey and predators during spring”
• Evaluation of functional trait diversity for marine zooplankton communities in the Northeast subarctic Pacific Ocean (2015, background): “The selection of these species was largely intended to reflect the main crustacean zooplankton community of the Gulf of Alaska and the subarctic northeast Pacific Ocean, as well as some northern California Current indicator species (See Mackas et al., 2001, 2004, 2007).”
