• Fronts and eddies as key structures in the habitat of marine fish larvae: opportunity, adaptive response and competitive advantage (2006, background): “An interesting example of this latter case is provided by Seki et al. (2002), who reported that catches of marlin, while clearly associated with the cyclonic eddy that characteristically”
• Movements of satellite-tagged Blainville's beaked whales off the island of Hawai'i (2009, unknown): “The association with the island of Hawai‘i may be due to a local increase in productivity, resulting from islandassociated upwelling caused by strong local trade winds and island topography (Seki et al. 2001).”
• SITE FIDELITY, ASSOCIATIONS, AND MOVEMENTS OF CUVIER'S (ZIPHIUS CAVIROSTRIS) AND BLAINVILLE'S (MESOPLODON DENSIROSTRIS) BEAKED WHALES OFF THE ISLAND OF HAWAI‘I (2007, background): “…runoff and upwelling driven by the “island mass effect” and wind stress curl (Doty and Oguri 1956, Gilmartin and Revelante 1974), as well as upwelling associated with cyclonic eddies that are generated in the lee (to the west) of the island of Hawai‘i (Seki et al. 2001, 2002; Bidigare et al. 2003).”
• Movements and habitat use of satellite-tagged false killer whales around the main Hawaiian Islands (2010, background): “With the strong winds funneling through the channels between the islands, there is increased eddy formation on the leeward side of the islands that should increase local productivity (e.g. Seki et al. 2001, 2002).”
• Site fidelity and association patterns in a deep-water dolphin: Rough-toothed dolphins (Steno bredanensis) in the Hawaiian Archipelago (2008, background): “In addition, cyclonic eddies that form in the lee of the island of Hawai‘i cause upwelling and substantially increased productivity (Seki et al. 2001, 2002, Bidigare et al. 2003).”
• Odontocete Cetaceans Around the Main Hawaiian Islands: Habitat Use and Relative Abundance from Small-Boat Sighting Surveys (2013, background): “Sea state did vary by island area (Table 2), with the best conditions off Hawai‘i Island and the worst Habitat Use and Relative Abundance of Hawaiian Odontocetes 34 Figure 1 Top new option (3 versions, Enhanced Metafile, Windows Metafile, JPEG) Bair et al. 257 conditions off Kaua‘i and Ni‘ihau.”
• The importance of oceanographic fronts to marine birds and mammals of the southern oceans (2009, background): “Eddies are characterized by increase in marine productivity and zooplankton biomass relative to adjacent waters (Seki et al., 2001; Polovina et al., 2004; Hyrenbach et al., 2006).”
• Mesoscale physical–biological–biogeochemical linkages in the open ocean : an introduction to the results of the E-Flux and EDDIES programs (2008, background): “The same is true for young (1 month) and weak Cyclone Mikalele, whereas Cyclone Loretta was older (6 months) yet still strong enough that it accommodated a two-fold enhancement in diatoms (Seki et al., 2001; Table 1).”
