Marine defaunation: Animal loss in the global ocean (2015, background): “The effects of rising ocean temperature extend well beyond coral reefs and are predicted to affect both the adult and juvenile stages of a diverse set of marine species (77), to reshuffle marine community composition (78), and to potentially alter the overall structure and dynamics of entire marine ”
Projecting future changes in distributions of pelagic fish species of Northeast Pacific shelf seas (2015, positive): “…temperature and oxygen content (represented by O 2 concentration) would affect growth of marine fishes and invertebrates using a sub-model derived from a generalized von Bertalanffy growth function (VBGF; Cheung et al., 2013a, 2013b): dW dt ¼ H Á W a À kW ð1aÞ W t ¼ W 1 Á 1 À e ÀKðtÀt 0 Þ Â Ã1 1Àa”
OMIP contribution to CMIP6: experimental and diagnostic protocol for the physical component of the Ocean Model Intercomparison Project (2016, background): “To study impacts on ecosystems from climate change, it is useful to measure changes in bottom temperature (Section H16) and salinity (Cheung et al., 2013; Gehlen and Dunne, 2014; Saba et al., 2015).”
Demographic changes in Chinook salmon across the Northeast Pacific Ocean (2018, background): “While the faster life history with higher growth rate and smaller maximum size could be a response to climate warming (Cheung et al., 2013; Gardner et al., 2011; Ohlberger, 2013; Sheridan & Bickford, 2011), temperatures in the coastal waters”
Inferring food web structure from predator–prey body size relationships (2013, background): “Similarly, global warming is also expected to alter fish body size distribution towards smaller species (Cheung et al. 2012).”
