• Trophic relationships along a bathymetric gradient at the deep-sea observatory HAUSGARTEN (2009, neutral): “Climate change is the prominent global environmental threat of the 21st Century (IPCC, 2007) and will have severe impacts on the carbon flux to the deep seafloor (Smith et al., 2008), especially in the Arctic (Grebmeier et al., 2006).”
• Late summer phytoplankton distribution along a 3500 km transect in Canadian Arctic waters: strong numerical dominance by picoeukaryotes (2009, neutral): “These environmental changes will have consequences throughout the ecosystem, from altering the patterns of primary production to changing the trophic structure and the elemental cycling pathways (Grebmeier et al. 2006).”
• Seasonal home ranges and fidelity to breeding sites among ringed seals (2010, neutral): “For example, shorter periods of ice cover will decrease the supply of ice algae, and increase the supply of phytoplankton reaching benthic shelf communities (Overland and Stabeno 2004; Grebmeier et al. 2006).”

• Projecting future changes in distributions of pelagic fish species of Northeast Pacific shelf seas (2015, neutral): “conditions in the past decade lead to changes in biological communities, including shifts in marine mammal distributions, reductions of benthic prey populations, and increases in pelagic fishes (Grebmeier et al., 2006).”
• Climate change impacts on the biophysics and economics of world fisheries (2011, neutral): “Changes in climate, sea-ice extent and hydrographic conditions in the past decade has led to changes in the biological communities of the Bering Sea, including distributional shifts in marine mammal populations, reductions in benthic prey populations and increases in pelagic fish abundanc”
• Marine seismic surveys and ocean noise: time for coordinated and prudent planning (2015, neutral): “Obtaining such data is especially critical, as climate-driven changes may be altering community structure and function (eg Grebmeier et al. 2006).”
• The first demersal trawl survey of benthic fish and invertebrates in the Beaufort Sea since the late 1970s (2011, neutral): “Similarly, in the northeast Chukchi Sea, polar cod greater than age 3 found offshore were significantly larger than the same age fish found inshore (Gillispie et al. 1997).”
• Climate change and coral reef bleaching: An ecological assessment of long-term impacts, recovery trends and future outlook (2008, neutral): “These assessments are already underway (Sarmiento et al., 2004; Grebmeier et al., 2006), but as changes in the climate system begin to mature over the coming years, it will be increasingly important to refine these forecasts by ground-truthing them against observations.”
• Food web structure of a coastal Arctic marine ecosystem and implications for stability (2013, neutral): “From a top-down perspective, re - ductions in sea ice and warmer water temperatures have already resulted in the once benthic-dominated community of the Bering Sea shifting towards dominance by pelagic fish (Grebmeier et al. 2006).”
• Quantifying the sensitivity of Arctic marine mammals to climate-induced habitat change. (2008, neutral): “In addition, the productivity of walrus prey populations is likely to be directly impacted by warming of their environment (Grebmeier et al. 2006).”

• Impacts of changing sea-ice conditions on Arctic marine mammals (2011, neutral): “…near-shore areas for feeding (Born 2005), but all walruses are dependent on benthic-pelagic coupling permitting rich benthic communities of bivalves, which are fed in part by vertical flux from ice-algae and MIZ algal blooms (Hobson et al. 1995; Grebmeier et al. 2006a, b; Tamelander et al. 2006).”
