Benthic macrofauna is an important component linking pelagic and benthic ecosystems, especially in productive coastal areas. Through their metabolism behaviour, animals affect biogeochemical fluxes between the sediment water column. Mechanistic models that quantify these benthic-pelagic links are imperative to understand functioning of ecosystems. In this study, we develop a dynamic model relationship organic matter input macrofaunal biomass zone. The simulates carbon dynamics three...
Abstract The occurrence of regime shifts in marine ecosystems has important implications for environmental legislation that requires setting reference levels and targets quantitative restoration outcomes. Baltic Sea ecosystem undergone large changes the 20 th century related to anthropogenic pressures climate variability, which have caused reorganization. Here, we compiled historical information identified relationships our dataset using multivariate statistics modeling across 31 biotic...
Nutrient loading and climate change affect coastal ecosystems worldwide. Unravelling the combined effects of these pressures on benthic macrofauna is essential for understanding future functioning ecosystems, as it an important component linking pelagic realms. In this study, we extended existing model coupled with a physical-biogeochemical Baltic Sea to study changing nutrient loads biomass metabolism historically in scenarios future. Based statistical comparison large validation dataset...
The responses of food webs to simultaneous changes in several environmental drivers are still poorly understood. As a contribution filling this knowledge gap, we investigated the major pathways through which two interlinked drivers, eutrophication and climate, affect biomass community composition fish benthic macrofauna. For aim, conducted systematic sensitivity analysis using models simulating dynamics pelagic Baltic Sea. We varied forcing representing primary productivity, oxygen...
Abstract Aquatic ecosystem services are important for human wellbeing, but they much less studied than terrestrial services. The objectives of this study to broaden, itemize and exemplify the human‐nature interactions in modeling future provision aquatic We include shared socioeconomic representative concentration pathways, used extensively climate research, as drivers change development Baltic Sea. Then we use biogeochemical models demonstrate exemplary supporting, provisioning cultural two...
Coastal seas are highly productive systems, providing an array of ecosystem services to humankind, such as processing nutrient effluents from land and climate regulation. However, coastal ecosystems threatened by human-induced pressures change eutrophication. In the zone, fluxes transformations nutrients carbon sustaining functions strongly regulated benthic biological chemical processes. Thus, understand quantify how respond environmental change, mechanistic modelling biogeochemical...
Abstract. Even though the effects of benthic fauna on aquatic biogeochemistry have been long recognized, few studies addressed combined animal bioturbation and metabolism ecosystem–level carbon nutrient dynamics. Here we merge a model (BMM) into physical–biogeochemical ecosystem (BALTSEM) to study long-term large-scale cycling in Baltic Sea. We include both direct faunal growth indirect its bioturbating activities biogeochemical fluxes transformations between organic inorganic forms (C),...
Predation is a major evolutionary driver of animal adaptation. However, understanding anti-predator evolution biased toward vertebrate taxa. Cephalopoda, class in the invertebrate phylum Mollusca, are known for their diverse strategies, characterised by behavioural flexibility. While ancestral cephalopods were protected hard outer shell, extant have greatly reduced reliance on physical defences. Instead, evolved highly developed senses to identify potential threats, cryptic skin patterns...
The increased maritime oil transportation raises the risk of marine spill accidents. An accident can cause severe harm to ecosystem. Adequate contingency planning for and efficient combating operations require ecological data knowledge be integrated in tools that facilitate decision making. A great deal decisions required during these is spatial nature, such as defining areas with high priority safeguarding. Also, real time making operations. All this calls on-sit accessible tools. authors...
Abstract Excessive nutrient inputs have caused eutrophication of coastal ecosystems worldwide, triggering extensive algal blooms, oxygen‐depletion, and collapse local fisheries. In the Baltic Sea, nitrogen (N) phosphorus (P) been significantly reduced since 1980s, but environmental state shows little to no signs recovery. However, a simulation with continued high loads from mid‐1980s demonstrates that while has not improved yet, it would be considerably worse today without load reductions...
