Abstract. The European Regional Seas Ecosystem Model (ERSEM) is one of the most established ecosystem models for lower trophic levels marine food web in scientific literature. Since its original development early nineties it has evolved significantly from a coastal model North Sea to generic tool simulations shelf seas global ocean. current release contains all essential elements pelagic and benthic parts ecosystem, including microbial web, carbonate system, calcification. Its distribution...
The European Unions' Marine Strategy Framework Directive aims to limit anthropogenic influences in the marine environment. But ecosystems are characterized by high variability, and it is not trivial define its natural state. Here, we use physical environment as a basis for classification, determines conditions which organisms must operate survive thrive locally. We present delineation of North Sea into five distinct regimes, based on multidecadal stratification characteristics. Results 51...
Abstract Tett, P., Carreira, C., Mills, D. K., van Leeuwen, S., Foden, J., Bresnan, E., and Gowen, R. J. 2008. Use of a Phytoplankton Community Index to assess the health coastal waters. – ICES Journal Marine Science, 65: 1475–1482. Monitoring marine-ecosystem status requires indicators community structure function. As structural indicator, we propose (PCI) based on abundance “life-forms” such as “pelagic diatoms” or “medium-sized autotrophic dinoflagellates”. To calculate PCI, data showing...
Documenting the seasonal temperature cycle constitutes an essential step toward mitigating risks associated with extreme weather events in a future warmer world. The mid-Piacenzian Warm Period (mPWP), 3.3 to 3.0 million years ago, featured global temperatures approximately 3°C above preindustrial levels. It represents ideal period for directed paleoclimate reconstructions equivalent model projections 2100 under moderate Shared Socioeconomic Pathway SSP2-4.5. Here, clumped isotope analyses of...

Abstract The ocean’s methane emission to the atmosphere is dominated by continental shelves where cold seeps are globally common features. Seeps emit into hydrosphere, but temporal variations and controls of seep activity efficiency microbial filter in water column scarce. Here we address these knowledge gaps measuring whole inventories methanotrophic at a resolution 2 hours North Sea (Doggerbank) summer autumn. We found that bottom were 68% (summer) 11% (autumn) higher during low tide...
