Krill space: a comparative assessment of mesoscale structuring in polar and temperate marine ecosystems

Abstract

Santora, J. A., Sydeman, W. J., Schroeder, I. D., Reiss, C. S., Wells, B. K., Field, J. C, Cossio, A. M., and Loeb, V. J. 2012. Krill space: a comparative assessment of mesoscale structuring in polar and temperate marine ecosystems. – ICES Journal of Marine Science, 69: . The spatial organization, mesoscale variability, and habitat associations of krill within portions of the Antarctic Peninsula and California Current marine ecosystems are compared. Using a decade of acoustic observations and remotely sensed oceanography (2000–2009), the hypothesis that mesoscale spatial organization of krill in both systems closely relates to geospatial variability of the shelf break and is non-linearly related to geostrophic flow and positively related to chlorophyll a (Chl a) is tested. Directional-dependence analysis to measure spatial variability of krill is used along with spatially explicit generalized additive models to quantify and compare the spatial relationships among krill and habitat characteristics in both systems. The results suggest the following aspects of krill spatial organization: (i) areas of dense aggregation, i.e. hot spots, are present in both systems and are orientated in the direction of the shelf break, (ii) moderate levels of eddy kinetic energy seem to concentrate krill in favourable habitats and lessen the likelihood of advection away from the system, and (iii) variable responses to surface Chl a concentration suggest that real-time Chl a values may not be usefu…

  • Areas with abrupt topographic change and moderate EKE values within the approximate depth range represented in the final model (1537 ± 611 m) could provide a physical environment conducive to zooplankton concentration, which in turn provides forage for gelatinous zooplankton.

    “Areas with abrupt topographic change and moderate EKE values within the approximate depth range represented in the final model (1537 ± 611 m; mean ± sd) could provide a physical environment conducive to zooplankton concentration (Santora et al., 2012; Genin, 2004; Graham et al., 2001) which in turn provides forage for these gelatinous zooplankton.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
