4 Open-Oceanic Food Web
5 Open-Oceanic Food Web Phytoplankton Pelagophyte ( Zooplankton Copepod (wikipedia.org) Prymnesiophyte ( g Diatom (astrographics.com) Cyanobacteria (hermes.mbl.edu) Euphausiid (wikipedia.org) Amphipod (wikipedia.org) Zooplankton tow (ad.brim.ac.cn )
6 Net Export Production N 2 fixation NO 3 - PON (Sediment Traps) Sigman&Hain_NatureEdu
7 Anthropogenic Forcing Influence of humankind on oceanic processes Examples - Fossil fuel burning (electricity production) -Over-fishing (human nutrition) - Iron enrichment (CO 2 sequestration) Anthropogenic impacts can result in climate change
8 Ocean Climate Variability El Niño - Southern Oscillation (ENSO): = 2-7 years (Rasmussen & Carpenter, 1982)
9 Ocean Climate Variability Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO): = ~15-25 years (Minobe, 1999) Warm Phase Cool Phase
10 Operational definition Regime Shifts For practical purposes, it is probably useful to accept as a regime shift, changes in marine system function that are relatively abrupt, persistent, occurring at large spatial scales, observed at different trophic levels and related to climate forcing. de Young et al. (2004)
11 Historical context Regime Shifts.there are probably bl a great number of possible regimes and abrupt discontinuities connecting them, flip-flops from one regime to another; multifarious regimes involving biology or climate, or oceanography, or migrations, temperature, or weather, or combinations of these, etc. Sardines, for example, are either here or not here. Isaacs (1976)
12 Regime Shifts Correlated with the PDO during Chavez et al. (2003)
13 Regime Shifts Characteristics - The time-scale for change between states is much shorter than the time within alternate states - The differences should include more than a few components of the ecosystem and cover more than one trophic level and more than a single species - The forcing mechanism for the shift is external to the biological ecosystem and is typically y triggered by changes in the physical environment de Young et al. (2004)
14 Regime Shifts Causal mechanisms - Change in food web structure caused by temporal variations in the availability of growth-limiting nutrients (bottom-up control) Increasing P new Steady-state food web interactions at a given system nutrient content (N T ) Thingstad (1998)
15 Regime Shifts Causal mechanisms - Removal of the keystone species (top-down control) (e.g., over-fishing) Control Removal of Keystone Species Thingstad (1998)
16 Regime Shifts Questions and uncertainties - It is not clear if regime shifts represent geographical shifts or local changes in food web structure (or a combination of both) - There is no convincing evidence that changes in ocean climate (ENSO or PDO) induce bi-stable modes in marine ecosystems - It is not clear if regime shifts have an oscillatory behavior or whether they represent a punctuated change in the equilibrium of an ocean system Steele (2004) & de Young et al. (2004)
17 Regime Shifts Questions and uncertainties - Regime shifts can be difficult to detect & characterize statistically de Young et al. (2004)
18 Evidence for a Recent Regime Shift in the Pacific Ocean Peterson & Schwing (2003)
19 Question: Is there evidence for a regime shift in the subtropical Pacific during the late 1990 s?
