L&O Special Issue on Life in turbulent waters: exploring unsteady biota-flow interactions across scales

February 9, 2022 / Announcements, Publications / ,

Announcing the October 2023 L&O Special Issue Turbulent water motions can influence many aquatic organisms, by regulating biotic processes such as locomotion, grazing, heat transfer, nutrient uptake, and biogeochemical reactions. Conversely, the presence of organisms, such as mussel beds or macrophytes, can generate or enhance small-scale turbulence which then feeds back into larger-scale ecosystem responses. Despite rapid progress in this field over the past decades, there remain many fundamental and …

A Virtual Issue on the Remote Sensing of Oceans, Estuaries, and Lakes

October 21, 2019 / Publications, Virtual Issue / , , ,

By Paul F. Kemp Oceans, Lakes, and Inland Seas: A Virtual Issue on the Remote Sensing of Oceans, Estuaries, and Lakes Since 1978, more than 85 articles have appeared in the Limnology and Oceanography family of journals describing the development and use of remote sensing tools to study processes in freshwater and marine systems. Remote sensing can be broadly defined as the use of drones, autonomous vehicles, moored instruments, sensors, satellites and …

Virtual Issue: Stable Isotopes in Limnology and Oceanography

October 21, 2019 / Publications, Virtual Issue /

By Marguerite A. Xenopoulos Stable isotope analysis is a common and extremely useful tool for studying aquatic ecosystems from single cells to whole ecosystems. Over 600 papers using stable isotope studies have been published in L&O over the past 60 years. These papers include studies using stable isotopes as tracers of biological, geochemical and ecosystem processes, food web analyses, and work tracking animal movement. In more recent years, rapid progress in …

The Hawaii Ocean Time-series: 30th Anniversary Collection

March 17, 2020 / Publications, Virtual Issue /

By Marguerite Xenopoulos Thirty years ago, on October 30th, 1988, the first scientific cruise sailed to a deep-water subtropical station as part of the Hawaii Ocean Time-series (HOT) program. On-going cruises to Station ALOHA (A Long-Term Oligotrophic Habitat Assessment; 22° 45’N, 158° 00’W) have been made since approximately at monthly intervals where repeated measurements of ocean physics, biogeochemistry and plankton ecology have occurred. This virtual issue contains a compilation of …
