Shifts in deep-sea community structure linked to climate and food supply
A major change in the community structure of the dominant epibenthic megafauna was observed at 4100 meters depth in the northeast Pacific and was synchronous to a major El Niño/La Niña event that occurred between 1997 and 1999. Photographic abundance estimates of epibenthic megafauna from 1989 to 2002 show that two taxa decreased in abundance after 1998 by 2 to 3 orders of magnitude, whereas several other species increased in abundance by 1 to 2 orders of magnitude. These faunal changes are correlated to climate fluctuations dominated by El Niño/La Niña. Megafauna even in remote marine areas appear to be affected by contemporary climatic fluctuations. Such faunal changes highlight the importance of an adequate temporal perspective in describing biodiversity, ecology, and anthropogenic impacts in deep-sea communities

Conductor's Score: In Two Volumes
This is the original conductor's score for the opera "Daisy" including the vocal parts as well as instrumental lines for flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon, horns, trumpets, bass trombone, timpani and percussion, harp and piano, violin, viola, cello, and string bass. The introductory pages at the start of the score include acknowledgements and synopsis by Professor Kenneth L. Ballenger, the cast of characters and scene list (5 scenes). There is an index to the scenes for each act following their title pages (before page 1 for Act I and before page 262 for Act II)
Climate variation, carbon flux, and bioturbation in the abyssal North Pacific
We hypothesized that seasonal and interannual climate-mediated changes in particulate organic carbon (POC)
flux would affect bioturbation and ultimately the sequestration of organic carbon in the deep sea. An 18-yr timeseries
photographic record from 4100-m depth in the northeast Pacific Ocean showed increased abundance of
Echinocrepis rostrata, a common epibenthic echinoid and bioturbator, since the late 1990s. Abundance, size, and
speed data were used to estimate bioturbation potential to track long-term changes in the volume of sediment
disturbed by E. rostrata. There was no secular increase in E. rostrata bioturbation over 18 yr despite increased
population size, although periodic variations in bioturbation were significantly correlated with POC flux.
Expected changes in POC flux and bioturbation rates due to climate variation could lead to altered rates of
carbon sequestration in deep-sea sediments, affecting the global carbon cycle
