Ecosystem engineering creates a direct nutritional link between 600-m deep cold-water coral mounds and surface productivity
Soetaert, Karline; Mohn, Christian; Rengstorf, Anna; Grehan, Anthony; van Oevelen, Dick (Springer Nature, 2016-10-11)Cold-water corals (CWCs) form large mounds on the seafloor that are hotspots of biodiversity in the deep sea, but it remains enigmatic how CWCs can thrive in this food-limited environment. Here, we infer from model simulations ... -
Hermes: promoting an ecosystem approach to the sustainable use and governance of deep-water resources
Grehan, Anthony; van den Hove, Sybille; Armstrong, Claire; Long, Ronan; van Rensburg, Thomas; Gunn, Vikki; Mikkelsen, Eirik; De Mol, Ben; Hain, Stefan (The Oceanography Society, 2009-03-01)HERMES is much more than a scientific research project. The overall goal of the project is to improve the scientific basis for the sustainable use of Europe's offshore resources with due regard for the need to conserve ... -
High-resolution habitat suitability modelling of vulnerable marine ecosystems in the deep sea
Rengstorf, Anna Maria (2013-02-15)Knowledge of the spatial distribution of species and habitats is crucial for effective management of marine resources. Data to support informed decision-making in the deep sea are often sparse or absent, as offshore sampling ... -
Moving from ecosystem-based policy objectives to operational implementation of ecosystem-based management measures
Cormier, Roland; Kelble, Christopher R.; Anderson, M. Robin; Allen, J. Icarus; Grehan, Anthony; Gregersen, Ólavur (Oxford University Press (OUP), 2016-10-25)The aim of ecosystem-based management (EBM) is to maintain an ecosystem in a healthy, productive and resilient condition through the implementation of policies and management measures. Although cross-sectoral planning may ... -
