Disaster avoided: current state of the Baltic Sea without human intervention to reduce nutrient loads Open
Excessive nutrient inputs have caused eutrophication of coastal ecosystems worldwide, triggering extensive algal blooms, oxygen‐depletion, and collapse of local fisheries. In the Baltic Sea, inputs of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) have b…

High nitrate and sulfate leaching in response to wetter winters in temperate beech forests Open
Climate models project moderate to large increases in air temperature for most temperate ecosystems with an overall increase in winter precipitation and a shift from snow towards rain. We investigated the effects of increased winter rainfa…

The evolution of predator avoidance in cephalopods: A case of brain over brawn? Open
Predation is a major evolutionary driver of animal adaptation. However, understanding of anti-predator evolution is biased toward vertebrate taxa. Cephalopoda, a class in the invertebrate phylum Mollusca, are known for their diverse anti-p…

Modelling the effects of benthic fauna on carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus dynamics in the Baltic Sea Open
Even though the effects of benthic fauna on aquatic biogeochemistry have been long recognized, few studies have addressed the combined effects of animal bioturbation and metabolism on ecosystem–level carbon and nutrient dynamics. Here we m…

Reference state, structure, regime shifts, and regulatory drivers in a coastal sea over the last century: The Central Baltic Sea case Open
The occurrence of regime shifts in marine ecosystems has important implications for environmental legislation that requires setting reference levels and targets of quantitative restoration outcomes. The Baltic Sea ecosystem has undergone l…

New records of the Paleotropical migrant <i>Hemianax ephippiger</i> in the Caribbean and a review of its status in the Neotropics Open
Tropical America is currently experiencing the establishment of a new apex insect predator, the Paleotropical dragonfly Hemianax ephippiger (Odonata: Aeshnidae). H. ephippiger is migratory and is suggested to have colonised the eastern Neo…

Understanding Environmental Changes in Temperate Coastal Seas: Linking Models of Benthic Fauna to Carbon and Nutrient Fluxes Open
Coastal seas are highly productive systems, providing an array of ecosystem services to humankind, such as processing of nutrient effluents from land and climate regulation. However, coastal ecosystems are threatened by human-induced press…

The meagre future of benthic fauna in a coastal sea—Benthic responses to recovery from eutrophication in a changing climate Open
Nutrient loading and climate change affect coastal ecosystems worldwide. Unravelling the combined effects of these pressures on benthic macrofauna is essential for understanding the future functioning of coastal ecosystems, as it is an imp…

Quantifying biomass and carbon processing of benthic fauna in a coastal sea : past, present and future Open
Benthic macrofauna is an important component linking pelagic and benthic ecosystems, especially in productive coastal seas. Through their metabolism and behaviour, benthic animals affect biogeochemical fluxes between the sediment and water…

Provision of aquatic ecosystem services as a consequence of societal changes: The case of the Baltic Sea Open
Aquatic ecosystem services are important for human wellbeing, but they are much less studied than terrestrial ecosystem services. The objectives of this study are to broaden, itemize and exemplify the human‐nature interactions in modeling …

Combined Effects of Environmental Drivers on Marine Trophic Groups – A Systematic Model Comparison Open
The responses of food webs to simultaneous changes in several environmental drivers are still poorly understood. As a contribution to filling this knowledge gap, we investigated the major pathways through which two interlinked environmenta…
