Spatial Habitat Shifts of Oceanic Cephalopod ( Ommastrephes bartramii ) in Oscillating Climate
Short- and long-term climate oscillations impact seascapes, and hence, marine ecosystem structure and dynamics. Here, we explored the spatio-temporal patterns of potential squid habitat in the western and central North Pacific across inter-decadal climate transitions, coincident with periods of pers...

Short- and long-term climate oscillations impact seascapes, and hence, marine ecosystem structure and dynamics.

Potential habitat distributions of Ommastrephes bartramii were derived from the outputs of multi-ensemble species distribution models, developed using the most influential environmental factors to squid distribution and occurrence data.
