Pranovi, Fabio Libralato, Simone Coll, Marta Christensen, Villy Solidoro, Cosimo Fulton, Elizabeth A. 13 pages, 4 figures, 1 table, 4 boxes, supplemental information http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.tree.2015.08.011 Whether there are common and emergent patterns from marine ecosystems remains an important question because marine ecosystems provide billions of dollars of ecosystem services to the global community, but face many perturbations with significant consequences. Here, we develop cumulative trophic patterns for marine ecosystems, featuring sigmoidal cumulative biomass (cumB)–trophic level (TL) and ‘hockey-stick’ production (cumP)–cumB curves. The patterns have a trophodynamic theoretical basis and capitalize on emergent, funda- mental, and invariant features of marine ecosystems. These patterns have strong global support, being observed in over 120 marine ecosystems. Parameters from these curves elucidate the direction and magnitude of marine ecosystem perturbation or recovery; if biomass and productivity can be monitored effectively over time, such relations may prove to be broadly useful. Curve parameters are proposed as possible ecosystem thresholds, perhaps to better manage the marine ecosystems of the world This work was conceptualized and conducted as part of visiting scientist exchanges between F.P. and J.L. via support from the University of Ca’Foscari and NOAA, a visiting scientist exchange via a Frohlich Fellowship (J.L.) and support from CSIRO and NOAA between J.L. and E.F., NOAA support for J.L. to visit S.L. and C.S., CAMEO support for MENU2, and in conjunction with numerous ICES working groups in which several of the authors participated Peer Reviewed 2015-11 2015-12-15T13:40:59Z artículo http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501 doi: 10.1016/j.tree.2015.08.011 issn: 0169-5347 e-issn: 1872-8383 Trends in Ecology and Evolution 30(11): 649–661 (2015) http://hdl.handle.net/10261/126928 10.1016/j.tree.2015.08.011 http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.tree.2015.08.011 Sí none Cell Press
