Linked from
The 72 pages that link to Marine food web, each with the reason it gives.
Ocean acidificationNarrower topic: Changes to sensitive species can alter prey availability and ripple through marine communities.
Coral reefNarrower topic: Reef species are linked through feeding relationships that extend beyond individual colonies.
SharkNarrower topic: Sharks occupy varied predator roles within these interconnected ecosystems.
PlanktonNarrower topic: Plankton form the base or an early link in many marine food webs.
ZooplanktonNarrower topic: Zooplankton connect microscopic producers and microbes to fish, seabirds, and marine mammals.
Pelagic zoneRelated: Pelagic food webs connect microscopic producers to large predators through successive feeding levels.
PhytoplanktonRelated: Phytoplankton provide food directly or indirectly for much of marine life.
Marine reptileRelated: Marine reptiles act as predators, grazers, and prey in ocean food webs.
Marine ecosystemRelated: It connects marine producers, consumers, and decomposers through energy transfer.
ChondrichthyesRelated: Chondrichthyans occupy varied positions, from plankton-feeding rays to predatory sharks.
SeabirdRelated: Fish, squid, and zooplankton in these food webs sustain many seabird populations.
PinnipedRelated: Pinnipeds are predators and prey within these interconnected systems.
MosasaurNarrower topic: Mosasaurs occupied high predator levels, so their extinction altered marine ecological structure.
Pelagic fishNarrower topic: Pelagic fish transfer energy from plankton and smaller fish to larger predators.
TunaRelated: Tuna are predators within ocean food webs, so changes in their abundance can affect prey and competitors.
Coastal upwellingRelated: Productive upwelling regions channel phytoplankton growth into larger populations of consumers.
Antarctic researchRelated: Antarctic ecological research traces how environmental change can propagate through ocean communities.
Marine biologyRelated: Biological research traces how energy and nutrients move through ocean communities.
Seabird conservationRelated: Seabirds depend on food-web productivity and can indicate changes in prey communities.
Humboldt CurrentNarrower topic: Upwelling fuels plankton at the base of food webs that support the region's fish and seabirds.
Climate change and fisheriesNarrower topic: Climate impacts on plankton and prey can propagate to commercially caught fish.
Food chainBroader topic: Marine chains connect plankton, fish, and large predators, often across vast distances.
Marine fisheriesNarrower topic: Harvesting species can alter predators, prey, and ecosystem structure.
AlgaeRelated: Algae and algal plankton form the base of many marine food webs.
Cretaceous–Paleogene boundaryRelated: The collapse of photosynthetic plankton disrupted marine food webs across the boundary.
Marine fishRelated: Fish act as predators, prey, and links transferring energy through ocean communities.
Prince Edward IslandsRelated: Productive surrounding waters support seabirds, seals, and other wildlife breeding on the islands.
AnchovyNarrower topic: Changes in anchovy abundance can affect many predators and prey.
CopepodRelated: Copepods transfer energy from microscopic producers to fish and other larger predators.
Deep divingRelated: Deep divers transfer energy between surface and deep-water feeding grounds.
Atlantic herringNarrower topic: Herring transfer energy from plankton to larger fish, seabirds, and marine mammals.
AukNarrower topic: Auks link small fish and plankton to larger marine predators through feeding.
Mesopelagic fishNarrower topic: Mesopelagic fish transfer energy between plankton, predators, and deeper waters.
Ciguatera fish poisoningNarrower topic: Ciguatoxins pass from toxin-producing algae through prey to larger reef fish.
Eicosapentaenoic acidNarrower topic: EPA passes through marine food webs from microscopic producers into fish and other seafood.
Fish mealRelated: Removing fish for meal can alter prey availability for predators and other consumers.
Jellyfish bloomNarrower topic: Blooms can redirect energy flows by consuming plankton and becoming food for predators.
Plesiosaur feedingNarrower topic: Plesiosaur diets depended on prey available within ancient marine food webs.
Skipjack tunaRelated: Skipjack is both a predator of smaller animals and prey for larger oceanic predators.
ViperfishNarrower topic: Viperfish prey on smaller animals and are themselves part of deep-sea feeding networks.
Freshwater food webCompared with: Marine webs share trophic principles but differ in habitat structure and dominant producers.
HaddockRelated: Haddock both consumes seabed animals and provides prey for larger predators.
NeustonNarrower topic: Neuston provide food for surface-feeding animals and consume organisms or particles from the water.
RhizariaRelated: Rhizarians consume microbes and become prey for larger organisms, linking several levels of ocean life.
SeagrassRelated: Seagrass supplies food and shelter that support interconnected coastal species.
African penguinNarrower topic: The penguin's prospects depend on interacting changes in fish populations, predators, and ocean conditions.
ClupeiformesRelated: Clupeiforms connect plankton production to seabirds, marine mammals, and predatory fishes.
HalobatesRelated: Halobates consumes small surface-dwelling prey and is itself eaten by ocean predators.
Arctic ternRelated: Changes in ocean prey can affect tern survival and chick growth.
HaptophyteNarrower topic: Haptophytes support marine consumers as photosynthetic plankton and, in some cases, prey.
