    Andrew S Brierley
    Pelagic Ecology Research Group, Gatty Marine Laboratory, University of St Andrews, Fife, Scotland, UK
    Curr Biol 17:R555-7. 2007
    ..Removal by fishing of large sharks has reduced predation-pressure on shark prey and, via a trophic cascade, caused clam populations to crash. This indirect response illustrates why fisheries should be managed in a whole-ecosystem context...
  3. ncbi Antarctic ecosystem: are deep krill ecological outliers or portents of a paradigm shift?
    Andrew S Brierley
    University of St Andrews, Fife KY16 8LB, Scotland, UK
    Curr Biol 18:R252-4. 2008
    ..Serendipitous observations of Antarctic krill feeding at abyssal depths may revolutionise our view of the ecology of this supposed surface-dwelling animal that is key to the function of the Southern Ocean ecosystem...

    Andrew S Brierley
    Pelagic Ecology Research Group, Gatty Marine Laboratory, University of St Andrews, Fife KY16 8LB, Scotland, UK
    Curr Biol 20:1758-62. 2010
    ..Decreasing oxygen availability in a warming world ocean may impact shoal structure: because structure affects catchability by predators and fishers, understanding the response will be necessary for ecological and commercial reasons...
  6. ncbi Ecology of southern ocean pack ice
    Andrew S Brierley
    Gatty Marine Laboratory, School of Biology, University of St Andrews, Fife, KY16 8LB, UK
    Adv Mar Biol 43:171-276. 2002
    ..Data from such platforms will enhance greatly our understanding of the globally important Southern Ocean sea-ice ecosystem...

    Andrew S Brierley
    British Antarctic Survey, High Cross, Madingley Road, Cambridge CB3 0ET, UK
    Science 295:1890-2. 2002
    ..Autosub-2 enabled us to make continuous high-resolution measurements of krill density under ice reaching 27 kilometers beyond the ice edge...
  8. ncbi Scaling laws of marine predator search behaviour
    David W Sims
    Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, The Laboratory, Citadel Hill, Plymouth PL1 2PB, UK
    Nature 451:1098-102. 2008
    ..This may explain why Lévy-like behaviour seems to be widespread among diverse organisms, from microbes to humans, as a 'rule' that evolved in response to patchy resource distributions...
