TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an analysis of 187 time series from primary production to commercial fisheries and nearshore intertidal to offshore oceanic domains demonstrating abrupt changes across trophic levels, with many responses persisting up to at least 5 years after the onset of the marine heatwave.
Timelines and mechanisms of wildlife population recovery following the Exxon Valdez Oil Spill

TL;DR: For example, the authors found that chronic oil spill effects persisted for at least two decades and were a larger influence on population dynamics over the long term than acute effects of the spill.

Distributional shifts among seabird communities of the Northern Bering and Chukchi seas in response to ocean warming during 2017–2019
TL;DR: In the northern Bering Sea and eastern Chukchi sea, 2017-2019 were record-breaking years for warm ocean temperatures and lack of sea ice as discussed by the authors, and there was evidence of long-term changes in abundance of seabirds.

Patterns of distribution, abundance, and change over time in a subarctic marine bird community
TL;DR: This paper found that an environmental gradient related to water depth and distance from shore was the dominant factor spatially structuring the marine bird community in Prince William Sound (PWS), Alaska, and that responses of marine birds to this onshore-offshore environmental gradient were related to dietary specialization.

Representation of the Pacific Arctic seabird community within the Distributed Biological Observatory array, 2007–2015
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined whether the DBO array provides a reasonable method by which to describe and monitor the distribution and community composition of seabirds in the eastern Pacific Arctic, and if it captures areas of high seabird abundance.
