Option 1

 * Article title: Chemical oceanography
 * Article Evaluation: The section on chemical pollution should be expanded. It is mentioned that toxic elements from chemical pollution can have a detrimental effect on oceans, but the toxic elements are not expanded on.
 * Sources: Rieuwerts, J. (2017). The elements of environmental pollution. Routledge.
 * Zeng, X., Chen, X., & Zhuang, J. (2015). The positive relationship between ocean acidification and pollution. Marine Pollution Bulletin, 91(1), 14-21.

Option 2

 * Article title: Deep Sea Drilling Project
 * Article Evaluation: One major detail left out of this article concerns what sediment cores revealed of past oceanic conditions. More specifically, the sediment cores revealed information about water temperatures and biological productivity. This was revealed through the use of proxy measurements that used isotope ratios. Additionally, an image of the sediment cores may be helpful to include in the article.

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in sediment cores from lakes Shinji and Nakaumi, SW Japan: A proxy of recent fire events in the watershed. Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science, 226, 106269.

Option 3

 * Article title: Energy flow (ecology)
 * Article Evaluation: It might be helpful to add in the primary production section of the article that the oceanic net primary production makes up about 46% of the global net primary production. I don't believe there is enough emphasis on the oceans contribution to primary production and photosynthesis.
 * Sources: Thornton, D. C. O. (2012). Primary production in the ocean. Advances in Photosynthesis–Fundamental Aspects, edited by: Najafpour, MM, InTech, Rijeka, Croatia, 563-588.

Option 4

 * Article title: Oak forest
 * Article Evaluation: It might be helpful to include ecological communities present in oak forests and the climate/temperature conditions in which oak forests grow the most.
 * Sources: Abrams, M. D. (1992). Fire and the development of oak forests. BioScience, 42(5), 346-353.
 * Futuyma, D. J., & Wasserman, S. S. (1980). Resource concentration and herbivory in oak forests. Science, 210(4472), 920-922.

Option 5

 * Article title: Disease ecology
 * Article Evaluation: Examples of interactions of disease ecology would clarify and enforce the sub-categories under "Interactions in disease ecology".
 * Sources: Collinge, S. K., & Ray, C. (Eds.). (2006). Disease ecology: community structure and pathogen dynamics. Oxford University Press.
