Nature, 1913 MANY specimens of a small amphipod crustacean, Euthemisto compressa, Goes, have been forwarded to me by Mr. T. H. Nelson, of Redcar. On May 23 and 24 these were washed ashore in incredible numbers on the coast of Yorkshire, where they lay from Saltburn to Teesmouth—a distance of ten miles in drifts several inches deep.

Deep Sea Research Part I: Oceanographic Research Papers, 2019 The gut microbiota is contributable to the adaptation and health of deep-sea organisms and has been revealed to be affected by many factors, especially the host species and diet. Here, we employed high-throughput sequencing of 16S rDNA to compare the gut

Species identification and connectivity of marine amphipods in Canada’s three oceans
PLoS ONE, 2018 Monitoring the distribution of marine biodiversity is a crucial step to better assess the impacts of global changes. Arctic marine fauna is dominated by amphipods in terms of abundance and biomass.

Subterranean environments contribute to three‐quarters of classified ecosystem services
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Beneath the Earth's surface lies a network of interconnected caves, voids, and systems of fissures forming in rocks of sedimentary, igneous, or metamorphic origin. Although largely inaccessible to humans, this hidden realm supports and regulates services critical to ecological health and human well‐being.

First Glimpse at the Diverse Aquaporins of Amphipod Crustaceans
Cells, 2021 The importance of aquaporins (AQPs) in the transport of water and solutes through cell membranes is well recognized despite being relatively new. To date, despite their abundance, diversity, and presence in disparate environments, amphipods have only ...

Nature, 1893 ONCE last winter on entering the laboratory here after it had been shut up for a few days, we found the floor, tables, shelves, window-ledges, and even dishes on the highest shelves, covered with great numbers of dead amphipods. These were found to be Orchestia gammarellus (the shore-hopper).

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract The difficulty of sampling zooplankton communities in situ has driven advancements in autonomous, remote sensing technology. The goal of this paper was to perform a gear comparison study testing the performance of one such piece of technology—a glider‐mounted four‐frequency echosounder—against traditional shipboard methods of measuring ...

Swarming of Hyperiid Amphipods [PDF]
Nature, 1967 FOLLOWING a period of moderately strong westerly wind, on June 26, 1966, the beaches of Robin Hood's Bay, Filey, and Sandsend, Yorkshire (extending for about 40 km of coastline), were turned white by a covering of vast numbers of hyperiid amphipods.
