Method‐dependent differences in zooplankton abundance and size metrics: Microscopy vs. ZooScan
Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract Image‐based approaches such as ZooScan are increasingly used for high‐throughput zooplankton monitoring. However, quantitative evaluations of methodological differences relative to conventional microscopy remain limited. In this study, zooplankton abundance and size‐based metrics obtained from microscopy and ZooScan image analysis were ...

First Record of Bioluminescence in a Sipunculan Worm
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021 During a search for bioluminescent marine annelids around the island of Carrie Bow Cay, Belize, we discovered bioluminescence in the sipunculan worm Nephasoma pellucidum. The identification of N. pellucidum was verified by DNA barcoding of ∼650 bp of the

DeepZoo: A cost‐effective and modular sampler for ecological studies in the deep ocean
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Understanding the structure and dynamics of deep‐ocean communities requires effective sampling of pelagic organisms in near‐bottom waters. These dispersive organisms contribute to biodiversity, connectivity and ecosystem recovery. Yet, current sampling methods remain constrained by size, cost, and depth, leaving key questions unanswered in ...

New systematic results based on chaetal hard structures in Mesochaetopterus (Polychaeta)
Scientia Marina, 2006 Two kinds of chaetal hard structures have been analysed within the genus Mesochaetopterus (Chaetopteridae, Polychaeta): the specialised chaetae of the fourth segment of the anterior part of the body (i.e. the A4 segment) and the uncinal plates present on
