Canyon effects structure fin whale feeding aggregations at Southern Ocean feeding grounds
Abstract Large fin whale feeding aggregations at Southern Ocean feeding grounds are one of the most striking predator–prey phenomena in the post‐whaling era, representing a visible sign of recovering large whale populations. Yet, the mechanisms shaping their occurrence have not yet been studied. We investigate spatial patterns of fin whale distribution

Synthetic pelagic biomass size spectra of the tropical and subtropical Atlantic
Abstract Synthetic normalized biomass size spectra (NBSS) comprising non‐synoptically sampled phytoplankton, meso‐ and macrozooplankton, and micronekton including mesopelagic fishes were explored to analyze pelagic community structure in seven regions of the tropical and the subtropical Atlantic representative of different water bodies (NE Brazil shelf,

The Deep‐Sea Preyscapes of Mammalian Top Predators
Deep‐sea predator foraging is shaped by prey richness, accessibility, and density. Using eDNA and acoustics, we mapped fish and cephalopod communities across inshore‐offshore gradients around the Azores in foraging habitats of three co‐occurring deep‐diving toothed whales.

This study applies eDNA metabarcoding on conserved and hypervariable mitochondrial markers to assess species diversity in Caribbean marine fishes and population haplotype diversity in grunts. By standardizing biodiversity monitoring across scales, eDNA provides a unified understanding of the processes generating diversity patterns from populations to ...
