Bathypelagic fauna as a main driver of carbon sequestration in the ocean [PDF]
Sequestration, in contrast to export, is a mechanism of the biological pump occurring when carbon cannot return to the atmosphere in at least 100 years, normally the carbon transported below 1000 m depth.

Recent global synthetic analyses have revealed that marine taxonomic inventories are far from complete, nowhere more so than in the deep-pelagic ocean. At over a billion km3, it is the largest biome on Earth, yet only a tiny fraction of the biogeographic

Zooplankton vertical stratification in the East-pacific and Indian sectors of the Southern Ocean
IntroductionIn the Southern Ocean, the large-scale distribution of zooplankton, including their abundance and community composition from the epipelagic to the upper bathypelagic layers, remains poorly understood.

The meso- and bathypelagic cephalopod fauna of the Gully submarine canyon
AbstractFour midwater-trawl surveys were conducted during the summers of 2007–2009 and the spring of 2010 to document the meso- and bathypelagic biodiversity of the Gully canyon. These surveys collected 3871 cephalopods of at least 38 species in 22 families.

Despite comprising the largest biome on Earth, the bathypelagic zone inhabitants represent a “black hole” in the understanding of deep-oceanic functioning due to physical and monetary limitations.

Members of the fish family Platytroctidae are circumglobal and primarily inhabit bathypelagic depths (i.e. water columns depths below 1000 m). Due to the lack of specimens this taxon has received little focused attention, despite recent evidence ...

The Bathypelagic Mysid Gnathophausia (Crustacea) and Its Distribution in the Eastern Pacific Ocean [PDF]
A need has long existed for an improved collecting device for capturing the larger and more actively swimming bathypelagic animals of die sea. The Isaacs-Kidd Midwarer Trawl was developed at the University of California's Scripps Institution of ...

The classical paradigm of the vertical ecology of the pelagic ocean is that the bathypelagic fauna do not vertically migrate on a diel basis, unlike most of the mesopelagic fauna.

Bathypelagic marine snow: Deep-sea algal and detrital community
Using the research submersible ALVIN, we have observed and collected marine• snow (fragile macroscopic aggregates), in two basins off Southern California.

The study site located in the Mediterranean Sea was visited eight times in 2005 and 2006 to collect samples from the epipelagic (5 m), mesopelagic (200 m, 600 m), and bathypelagic (1,000 m, 2,000 m) zones. Randomly amplified polymorphic DNA PCR (RAPD-PCR)
