Predator-guided sampling reveals biotic structure in the bathypelagic [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2016 We targeted a habitat used differentially by deep-diving, air-breathing predators to empirically sample their prey's distributions off southern California. Fine-scale measurements of the spatial variability of potential prey animals from the surface to 1 200 m were obtained using conventional fisheries echosounders aboard a surface ship ...

Oceanic adults, coastal juveniles: tracking the habitat use of whale sharks off the Pacific coast of Mexico [PDF]
, 2017 Eight whale sharks tagged with pop-up satellite archival tags off the Gulf of California, Mexico, were tracked for periods of 14–134 days. Five of these sharks were adults, with four females visually assessed to be pregnant.

Bathypelagic particle flux signatures from a suboxic eddy in the oligotrophic tropical North Atlantic: production, sedimentation and preservation [PDF]
, 2015 Particle fluxes at the Cape Verde Ocean Observatory (CVOO) in the eastern tropical North Atlantic for the period December 2009 until May 2011 are discussed based on bathypelagic sediment trap time-series data collected at 1290 and 3439 m water depth. The

Molecular Mechanisms of the Convergent Adaptation of Bathypelagic and Abyssopelagic Fishes
Genome Biology and Evolution, 2022 Abstract Harsh environments provide opportunities to study how different species adapt, at the molecular level, to similar environmental stressors. High hydrostatic pressure, low temperature, and absence of sunlight in the deep-sea environment are challenging conditions for gene expression, cell morphology and vision.

Protist Community Grazing on Prokaryotic Prey in Deep Ocean Water Masses.
PLoS ONE, 2015 Oceanic protist grazing at mesopelagic and bathypelagic depths, and their subsequent effects on trophic links between eukaryotes and prokaryotes, are not well constrained.

Biodiversity's big wet secret: the global distribution of marine biological records reveals chronic under-exploration of the deep pelagic ocean [PDF]
, 2010 Background: Understanding the distribution of marine biodiversity is a crucial first step towards the effective and sustainable management of marine ecosystems. Recent efforts to collate location records from marine surveys enable us to assemble a global
