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.

BATHYPELAGIC Cruise, RV Sarmiento de Gamboa
, 2018 BATHYPELAGIC Cruise (29SG20180524) carried out on the Research Vessel Sarmiento de Gamboa in 2018The main objective of the Project is to estimate the active flux towards bathypelagic waters (carbon sequestration) with a global perspective.

Diversity and distribution of marine heterotrophic bacteria from a large culture collection
BMC Microbiology, 2020 Background Isolation of marine microorganisms is fundamental to gather information about their physiology, ecology and genomic content. To date, most of the bacterial isolation efforts have focused on the photic ocean leaving the deep ocean less explored.

Vertical and longitudinal gradients in HNA-LNA cell abundances and cytometric characteristics in the Mediterranean Sea [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2011 Heterotrophic bacterioplankton abundance and production were investigated with depth (down to bathypelagic layers) and with longitude (from 4.9° E to 32.7° E) along a cruise track across the Mediterranean Sea in early summer 2008.

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Fewer than 50 of the over 30,000 extant species of fishes have developed anatomical specializations facilitating endothermy in specific body regions. The plankton‐feeding basking shark (Cetorhinus maximus), traditionally classified as an ectotherm, was recently shown to have regionally endothermic traits such as centralized red muscle (RM ...

Carbon remineralization by small mesopelagic and bathypelagic Stomiiforms in the Northeast Atlantic Ocean [PDF]
, 2022 The organic carbon resulting from photosynthesis in the upper ocean is transferred downward through the passive sinking of organic particles, physical mixing of particulate and dissolved organic carbon as well as active flux transported by zooplanktonic ...

Diving deep into the origins of refractory dissolved amino acids in the ocean
Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 6, June 2026.Abstract Amino acids are key constituents of marine peptides and proteins and are generally considered biologically labile or semi‐labile, yet their widespread occurrence throughout the ocean suggests bioresistance over extended timescales. To investigate this paradox, we conducted two parallel shipboard incubation experiments to track microbial ...

Large deep-sea zooplankton biomass mirrors primary production in the global ocean
Nature Communications, 2020 Zooplankton biomass in the dark ocean is thought to be low and weakly coupled to epipelagic primary production, but recent evidence suggests otherwise.

Acoustic evidence for topographic blocking on a steep submarine canyon wall
Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 6, June 2026.Abstract Diel vertical migration (DVM) is the largest mass‐movement of animals on Earth, with profound ecological and biogeochemical consequences. DVM has mostly been studied in the open ocean; however, at steep slopes, pelagic animals including vertical migrators must contend with the seafloor, emphasizing the importance of understanding DVM in these ...
