Net and Acoustic Examination of Bathypelagic Nekton on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Spatial distributions of organisms play a key role in facilitating trophic interactions, which influence pelagic ecosystem structure and function. This study combines discrete net trawl sampling with continuous acoustic measurements to investigate the ...

Environmental DNA Metabarcoding Reveals Distinct Spatial and Seasonal Patterns in Offshore Fish Communities in Eastern and Western Taiwan

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 5, Issue 6, December 2025.
ABSTRACT The spatiotemporal distribution of marine organisms in Taiwan is influenced by the convergence of three major water masses and the East Asian monsoon system. However, most studies on marine fish communities have focused on larval stages due to sampling limitations.

Genomic signatures of fifth autotrophic carbon assimilation pathway in bathypelagic Crenarchaeota [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, 2010
Summary Marine Crenarchaeota , ubiquitous and abundant organisms in the oceans worldwide, remain metabolically uncharacterized, largely due to their low cultivability. Identification of candidate genes for bicarbonate fixation pathway in the Cenarchaeum ...

Using stable isotopes to describe the trophic structure of gelatinous zooplankton across the deep pelagic

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 70, Issue 12, Page 3634-3649, December 2025.
Abstract Although gelatinous zooplankton are key members of marine ecosystems and food webs, their trophic ecology is poorly described across the deep pelagic. We used stable carbon (bulk tissue) and nitrogen (bulk tissue and amino acid) isotope analysis to estimate the trophic positions (TPs) of abundant gelatinous zooplankton (chaetognaths ...

Deep ocean metagenomes provide insight into the metabolic architecture of bathypelagic microbial communities

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2021
Silvia Acinas et al. report the Malaspina Gene Database, a gene catalogue from deep ocean microbes and the Malaspina Deep Metagenome-Assembled Genomes (MAGs) which is made publicly available. The analysis of the metabolic pathways within these MAGs sheds

Near‐seabed sediment dynamics and fluxes on Chatham Rise, the effects of seabed disturbance, and implications for deep‐sea bottom trawling and seabed mining

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 59, Issue 5, Page 1460-1495, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Anthropogenic impacts are increasingly affecting deep‐sea environments, including seafloor sediment disturbances by bottom trawling and seafloor mining. Fieldwork in the ‘Resilience Of Benthic Ecosystems to Sedimentation’ (ROBES) project were conducted in 2018–2020 on the 400 m‐deep Chatham Rise crest, eastern Aotearoa New Zealand.

Lytic viral infection of bacterioplankton in deep waters of the western Pacific Ocean [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
As the most abundant biological entities in the ocean, viruses influence host mortality and nutrient recycling mainly through lytic infection. Yet, the ecological characteristics of virioplankton and viral impacts on host mortality and biogeochemical ...

Re‐make, re‐model: evolution and development of vertebrate cranial lateral lines

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 6, Page 2237-2256, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Lateral lines are placodally derived mechanosensory systems on the heads and trunks of many aquatic vertebrates. There is evidence of lateral lines in the earliest known vertebrate fossils, and they exist in organisms with widely different craniofacial morphologies – including the presence or absence of jaws, external or internal nostrils, and

Niche Differentiation of Aerobic and Anaerobic Ammonia Oxidizers in a High Latitude Deep Oxygen Minimum Zone

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
To elucidate the potential for nitrification and denitrification processes in a high latitude deep oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) we determined the abundance and community composition of the main microbial players in the aerobic and anaerobic (anammox ...
