Cell proliferation in cubozoan jellyfish Tripedalia cystophora and Alatina moseri. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Cubozoans (box jellyfish) undergo remarkable body reorganization throughout their life cycle when, first, they metamorphose from swimming larvae to sessile polyps, and second, through the metamorphosis from sessile polyps to free swimming medusae. In the

Histological Investigation of the Female Gonads of Chiropsalmus quadrumanus (Cubozoa: Cnidaria) Suggests Iteroparous Reproduction

Diversity, 2023
The box jellyfish Chiropsalmus quadrumanus (Chirodropida: Cubozoa: Cnidaria) is common in warm waters. Although it is assumed that external fertilization is a characteristic of Chirodropida, the life history of C.

Genetic Detection and a Method to Study the Ecology of Deadly Cubozoan Jellyfish

Diversity, 2022
Cubozoan jellyfish pose a risk of envenomation to humans and a threat to many businesses, yet crucial gaps exist in determining threats to stakeholders and understanding their ecology.

Pulsing corals: A story of scale and mixing [PDF]

, 2017
Effective methods of fluid transport vary across scale. A commonly used dimensionless number for quantifying the effective scale of fluid transport is the Reynolds number, Re, which gives the ratio of inertial to viscous forces.

Not all jellyfish are equal: isotopic evidence for inter- and intraspecific variation in jellyfish trophic ecology [PDF]

, 2015
Jellyfish are highly topical within studies of pelagic food-webs and there is a growing realisation that their role is more complex than once thought.

Evidence of Cnidarians sensitivity to sound after exposure to low frequency underwater sources [PDF]

, 2016
Jellyfishes represent a group of species that play an important role in oceans, particularly as a food source for different taxa and as a predator of fish larvae and planktonic prey.

Reynolds number limits for jet propulsion: A numerical study of simplified jellyfish [PDF]

, 2010
The Scallop Theorem states that reciprocal methods of locomotion, such as jet propulsion or paddling, will not work in Stokes flow (Reynolds number = 0).

Predator-Induced Vertical Behavior of a Ctenophore [PDF]

, 2012
Although many studies have focused on Mnemiopsis leidyi predation, little is known about the role of this ctenophore as prey when abundant in native and invaded pelagic systems. We examined the response of the ctenophore M.

Star formation in shocked cluster spirals and their tails [PDF]

, 2014
Recent observations of ram pressure stripped spiral galaxies in clusters revealed details of the stripping process, i.e., the truncation of all interstellar medium (ISM) phases and of star formation (SF) in the disk, and multiphase star-forming tails ...

Localization of Multiple Jellyfish Toxins Shows Specificity for Functionally Distinct Polyps and Nematocyst Types in a Colonial Hydrozoan

Toxins, 2023
Hydractinia symbiolongicarpus is a colonial hydrozoan that displays a division of labor through morphologically distinct and functionally specialized polyp types.
