Feeding and foraging ecology of Trindade petrels Pterodroma arminjoniana during the breeding period in the South Atlantic Ocean [PDF]
Seabirds breeding in tropical environments experience high energetic demands, when foraging in an oligotrophic environment. The globally threatened Trindade petrel Pterodroma arminjoniana has its largest colony in Trindade Island (20°30′S–29°19′W) inside

Thermal effects on cephalopod energy metabolism - A case study for Sepia officinalis [PDF]
Cephalopods are the largest, most active invertebrates and there is considerable evidence for their convergent evolution with fishes. However, most active cephalopods display standard and active metabolic rates that are several-fold higher than ...

Considering the cephalopod [PDF]
Octopuses, squids, and cuttlefishes all have potential as lab animals. As models emerge, what goes in to keeping them happy and healthy in the lab?

Cephalopod learning and memory
Cephalopod molluscs are renowned for their unique central nervous system - a donut-shaped brain organised around the oesophagus. This brain supports sophisticated learning and memory abilities. Between the 1950s and 1980s, these cognitive abilities were extensively studied in octopus (Figure 1A) - a now leading model for the study of memory and its ...

Vessel sound causes hearing loss for hummingbird bobtail squid (Euprymna berryi)
Anthropogenic activity and its associated sounds have been shown to incur adverse effects on the behaviour and physiology of a wide range of aquatic taxa, from marine mammals to fishes.

The origin and initial rise of pelagic cephalopods in the Ordovician.
BackgroundDuring the Ordovician the global diversity increased dramatically at family, genus and species levels. Partially the diversification is explained by an increased nutrient, and phytoplankton availability in the open water.

Global proliferation of cephalopods [PDF]
Human activities have substantially changed the world's oceans in recent decades, altering marine food webs, habitats and biogeochemical processes [1]. Cephalopods (squid, cuttlefish and octopuses) have a unique set of biological traits, including rapid growth, short lifespans and strong life-history plasticity, allowing them to adapt quickly to ...
