Unveiling pelagic-benthic coupling associated with the biological carbon pump in the Fram Strait (Arctic Ocean) [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsSettling aggregates transport organic matter from the ocean surface to the deep sea and seafloor. Though plankton communities impact carbon export, how specific organisms and their interactions affect export efficiency is unknown.

Rotiferan Hox genes give new insights into the evolution of metazoan bodyplans [PDF]
, 2017 The phylum Rotifera consists of minuscule, nonsegmented animals with a unique body plan and an unresolved phylogenetic position. The presence of pharyngeal articulated jaws supports an inclusion in Gnathifera nested in the Spiralia.
