The IceShark, an effective method for sampling plankton under sea ice

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Seasonal sea ice plays a crucial role in shaping coastal ecosystem dynamics throughout the circumpolar region. Of particular interest to oceanographers is the ice‐ocean interface which functions as a multidimensional habitat, supporting both sympagic algae and pelagic phytoplankton in the under‐ice surface waters.

The chaetognatha of the Eastropic Expedition, with notes as to their possible value as indicators of hydrographic conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 1959
ENGLISH: The purpose of this study was to investigate the possibility that certain species of Chaetognatha found in Eastern Tropical Pacific waters can serve as biological indicators of oceanographic features. "Indicator" organisms have been found useful

Effects of ocean acidification on invertebrate settlement at volcanic CO2 vents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We present the first study of the effects of ocean acidification on settlement of benthic invertebrates and microfauna. Artificial collectors were placed for 1 month along pH gradients at CO2 vents off Ischia (Tyrrhenian Sea, Italy).

Benthoplanidae, a new family of benthic ctenophores (Platyctenida), based on morphological and genetic data

open access: yesJournal of Systematics and Evolution, EarlyView.
The benthic ctenophore Benthoplana meteoris (adults left and bottom, planktonic juveniles to the top right), type species for the genus, which in turn is type for the newly erected family: Benthoplanidae (Ctenophora, Platyctenida). Abstract We present a phylogenetic analysis of benthic ctenophores of the order Platyctenida, sampling all but one genus ...

Species composition, seasonal abundance and population structure of chaetognaths in Admiralty Bay (Antarctic)

open access: yesPolish Polar Research, 2016
Although chaetognaths inhabiting polar ecosystems are relatively well known, there are few reports on their functioning in the Antarctic coastal plankton community. The presented results provide the first comprehensive description of population structure
