Squids are important components of marine ecosystems because of their role as both predator and prey. Across the Tasman Sea, Gould's arrow squid (Nototodarus gouldi) is a commercially targeted ommastrephid squid that supports an economically important fishery.

Abundancia y biomasa de Chaetognatha (Aphragmophora) en la zona pelágica del Pacífico Colombiano
Dada la importancia de los quetognatos por su alto impacto depredador y su rol en la transferencia energética desde el fitoplancton hasta niveles tróficos superiores, por primera vez, se evaluó en el Océano Pacífico Colombiano (OPC) su biomasa seca ...

ABSTRACT Southern right whale (Eubalaena australis; SRW) populations are recovering from the impacts of commercial whaling, however, recovery has been spatially variable, with strong associations between reproduction and prey availability. The diet of SRWs has not been widely examined, and with SRW foraging shifting away from high‐latitude foraging ...

Direct eDNA metabarcoding is the most scalable method for large benthic monitoring programs, provided that sampling effort is increased to compensate for slightly lower per‐sample biodiversity recovery. ABSTRACT DNA metabarcoding offers prospects to assess benthic biodiversity in a more scalable and comprehensive way, but processing methods remain ...

Optimising Zooplankton DNA Metabarcoding: Methodological Considerations for Large‐Scale Monitoring
ABSTRACT DNA metabarcoding is becoming an increasingly common approach in ecological monitoring of marine and freshwater planktonic communities, yet methodological choices along the metabarcoding workflow and data post‐processing approaches remain highly inconsistent across studies, limiting the ability to track biodiversity trends, detect range shifts,

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