Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, Volume 24, Issue 3, March 2026.Abstract Ocean stratification, measured as mixed layer depth (MLD), is an important feature that influences many processes in the ocean; for example, by mediating the fluxes of momentum, heat and crucially key gases such as CO2 and oxygen from the atmosphere into the water column and vice versa. The conventional methods to measure stratification (e.g.,

Diurnal variations in the vertical distribution and abundance of zooplankton in the continental shelf waters off Cochin during April 1991 [PDF]
, 1996 The present study is based on zooplankton samples collected by vertical hauls from 0-30, 30-60 and 60-90 m depths from a 100 m depth station in the continental shelf (09° 44' N, 75° 42*8) off Cochin for two days at three hourly interval.

Extreme Mitogenomic Variation in Natural Populations of Chaetognaths [PDF]
Genome Biology and Evolution, 2017 The extent of within-species genetic variation across the diversity of animal life is an underexplored problem in ecology and evolution. Although neutral genetic variation should scale positively with population size, mitochondrial diversity levels are believed to show little variation across animal species.

Metabarcoding and biomass quantification reveal seasonal parasite associations in copepods
Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract Parasites are important members of ecosystems, and recent metabarcoding efforts have revealed an abundance of microbial eukaryotic parasites in copepods. However, a putative linkage to host community biomass and composition has not been addressed. We performed zooplankton tows monthly for 2 yr at five stations in the Oslofjord, Norway.

The Chaetognaths of the water of the Peru region [PDF]
, 1964 ENGLISH: A study has been made of the distributions of the 28 species of Chaetognatha in the waters off Peru and southern Ecuador, based primarily on data from oceanographic surveys carried out between 1958 and 1961 by the Inter-American Tropical Tuna ...

Omnivory by the Small Cosmopolitan Hydromedusa Aglaura Hemistoma [PDF]
, 2005 We investigated the feeding of the small hydromedusa, Aglaura hemistoma (bell diameter \u3c 4 mm), to determine if it occupies a trophic position similar to that of large medusae.

Occurrence of small microplastics in the salp Salpa fusiformis in the Kuroshio region
Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract We investigated the occurrence pattern of Salpa fusiformis, broad‐spectrum filter‐feeding zooplankton that intercept small particles around the Kuroshio Current, off southern Japan and inferred in situ distribution of near‐surface small microplastics (plastic particles < 330 μm) based on their gut contents.

Studies on chaetognaths off Ubatuba region, Brazil: II. Feeding habits
Brazilian Journal of Oceanography, 1995 The diet of chaetognath species were studied by examining the gut contents of 9466 specimens collected off Ubatuba region, São Paulo State. The greatest proportion of chaetognaths (7119 individuals) showed their gut contents empty. Copepods, mollusc eggs,

Oceanographic heterogeneity facilitates gelatinous zooplankton niche space and diversity
Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 1, January 2026.Abstract Gelatinous zooplankton serve diverse ecological roles in shelf food webs—from grazers to predators. However, their spatial niches are poorly resolved, especially at detailed taxonomic levels, due to conventional techniques that are unable to measure distributions at fine spatial scales.
