The planktonic food web in the Gulf of Naples based on the analysis of carbon and nitrogen stable isotope ratios

Marine Ecology, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Plankton play a key role in marine food webs by producing and transferring organic matter and energy to higher trophic levels. To define the trophic structure and interactions within the planktonic communities in the Gulf of Naples, we determined carbon and nitrogen stable isotope ratios in particulate organic matter (POM, <20 μm ...

A model for the description of feeding regulation by mesozooplankton under different conditions of temperature and prey nutritional status [PDF]

, 2014
Ecosystem modelling studies that consider mesozooplankton feeding regulation have primarily focused on the impact of prey nutritional status and temperature separately, despite experimental evidence for strong links between these two factors.

Phototactic behavior of the marine harpacticoid copepod Tigriopus japonicus related to developmental stages under various light conditions [PDF]

, 2019
Marine harpacticoid copepod Tigriopus japonicus is commonly distributed in the tide-pools and shows benthic behavior. To determine its phototactic behavior, the movement pattern was investigated with different light wavelengths (white, peaks at 460 and ...

Red Pigmentation Can Be Used to Reliably Distinguish Between Live Calanus finmarchicus and Calanus glacialis Females in the Fram Strait

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Copepods from the genus Calanus provide an important lipid-rich food source in the Arctic marine foodweb. Despite extensive research on Calanus finmarchicus and Calanus glacialis, accurately identifying adults to species level remains challenging due to ...
