Effects of experimental in situ seabed disturbance on deep‐sea macrofaunal communities of Chatham Rise, Southwest Pacific

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 59, Issue 5, Page 1422-1459, December 2025.
ABSTRACT With the possibility of deep‐sea mining of mineral resources occurring, it is necessary to understand potential impacts on benthic communities. Previous simulated mining experiments revealed direct benthic impacts; however, indirect impacts of sedimentation are not well understood.

Influence of biotic and abiotic sediment factors on abundance and biomass of harpacticoid copepods in a shallow Antarctic bay

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2005
This study presents data of the first investigation on benthic harpacticoid copepods in Potter Cove, King George Island, Antarctica (62°14’S, 58°40’W) with special emphasis on spatial distribution and relation to environmental factors. In addition to the

Effects of an experimental in situ seabed disturbance on deep‐sea benthic ecosystem function and macro‐infaunal community structure on the Chatham Rise, Southwest Pacific

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 59, Issue 5, Page 1496-1529, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Expansion of extractive industries to deep‐sea environments will lead to increased stresses on seafloor ecosystems. We examined changes in environmental parameters following direct and indirect experimental benthic disturbance using a modified plough on the Chatham Rise (∼450 m water depth), Aotearoa/New Zealand. Measurements included sediment

Sibling species of copepods in association with Mediterranean gorgorians

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2004
Hitherto a single species of Doridicola Leydig (Poecilostomatoida: Rhynchomolgidae) has been found reported in association with gorgonians in Europe: Doridicola botulosus (Stock and Kleeton, 1963), living on the Mediterranean gorgonian Eunicella ...

About the relationship between the zooplankton and fluctuating water levels of Lago Camaleão, a Central Amazonian várzea lake

open access: yes, 1984
A two-year study of the composition and abundance of the zooplankton was conducted in an Amazonian vãrzea lake, Lago Camaleão. Rotifers were dominant in terms of both species numbers and density.

The Salmon Louse Lepeophtheirus salmonis (Copepoda: Caligidae) Life Cycle Has Only Two Chalimus Stages

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Each year the salmon louse ( Lepeophtheirus salmonis Krøyer, 1838) causes multi-million dollar commercial losses to the salmon farming industry world-wide, and strict lice control regimes have been put in place to reduce the release of salmon louse ...

The Effects of Grass Carp on Aquatic Plants, Plankton and Benthos in Ponds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The effects of the grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella Val.)on aquatic plant biomass, water quality, phytoplankton, chlorophyll a, zooplankton and benthic fauna were investigated between May and September 2000 in earthen ponds at Cifteler- Sakaryabasi

De Novo Assembly of a Transcriptome for Calanus finmarchicus (Crustacea, Copepoda) – The Dominant Zooplankter of the North Atlantic Ocean

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Assessing the impact of global warming on the food web of the North Atlantic will require difficult-to-obtain physiological data on a key copepod crustacean, Calanus finmarchicus.

Integrative taxonomy approach to the study of parasitic ergasilids (Cyclopoida: Ergasilidae) of fishes from the Pardo River, Brazil with a redescription of Rhinergasilus piranhus Boeger and Thatcher, 1988 and a molecular phylogeny for Ergasilidae

open access: yesParasitology
Brazil has the richest biodiversity of Ergasilidae on Earth, with 76 species in 19 genera. However, several authors suggested that there is still great potential for discoveries, especially regarding genetic data that are still scarce for ergasilids from
