Identifying copepod functional groups from species functional traits
International audienceWe gathered information on the functional traits of the most representative copepod species in the Mediterranean Sea. Our database includes 191 species described by 7 traits encompassing diverse ecological functions: minimal and ...

Ontogenetic and seasonal variation in the Diel Vertical Migration of the Copepods Metridia lucens and Metridia longa [PDF]
Plankton samples collected and analyzed by the Continuous Plankton Recorder survey were used to examine the length of time spent near the surface in the North Atlantic and the North Sea by three closely related groups of zooplankton (copepodite stages 1 ...

An in‐depth review of the nanomaterial‐based electromagnetic interference shields, which are absorption‐dominant and have a high green index. The design strategies of absorption‐dominant shields are analyzed, and current challenges and potential pathways to guide future advancements and practical implementation are outlined.

Seasonality in Marine Organic Carbon Export and Sequestration Pathways
Abstract The ocean's biological carbon pump transports organic carbon from the surface to depth via three main pathways: the gravitational sinking of particles, active transport by vertically migrating zooplankton, and mixing and advection of suspended and dissolved organic carbon.

Diet of oceanic loggerhead sea turtles (Caretta caretta) in the central North Pacific [PDF]
Diet analysis of 52 loggerhead sea turtles (Caretta caretta) collected as bycatch from 1990 to 1992 in the high-seas driftnet fishery operating between lat. 29.5°N and 43°N and between long.

Predator-Induced Vertical Behavior of a Ctenophore [PDF]
Although many studies have focused on Mnemiopsis leidyi predation, little is known about the role of this ctenophore as prey when abundant in native and invaded pelagic systems. We examined the response of the ctenophore M.

Diel vertical migration of Peridiniopsis niei, Liu et al., a new species of dinoflagellates in an eutrophic bay of Three-Gorge Reservoir, China [PDF]
In spring, a typical dinoflagellate (Peridiniopsis niei Liu et al.) constitutes most of the phytoplankton biomass in most of eutrophic bay of Three-Gorge Reservoir (TGR, China). There are few field observations on vertical migration of the members of the

Diel Vertical Migration inDaphina Iumholtzi(Sars)
ABSTRACT In light of recent studies which suggest that the extreme morphology of Daphnia lumholtzi (Sars) does not effectively deter all vertebrate predators, we sought to determine if this species exhibits behavioral responses that, may minimize planktivory by fish.

Abstract The biological carbon pump sequesters carbon through passive fluxes of biologically derived carbon, and by active vertical movement of marine organisms. Trophic coupling between pelagic and benthic communities increases the efficiency of the biological carbon pump as less carbon is lost to remineralization.
