Seasonal and diel patterns in Black Sea harbour porpoise acoustic activity in 2020–2022 [PDF]

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
The Black Sea is a semi‐enclosed inland sea with an unevenly distributed extensive coastal shelf area and anoxic deep waters. It is inhabited by common and bottlenose dolphins, as well as harbour porpoises, all represented by local subspecies.

Diel vertical migration and distribution of zooplankton in a tropical Brazilian reservoirlian

open access: yesBiotemas, 2009
Migração vertical e distribuição do zooplâncton em um açude tropical brasileiro. A migração vertical diária do zooplâncton é uma estratégia geralmente utilizada para reduzir o risco de predação, mas que pode também se associar às mudanças de dia/noite ...

Animal behavior is central in shaping the realized diel light niche

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2022
Investigating the light as experienced by zooplankton undergoing synchronized diel vertical migration in an Arctic fjord around the spring equinox provides insights into how animal behavior shapes the Realized Diel Light Niche.

Enhancement of anammox by the excretion of diel vertical migrators [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2014
Significance Nitrogen, the limiting nutrient for primary production across much of the ocean, is converted to biologically inactive N 2 by denitrification and anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) in anoxic waters.

The diel vertical distribution and carbon biomass of the zooplankton community in the Caroline Seamount area of the western tropical Pacific Ocean

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Zooplankton can affect and regulate the biological carbon pump in the biogeochemical cycles of marine ecosystems through diel vertical migration (DVM) behaviour.

Assessing mesopelagic fish diversity and diel vertical migration with environmental DNA

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Mesopelagic fishes are an important component of the world’s oceans in terms of their abundance, biomass, and ecosystem function. These fishes are important contributors to the biological carbon pump via their feeding and behaviors, whereby they ...

Modeling diel vertical migration with membrane computing

open access: yesJournal of Membrane Computing, 2020
Diel vertical migration (DVM) is an important ecological phenomenon in which zooplankton migrate vertically to deal with trade-offs associated with greater food availability in shallow waters and lower predator risk in deep waters due to lower light availability.

New insight into Salpa thompsoni distribution via glider-borne acoustics

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Salpa thompsoni is an ephemerally abundant pelagic tunicate in the waters of the Southern Ocean that makes significant contributions to carbon flux and nutrient recycling in the region. While S.

Copuling population dynamics and diel migration patterns [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
The diel vertical migration is one of the main drivers of population dynamics in the ocean. Population dynamical models of the ocean typically do not incorporate the behavioral aspects of the migration.
