Plankton vertical migrations - Implications for the pelagic ecosystem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Habitat selection is an important behavior of many organisms. The direction and strength of this behavior is often characterized as a result of a trade off between predator avoidance and obtaining resources. A characteristic example of this trade off may

Rhyming in the cold: first evidence of soniferous fishes in the Southern Ocean

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
The acoustic ecology of Southern Ocean fishes remains unknown due to a lack of dedicated acoustic research on the fishes of this ocean. Passive acoustic monitoring data were collected at the South African sub‐Antarctic Prince Edward Islands using an underwater acoustic recorder, and towed underwater Ski‐Monkey cameras were deployed to identify fish ...

Migratory Zooplankton Excreta and Its Influence on Prokaryotic Communities

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2020
Particulate organic matter (POM) (fecal pellets) from zooplankton has been demonstrated to be an important nutrient source for the pelagic prokaryotic community.

Vertical Fine-Scale Distribution of Calanus sinicus in the Yellow Sea Cold Water Mass During the Over-Summering Process

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Calanus sinicus, a temperate copepod with a lethal temperature >27°C, is one of the key species in Chinese coastal marine ecosystems. The C. sinicus population increases in spring and declines in early summer annually due to increasing water ...

Multi‐Platform Deployments of Low‐Cost Devices for Cetacean Passive Acoustic Monitoring

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Recent advances in affordable, user‐friendly devices offer new opportunities to overcome cost constraints of underwater passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) and expand acoustic data collection. In this study, we deployed low‐cost acoustic recorders and underwater cameras across a range of platforms in the Western Mediterranean, including fishing gear ...

Creating a Masterpiece. The Road to (and Beyond) Woodward and Hoffmann's 1969 Angewandte Chemie Treatise

open access: yesThe Chemical Record, EarlyView.
This publication describes how R. B. Woodward and Roald Hoffmann crafted their masterpiece publications. Illustrations include Woodward's first draft of the famous “Violations There are none. Nor can violations be expected of so fundamental a principle of maximum bonding.” Original but discarded text shows the stepwise paths toward the W‐H masterpieces.

Evidence of Diel Vertical Migration of Mesopelagic Sound-Scattering Organisms in the Arctic

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2017
While sound scattering layers (SSLs) have been described previously from ice-covered waters in the Arctic, the existence of a viable mesopelagic community that also includes mesopelagic fishes in the Arctic has been questioned.

Linking telemetry data with forage availability maps advances information for moose management

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Evidence‐based forest and wildlife management requires precise estimates of forage availability for spatial planning and conflict mitigation. Recently, novel datasets and associated maps have been developed for use in Swedish forest and wildlife management.

Understanding mammal avoidance of human settlements

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Terrestrial mammals often avoid human settlements, but is this a result of human activity around buildings or the built infrastructure per se? Using data on animal movement before and during the COVID‐19 lockdowns, this paper disentangles these effects, showing how changes in human mobility affect animals' avoidance of buildings. Abstract Anthropogenic

Management Implications of Mesopelagic Forage Fisheries for Bigeye Tuna Stocks

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Many large marine predators forage on mesopelagic fish stocks, including commercially valuable tunas. The mesopelagic is under increasing interest for commercial exploitation, given its large biomass with potential to supply fishmeal for aquaculture feed or fish oil.
