Chlorophyll shading reduces zooplankton diel migration depth in a high-resolution physical–biogeochemical model [PDF]

Ocean Science
Zooplankton diel vertical migration (DVM) is critical to ocean ecosystem dynamics and biogeochemical cycles, by supplying food and injecting carbon into the mesopelagic ocean (200–800 m).

Altered photoperiod affects behaviour in a key fish grazer, the thinlip grey mullet, Chelon ramada

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The aim of this study is to address experimentally the immediate impacts of an alteration of the photoperiod, simulating an extreme artificial light pollution, on the behaviour and stress of a key grazer fish common in temperate coastal ecosystems in Europe, the thinlip grey mullet, Chelon ramada.

Listening to tuna: Acoustic characterization of captive juvenile yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares)

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The effectiveness of passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) for studying marine biodiversity highly relies on comprehensive libraries of species‐specific sounds. While sound production is well‐documented in reef and freshwater fishes, the acoustic behaviour of ecologically and economically vital pelagic species like tunas still remains largely ...

A new species of Peniculus (Copepoda: Siphonostomatoida) parasitizing mesopelagic myctophid fish: first discovery of colonization of the genus in deep water

Parasite, 2018
Peniculus hokutoae n. sp. is described on the basis of an ovigerous adult female parasitizing the caudal fin of the myctophid fish Symbolophorus evermanni (Gilbert, 1905), collected from Suruga Bay, Japan.

Marine heatwaves shape size‐dependent thermal exposure, habitat use and marine residency in Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus)

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Marine heatwaves (MHWs) are increasing in high‐latitude oceans, yet behavioural responses of anadromous fishes to these potential stressors during short marine feeding seasons remain poorly understood. We combined acoustic telemetry (internal temperature and depth) with satellite‐derived sea surface temperature data to quantify Arctic char ...

First insights into oceanic manta ray movements in Japan using satellite telemetry

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Japanese waters represent the northern distributional limit of the western Pacific distribution of the oceanic manta ray (Mobula birostris), yet movement ecology in this region remains poorly understood. We report movements of the first satellite‐tagged individual in Japan.

Shark preferences: Only subtle effects of electromagnetic field exposure and substrate type on small‐spotted catshark (Scyliorhinus canicula) behaviour

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Offshore wind energy plays a crucial role in the transition to low‐carbon power generation. The expansion of offshore wind farms (OWFs) introduces anthropogenic electromagnetic fields (EMFs) from subsea power cables. Elasmobranchs, including sharks and rays, are sensitive to natural electric and magnetic fields used for navigation and prey ...

The Importance of Mesozooplankton Diel Vertical Migration for Sustaining a Mesopelagic Food Web

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2019
We used extensive ecological and biogeochemical measurements obtained from quasi-Lagrangian experiments during two California Current Ecosystem Long-Term Ecosystem Research cruises to analyze carbon fluxes between the epipelagic and mesopelagic zones ...

Continuous darkness is associated with improved growth performance during a high‐temperature period and sex‐specific modulation of early gonadal development in juvenile yellowtail (Seriola quinqueradiata)

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Selective breeding of yellowtail (Seriola quinqueradiata) is expanding in Japan, increasing the demand for practical reproductive control tools in commercial aquaculture to reduce genetic risks from escapees. Slowing early gonadal development through environmental manipulation may support future sterilization strategies, particularly when ...

The nightscape of the Arctic winter shapes the diving behavior of a marine predator

Scientific Reports
Predator–prey interactions in marine ecosystems are dynamically influenced by light, as demonstrated by diel vertical migrations of low-trophic level organisms.
