Quantitative distribution and feeding of euphausiids in the Okhotsk Sea
Euphausia in the Okhotsk Sea is one of the most abundant groups of zooplankton, its portion in the total zooplankton biomass in the epipelagic layer is 25.4-37.4 %, depending on season, the total stock is 83.2 · 106 t in spring, 66.3 · 106 t in summer ...

Zooplankton biomass in the ice-covered Weddell Sea, Antarctica [PDF]
Zooplankton was sampled by a Rectangular Midwater Trawl (RMT 1 + 8) in Weddell Sea surface waters (0 to 300 m) between 66 and 78°S during austral summer (February – March 1983). Sixty-nine taxa including different developmental stages were considered and

ABSTRACT North Pacific humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) have recovered rapidly following their depletion by commercial whaling. Diet studies are necessary to assess food web implications of their recovery. This study investigates the diet composition of humpback whales foraging in the northern Strait of Georgia, British Columbia, Canada, an ...

The supplemental effect of Antarctic krill meal (KM) into a low fish meal (FM) diet was evaluated for olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus). A 56% FM‐based diet was regarded as a high FM inclusion diet (HFM), and a low‐FM diet (LFM) was prepared by ...

The Biodiversity of Peter I Island—The Most Remote Island in the World
Peter I Island is one of the most isolated and least visited islands on earth; lying within the Antarctic Polar Front but over 420 km from continental Antarctica. Here we assess the biodiversity of the island from both previous records and our own BioBlitz in January 2022.
