Physiology of Euphausia superba [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Since the 1920s, E. superba is one of the best studied species in the Southern Ocean in terms of their general biology. The main driver for this research focus has been the fisheries’ requirements for stock forecasting and conservation measures. Nowadays this is joined by concerns over climate change effects and the requirement to take a more holistic ...

An Integrated, Size-Structured Stock Assessment of Antarctic Krill, Euphausia superba

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
The Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) fishery is the largest fishery in the Southern Ocean, and it has been operating for over 45 years. In the past decade, the spatial distribution of the krill fishery has focused on the Bransfield Strait off the ...

The application of optical coherence tomography to image subsurface tissue structure of Antarctic krill Euphausia superba [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Many small open ocean animals, such as Antarctic krill, are an important part of marine ecosystems. To discover what will happen to animals such as krill in a changing ocean, experiments are run in aquaria where conditions can be controlled to simulate ...

Swarm of euphausiids in the ocean

open access: yesAntarctic Record, 1981
Euphausiids often form dense swarm in the sea. The surface swarms of Euphausia superba, E. pacifica and some species of Thysanoessa are often observed in the polar waters. The size and density of swarms of euphausiids are various.

Restricted regions of enhanced growth of Antarctic krill in the circumpolar Southern Ocean [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Food webs in high-latitude oceans are dominated by relatively few species. Future ocean and sea-ice changes affecting the distribution of such species will impact the structure and functioning of whole ecosystems. Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) is a

Regional Differences in the Diets of Adélie and Emperor Penguins in the Ross Sea, Antarctica

open access: yesAnimals, 2021
To identify the dietary composition and characteristics of both Adélie (Pygoscelis adeliae) and Emperor (Aptenodytes forsteri) penguins at four breeding sites, we performed stable carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N) isotope analysis of down samples taken ...
