Systematic Position of the Euphausiacea [PDF]
ELSEWHERE in this issue of Nature (see p. 911) I have mentioned that, although the idea originated with Kemp, Gurney was the first to place the Euphausiacea in the order Decapoda, which he divided into two suborders, Euphausiacea and Eudecapoda. Gurney never intended to include the Euphausiacea in his Ray Society monograph, “Larvae of Decapod Crustacea”

Net phytoplankton and zooplankton in the New York Bight, January 1976 to February 1978, with comments on the effects of wind, Gulf Stream eddies, and slope water intrusions [PDF]
Results are given of monthly net phytoplankton and zooplankton sampling from a 10 m depth in shelf, slope, and Gulf Stream eddy water along a transect running southeastward from Ambrose Light, New York, in 1976, 1977, and early 1978.

Biomass‐to‐volume ratio as a central continuous functional trait for marine zooplankton
Abstract Gelatinous zooplankton are an important component of many ecosystems and important for ecosystem structure and carbon cycling. However, this group is generally not considered in biogeochemical models. Here we investigate the biomass‐to‐volume ratio as an underappreciated “master trait” that allows for the incorporation of a large diversity of ...

ABSTRACT Seasonal differences in marine size spectra of micronekton at the shelf‐ocean interface of the northern (NBUS) and southern Benguela upwelling system (SBUS) in Feb–Mar 2019 and Sep–Oct 2021 were analysed for mesopelagic fishes and total micronekton, the latter also including invertebrates.

Adult and offspring size in the ocean over 17 orders of magnitude follows two life history strategies [PDF]
Explaining variability in offspring vs. adult size among groups is a necessary step to determine the evolutionary and environmental constraints shaping variability in life history strategies.

A preliminary study on the feeding regime of European pilchard (Sardina pilchardus Walbaum 1792) in Izmir Bay, Turkey, Eastern Aegean Sea [PDF]
The gut contents of Sardina pilchardus specimens captured in Izmir Bay were examined in order to determine their feeding regimes. Of the 365 stomachs examined, 321 (87.95%) contained food and 44 (12.05%) were empty. Analysis of gut contents verified that

Stopover duration (length of stay, LOS) is a key variable in avian migration ecology that reflects behavioral decisions to obtain fuel or continue travel between breeding and non‐breeding areas. We find the LOS of Western Sandpipers differs between two important stopover sites on the Pacific Coast of Canada, reflecting different migration strategies ...

Widow rockfish: Proceedings of a workshop, Tiburon, California, December 11-12, 1980 [PDF]
This workshop was organized because of the increase between 1978 and 1980 in coastwide landings of widow rockfish, from less than 1,000 mt to more than 20,000 mt, and because of scientists' concern with the lack of knowledge both of the fishery and ...
