Oceanographic mechanisms that possibly explain dominance of neritic-tropical zooplankton species assemblages around the Islas Marías Archipelago, Mexico

open access: yesLatin American Journal of Aquatic Research, 2014
The nearshore zooplankton species assemblage, identified per taxonomic groups (20) and per species for 12 selected groups, was analyzed from samples collected during November 2010 at four volcanic islands of the Islas Marías Archipelago (IMA), located 90-

Euphausiacea diversity in a trans-oceanic transect through the South Atlantic Ocean: the first Atlantic record of Thysanopoda astylata Brinton, 1975

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2019
: Information about euphausiids in central South Atlantic Ocean is scarce; hence, we investigated species composition and distribution of euphausiids along a longitudinal transect in this region, with an emphasis on Thysanopoda.

Diet variation and trophic impact of weakfish, Cynoscion regalis, within multiple marine habitats of the eastern United States

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, Volume 105, Issue 6, Page 1628-1642, December 2024.
Abstract Weakfish (Cynoscion regalis) is not federally managed but feeds on species of management and ecological interest. We examined the trophic ecology of weakfish in Chesapeake Bay and the coastal and offshore waters of the eastern United States. For these areas, we determined the dominant prey of weakfish; identified how much diet variation was ...

Seasonal trends in Subantarctic plankton δ13C and δ15N are driven by phytoplankton dynamics and nutrient preference

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 69, Issue 11, Page 2547-2563, November 2024.
Abstract The carbon and nitrogen isotope ratios (δ13C and δ15N) of marine plankton record biogeochemical processes at the base of the food web. In the Southern Ocean, such data, predominantly from summer, have been used to infer surface CO2 concentrations and the potential for biological carbon export.

The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Euphausia pacifica (Malacostraca: Euphausiacea) reveals a novel gene order and unusual tandem repeats

open access: yes, 2011
Euphausiid krill are dominant organisms in the zooplankton population and play a central role in marine ecosystems. Euphausia pacifica (Malacostraca: Euphausiacea) is one of the most important and dominant crustaceans in the North Pacific Ocean. In this

Evolutionary formation of melatonin and vitamin D in early life forms: insects take centre stage

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 99, Issue 5, Page 1772-1790, October 2024.
ABSTRACT Melatonin, a product of tryptophan metabolism via serotonin, is a molecule with an indole backbone that is widely produced by bacteria, unicellular eukaryotic organisms, plants, fungi and all animal taxa. Aside from its role in the regulation of circadian rhythms, it has diverse biological actions including regulation of cytoprotective ...

Annual and Spatial Variation in the Diet of Juvenile Pacific Cod in Mutsu Bay, Japan

open access: yesFishes
To evaluate Mutsu Bay as a nursery habitat for Pacific cod (Gadus macrocephalus Tilesius, 1810), we analyzed settled age-0 juveniles collected with a small bottom otter trawl over 10 years.

Re-Evaluation of Life History Traits of Sandfish (Arctoscopus japonicus) in Eastern Korean Waters

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
The sandfish (Arctoscopus japonicus) is an important fishery resource in the East/Japan Sea; however, its stock has recently declined sharply. Most ecological studies were conducted before the mid-2000s, limiting our understanding of recent ecological ...
