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.

Spatial distribution of Euphausiids (Euphausiacea) off Malpelo Island, Colombian Tropical Pacific
Euphausiids migrate vertically in the water column as part of their diel cycle. These migrations make them a key element in the biological pump of the pelagic environment.

Ecology of euphausiacea along the southwest coast of India [PDF]
The ecology of Euphausiacea (Crustacea) of the continental shelf waters along the southwest coast of India has been investigated by a study of the latitudinal and inshore-offshore movements of six species in relation to the environmental parameters ...

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

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

Euphausiacea from Indian seas: systematics and general considerations [PDF]
Taxonomic studies on the Euphausiacea collected from the Laccadive-Maldive and adjoining regions of the Indian Ocean are carried out. Twenty-three species of euphausilds are recorded from this locality with suitable remarks on their biology and keys ...
