We should not assume that fishing jellyfish will solve our jellyfish problem [PDF]
ICES Journal of Marine Science, 2015 Abstract Whether jellyfish are increasing or not in the global ocean is a subject of some debate, but the fact remains that when they bloom, jellyfish can negatively affect local economies. Despite this, there has been no robust debate about the idea of deliberately removing jellyfish as a means of population control.

Predator-Induced Vertical Behavior of a Ctenophore [PDF]
, 2012 Although many studies have focused on Mnemiopsis leidyi predation, little is known about the role of this ctenophore as prey when abundant in native and invaded pelagic systems. We examined the response of the ctenophore M.

Jellyfish Stings Trigger Gill Disorders and Increased Mortality in Farmed Sparus aurata (Linnaeus, 1758) in the Mediterranean Sea. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Jellyfish are of particular concern for marine finfish aquaculture. In recent years repeated mass mortality episodes of farmed fish were caused by blooms of gelatinous cnidarian stingers, as a consequence of a wide range of hemolytic, cytotoxic, and ...

Harnessing Discrete Differential Geometry: A Virtual Playground for the Bilayer Soft Robots
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.A discrete differential geometry‐based framework is developed to model the mechanics of bilayer structures with asymmetric geometry and material properties. The simulations capture dynamic bending and contact interactions in soft robotic grasping, crawling, jumping, and swimming, demonstrating the framework's versatility for programmable shape morphing

An Adapted Slipping Process to Exclude Jellyfish in the Sea of Marmara Purse Seine Fishery
Marine Science and Technology Bulletin, 2020 Excluding the jellyfish from the bunt-end is a common slipping process used in the Sea of Marmara purse seine fishery. For this aim, a sheet of netting piece, larger mesh size and thicker diameter, is rigged on the bunt-end of the purse seine net.

Functional morphology of the pharyngeal teeth of the ocean sunfish, Mola mola
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Many fish use a set of pharyngeal jaws in their throat to aid in prey capture and processing, particularly of large or complex prey. In this study—combining dissection, CT scanning, histology, and performance testing—we demonstrate a novel use of pharyngeal teeth in the ocean sunfish (Mola mola), a species for which pharyngeal jaw anatomy had ...
