Impacts of jellyfish presence on tourists’ holiday destination choices and their willingness to pay for mitigation measures

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Planning and Management, 2022
Recurrent jellyfish blooms in tourist areas have negative effects on coastal and national economies. We investigate how jellyfish presence affects holiday destination choice and how the adoption of mitigation measures can reduce impacts through analyzing

Passive Energy Recapture in Jellyfish Contributes to Propulsive Advantage over other Metazoans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Gelatinous zooplankton populations are well known for their ability to take over perturbed ecosystems. The ability of these animals to outcompete and functionally replace fish that exhibit an effective visual predatory mode is counterintuitive because ...

Aerobic respiration, biochemical composition, and glycolytic responses to ultraviolet radiation in jellyfish Cassiopea sp

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
The light-dependent zooxanthellate jellyfish Cassiopea sp. (the upside-down jellyfish) is invasive/exotic in many shallow and clear marine habitats, where the jellyfish might be exposed to high levels of ultraviolet radiation (UVR).

A Wake-Based Correlate of Swimming Performance and Foraging Behavior in Seven Co-Occurring Jellyfish Species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
It is generally accepted that animal–fluid interactions have shaped the evolution of animals that swim and fly. However, the functional ecological advantages associated with those adaptations are currently difficult to predict on the basis of ...

Lagrangian analysis of fluid transport in empirical vortex ring flows [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In this paper we apply dynamical systems analyses and computational tools to fluid transport in empirically measured vortex ring flows. Measurements of quasisteadily propagating vortex rings generated by a mechanical piston-cylinder apparatus reveal lobe

Multi-functional soft-bodied jellyfish-like swimming

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
The functionalities of the untethered miniature swimming robots significantly decrease as the robot size becomes smaller, due to limitations of feasible miniaturized on-board components.

Reynolds number limits for jet propulsion: A numerical study of simplified jellyfish [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The Scallop Theorem states that reciprocal methods of locomotion, such as jet propulsion or paddling, will not work in Stokes flow (Reynolds number = 0).

Inhibitory Effect of Metalloproteinase Inhibitors on Skin Cell Inflammation Induced by Jellyfish Nemopilema nomurai Nematocyst Venom

open access: yesToxins, 2019
Jellyfish envenomations result in extensive dermatological symptoms, clinically named as jellyfish dermatitis, which can seriously affect the daily activities and physical health of people. Inflammatory response accompanies the whole process of jellyfish

Application of environmental DNA metabarcoding and quantitative PCR to detect blooming jellyfish in a temperate bay of northern China

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2023
Frequently occurring jellyfish blooms have severe impacts on the socioeconomics of coastal areas, which stress the importance of early detection and assessments of blooming jellyfish taxa.
