Detection and distribution of Craspedacusta sowerbii: Observations of medusae are not enough [PDF]

, 2012
The freshwater cnidarian Craspedacusta sowerbii, native to the Yangtze valley, has invaded lakes and ponds throughout the world. Most distribution records have to date been based on observations of the medusa (jellyfish) stage, including numerous recent ...

Biomass of scyphozoan jellyfish, and its spatial association with 0-group fish in the Barents Sea. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
An 0-group fish survey is conducted annually in the Barents Sea in order to estimate fish population abundance. Data on jellyfish by-catch have been recorded since 1980, although this dataset has never been analysed.

First assessment of flux rates of jellyfish carcasses (jelly-falls) to the benthos reveals the importance of gelatinous material for biological C-cycling in jellyfish-dominated ecosystems

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2015
There is accumulating evidence that jellyfish contribute significantly to biological carbon cycling and that their carcasses can have controversial effects on seafloor ecosystems. Moreover, changes in the thermal properties of the ocean, ocean chemistry

Jellyfish distribution in space and time predicts leatherback sea turtle hot spots in the Northwest Atlantic.

PLoS ONE, 2020
Leatherback sea turtles (Dermochelys coriacea) migrate to temperate Canadian Atlantic waters to feed on gelatinous zooplankton ('jellyfish') every summer.

Pulsing corals: A story of scale and mixing [PDF]

, 2017
Effective methods of fluid transport vary across scale. A commonly used dimensionless number for quantifying the effective scale of fluid transport is the Reynolds number, Re, which gives the ratio of inertial to viscous forces.

Boom and Bust: Life History, Environmental Noise, and the (un)Predictability of Jellyfish Blooms

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2018
Jellyfish (pelagic Cnidarians and Ctenophores) form erratic and seemingly unpredictable blooms with often large, transient effects on ecosystem structure. To rapidly capitalize on favorable conditions, jellyfish can employ different life histories, which

Biochemical Characterization of Cassiopea andromeda (Forsskål, 1775), Another Red Sea Jellyfish in the Western Mediterranean Sea

Marine Drugs, 2021
Increasing frequency of native jellyfish proliferations and massive appearance of non-indigenous jellyfish species recently concur to impact Mediterranean coastal ecosystems and human activities at sea.

Spatial distribution and dietary overlap between Japanese anchovy Engraulis japonicus and moon jellyfish Aurelia aurita in the Seto Inland Sea, Japan

Scientia Marina, 2009
Biological and physical surveys were conducted in order to investigate the relationship between environmental conditions and the distribution of ichthyoplankton and jellyfish, and dietary overlap between the ichthyoplankton and jellyfish in the Seto ...

Influence of collagen and some proteins on gel properties of jellyfish gelatin

PLoS ONE, 2021
Marine gelatin is one of the food proteins used in food and non-food products, offering desirable functionalities such as gelling, thickening, and binding.

Ancestral Protein‐Based Lighting

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
The ancestral sequence reconstruction (ASR) method applied to a large dataset of modern fluorescent proteins (FPs) led to a bright ancestral‐like FP suitable for photon down‐conversion in bio‐hybrid light‐emitting diodes (Bio‐HLEDs). Abstract Protein‐optoelectronics is a paradigm toward eco‐designed and sustainable technologies.
