Jellyfish blooms in China: Dominant species, causes and consequences

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2010
Three jellyfish species, Aurelia aurita, Cyanea nozakii and Nemopilema nomurai, form large blooms in Chinese seas. We report on the distribution and increasing incidence of jellyfish blooms and their consequences in Chinese coastal seas and analyze their relationship to anthropogenically derived changes to the environment in order to determine the ...

Jellyfish Blooms in the Yangtze Estuary

Science, 2005
Jellyfish blooms in estuaries worldwide ([1][1]) can have substantial effects on plankton communities and fish populations because jellyfish are consumers of zooplankton and ichthyoplankton. Jellyfish populations normally fluctuate regularly, causing periodic blooms.

Jellyfish Blooms

2014
Jellyfish are one of the most conspicuous animals in our oceans and are renowned for their propensity to form spectacular blooms. The unique features of the biology and ecology of jellyfish that enable them to bloom also make them successful invasive species and, in a few places around the world, jellyfish have become problematic.

Photocatalytic Degradation of Jellyfish Polyps: A Sustainable Approach to Combat Jellyfish Blooms

Marine Pollution Bulletin
Jellyfish blooms had been frequently occurred around the globe in recent decades, which had been extensively managed due to their serious ecological and socio-economic damage. However, the environment-friendly methods by eliminating polyps to early control the outbreaks of medusae from source had been rarely involved despite exiting some physical and ...
