Diets and Seasonal Ingestion Rates of Aurelia coerulea (Cnidaria: Scyphozoa) Polyps by in situ Feeding Experiments in Jiaozhou Bay, China

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
The benthic scyphopolyp population is an important stage in the scyphozoan lifecycle. Nevertheless, few studies have detailed the natural feeding and quantified the energy flux of polyps based on field research.

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

open access: yesFrontiers 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

Microbial Processing of Jellyfish Detritus in the Ocean

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
When jellyfish blooms decay, sinking jellyfish detrital organic matter (jelly-OM), rich in proteins and characterized by a low C:N ratio, becomes a significant source of OM for marine microorganisms.

Relationship Between Asexual Reproduction of Aurelia coerulea Polyps and Jellyfish Blooms Under the Influence of Temperature Dynamics in Winter and Spring

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Aurelia coerulea, a type of scyphozoan jellyfish, has massively appeared in the coastal waters of China in recent years and caused great damage, but the asexual reproduction of A. coerulea polyp predicted by local temperature could not correspond well to

Aggregation process of two disaster-causing jellyfish species, Nemopilema nomurai and Aurelia coerulea, at the intake area of a nuclear power cooling-water system in Eastern Liaodong Bay, China

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
The intake safety of nuclear power cooling-water systems (NPCSs) is an important aspect of operational safety of nuclear power plants (NPPs). The blockages caused by aberrant outbreaks of various aquatic organisms have seriously affected operational ...

Preface: Jellyfish blooms: interactions with humans and fisheries [PDF]

open access: yesHydrobiologia, 2012
There is a general impression that jellyfish and other gelatinous organisms are increasing in number. Media, TV, and newspapers contribute to this impression. So are increases in jelly populations real, or is this phenomenon just a biased perception?
