Jellyfish blooms perception in Mediterranean finfish aquaculture
In recent years, negative impacts of jellyfish blooms (JB) on marine human activities have been increasingly reported. Aquaculture has been affected by jellyfish outbreaks, mostly documented through repeated episodes of farmed salmon mortalities in Northern Europe; however, the valuation of JB consequences on the aquaculture sector still remains poorly

Offshore marine constructions as propagators of moon jellyfish dispersal
We have studied the influence of offshore marine constructions on the moon jellyfish population in the Adriatic sea, where the newly set up substrates enable the formation of a new population based in the formerly unpopulated open waters.

Ecological and Biogeochemical Consequences of Collapsed Jellyfish Blooms
Jellyfish are distributed globally and often form blooms that last from weeks to months before they collapse. While blooms are sustained they can play an important role in carbon and nutrient cycling and can influence key ecosystem processes.

Bacterial degradation of ctenophore Mnemiopsis leidyi organic matter
Blooms of gelatinous zooplankton, an important source of protein-rich biomass in coastal waters, often collapse rapidly, releasing large amounts of labile detrital organic matter (OM) into the surrounding water.
