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

Recurrent jellyfish blooms are a consequence of global oscillations. [PDF]
A perceived recent increase in global jellyfish abundance has been portrayed as a symptom of degraded oceans. This perception is based primarily on a few case studies and anecdotal evidence, but a formal analysis of global temporal trends in jellyfish populations has been missing.

Targeting metzincins to mitigate jellyfish blooms: a novel approach for conservation
IntroductionThe modification of the marine ecological environment has led to the frequent occurrence of jellyfish blooms, causing global hazards. The budding reproduction of jellyfish polyps is a critical factor in their population size, yet there is ...
