Jellyfish blooms and ecological interactions [PDF]
Scientific and public interest in the biology and ecology of gelatinous zooplankton (jellyfish) has increased significantly over the past two decades. This Theme Section represents the proceedings of the 4th International Jellyfish Blooms Symposium held in Hiroshima, Japan, in June 2013; to date, this was the largest meeting ever of the international ...

Identification of genetically and oceanographically distinct blooms of jellyfish [PDF]
Reports of nuisance jellyfish blooms have increased worldwide during the last half-century, but the possible causes remain unclear. A persistent difficulty lies in identifying whether blooms occur owing to local or regional processes.

Is global ocean sprawl a cause of jellyfish blooms? [PDF]
Jellyfish (Cnidaria, Scyphozoa) blooms appear to be increasing in both intensity and frequency in many coastal areas worldwide, due to multiple hypothesized anthropogenic stressors. Here, we propose that the proliferation of artificial structures – associated with (1) the exponential growth in shipping, aquaculture, and other coastal industries, and (2)

Claims That Anthropogenic Stressors Facilitate Jellyfish Blooms Have Been Amplified Beyond the Available Evidence: A Systematic Review [PDF]
The perception that anthropogenic stressors cause jellyfish blooms is widespread within the scientific literature and media but robust evidence in support of these claims appears scarce.

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

The introduction of invasive alien species (IAS) and the occurrence of jellyfish blooms and harmful algal blooms (HABs) can significantly alter native biodiversity and disrupt ecosystem functioning.

DNA Metabarcoding Reveals Unexpected Predator-Prey-Microbial Dynamics in the Southern Right Whale (Eubalaena australis). [PDF]
ABSTRACT Southern right whale (Eubalaena australis; SRW) populations are recovering from the impacts of commercial whaling, however, recovery has been spatially variable, with strong associations between reproduction and prey availability. The diet of SRWs has not been widely examined, and with SRW foraging shifting away from high‐latitude foraging ...

From ctenophores to scyphozoans: parasitic spillover of a burrowing sea anemone [PDF]
Most host-parasite associations are explained by phylogenetically conservative capabilities for host utilization, and therefore parasite switches between distantly related hosts are rare.

Background Jellyfish blooms represent a significant but largely overlooked source of labile organic matter (jelly-OM) in the ocean, characterized by a high protein content.
