A thorough annotation of the krill transcriptome offers new insights for the study of physiological processes

Scientific Reports, 2022
The krill species Euphausia superba plays a critical role in the food chain of the Antarctic ecosystem. Significant changes in climate conditions observed in the Antarctic Peninsula region in the last decades have already altered the distribution of ...

Monitoring Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) distribution in the Southern Ocean: environmental DNA (eDNA) adds to the toolbox

Frontiers in Marine Science
Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba Dana) is a key species of the Southern Ocean ecosystem, immensely abundant and targeted by the krill fishery. For their sustainable management, krill distribution and biomass estimates are required, typically achieved ...

Mobulid rays feed on euphausiids in the Bohol Sea [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science, 2017
Mobulid rays have a conservative life history and are caught in direct fisheries and as by-catch. Their subsequent vulnerability to overexploitation has recently been recognized, but fisheries management can be ineffective if it ignores habitat and prey ...

Satellite-Based Lagrangian Model Reveals How Upwelling and Oceanic Circulation Shape Krill Hotspots in the California Current System

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
In the California Current System, wind-driven nutrient supply and primary production, computed from satellite data, provide a synoptic view of how phytoplankton production is coupled to upwelling. In contrast, linking upwelling to zooplankton populations

Environmental variability and krill abundance in the central California current: Implications for ecosystem monitoring

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Krill are a direct conduit between primary productivity and recreationally and commercially important higher trophic level species globally. Determining how krill abundance varies with temporal environmental variation is key to understanding their ...

Hemispherical Distribution of Antarctic Krill Indicates High Abundance in Amundsen Sea

Oceans
Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) are an essential source of food for whale, seal, several fish, squid and seabird species in the Southern Ocean. Krill also play a major role in biogeochemical cycling and are the target of a growing commercial fishery.

Krill excretion boosts microbial activity in the Southern Ocean.

PLoS ONE, 2014
Antarctic krill are known to release large amounts of inorganic and organic nutrients to the water column. Here we test the role of krill excretion of dissolved products in stimulating heterotrophic bacteria on the basis of three experiments where ...

Circulating Omega‐3 Fatty Acids and Cardiometabolic Outcomes: A Systematic Review of Publications From UK Biobank

Lipids, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Studies have shown that omega‐3 fatty acids may protect against cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and related metabolic conditions. UK Biobank is a large cohort study that includes data on plasma omega‐3 fatty acids at study entry and health outcomes during the follow‐up period.

Energy densities of key prey species in the California Current Ecosystem

Frontiers in Marine Science
The energetic content of primary and secondary consumers is central to understanding ecosystem functioning, community assembly, and trophodynamics. However, these foundational data are often limited, especially for marine ecosystems.
