The importance of Antarctic krill in biogeochemical cycles

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) are swarming, oceanic crustaceans, up to two inches long, and best known as prey for whales and penguins – but they have another important role.

Trends in marine species distribution models: a review of methodological advances and future challenges

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Correlative species distribution models (SDMs) are quantitative tools in biogeography and macroecology. Building upon the ecological niche concept, they correlate environmental covariates to species presence to model habitat suitability and predict species distributions.

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

open access: yesScientific 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 ...

Safety assessment of Superba™ krill powder: Subchronic toxicity study in rats

open access: yesToxicology Reports, 2015
The safety of krill powder was assessed in a subchronic 13-week toxicity study where rats were fed krill powder or control diets. The krill powder inclusion in the test diet was 9.67% (w/w).

The energetic cost of early reproductive development in juvenile Antarctic krill at the Western Antarctic Peninsula

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
The overwinter survival mechanisms of Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba, are poorly characterized, especially for juveniles. It has been suggested that juveniles adopt a mix of strategies characteristic of both larvae and adults.
