Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 3, May 2026.Abstract Zooplankton diel vertical migration (DVM) is a crucial marine organism behavior modulating particulate organic carbon (POC) export, yet its dynamic role under climate change remains uncertain. Using a coupled physical–biogeochemical model, we assessed how DVM affects carbon export under future scenarios at two contrasting North Pacific sites ...

Life after death in the pelagic: Non‐predatory zooplankton mortality and the “ghost carbon pump”
Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 3, May 2026.Abstract The biological carbon pump is traditionally framed as a trophically mediated process in which zooplankton mortality is attributed mainly to predation, routing carbon through fecal pellets and higher trophic levels before export. Increasing evidence, however, shows that nonpredatory mortality—caused by different environmental stressors—accounts

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2018 Mesopelagic fishes are an important component of marine ecosystems, providing an important link between lower and higher trophic levels. This group of fishes is also highly abundant and make up a large portion of the marine vertebrate biomass.

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, Volume 24, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Investigations of hydrostatic pressure effects on microbial enzymatic processing are challenging but critical for understanding element cycling in the world's oceans. In this study, we developed and tested a stainless‐steel pressure cell capable of withstanding up to 110 MPa of hydrostatic pressure (equivalent to ~ 11,000 m depth), featuring ...

Differential Drivers of Thermogenic and Bulk Dissolved Organic Matter in the Indian Ocean
Global Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 40, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract The oceanic dissolved organic matter (DOM) pool contains a substantial fraction of recalcitrant carbon, with thermogenic organic compounds representing a chemically distinct, long‐lived component. However, the distribution and transformation of these compounds remain poorly constrained in the Indian Ocean, a key basin of the global overturning

Evidence for dependency of bacterial growth on enzymatic hydrolysis of particulate organic matter in the mesopelagic ocean [PDF]
, 1993 Organic material entering the oceanic mesopelagic zone may either reenter the euphotic zone or settle into deeper waters. Therefore it is important to know about mechanisms and efficiency of substrate conversion in this water layer.

Fisheries Oceanography, Volume 35, Issue 3, Page 445-461, May 2026.ABSTRACT Lepidocybium flavobrunneum [Smith, 1843], commonly known as escolar, is a large pelagic species, important for global and local fisheries, particularly in the southwestern South Atlantic Ocean (SWAO), where it constitutes a significant portion of the catch.

Bacteria as Passive Passengers in the Equatorial Pacific Biological Carbon Pump
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.Abstract Bacteria are important agents modulating the efficiency of the ocean's biological carbon pump (BCP). The long‐standing view considers bacteria as degraders of sinking particulate organic carbon (POC), yet underappreciates their contribution to carbon export.
