Institutional nuts and bolts for a mesopelagic fishery in Norway [PDF]
While most commercial fish stocks in the north Atlantic are regulated with TAC's (total allowable catch), access regulations and IVQ's (individual vessel quotas), harvesting mesopelagic fish resources, such as pearlsides (Maurolicus muelleri) and glacier

Biogeography of the global ocean's mesopelagic zone [PDF]
The work has arisen from a PhD studentship funded by Australian Antarctic Division, University of Tasmania, and School of Biology. This study has received support from the European H2020 International Cooperation project MESOPP (Mesopelagic Southern ...

Underwater video recordings during mesopelagic trawls in the Northeast Atlantic
During three cruises in the Mid Atlantic Ridge area in 2016 and 2017, we collected samples of mesopelagic species down to a depth of 600 m. We studied fish behaviour and identified and quantified the species composition of the catches using HD videos (60

Contrasting Food Web Dynamics Across Oceanographic Boundaries in Subarctic Pelagic Ecosystems
ABSTRACT Understanding the structure of pelagic food webs across multiple trophic levels is critical for elucidating species interactions, energy flow, and anthropogenic impacts on production. This study presents a comprehensive analysis of the eastern North Pacific pelagic food webs, focusing on the Gulf of Alaska (GoA) during late winter of 2019.

Diversity, Ecology and Biogeochemistry of Cyst-Forming Acantharia (Radiolaria) in the Oceans [PDF]
Marine planktonic organisms that undertake active vertical migrations over their life cycle are important contributors to downward particle flux in the oceans.

While many visual predators feed exclusively during the day, others exploit foraging opportunities at night, although the efficiency with which they do so is strongly influenced by ambient light levels. We investigated the influence of variation in nocturnal light on the foraging behaviour of a small pelagic seabird, the European Storm‐petrel ...

Effects of migrating mesopelagic fishes on the biological carbon pump [PDF]
Mesopelagic fishes and invertebrates contribute to the biological carbon pump (BCP) through direct and indirect effects on the gravitational, diffusive, and migrant (active) fluxes.

Abstract Fewer than 50 of the over 30,000 extant species of fishes have developed anatomical specializations facilitating endothermy in specific body regions. The plankton‐feeding basking shark (Cetorhinus maximus), traditionally classified as an ectotherm, was recently shown to have regionally endothermic traits such as centralized red muscle (RM ...

Abstract Patagonian toothfish (Dissostichus eleginoides) are a long‐lived, slow‐growing deep‐sea species endemic to the Southern Hemisphere and the focus of longline fisheries managed to ensure sustainable exploitation. Managing the fisheries relies on accurate stock assessments that include pertinent biological and exploitation processes.
