The Greenland–Scotland Ridge in a Changing Ocean: Time to Act?
Marine Ecology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Greenland–Scotland Ridge is a submarine mountain that rises up to 500 m below the sea surface and extends from the east coast of Greenland to the continental shelf of Iceland and across the Faroe Islands to Scotland. The ridge not only separates deeper ocean basins on either side, that is, the North Atlantic and Arctic oceans, but also ...

Chasing after Non-cyanobacterial Nitrogen Fixation in Marine Pelagic Environments
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017 Traditionally, cyanobacterial activity in oceanic photic layers was considered responsible for the marine pelagic dinitrogen (N2) fixation. Other potentially N2-fixing bacteria and archaea have also been detected in the pelagic water column, however, the

Understanding Biogeographic Patterns in Sepiolidae (Cephalopoda)
Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 10, October 2026.ABSTRACT The biogeography of the bobtail squid family Sepiolidae is reviewed. Species of the Sepiolinae subfamily are only found in coastal waters of the ‘Old World’, with a high degree of diversification in the Mediterranean Sea and the Coral Triangle in the Indo‐Pacific region.

Deep‐pelagic fishes: Demographic instability in a stable environment
Ecology and EvolutionDemographic histories are frequently a product of the environment, as populations expand or contract in response to major environmental changes, often driven by changes in climate.

Running the Gauntlet: Assessing the Threats to Vertical Migrators
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020 Diel vertical migrations (DVM) by zooplankton and nekton are driven by the selective advantage of avoiding visually cued predators near the surface during the hours of daylight.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.This study represents the first metabarcoding‐based description of prey composition and parasite‐associated taxa in stranded sei whales from southern South America. ABSTRACT Balaenopterid whales are major consumers in pelagic ecosystems and play a fundamental role in marine food webs.

The downward legacy of a phytoplankton bloom in the oligotrophic North Pacific Subtropical Gyre
Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 10, October 2026.Abstract Ocean particles are a heterogeneous collection, including living and dead cells, feces, mucus‐rich aggregates, and mineral shells and frustules. In the well‐lit upper ocean, phototrophic processes fuel production of particulate matter; however, only a relatively small percentage (< 10% per day) of this material (mostly detrital) escapes the ...

Mesopelagic fish off Mozambique [PDF]
, 1981 The mesopelagic fauna off Mozambique was studied on five cruises of R.V. "Dr. Fridtjof Nansen" during 1977 and 1978. It primarily consisted of Myctophids. At most stations, Benthosema fibulatum or Diaphus spp. were dominant.
