Meso‐ to Submesoscale Variability of Particulate Carbon Export Captured by a Glider‐Camera System in the Northeast Atlantic During the APERO Campaign

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Between 9 June and 6 July 2023 a SeaExplorer glider equipped with an Underwater Vision Profiler (UVP6), surveyed frontal structures between a cyclonic and two anticyclonic eddies in the Northeast Atlantic as part of the APERO cruise (Assessing marine biogenic matter Production, Export and Remineralization: from the surface to the dark Ocean ...

Light and Vision in the Deep-Sea Benthos: I. Bioluminescence at 500-1000 m Depth in the Bahamian Islands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Bioluminescence is common and well studied in mesopelagic species. However, the extent of bioluminescence in benthic sites of similar depths is far less studied, although the relatively large eyes of benthic fish, crustaceans and cephalopods at bathyal ...

eDNA Metabarcoding Identifies Fish Conservation Priorities in Deep‐Water Fjords of British Columbia, Canada

open access: yesConservation Letters, Volume 19, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Fjords are deep‐water estuaries that support a wide range of marine habitats for pelagic fish. Yet, knowledge gaps in fish distribution and habitat use limit the implementation of efficient marine conservation strategies within fjords. Using five British Columbia fjords as a case study, we demonstrated that eDNA metabarcoding combined with ...

Attenuation of sinking particulate organic carbon flux through the mesopelagic ocean [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The biological carbon pump, which transports particulate organic carbon (POC) from the surface to the deep ocean, plays an important role in regulating atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations. We know very little about geographical variability in

Environmental Heterogeneity Predicts Behavioural Diversity in a Widely Distributed Group of Marine Carnivores

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Environmental heterogeneity shapes species diversity by creating ecological niches (habitat heterogeneity hypothesis). Yet its role in driving behavioural diversity within species remains only partially understood. Behavioural diversity enhances a population's ability to exploit ecological niches and adapt to environmental change, making ...

The potential role of Antarctic krill faecal pellets in efficient carbon export at the marginal ice zone of the South Orkney Islands in spring [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) play a central role in the food web of the Southern Ocean, forming a link between primary production and large predators.

Modeling micronekton diel vertical migration contribution to carbon export in the mesopelagic zone

open access: gold
Micronekton is a diverse group assemblage of marine animals, described as active swimmers ranging from 2 to 20 cm. Micronekton organisms perform diel vertical migrations, feeding on nutrient-rich surface waters during the night and migrate several hundred meters at sunrise to deep waters, where they digest their food, generating an active transport of ...

Temporal variability of dissolved iron species in the mesopelagic zone at Ocean Station PAPA

open access: yesJournal of Marine Systems, 2017
Abstract Deposition of atmospheric aerosols to the surface ocean is considered an important mechanism for the supply of iron (Fe) to remote ocean regions, but direct observations of the oceanic response to aerosol deposition are sparse. In the high nutrient, low chlorophyll (HNLC) subarctic Pacific Ocean we observed a dissolved Fe and Fe(II) anomaly ...

Mapping Escolar (Lepidocybium flavobrunneum) in Motion: Oceanographic Forces Shaping Its Habitat in the Southwestern South Atlantic, With Insights From Fishers' Perceptions

open access: yesFisheries 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.
