Fecal pellet packaging enhances marine carbon sequestration
Abstract Fecal pellets produced by marine zooplankton contribute substantially to transporting biologically fixed carbon from the sunlit sea surface into deeper water layers. Their occurrence and composition are often heterogeneous, and pellets may undergo various changes while sinking, making it difficult to quantitatively assess their mechanisms of ...

Beiträge zum Mesozooplankton des Nordsylter Wattenmeers
Contributions to the mesozooplankton of the northern Wadden Sea of Sylt. From June 1975 to June 1976 temperature, salinity, mesozooplankton (>76 µm), phytoplankton and seston (dry weight, particulate organic carbon and nitrogen) were measured at different stations in the northern Wadden Sea of Sylt (German Bight, North Sea).

Dynamic factor analysis of mesozooplankton variability in the Gulf of Cádiz
Mesozooplankton plays a key role in pelagic ecosystems, acting as an intermediate trophic link and a modulator of biogeochemical cycles. However, its dynamics remain poorly understood on the northeastern shelf of the Gulf of Cádiz, a highly productive ...

Looking for general trends in trophic interactions among estuarine micro- and mesozooplankton [PDF]
Trophic interactions among micro- and mesozooplankton were investigated in the Schelde estuary. Field populations of plankton were separated by selective filtrations (30 and 200 mm).

Abstract Trophic connections between the food web base and zooplankton affect the structure of marine food webs and fluxes to higher predators. The food that zooplankton consume shifts in response to prey resources, but specific zooplankton trophic sources remain unresolved over the dynamic seasonal cycle for many species.

Species Distribution Models for Mesopelagic Mesozooplankton Community
ABSTRACTAimWe aimed to enhance our understanding of the distribution of mesopelagic mesozooplankton (MM) using species distribution models, assess the performance of various modelling techniques, identify key environmental predictors for MM distribution and compute their habitat suitability indices.LocationOur study focused on the mesopelagic zone ...

This article analyses future projections of ocean properties for a region of the south‐west Pacific Ocean encompassing the New Zealand Exclusive Economic Zone under different climate change emission scenarios. Projections are updated and expanded from previous assessments using a “best” ensemble comprising both CMIP5 and CMIP6 earth system models.

ABSTRACT Growth and survival rates during the early life stages are key vital parameters driving population dynamics of fish. Growth rates generally present a pattern of autocorrelation. Growth autocorrelation is stronger when faster and slower growing individuals continue to grow faster and slower.
