Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022 Bioaccumulation by zooplankton is the outset for persistent organic pollutants that enter the marine food chain. Owing to a full spectrum of anthropogenic activities, the Gaoping waters of southwestern Taiwan are exposed to large quantities of ...

Characterization of plankton from the Galveston estuary [PDF]
, 1992 The purpose of this report is to summarize the published studies on phytoplankton and zooplankton in the Galveston Estuary. Before this project had begun, it was determined that there was insufficient long term data on plankton in the Galveston Estuary ...

Effect of zooplankton-mediated trophic cascades on marine microbial food web components (bacteria, nanoflagellates, ciliates) [PDF]
, 2009 To examine the grazing effects of copepod-dominated mesozooplankton on heterotrophic microbial communities, four mesocosm experiments using gradients of zooplankton abundance were carried out at a coastal marine site.

Advection of Mesozooplankton Into the Northern Svalbard Shelf Region
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2019 The northern Svalbard shelf region is part of the Atlantic advective contiguous domain along which nutrients, phyto- and mesozooplankton are advected with Atlantic Water from the Norwegian Sea along the Norwegian shelf break and into the Arctic Ocean. By

Drivers and uncertainties of future global marine primary production in marine ecosystem models [PDF]
, 2015 Past model studies have projected a global decrease in marine net primary production (NPP) over the 21st century, but these studies focused on the multi-model mean rather than on the large inter-model differences. Here, we analyze model-simulated changes

The summertime plankton community at South Georgia (Southern Ocean): comparing the historical (1926/27) and modern (post 1995) records. [PDF]
, 2008 The earliest comprehensive plankton sampling programme in the Southern Ocean was 32 undertaken during the early part of last century by Discovery Investigations to gain a 33 greater scientific understanding of whale stocks and their summer feeding ...

Assessing good environmental status through mesozooplankton biodiversity: a step forward
Journal of Plankton Research, 2022 Abstract We developed a zooplankton-based water-quality evaluating method using indices of alpha diversity. Two key objectives were set: (i) the comparison of two—different quality—samples from different areas, and the verification of their differentiation, based on mesozooplankton biodiversity indices; and (ii) the development of a ...

Characterization of the zooplankton in the continental shelf of the Brazilian Equatorial Atlantic
Boletim do Instituto de Pesca, 2023 The equatorial Atlantic is characterized by its high abundance of zooplankton. However, starting point studies concerning the species composition in the northern Brazilian continental shelf are still scarce.

Differences in the trophic ecology of micronekton driven by diel vertical migration. [PDF]
, 2019 Many species of micronekton perform diel vertical migrations (DVMs), which ultimately contributes to carbon export to the deep sea. However, not all micronekton species perform DVM, and the nonmigrators, which are often understudied, have different ...
