DNA metabarcoding reveals trophic niche diversity of micro and mesozooplankton species
Proceedings of the Royal Society B, 2021 Alternative pathways of energy transfer guarantee the functionality and productivity in marine food webs that experience strong seasonality. Nevertheless, the complexity of zooplankton interactions is rarely considered in trophic studies because of the ...

Mesozooplankton size structure in the Canary Current System
Marine Environmental Research, 2023 Changes in plankton composition influences the dynamics of marine food webs and carbon sinking rates. Understanding the core structure and function of the plankton distribution is of paramount importance to know their role in trophic transfer and efficiency. Here, we studied the zooplankton distribution, abundance, composition, and size spectra for the

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022 The dispersal of organisms in an isolated environment of a hydrothermal vent remains unclear. Here, we provide direct evidence that meroplanktonic larvae may migrate thousands of meters above the ocean floor.

Fecal pellet production by mesozooplankton in the subarctic Northeast Pacific Ocean
Limnology and Oceanography, 2021 Mesozooplankton fecal pellets sinking from the sea‐surface constitute an important component of the biological carbon pump, which is variable in part due to differences in zooplankton community composition on various scales.
