Interactions Between Multiple Physical Particle Injection Pumps in the Southern Ocean

Global Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 38, Issue 12, December 2024.
Abstract Contributions to the biological pump that arise from the physical circulation are referred to as physical particle injection pumps. A synthesized view of how these physical pumps interact with each other and other components of the biological pump does not yet exist.

Recent advances in the Mediterranean researches on zooplankton: from spatial–temporal patterns of distribution to processes oriented studies

Advances in Oceanography and Limnology, 2010
In this review we focus on research performed by Italian scientists on pelagic communities, from microzooplankton to micronekton, mainly in the Italian Seas. We considered published data, mostly as grey literature, and unpublished ones.

Seasonality of zooplankton active flux in subtropical waters

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 69, Issue 11, Page 2564-2579, November 2024.
Abstract The biological carbon pump (BCP) is the mechanism by which the ocean transports organic matter below the mixed layer, exporting or sequestering it for years to millennia. Physical transport of dissolved and particulate organic carbon, the sinking of particles, and the carbon transported by diel and seasonal vertical migrants are the three main

Winter distribution of macroplankton and micronekton in Masfjorden, western Norway

Marine Ecology Progress Series, 1988
Masfjorden was investigated as a potential site for sea ranching of cod. The macroplankton and micronekton were studied in order to reveal the distributional patterns of species and biomass during winter. The biomass was dominated by the mesopelagic fishes Benthosema glaaale and Maurolicus muelleri, the pelagic shrimps Pasiphaea multidentata and ...

Genetics in the Ocean's Twilight Zone: Population Structure of the Glacier Lanternfish Across Its Distribution Range

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 17, Issue 11, November 2024.
ABSTRACT The mesopelagic zone represents one of the few habitats that remains relatively untouched from anthropogenic activities. Among the many species inhabiting the north Atlantic mesopelagic zone, glacier lanternfish (Benthosema glaciale) is the most abundant and widely distributed.

Carbon injection potential of the mesopelagic-migrant pump in the Southern Ocean during summer

Frontiers in Marine Science
The passive sinking flux of particles, termed the biological gravitational pump (BGP), is an important component of the ocean’s biological carbon pump. In addition, carbon-rich particles are actively injected to depth through the diel vertical migration (

The potential impact of Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) on fisheries [PDF]

, 1986
The commercial development of ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC) operations will involve some environmental perturbations for which there is no precedent experience. The pumping of very large volumes of warm surface water and cold deep water and its

Distribution, population biology, and trophic ecology of the deepwater demersal fish Halosauropsis macrochir (Pisces: Halosauridae) on the mid-Atlantic Ridge.

PLoS ONE, 2012
Halosauropsis macrochir ranked amongst the most abundant and widespread demersal fishes on the mid-Atlantic Ridge of the North Atlantic (Iceland-Azores) with greatest abundance at 1700-3500 m.

Forage fauna in the diet of bigeye tuna (Thunnus obesus) in the western tropical Atlantic Ocean

Brazilian Journal of Oceanography, 2012
A total of 291 stomachs of bigeye tuna caught in the Western tropical Atlantic Ocean ranging between 60 and 195 cm fork length, were analyzed between October 2004 and November 2005.
