Biogeography of Micronekton Assemblages in the Natural Park of the Coral Sea [PDF]
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020 Mesopelagic resources are central to the ecosystem but remain poorly studied mainly due to the lack of observations. This paper investigates the assemblages of micronekton organisms and their habitat in the Natural Park of the Coral Sea around New ...

Modeling the contribution of micronekton diel vertical migrations to carbon export in the mesopelagic zone [PDF]
BiogeosciencesMicronekton plays a significant but often overlooked role in carbon transport within the ocean. Using a one-dimensional trait-based model, we simulated the diel vertical migrations (DVMs) of micronekton and their carbon production through respiration ...

Zooplankton and Micronekton Active Flux Across the Tropical and Subtropical Atlantic Ocean
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2019 Quantification of the actual amount of carbon export to the mesopelagic layer by both zooplankton and micronekton is at present a gap in the knowledge of the biological pump.

A critical time window for organismal interactions in a pelagic ecosystem. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 To measure organismal coherence in a pelagic ecosystem, we used moored sensors to describe the vertical dynamics of each step in the food chain in shelf waters off the west shore of Oahu, Hawaii.

Potential exploitable micronektons from the Deep Scattering Layers(DSL) of the Indian EEZ [PDF]
, 2004 The benthic realm of the inner shelf was also swept incessantly and trampled by bottom trawlers leading to habitat degradation, destruction with an ultimate impact on the food web, by-catch and other commercially important species through ...

Spatiotemporal analysis of micronekton biomass at the mouth of the River Plate
Acta Scientiarum: Biological SciencesThe region adjacent to the River Plate is renowned for its fishing activity and abundant biodiversity. Both are closely linked to the significant local river flows responsible for fertilizing extensive marine areas.
