Ecological Trap or Favorable Habitat? First Evidence That Immature Sea Turtles May Survive at Their Range-Limits in the North-East Atlantic

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Unusual environmental events can push marine animals outside their physiological tolerances through changes in trophic and/or thermal conditions. Such events typically increase the risk of stranding.

Variability in micronekton active carbon transport estimates on the Southwest Coast of Oahu using three different sampling gears

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Micronekton were sampled off the southwest coast of Oahu in October of 2004 as part of the North Pacific Marine Sciences Organization (PICES) Micronekton Sampling Gear Intercalibration experiment (MIE-1).

The impact of a Southern Ocean cyclonic eddy on mesopelagic micronekton

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2021
AbstractMesoscale eddies shape the foraging ecology of predators such as marine mammals and seabirds. A growing number of animal tracking studies show that predators alter their swimming, diving, and foraging behavior within mesoscale eddies. However, little is known about how Southern Ocean eddies influence the distribution of mesopelagic micronekton (

Dispersion Overrides Environmental Variability as a Primary Driver of the Horizontal Assemblage Structure of the Mesopelagic Fish Family Myctophidae in the Northern Gulf of Mexico

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020
The lanternfishes (Myctophidae) are a highly speciose, globally-distributed family of fishes that constitute a dominant component of the global pelagic fauna.

Mesopelagic Scattering Layer Behaviors Across the Clarion-Clipperton Zone: Implications for Deep-Sea Mining

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
The Clarion-Clipperton Zone (CCZ) is a 4 million km2 area in the eastern Central Pacific Ocean exhibiting large variability in environmental parameters, particularly oxygen and primary production, that is being targeted for deep-sea polymetallic nodule ...

State of Satiation Partially Regulates the Dynamics of Vertical Migration

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Vertical migrations into shallower waters at night are beneficial for migrators as they reduce predation risk and allow migrators to encounter a higher density of prey.
