Spatiotemporal analysis of micronekton biomass at the mouth of the River Plate

Acta Scientiarum: Biological Sciences
The 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.

Mesoscale Eddies Structure Mesopelagic Communities

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020
Mesoscale eddies play a key role in structuring open ocean ecosystems, affecting the entire trophic web from primary producers to large pelagic predators including sharks and elephant seals.

Mesoscale subduction at the Almeria-Oran front. Part 2: biophysical interactions. [PDF]

, 2001
This paper presents a detailed diagnostic analysis of hydrographic and current meter data from three, rapidly repeated, fine-scale surveys of the Almeria–Oran front.

Oxygen minimum zone: An important oceanographic habitat for deep-diving northern elephant seals, Mirounga angustirostris. [PDF]

, 2017
Little is known about the foraging behavior of top predators in the deep mesopelagic ocean. Elephant seals dive to the deep biota-poor oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) (>800 m depth) despite high diving costs in terms of energy and time, but how they ...

Spatial dynamics of a nearshore, micronekton sound-scattering layer [PDF]

ICES Journal of Marine Science, 2003
AbstractIn the Hawaiian Islands, there is a distinct resident community of micronekton, distributed along a narrow band where the upper underwater slopes of the islands meet the oceanic, mesopelagic environment. This mesopelagic boundary community serves as an important food resource to many animals.

Meta-Analysis of Salmon Trophic Ecology Reveals Spatial and Interspecies Dynamics Across the North Pacific Ocean

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
We examined spatial patterns in diet, trophic niche width and niche overlap for chum, pink and sockeye salmon across the North Pacific during 1959–1969. This is a baseline period before major hatchery enhancement occurred coinciding with a negative phase

A Multidisciplinary Approach to Investigate Deep-Pelagic Ecosystem Dynamics in the Gulf of Mexico Following Deepwater Horizon

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020
The pelagic Gulf of Mexico (GoM) is a complex system of dynamic physical oceanography (western boundary current, mesoscale eddies), high biological diversity, and community integration via diel vertical migration and lateral advection.

Stable isotope patterns in micronekton from the Mozambique Channel [PDF]

Deep Sea Research Part II: Topical Studies in Oceanography, 2014
Abstract We measured the stable carbon (δ 13 C) and nitrogen (δ 15 N) isotopic composition of tissues of micronektonic organisms (fishes, squids, crustaceans and gelatinous organisms) collected in the Mozambique Channel during two scientific cruises in 2008 and 2009. The oceanic circulation in the Mozambique Channel is dominated by mesoscale cyclonic
