VERDA: A Multisampler Tool for Mesopelagic Nets
Different types and systems to discriminate plankton samples at different strata in the water column have been developed in recent decades. For sampling at sufficient depth, opening and closing zooplankton multinets are ideal because there is no ...

Midwater trawl surveys were conducted during 2007–10 at meso- and bathypelagic depths in and near The Gully, a large submarine canyon off Nova Scotia that is also a Marine Protected Area.

Exploration of the “larval pool”: development and ground-truthing of a larval transport model off leeward Hawai‘i [PDF]
Most adult reef fish show site fidelity thus dispersal is limited to the mobile larval stage of the fish, and effective management of such species requires an understanding of the patterns of larval dispersal.

Dietary partitioning mediates species coexistence in the high seas area of northwest Pacific
Niche partitioning, manifesting along various axes of the ecological niche, is a fundamental mechanism mediating species coexistence in a system. However, the emergence of many species in marine ecosystems would face considerable constraints in achieving coexistence through spatiotemporal differentiation mechanisms under the framework of niche ...

ABSTRACT Japanese anchovy (Engraulis japonicus) is the most abundant fish in the East China Sea (ECS) and an important fishery resource throughout its life stages. Using samples collected along the ECS shelf‐break in April over a 22‐year period (2001–2022), we examined the horizontal distribution and interannual variability of larval density (mean ...

Chinook salmon in the Central Valley of California have notable intraspecific diversity because it is the only place where four distinct migration timings (Winter, Spring, Fall, Late‐fall) co‐occur. The Winter run is listed as Endangered and the Spring run is listed as Threatened under the Endangered Species Act. To quantify temporal changes in genetic

Abstract Artificial light at night (ALAN) poses a threat to ecosystems globally. It includes both direct and indirect light, or skyglow, which occurs when ALAN scatters in the atmosphere, extending beyond its original source. We analyzed ALAN trends in Lake Washington, WA, from 2014 to 2023 using Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS ...

In this paper, we proposed a mathematical model of a mid-water trawl system. The model consisted of towing warps, otter boards, a trawl net, and other rigging components. The warp and the net were modeled with the lumped mass method.

Biodiversity of North Sea Pelagic Cephalopod Early Life Phases
ABSTRACT Cephalopods are increasing in biomass and abundance in the North Sea. In addition to their amplified importance for the ecosystem, they have also become a relevant resource for fisheries and landings are rising. Besides a growing knowledge about cephalopod biology, many gaps exist about the early life phases (ELP) of cephalopods. For the first
