Adaptive genetic traits in pelagic freshwater microbes.

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, 2022
Pelagic microbes have adopted distinct strategies to inhabit the pelagial of lakes and oceans and can be broadly categorized in two groups: free-living, specialized oligotrophs and patch-associated generalists or copiotrophs.

Olfaction Contributes to Pelagic Navigation in a Coastal Shark. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
How animals navigate the constantly moving and visually uniform pelagic realm, often along straight paths between distant sites, is an enduring mystery. The mechanisms enabling pelagic navigation in cartilaginous fishes are particularly understudied.

Offshore pelagic subsidies dominate carbon inputs to coral reef predators

open access: yesScience Advances, 2021
Coral reef predators are overwhelmingly sustained by offshore pelagic plankton sources rather than by reef-based sources. Coral reefs were traditionally perceived as productive hot spots in oligotrophic waters.

A new southern record of the holopelagic annelid Poeobius meseres Heath, 1930 (Flabelligeridae) [PDF]

open access: yesBiodiversity Data Journal, 2020
The unusual holopelagic annelid Poeobius meseres Heath, 1930 (Flabelligeridae) was first collected from Monterey Bay, California, and has been subsequently recorded across the northern Pacific from Japan to the Gulf of California. Rare occurrences in the

First record of a live adult heteropod Firoloida desmarestia in the Red Sea

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Observations are essential to explore and discover the ocean. The rapid advancements in technology have revolutionized our capacity to document the ocean and its diverse array of species, pushing the boundaries of our understanding further than ever ...

Diversity, Abundance, and Ecological Roles of Planktonic Fungi in Marine Environments

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2022
Fungi are considered terrestrial and oceans are a “fungal desert”. However, with the considerable progress made over past decades, fungi have emerged as morphologically, phylogenetically, and functionally diverse components of the marine water column ...

Modeling Fine-Scale Cetaceans’ Distributions in Oceanic Islands: Madeira Archipelago as a Case Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Species distributional estimates are an essential tool to improve and implement effective conservation and management measures. Nevertheless, obtaining accurate distributional estimates remains a challenge in many cases, especially when looking at the ...

Biomass composition of the golden tide pelagic seaweeds Sargassum fluitans and S. natans (morphotypes I and VIII) to inform valorisation pathways.

open access: yesScience of the Total Environment, 2020
Massive strandings of the pelagic brown algae Sargassum have occurred in the Caribbean, and to a lesser extent, in western Africa, almost every year since 2011. These events have major environmental, health, and economic impacts in the affected countries.

voluModel: Modelling species distributions in three‐dimensional space

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Ecological niche modelling (ENM), species distribution modelling and related spatial analytical methods were first developed in two‐dimensional (2‐D) terrestrial systems; many common ENM workflows organize and analyse geographically structured occurrence
