The impacts of past, present and future ocean chemistry on predatory planktonic snails
Royal Society Open Science, 2021 The atlantid heteropods represent the only predatory, aragonite shelled zooplankton. Atlantid shell production is likely to be sensitive to ocean acidification (OA), and yet we know little about their mechanisms of calcification, or their response to ...

Aquaculture Reports, 2023 The development of a feeding protocol of copepods and cladocerans is of paramount significance nowadays because they are considered nutritionally enriched live feeds for rearing numerous aquaculture species. Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022 The locally isolated harpacticoid copepods Tigriopus sp. and Tisbe holothuriae were subjected to salinity tolerance experimentation at salinities under and above of 40 ppt, and presented high halotolerances in Tigriopus LC50 (24 h) of 1 ± 4.43 ppt and ...

The Peril of the Plankton [PDF]
Integrative and Comparative Biology, 2010 The pelagic environment is characterized by unevenly distributed resources and risks. Such unpredictability presents adaptive challenges to diverse planktonic organisms including the larvae of benthic marine invertebrates. Estimates of mortality during planktonic development are highly variable, ranging from 0% to 100% per day.

Transcriptomic Responses of Adult Versus Juvenile Atlantids to Ocean Acidification
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 Shelled holoplanktonic gastropods are among the most vulnerable calcifiers to ocean acidification. They inhabit the pelagic environment and build thin and transparent shells of aragonite, a metastable form of calcium carbonate.

Plankton lattices and the role of chaos in plankton patchiness [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2004 Spatiotemporal and interspecies irregularities in planktonic populations have been widely observed. Much research into the drivers of such plankton patches has been initiated over the past few decades but only recently have the dynamics of the interacting patches themselves been considered. We take a coupled lattice approach to model continuous-in-time

Life, 2022 Two local marine cyanobacteria, Phormidium sp. and Cyanothece sp., were batch-cultured under 18–19.5 °C, at 40 ppt salinity, using white LED light of low (40 μmol photons/m2/s) and high (160 μmol/m2/s) intensity and, additionally, blue, green and red LED

Impacts of Microplastics on the Swimming Behavior of the Copepod Temora turbinata (Dana, 1849)
Fluids, 2020 Zooplankton are prone to the ingestion of microplastics by mistaking them for prey. However, there is a lack of knowledge about the impacts of microplastic availability on zooplankton behavior.
