Macroscale abundance patterns of hydromedusae in the temperate Southwestern Atlantic (27º-56º S) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Gelatinous organisms are crucial components of marine ecosystems and some species imply social and economic consequences. However, certain geographic areas, such as the temperate Southwestern Atlantic (SWA, 27 - 56 S), remain understudied in terms of ...

Is global ocean sprawl a cause of jellyfish blooms? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Jellyfish (Cnidaria, Scyphozoa) blooms appear to be increasing in both intensity and frequency in many coastal areas worldwide, due to multiple hypothesized anthropogenic stressors.

Omnivory by the Small Cosmopolitan Hydromedusa Aglaura Hemistoma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We investigated the feeding of the small hydromedusa, Aglaura hemistoma (bell diameter \u3c 4 mm), to determine if it occupies a trophic position similar to that of large medusae.

Cassiopea andromeda (Cnidaria, Scyphozoa) in the subtropical eastern Atlantic

open access: yesJournal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom
Abstract This study provides the first records of the upside-down jellyfish Cassiopea andromeda (Forskål, 1775) in the eastern Atlantic supported by molecular analysis. Specimens were observed, recorded, and sampled in an inland aquaculture facility in September 2023 in Tenerife Island (Canary Islands).

Environmental control of asexual reproduction and somatic growth of Aurelia spp. (Cnidaria, Scyphozoa) polyps from the Adriatic Sea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Polyps of two moon jellyfish species, Aurelia coerulea and A. relicta, from two Adriatic Sea coastal habitats were incubated under multiple combinations of temperature (14, 21°C), salinity (24, 37 ppt) and food regime (9.3, 18.6, 27.9 μg C ind−1 week−1 ...

Jellyfish blooms in the Mediterranean [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
The temporal and spatial distributions of coastal aggregations of the scyphomedusa Pelagia noctiluca around the Maltese Islands during the period 1980 to 1986 were investigated by means of sighting reports from volunteers as well as by periodic ...

Trophic ecology of carnivorous zooplankton in the Benguela [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Carnivorous zooplankton in the Benguela system have tended to be ignored by all but early taxonomists and a handful of recent researchers. An attempt is made here to address the importance of carnivores in this system but, because the database is poor ...

Preliminary investigation of light regime and the population dynamics of a deep sea scyphozoan, Periphylla periphylla, in a Northern Norwegian fjord [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Jellyfish blooms have been reported worldwide and have ecological and economical consequences. Causes of mass abundances have suggested and include eutrophication, climate change and overfishing.
