Contemporary Methods for Capturing Juvenile Salmonids in the Marine Environment

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 2, Page 160-178, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Anadromous salmonids play vital roles in marine and freshwater ecosystems. The most abundant of these fishes—Pacific salmon (Oncorhynchus spp.)—are integral to coastal ecosystems and communities across the North Pacific Rim, but numerous populations are experiencing dramatic declines, particularly towards the south of their range.

Cytotoxic effect on human keratinocytes of crude extracts from planktonic Cnidaria

Journal of Biological Research, 2009
Biotoxin production is a characterizing aspect of the physiology and ecology of several marine organisms. In this study the cytotoxic effect of crude extracts from jellyfish Pelagia noctiluca, Chrysaora hysoscella and Aurelia aurita (Cnidaria: Scyphozoa)

Effects of experimental in situ seabed disturbance on deep‐sea macrofaunal communities of Chatham Rise, Southwest Pacific

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 59, Issue 5, Page 1422-1459, December 2025.
ABSTRACT With the possibility of deep‐sea mining of mineral resources occurring, it is necessary to understand potential impacts on benthic communities. Previous simulated mining experiments revealed direct benthic impacts; however, indirect impacts of sedimentation are not well understood.

A new Byronia species from the Late Ordovician of Estonia [PDF]

Estonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2016
A new species of a possible thecate scyphozoan Byronia jaegeri sp. nov. is described from the late Katian of Estonia. This new taxon is distinct as it lacks the longitudinal ornamentation present in other Byronia species.

Coupling hydrodynamic drifting simulations and seasonal demographics to unmask the drivers of jellyfish blooms

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 11, Page 2971-2986, November 2025.
Crucially, the framework we present here offers an approach for identifying the, to date, unknown locations of polyp beds; a key parameter in enhancing our capacity to accurately predict the occurrence of jellyfish blooms. Accordingly, this framework represents a key decision‐support tool for mitigating the socio‐economic impacts of bloom formation ...

Limited Dispersal of Benthic Environmental DNA From a Subtropical Mesophotic Shelf‐Edge Bank

Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 5, September–October 2025.
We investigated the vertical and horizontal dispersion of eDNA away from an isolated mesophotic coral reef (Bright Bank) in stratified offshore waters. We found that vertical transport of benthic eDNA was limited by water column stratification and that the prevalence of eDNA from benthic invertebrates declined with horizontal distance away from the ...

Multigene phylogeny of the scyphozoan jellyfish family Pelagiidae reveals that the common U.S. Atlantic sea nettle comprises two distinct species (Chrysaora quinquecirrha and C. chesapeakei) [PDF]

PeerJ, 2017
Background Species of the scyphozoan family Pelagiidae (e.g., Pelagia noctiluca, Chrysaora quinquecirrha) are well-known for impacting fisheries, aquaculture, and tourism, especially for the painful sting they can inflict on swimmers. However, historical

Biomass‐to‐volume ratio as a central continuous functional trait for marine zooplankton

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 70, Issue 9, Page 2673-2687, September 2025.
Abstract Gelatinous zooplankton are an important component of many ecosystems and important for ecosystem structure and carbon cycling. However, this group is generally not considered in biogeochemical models. Here we investigate the biomass‐to‐volume ratio as an underappreciated “master trait” that allows for the incorporation of a large diversity of ...
