Acoustic classification of zooplankton [PDF]

ICES Journal of Marine Science, 1995
Accurate acoustic characterization of zooplankton species is essential if reliable estimates of zooplankton biomass are to be made from acoustic backscatter measurements of the water column. Work on the forward problem has resulted in the identification of three categories of scatterers, represented by theoretical scattering models [Stanton etal., ICES

Functional models from limited data: A parametric and multimodal approach to anatomy and 3D kinematics of feeding in basking sharks (Cetorhinus maximus)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Basking sharks, Cetorhinus maximus (Gunnerus, Brugden [Squalus maximus], Det Kongelige Norske Videnskabers Selskabs Skrifter, 1765, vol. 3, pp. 33–49), feed by gaping their mouths and gill slits, greatly reorienting their cranial skeletons to filter food from water.

Trends in marine species distribution models: a review of methodological advances and future challenges

Ecography, EarlyView.
Correlative species distribution models (SDMs) are quantitative tools in biogeography and macroecology. Building upon the ecological niche concept, they correlate environmental covariates to species presence to model habitat suitability and predict species distributions.

A systematic review evaluating the performance of eDNA methods relative to conventional methods for biodiversity monitoring

Ecography, EarlyView.
The rapid adoption of environmental DNA (eDNA) methods has drastically changed biodiversity monitoring efforts. It is often claimed that eDNA methods are more sensitive and efficient than conventional biodiversity monitoring methods, but it is often unclear what metrics support this claim.

Short-term fish predation destroys resilience of zooplankton communities and prevents recovery of phytoplankton control by zooplankton grazing.

PLoS ONE, 2019
Planktivorous fish predation directly affects zooplankton biomass, community and size structure, and may indirectly induce a trophic cascade to phytoplankton.

The nutritional status of zooplankton in a tropical reservoir: effects of food quality and community structure

Brazilian Journal of Biology
The temporal variability of energetic reserves of zooplankton in the eutrophic Pampulha reservoir was investigated during two successive annual cycles. The effects of dominance of large filter-feeding cladocerans (Daphnia) and the occurrence of massive ...

Recognizing the Health Benefits of Plant‐Sourced Omega‐3 Stearidonic Acid: Exploring Its Complementary Role to Preformed EPA/DHA

Lipids, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Long‐chain (LC) omega‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) like eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) are crucial for optimal development, healthy aging, and disease management. Traditionally sourced from fatty fish, these omega‐3 PUFAs face sustainability challenges, prompting increased exploration of plant‐based ...

Spatial distributions of zooplankton stable isotopes and their trophic positions in a bay under serious anthropogenic influences: Daya Bay, China

Ecological Indicators, 2022
Trophic structure of zooplankton community can effectively reflect the ecosystem health and the influence of anthropogenic disturbances. The Daya Bay is a semi-closed coastal bay under intensive anthropogenic impacts in northern South China Sea.
