Characterization of plankton from the Galveston estuary [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
The purpose of this report is to summarize the published studies on phytoplankton and zooplankton in the Galveston Estuary. Before this project had begun, it was determined that there was insufficient long term data on plankton in the Galveston Estuary ...

Analisis Komposisi Jenis dan Kelimpahan Zooplankton di Perairan Kampung Nafri, Kota Jayapura

open access: yesNekton, 2023
This study aimed to determine the type, composition, and abundance of zooplankton in the waters of Kampung Nafri. Zooplankton were identified using zooplankton sample identification guidelines, and zooplankton abundance analysis was performed using the ...

Zooplankton as a potential vector for white band disease transmission in the endangered coral, Acropora cervicornis [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2017
Coral diseases are a leading factor contributing to the global decline of coral reefs, and yet mechanisms of disease transmission remain poorly understood. This study tested whether zooplankton can act as a vector for white band disease (WBD) in Acropora

A fisheries acoustic multi-frequency indicator to inform on large scale spatial patterns of aquatic pelagic ecosystems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Fisheries acoustic instruments provide information on four major groups in aquatic ecosystems: fish with and without swim bladder (tertiary and quaternary consumers), fluidlike zooplankton (secondary consumers) and small gas bearing organisms such as ...

Large deep-sea zooplankton biomass mirrors primary production in the global ocean

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
The biological pump transports organic carbon produced by photosynthesis to the meso- and bathypelagic zones, the latter removing carbon from exchanging with the atmosphere over centennial time scales.

Effects of the proximal factors on the diel vertical migration of zooplankton in a plateau meso-eutrophic Lake Erhai, China

open access: yesJournal of Limnology, 2014
To study the proximal factors inducing diel vertical migration (DVM) in large and small zooplankton species in a plateau lake in China, we investigated the DVM of crustacean zooplankton in lake Erhai bimonthly from November 2009 to September 2010.

Interactive Effects of Hypoxia and Temperature on Coastal Pelagic Zooplankton and Fish

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2019
Hypoxia, triggered in large part by eutrophication, exerts widespread and expanding stress on coastal ecosystems. Hypoxia is often specifically defined as water having dissolved oxygen (DO) concentrations < 2 mg L-1.

Microplastics Alter the Properties and Sinking Rates of Zooplankton Faecal Pellets.

open access: yesEnvironmental Science and Technology, 2016
Plastic debris is a widespread contaminant, prevalent in aquatic ecosystems across the globe. Zooplankton readily ingest microscopic plastic (microplastic, < 1 mm), which are later egested within their faecal pellets.

Biodiversity and distribution of gelatinous macrozooplankton in the North Sea and adjacent waters - dataset from winter 2022ZENODO

open access: yesData in Brief
The diversity and distribution of gelatinous macrozooplankton is described by presenting qualitative and quantitative data of the jellyfish and comb jelly community encountered in the North Sea and Skagerrak/Kattegat during January/February 2022.

Zooplankton are not fish: improving zooplankton realism in size-spectrum models mediates energy transfer in food webs

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2016
The evidence for an equal distribution of biomass from bacteria to whales has led to development of size-spectrum models that represent the dynamics of the marine ecosystem using size rather than species identity.
