The main objectives of the KM3NeT Collaboration are (i) the discovery and subsequent
observation of high-energy neutrino sources in the Universe and (ii) the determination of the …

Marine nepheloid layer is widely distributed in the oceans and marginal seas. The
concentration of suspended particles in the nepheloid layer is significantly higher than that …

Marine particles are key to the cycling of major elements on Earth and play an important role
in the balance of nutrients in the ocean. Three main categories of marine particles link the …

Marine litter represents a widespread type of pollution in the World's Oceans. This study is

We present here a unique oceanographic and meteorological data set focus on the deep
convection processes. Our results are essentially based on in situ data (mooring, research …

The capability of animals to emit light, called bioluminescence, is considered to be a major
factor in ecological interactions. Because it occurs across diverse taxa, measurements of …

Abstract During winter 2012–2013, open‐ocean deep convection which is a major driver for
the thermohaline circulation and ventilation of the ocean, occurred in the Gulf of Lions …

Abstract The Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD), introduced in June 2008, was
adopted to achieve a Good Environmental Status (GES) in the EU's marine waters and to …
