Lipids provide the densest form of energy in marine ecosystems. They are also a solvent
and absorption carrier for organic contaminants and thus can be drivers of pollutant …

The determinants of the structure, functioning and resilience of pelagic ecosystems across
most of the polar regions are not well known. Improved understanding is essential for …

Abstract The three Arctic Calanus species, C. finmarchicus (Gunnerus, 1765), C. glacialis
(Jaschov, 1955), and C. hyperboreus, are the most important herbivores in Arctic seas in …

Large‐scale biogeographical changes in the biodiversity of a key zooplankton group
(calanoid copepods) were detected in the north‐eastern part of the North Atlantic Ocean and …

Climate change is unambiguous and its effects are clearly detected in all functional units of
the Earth system. This study presents new analyses of sea-surface temperature changes …

Calanus finmarchicus is a key‐structural species of the North Atlantic polar biome. The
species plays an important trophic role in subpolar and polar ecosystems as a grazer of …

Macroecological relationships provide insights into rules that govern ecological systems.
Bergmann's rule posits that members of the same clade are larger at colder temperatures …

Marine zooplankton represent a very diverse group in the world's oceans, with numerous
taxa of high abundance and biomass. Many of these zooplankton species, especially the …

Variations in larval fish growth rates are largely the result of variability in biotic and abiotic
characteristics of the feeding environment experienced by each individual. An assessment …

Primary production in the Southern Ocean is dominated by diatom‐rich phytoplankton
assemblages, whose individual physiological characteristics and community composition …
