Two hundred years of zooplankton vertical migration research
Vertical migration is a geographically and taxonomically widespread behaviour among
zooplankton that spans across diel and seasonal timescales. The shorter‐term diel vertical …

Rhythms and clocks in marine organisms
The regular movements of waves and tides are obvious representations of the oceans'
rhythmicity. But the rhythms of marine life span across ecological niches and timescales …

Biogeography of the global ocean's mesopelagic zone
R Proud, MJ Cox, AS Brierley - Current Biology, 2017 - cell.com
The global ocean's near surface can be partitioned into distinct provinces on the basis of
regional primary productivity and oceanography [1]. This ecological geography provides a …

Sea-ice decline could keep zooplankton deeper for longer
H Flores, G Veyssière, G Castellani, J Wilkinson… - Nature Climate …, 2023 - nature.com
As Arctic sea ice deteriorates, more light enters the ocean, causing largely unknown effects
on the ecosystem. Using an autonomous biophysical observatory, we recorded zooplankton …

From siphonophores to deep scattering layers: uncertainty ranges for the estimation of global mesopelagic fish biomass
The mesopelagic community is important for downward oceanic carbon transportation and is
a potential food source for humans. Estimates of global mesopelagic fish biomass vary …
