▪ Abstract Studies investigating the effects of temperature, food availability, or other physical
factors on the physiology of marine animals have led to the development of biochemical …

A major aim of this review is to determine which physiological functions are adopted by
adults and larvae to survive the winter season with low food supply and their relative …

Euphausia superba is exceptional among euphausiids for the large filtering surface of the
feeding basket and its fine mesh size (2–3 μm), which remain into adulthood. This enables …

Growth, molting, and development of larval Antarctic krill were investigated near Marguerite
Bay during four cruises in austral autumn and winter 2001 and 2002, as part of the US …

We investigated physiological parameters (elemental and biochemical composition,
metabolic rates, feeding activity and growth) of adult Antarctic krill in the Lazarev Sea in late …

The copepod Calanus finmarchicus plays a crucial role in the north Atlantic food web. Its
seasonal life cycle involves reproduction and development in surface waters before …

Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba, shapes the structure of the Southern Ocean ecosystem.
Its central position in the food web, the ongoing environmental changes due to climatic …

A better understanding of the nutritional requirements and digestive processes are essential
for improving the consumption and growth of spiny lobsters on formulated diets used in …

In the Arctic shelf seas, the mesozooplankton biomass is dominated by the arctic copepod
Calanus glacialis, but its boreal congeneric C. finmarchicus is expanding northwards. Even …

Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba, is very susceptible to harmful solar radiation because of
its unique genetic setup. Exposure occurs in spring to autumn during vertical diel migration …
