Marine biodiversity, biogeography, deep-sea gradients, and conservation
MJ Costello, C Chaudhary - Current Biology, 2017 - cell.com
The oceans appear ideal for biodiversity—they have unlimited water, a large area, are well
connected, have less extreme temperatures than on land, and contain more phyla and …

Influence of water masses on the biodiversity and biogeography of deep-sea benthic ecosystems in the North Atlantic
Circulation patterns in the North Atlantic Ocean have changed and re-organized multiple
times over millions of years, influencing the biodiversity, distribution, and connectivity …

Zonation of deep biota on continental margins
RS Carney - Oceanography and marine biology, 2005 - taylorfrancis.com
Pioneering deep-sea surveys established that the fauna of the continental margins is zoned
in the sense that individual species and assemblages occupy restricted depth bands. It has …

Depth and latitudinal gradients of diversity in seamount benthic communities
Aim Latitudinal and bathymetric species diversity gradients in the deep sea have been
identified, but studies have rarely considered these gradients across hard substratum …
