Large predators frequent the open ocean where subsurface light drives visually based
trophic interactions. However, we lack knowledge on how predators achieve energy balance …

Introduction Mesopelagic fishes play a central role in the transfer of energy through open-
ocean food webs, particularly in the Southern Ocean where they are both important …

Increasing evidence suggests that mesoscale eddies have a strong influence on the
distribution and behavior of zooplankton and micronekton. However, the mechanisms …

El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is a crucial oceanographic phenomenon that leads to
interannual fluctuations in the climate and ecosystem productivity of tropical and subtropical …

In this study, we conducted an analysis of a multifrequency acoustics dataset acquired from
scientific echosounders in the West African water. Our objective was to explore the spatial …

Climate changes are posing remarkable impacts on marine fish and fisheries. Although
many studies have addressed the distributional effects of climate change on single fish …

The deep scattering layer (DSL), a stratum of the marine diel vertical migration (DVM)
organisms inhabiting the mesopelagic ocean, plays a crucial role in transporting carbon and …

Diurnal vertical migration (DVM) of mesozooplankton in the Deep Scattering Layer (DSL) of
the Indian seas is poorly studied. This cyclical vertical migration substantially controls the …

This study investigates the ecological effects of weirs on water quality and phytoplankton
communities in the South Han River (SHR) over a two-year period. By focusing on three key …

In recent years interest in mesopelagic fishes has grown due to their ecological significance
and economic potential. A major outstanding question is how the assemblage is potentially …
