We review present understanding of the spatial and temporal diet variability
(trophodynamics) of a range of pelagic marine top predators, at both early and adult life …

Marine microorganisms comprise a large fraction of ocean carbon and are central players in
global biogeochemical cycling. Significant gaps remain, however, in our understanding of …

Salps are gelatinous planktonic suspension feeders that filter large volumes of water in the
food‐dilute open ocean. Their life cycle allows periodic exponential growth and population …

We developed a one-dimensional model to estimate salp contributions to vertical carbon flux
at the Bermuda Atlantic Time-series Study (BATS) site in the North Atlantic subtropical gyre …

Pyrosomes are an important but often overlooked component of marine zooplankton
communities, with limited existing information regarding their ecological and trophic roles in …

The movement of trophic resources between and among ecosystems, referred to as cross‐
ecosystem subsidies, is a common phenomenon. In the marine environment, both adjacent …

Salps provide an important mechanism for energy transfer from primary producers to higher-
order consumers and they can also make a significant contribution to biogeochemical …

The marine habitat use of olive ridley sea turtles (Lepidochelys olivacea) from northeastern
Brazil was analyzed via stable isotope analysis (SIA). Blood (red blood cells and serum) …

The taxonomic composition of the thaliaceans was analyzed using 86 plankton samples
collected in autumn (expeditions: IV= 04/13 to 05/10 2012; VI= 05/09 to 06/12 2013) and …

The seasonal succession of species community structure, abundance and carbon biomass
of five zooplankton taxa (Copepoda, Euphausiacea, Chaetognatha, Amphipoda and fish …
