Coastal eutrophication caused by anthropogenic nutrient inputs is one of the greatest threats
to the health of coastal estuarine and marine ecosystems worldwide. Globally,∼ 24% of the …

Marine zooplankton comprise a phylogenetically and functionally diverse assemblage of
protistan and metazoan consumers that occupy multiple trophic levels in pelagic food webs …

The seasonal succession of plankton is an annually repeated process of community
assembly during which all major external factors and internal interactions shaping …

During the past several decades, high numbers of gelatinous zooplankton species have
been reported in many estuarine and coastal ecosystems. Coupled with media-driven public …

The atmospheric and deep sea reservoirs of carbon dioxide are linked via physical,
chemical, and biological processes. The last of these include photosynthesis, particle …

Measures to reduce eutrophication have often led to a more effective decline of phosphorus
(P) than nitrogen (N) concentrations. The resultant changes in riverine nutrient loads can …

Transparent exopolymer particles (TEP) are ubiquitous in marine and freshwater
environments. For the past two decades, the distribution and ecological roles of these …

Jellyfish are increasingly recognised as important components of the marine ecosystem, yet
their specific role is poorly defined compared to that of other zooplankton groups. This paper …

We assessed phytoplankton dynamics and its environmental control across the Canadian
High Arctic (CHA). Environmental (hydrographic, atmospheric, sea ice conditions) and …

We present the genome of the moon jellyfish Aurelia, a genome from a cnidarian with a
medusa life stage. Our analyses suggest that gene gain and loss in Aurelia is comparable to …
