Fecal pellets (FP) are a key component of the biological carbon pump, as they can, under some circumstances, efficiently transfer carbon to depth. Like other forms of particulate …
Zooplankton vertical migration enhances the efficiency of the ocean biological pump by translocating carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) below the mixed layer through respiration and …
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 …
The exceptionally large population size and cosmopolitan biogeographic distribution that distinguish many–but not all–marine zooplankton species generate similarly exceptional …
Meganyctiphanes norvegica (M. Sars 1856), the northern krill, is the largest and most abundant euphausiid species in the northern hemisphere, where it represents a key …

The prototype of Meganyctiphanes norvegica diel vertical migration (DVM) behaviour comprises ascent around dusk, feeding near the surface at night, and descent at dawn …
Species' responses to climate change may vary considerably among populations. Various response patterns define the portfolio available for a species to cope with and mitigate …
Routine respiration rates in the South Georgia stock of Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) were measured to compare with previously published measurements on stocks from colder …
