The globally widespread adoption of Artificial Light at Night (ALAN) began in the mid‐20th
century. Yet, it is only in the last decade that a renewed research focus has emerged into its …

Fishes are the dominant vertebrates in the ocean, yet we know little of their contribution to
carbon export flux at regional to global scales. We synthesize the existing information on fish …

Mesobot, an autonomous underwater vehicle, addresses specific unmet needs for observing
and sampling a variety of phenomena in the ocean's midwaters. The midwater hosts a vast …

Artificial light at night is profoundly altering natural light cycles, particularly as perceived by
many organisms, over extensive areas of the globe. This alteration comprises the …

Bioluminescence spans all oceanic dimensions and has evolved many times—from bacteria
to fish—to powerfully influence behavioral and ecosystem dynamics. New methods and …

Increasing interest in the acquisition of biotic and abiotic resources from within the deep sea
(eg, fisheries, oil–gas extraction, and mining) urgently imposes the development of novel …

Abyssal mineral resource exploitation is receiving increasing attention in many countries.
The plume issues caused by deep-sea mining must be studied before commercial mining …

Anthropogenic activities and greater demands for marine natural resources has led to
increases in the spatial extent and duration of pressures on marine ecosystems. Remotely …

Through the advancement of observation systems, our vision has far extended its reach into
the world of fishes, and how they interact with fishing gears—breaking through physical …

The capability of animals to emit light, called bioluminescence, is considered to be a major
factor in ecological interactions. Because it occurs across diverse taxa, measurements of …
