Abstract The northern Barents Sea is a productive Arctic inflow shelf with a seasonal ice
cover and as such, a location with an efficient downward export of particulate organic matter …

The diatom frustule provides partial protection against copepod grazing. Whether the
defense is due to the cells being de‐selected or handled for so long that the grazers lose …

Human activities have substantially disrupted phosphorus (P) cycles in the ecosystem,
affecting producers and consumers along the food chain. To assess the ecological effects of …

Zooplankton consumption of aggregates, such as marine snow, is an important factor in
determining the efficiency of the biological carbon pump. However, the feeding rates of …

Abstract The eastern Indian Ocean is among the most oligotrophic regions in the world and
has been described as an ocean desert. Limited information exists on microbial community …

Marine food webs form the major component of the biological pump and play a central role
in the global carbon (C) cycle. Understanding the response of particular processes in marine …

A hypothesis about the formation of horizontal heterogeneities of zooplankton and
phytoplankton for a lake subjected to regular daily changes in wind currents has been …

While solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR) is known to impact zooplankton, little has been
documented on its impacts under elevated pCO 2. Here, we show that exposure to UVR …

We investigated the impact of sublethal thermal stress on physiological rates of the copepod
Paracartia grani, and explored the influence of previous thermal history on this response …

We assessed the effects of nutrient imbalanced diets on the feeding, reproduction and gross-
growth efficiency of egg production of the copepod Paracartia grani. The cryptophyte …
