The trophodynamics of marine top predators: current knowledge, recent advances and challenges
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 …

Claims that anthropogenic stressors facilitate jellyfish blooms have been amplified beyond the available evidence: a systematic review
The perception that anthropogenic stressors cause jellyfish blooms is widespread within the
scientific literature and media but robust evidence in support of these claims appears scarce …

Gelatinous zooplankton‐mediated carbon flows in the global oceans: a data‐driven modeling study
Among marine organisms, gelatinous zooplankton (GZ; cnidarians, ctenophores, and
pelagic tunicates) are unique in their energetic efficiency, as the gelatinous body plan allows …

Massive consumption of gelatinous plankton by Mediterranean apex predators
Stable isotopes of carbon and nitrogen were used to test the hypothesis that stomach
content analysis has systematically overlooked the consumption of gelatinous zooplankton …

[HTML][HTML] Role of jellyfish in the plankton ecosystem revealed using a global ocean biogeochemical model
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 …

[HTML][HTML] Current-oriented swimming by jellyfish and its role in bloom maintenance
Cross-flows (winds or currents) affect animal movements [1–3]. Animals can temporarily be
carried off course or permanently carried away from their preferred habitat by drift depending …

Jellyfish detritus supports niche partitioning and metabolic interactions among pelagic marine bacteria
Background Jellyfish blooms represent a significant but largely overlooked source of labile
organic matter (jelly-OM) in the ocean, characterized by a high protein content. Decaying …

Leatherback turtle movements, dive behavior, and habitat characteristics in ecoregions of the Northwest Atlantic Ocean
Leatherback sea turtles, Dermochelys coriacea, are highly migratory predators that feed
exclusively on gelatinous zooplankton, thus playing a unique role in coastal and pelagic …
