Early life stages of fish (eggs and larvae) are particularly vulnerable with mortality rates of up
to 99% recorded for a large number of species. High mortality rates result from the limited …

Hypoxia is an ever increasing threat to aquatic systems. While fluctuating levels of dissolved
oxygen (DO) can be a natural phenomenon, hypoxia caused by eutrophication and organic …

Dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration in the water column is an environmental parameter
that is crucial for the successful development of many pelagic organisms. Hypoxia tolerance …

The fossil record is the primary source of data used to study predator-prey interactions in
deep time and to evaluate key questions regarding the evolutionary and ecological …

Abundances of fish populations can vary over time by orders of magnitude, and five‐to‐10‐
fold variability is usual. The variability is recorded on time scales ranging from millennial to …

Fishes employ many and diverse strategies to increase oxygen transfer from the
environment to their tissues and/or avoid problems associated with hypoxia. Some of these …

Hypoxia is a phenomenon occurring in marine coastal areas with increasing frequency.
While hypoxia has been documented to affect fish activity and metabolism, recent evidence …

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 …

Climate change can have a pronounced impact on the physiology and behaviour of fishes.
Notably, many climate change stressors, such as global warming, hypoxia and ocean …

Representatives of gelatinous zooplankton are increasingly reported in large numbers, with
more than 1000 species worldwide, including Cnidaria, Ctenophora and Thaliacea, often …
