Biogeographical Regions and Climate Change: Lanternfishes Shed Light on the Role of Climatic Barriers in the Southern Ocean Open
To predict the spatial responses of biodiversity to climate change, studies typically rely on species‐specific approaches, such as species distribution models. In this study, we propose an alternative methodology that investigates the coll…

Large differences in the distribution of pelagic biomass as a result of sonar frequency choice Open
Recent efforts to understand the global distribution of pelagic fauna have primarily relied on 38 kHz sonar observations, using water-column backscatter as a proxy of biomass. However, backscatter gradients across ocean provinces are not a…

Fine scale zooplankton distribution across the North Balearic Front during late spring Open
Observations, models and theory have suggested that ocean fronts are ecological hotspots, generally associated with higher diversity and biomass across many trophic levels. Nutrient injections are often associated with higher chlorophyll c…

Status, Change, and Futures of Zooplankton in the Southern Ocean Open
In the Southern Ocean, several zooplankton taxonomic groups, euphausiids, copepods, salps and pteropods, are notable because of their biomass and abundance and their roles in maintaining food webs and ecosystem structure and function, incl…

Habitat model forecasts suggest potential redistribution of marine predators in the southern Indian Ocean Open
Aim Climate change will likely lead to a significant redistribution of biodiversity in marine ecosystems. We examine the potential redistribution of a community of marine predators by comparing current and future habitat distribution proje…

Productivity and Change in Fish and Squid in the Southern Ocean Open
Southern Ocean ecosystems are globally important and vulnerable to global drivers of change, yet they remain challenging to study. Fish and squid make up a significant portion of the biomass within the Southern Ocean, filling key roles in …
