BORIS-2 – a benthic ecosystem model based on allometry Open
We present a model describing the population dynamics of benthic biota, feeding from a common resource that is supplied by a flux of sinking organic carbon arriving on the seafloor. By using allometric relationships for the physiological p…

Environmental management using a digital twin Open
Robust environmental management is based on evidence of ecosystem health and anthropogenic harms gleaned from successful environmental monitoring. Successful monitoring involves the synthesis of observations from a variety of sources to re…

Marked Variability in Distance‐Decay Patterns Suggests Contrasting Dispersal Ability in Abyssal Taxa Open
Aim We assess the role of spatial distance and depth difference in shaping beta diversity patterns across abyssal seascape regions. We measured the decrease of faunistic similarity across the northeast Pacific seafloor, to test whether spe…

Small topographical variations controlling trace maker community: Combining palaeo- and neoichnological data at the Porcupine Abyssal Plain Open
Ichnological research has generally assumed that abyssal plains are dominated by quiescent, homogenous environmental conditions. Thus, deep-sea trace fossil assemblage changes have been usually linked to significant spatial and temporal en…

Comparison of rosette-shape traces in abyssal terrains: Environmental and faunal implications Open
Biogenic traces (lebensspuren) result from the activity of benthic organisms on and within the seafloor and are a common feature of deep-sea environments. Rosette-shape traces (RSTs), also referred to as spoke burrows, are a commonly obser…

First in-situ monitoring of sponge response and recovery to an industrial sedimentation event Open
Assessment of risks to seabed habitats from industrial activities is based on the resilience and potential for recovery. Increased sedimentation, a key impact of many offshore industries, results in burial and smothering of benthic organis…
