Micronekton distribution in the southwest Pacific (New Caledonia) inferred from shipboard-ADCP backscatter data
2020, Deep-Sea Research Part I: Oceanographic Research PapersCitation Excerpt :Previous studies have demonstrated a positive impact of eddies on primary production (Chelton et al., 2011; Gaube and McGillicuddy, 2017; McGillicuddy et al., 2007) and some impacts on zooplankton (Goldthwait and Steinberg, 2008; Hauss et al., 2016; Lebourges-Dhaussy et al., 2014). The relationship with micronekton is less clear and sometimes contradictory or specifically related to observed eddies (Behagle et al., 2014; Brandt, 1983; Griffiths and Wadley, 1986; Sabarros et al., 2009). Further studies to determine how eddies affect backscatter and micronekton should include specific metrics to eventually propose a typology.
Bait attending fishes of the abyssal zone and hadal boundary: Community structure, functional groups and species distribution in the Kermadec, New Hebrides and Mariana trenches
2017, Deep-Sea Research Part I: Oceanographic Research PapersCitation Excerpt :Differences in productivity, standing crop and phytoplankton size distribution across a front will have effects up the food chain (Baird et al., 2008). On the Kermadec Trench side of the front more nitrogen crosses the thermocline and is available to phytoplankton (Ellwood et al., 2013), a longer residence time also allows phytoplankton growth to deplete nutrients and develop not only a higher and distinct phytoplankton standing stock, but also larger zooplankton size classes (Baird et al., 2008; Ellwood et al., 2013) and distinct pelagic fish and crustacean fauna (Griffiths and Wadley, 1986). Griffiths and Wadley (1986) found that pelagic fishes from the New Hebrides Trench (northern) side of the front were able to enter the Kermadec (southern) side but the front appeared to act as a barrier to northward movement, as appears the case in the current study.
Three-dimensional distribution of fish larvae in a cyclonic eddy in the Gulf of California during the summer
2013, Deep-Sea Research Part I: Oceanographic Research PapersCitation Excerpt :The biological structure within mesoscale eddies is a product of both the initial entrainment of zooplankton (including fish eggs and larvae) from the source waters of the eddy and the evolution of these assemblages over time (Griffiths and Wadley, 1986; Mackas et al., 2005).
The Coral Sea. Physical Environment, Ecosystem Status and Biodiversity Assets.
2013, Advances in Marine BiologyCitation Excerpt :There are > 350 species of fish, crustaceans and squid in the micronekton in the Coral Sea (Valerie Allain, unpublished data). This micronekton is distinct from the nearby Tasman Sea fauna (Griffiths and Wadley, 1986). Flynn (2012) identified a Coral Sea biogeographic region based on lanternfish (Myctophidae) distribution, coinciding with Condie and Dunn’s (2006) biogeographic boundary at ~ 25° S, which also functions as a boundary for demersal fishes (Last et al., 2005).
Cross-basin heterogeneity in lanternfish (family Myctophidae) assemblages and isotopic niches (δ <sup>13</sup>C and δ <sup>15</sup>N) in the southern Tasman Sea abyssal basin
2012, Deep-Sea Research Part I: Oceanographic Research PapersCitation Excerpt :Lanternfish assemblage composition and distribution are influenced by the distribution of water masses in the Tasman Sea. In the northern and central Tasman Sea, lanternfish species dominance in the East Australian Current (EAC), the predominant western boundary current in the region, or warm-core eddies of the Tasman Front differs from that in the offshore oceanic environment (Brandt, 1981, 1983; Griffiths and Wadley, 1986; Young et al., 2001). In the southern Tasman Sea, assemblages of micronekton (to 400 m depth) associated with the EAC could be distinguished from those associated with Subantarctic Mode Water (SAMW), but not from the Subtropical Convergence (STC) (Young et al., 1996b).
Analysis of southeast Australian zooplankton observations of 1938-42 using synoptic oceanographic conditions
2011, Deep-Sea Research Part II: Topical Studies in OceanographyCitation Excerpt :The cruises also included extensive physical oceanographic measurements that are archived in the World Ocean Database and hundreds of unpublished fisheries observations. From 1945 to the present day there have been a number of zooplankton sampling programs that have quantified a greater range of organisms (Kott, 1957; Tranter, 1962) for a longer period (Kott, 1957) or been part of more intensive process studies (Tranter et al., 1983; Griffiths and Wadley, 1986; Dela-Cruz et al., 2002) than the Warreen cruises. Nonetheless, the zooplankton observations on the Warreen cruises provide a unique data set because of (1) the detailed physical observations undertaken at each biological sampling location, (2) the total number of stations was large relative to more recent programs, and (3) the focus, almost 70 years ago, on gelatinous zooplankton whose abundance appears to be increasing globally as a result of human-induced stresses such as fishing, eutrophication, and climate change (Hay, 2006; Richardson et al., 2008).
