Book
Deep-Sea Biology: A Natural History of Organisms at the Deep-Sea Floor
John D. Gage,Paul A. Tyler +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the development of deep-sea biology, the physical environment, and methods of study are discussed, as well as the effects of man's effects on the deep sea.
Book ChapterDOI
Monitoring environmental variability around cold-water coral reefs: the use of a benthic photolander and the potential of seafloor observatories
J. Murray Roberts,Oliver C Peppe,Lyndsey Dodds,Duncan J L Mercer,William T. Thomson,John D. Gage,David Meldrum +6 more
TL;DR: The use of a benthic photolander to monitor the variability of the cold-water coral reef environment is described in this article, which provides a platform for time-lapse digital and film cameras to image the seabed while recording the current regime and optical characteristics (light transmission, backscatter and fluorescence).
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationships between oxygen, organic matter and the diversity of bathyal macrofauna
Lisa A. Levin,John D. Gage +1 more
TL;DR: Analysis of rarefaction curves for Indo-Pacific stations reveals that total macrobenthos, polychaetes, crustaceans and molluscs all exhibit reduced species richness within oxygen minimum zones (OMZs), however, representation under conditions of hypoxia varies among taxa, with polychaets being most tolerant.
Journal ArticleDOI
Macrobenthic community structure within and beneath the oxygen minimum zone, NW Arabian Sea
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated macrobenthic patterns of calcification and lifestyle within the oxygen minimum zone (OMZ, E[S 100 ], H′ and J′ across the transect; grain size and % TOC did not yield significant regressions.
Book
Marine Biodiversity: Patterns and Processes
TL;DR: Tickell et al. as mentioned in this paper discussed the importance of diversity in marine ecosystems and proposed a method to measure the value of marine biodiversity in its global context, using the Hiscock Index.
