Journal ArticleDOI
First observations of predation by New Zealand Greenshell mussels (Perna canaliculus) on zooplankton
TL;DR: The decreasing clearance rates with increasing size and development of prey, suggested that prey escape ability, related to body size and/or morphology, affected capture rates.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Global Plankton Diversity Monitoring Program

Richardson,Anthony J. Richardson,Karen V. Robinson,Kunio T. Takahashi,Hans M. Verheye,Willie Wilson +17 more
TL;DR: The Global Alliance of Continuous Plankton Recorders (GACS) as mentioned in this paper is a network of regional continuous plankton records (CPRR) surveys that provide taxonomic resolution, spatial scale and time-series data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identifying invertebrate invasions using morphological and molecular analyses: North American Daphnia 'pulex' in New Zealand fresh waters.
TL;DR: This study provides an additional example of how genetic techniques can be used for the accurate identification of non-indigenous taxa, particularly when morphological species determination is not possible, and the growth of global databases such as GenBank and Barcode of Life Datasystems will further enhance this identification capacity.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This paper conducted a near-global comparative analysis on marine copepods (97 830 samples, 388 taxa) to test Bergmann's rule, considering other potential drivers, and found that temperature better predicted size than did latitude or oxygen.
Journal ArticleDOI
Zooplankton in the Southern Ocean from the continuous plankton recorder: Distributions and long-term change
Matthew H. Pinkerton,Moira Décima,John A. Kitchener,Kunio T. Takahashi,Karen V. Robinson,R Stewart,Graham W. Hosie +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provided an analysis of zooplankton distributions in the circumpolar Southern Ocean based on samples collected by the international SCAR Southern Ocean Continuous Plankton Recorder Survey (SO-CPR).
