Journal ArticleDOI
Megafaunal variation in the abyssal landscape of the Clarion Clipperton Zone.
Erik Simon-Lledó,Erik Simon-Lledó,Brian J. Bett,Veerle A.I. Huvenne,Timm Schoening,Noëlie M. A. Benoist,Noëlie M. A. Benoist,Rachel M. Jeffreys,Jennifer M. Durden,Daniel O.B. Jones +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus on megafaunal ecology in the proposed conservation zone ‘Area of Particular Environmental Interest 6′ (study area centred 17°16′N, 122°55′W).
Journal ArticleDOI
Ecology of a polymetallic nodule occurrence gradient: Implications for deep-sea mining
Erik Simon-Lledó,Brian J. Bett,Veerle A.I. Huvenne,Timm Schoening,Noëlie M. A. Benoist,Daniel O.B. Jones +5 more
TL;DR: It is noted that successful conservation actions will likely require the preservation of areas comprising the full range of nodule cover and not just the low cover areas that are least attractive to mining, and in the context of potential seabed‐mining operations and the associated sustainable management and conservation plans.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recommendations for the Standardisation of Open Taxonomic Nomenclature for Image-Based Identifications
Tammy Horton,Leigh Marsh,Leigh Marsh,Brian J. Bett,Andrew R. Gates,Daniel O.B. Jones,Noëlie M. A. Benoist,Noëlie M. A. Benoist,Simone Pfeifer,Simone Pfeifer,Erik Simon-Lledó,Jennifer M. Durden,Leen Vandepitte,Ward Appeltans +13 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors recommend best practice for the use of open nomenclature (ON) signs applicable to image-based faunal analyses, which is particularly critical for deep-sea studies owing to the difficulties in reaching confident species-level identifications of unknown taxa.
Journal ArticleDOI
Landscape-scale spatial heterogeneity in phytodetrital cover and megafauna biomass in the abyss links to modest topographic variation
Kirsty J. Morris,Brian J. Bett,Jennifer M. Durden,Jennifer M. Durden,Noëlie M. A. Benoist,Noëlie M. A. Benoist,Veerle A.I. Huvenne,Daniel O.B. Jones,Katleen Robert,Katleen Robert,Matteo C. Ichino,Matteo C. Ichino,George A. Wolff,Henry A. Ruhl +13 more
TL;DR: The authors' observed variations in POM % cover, megafauna biomass, sediment total organic carbon and total nitrogen, sedimentology, and benthic boundary layer turbidity, all appear to be consistent with topographically enhanced current speeds driving these enhancements.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: A three-step selection process is proposed to ensure the best likelihood of site-specific work being useful for up-scaling activities, increasing the understanding of benthic biogeochemistry at the UK-shelf scale.
