TL;DR: The unusual circumpolar distribution of krill reflects a balance between advection, migration, top–down and bottom–up processes, and the retention ofKrill in moderately productive oceanic habitats is a key factor in their high total production.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seasonal variability in the distribution of Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba, west of the Antarctic Peninsula
TL;DR: In this article, a unique Antarctic data set from four multidisciplinary cruises (spring, Nov 1991, summer, Jan-Feb 1993; fall, Mar-May 1993; winter, Aug-Sept 1993) was analyzed to provide a description of seasonal variability in the distribution and abundance of Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba, west of the Antarctic Peninsula.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phytoplankton spatial distribution patterns along the western Antarctic Peninsula (Southern Ocean)
Irene A. Garibotti,Maria Vernet,Martha E. Ferrario,Raymond C. Smith,Robin M. Ross,Langdon B. Quetin +5 more
TL;DR: Large-scale variability in phytoplankton structure is related to water column physical conditions and possibly iron availability, while mesoscale variability, as seen in coastal waters, is more likely due to seasonal succession of different algae groups.
Journal ArticleDOI
Episodic recruitment in Antarctic krill Euphausia superba in the Palmer LTER study region
Langdon B. Quetin,Robin M. Ross +1 more
TL;DR: The recruitment index was positively correlated with the absolute value of a seasonal El Nino/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) index, with strongest recruitment during the neutral or moderate periods of ENSO.
