Scavenging deep-sea amphipods: Effects of food odor on oxygen consumption and a proposed metabolic strategy

TL;DR: A metabolic strategy is proposed whereby scavenging amphipods efficiently utilize large episodic organic falls in the food-limited environment of the deep sea.
Journal ArticleDOI

Alkaline phosphatase activity and regulation in the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre

TL;DR: Alkaline phosphatase activity was measured at several stations in the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre in July 2008 and in a series of nutrient addition experiments, suggesting that DOP is an important resource for picoplankton nutrition.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact of otter trawling on an eastern Mediterranean commercial trawl fishing ground

TL;DR: In this article, a commercial fishing ground on the north coast of Crete, Greece, was studied for otter-trawling impacts for 11 months, starting before the trawling season and ending well after.
Journal ArticleDOI

Observations on the symbiosis with zooxanthellae among the tridacnidae (mollusca, bivalvia)

TL;DR: Analyses of photosynthesis-radiant flux relations in Tridacna maxima indicate that over 24 h the algae produce more oxygen than is consumed by the association, and estimates suggest that the algae may contribute more than 50% of the animals' metabolic carbon requirements.

Giant scallop feeding and growth responses to flow

TL;DR: The relationship between ambient seawater flow velocity and growth of the giant scallop Placopecten magellanicus Gmelin is shown to be a reverse ramp function with growth inhibition at flow velocities of > 10–20 cm · s−1.
