Summary: Temporal and spatial heterogeneity in the distribution of cladocerans in lakes is influenced by abiotic and biotic factors. The diel vertical and horizontal migrations of cladocerans were studied in two deep lakes in the Czech Republic, revealing differences in distribution patterns due to macrophyte cover and fish assemblages. Temporal variations and diurnal deficits in cladoceran assemblages were observed in both lakes.

Summary: Vertical behavior, such as diel vertical migration (DVM) and swarming, is widespread among zooplankton. In the Norwegian Sea, synchronized DVM and large near-surface swarms were observed in the zooplankton community. The zooplankton community was concentrated in the upper 20 meters in calm weather but retreated to greater depths in the presence of increased near-surface turbulence, indicating synchronized schooling behavior.

Summary: Diel vertical migration (DVM) is a behavior observed in zooplankton worldwide, influencing biogeochemical cycling and prey availability. This study focuses on the second-order variability in DVM timing, which can help identify factors influencing migration timing and demonstrate changes in DVM behaviors. The findings highlight the importance of considering seasonal variability and context-specific parameters when studying DVM behaviors.

Summary: The production of highly toxic monomethylmercury (MeHg) is unevenly distributed in the water column. The role of water column heterogeneity, especially zooplankton grazers, in mercury (Hg) cycling is still not well understood. This study found a significant association between the presence of zooplankton and the concentrations of dissolved total Hg (DTHg) and total Hg (THg) in the water. Results suggest that the heterogeneity of biotic factors, including phytoplankton and zooplankton, plays a key role in the cycling of total Hg and MeHg in boreal lakes.

Summary: Records from moored Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers (ADCP) provide new insights into the dynamics of deep scattering layers (DSL) and diel vertical migration (DVM) of mesopelagic biomass in the southern Norwegian Sea, with seasonal variations and optical conditions influencing the activity of pelagic and mesopelagic species in the region.

Summary: Understanding the diel vertical migration patterns of zooplankton is important for biological pumping and pelagic food webs. However, limited knowledge exists about the DVM patterns of zooplankton with different functional traits. This study used a trait-based approach to investigate the vertical distributions of zooplankton in the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre, and found that different functional groups exhibited distinct DVM patterns.

Summary: This study developed an automated, quantitative method for detecting diel vertical migration (DVM) using 2D cross-correlation. The method showed better performance than previous methods and had a high detection rate of 88%. This method provides a robust and efficient way to analyze DVM behaviors in ocean environments.

Summary: The study observed a previously undescribed phenomenon, where an acoustic scattering layer with a daytime depth of 300 m in the subpolar Northeastern Pacific Ocean underwent rapid, high-frequency vertical migrations significantly correlated with cloud-driven variability in surface photosynthetically available radiation.

Summary: Partial diel vertical migration (DVM) in Daphnia populations does not depend on individual size or genetic polymorphism, and the mechanisms maintaining this behavior are unclear. Observational approaches have shown that intraspecific diversity in body hemoglobin concentration may play a role in maintaining partial DVM.

Summary: Vertical migration behavior among zooplankton includes both diel vertical migration and seasonal vertical migration, controlled by ambient irradiance and seasonal environmental deterioration respectively. These migrations play a significant role in the vertical transport of organic carbon to deeper waters (biological carbon sequestration) and in the buffering of global climate change.

Summary: Ocean dynamics play a crucial role in shaping the structure of pelagic ecosystems by driving nutrient income and subsequent trophic interactions. However, fine-scale studies on the biophysical interactions along depth are limited. In this study, we assessed the vertical structure of oceanographic variables and the distribution of acoustic biomass to improve our understanding of these relationships. The results highlight the importance of chlorophyll-a, oxygen, current, and stratification as drivers for the distribution of sound scattering biota, with their relative importance varying depending on the area, depth range, and diel cycle.

Summary: The optical chain and logger (OptiCAL) is an autonomous ice-tethered observatory equipped with multiple light sensors for mapping the variation of light with depth. It can cover a high dynamic range of under-ice light levels and produce realistic values compared to modeled surface irradiance. The raised light levels at specific depths associated with nearby leads in the ice highlight the importance of depth-resolved light measurements.

Summary: The daily vertical migrations of fish and other metazoans contribute significantly to the carbon sequestration by the biological pump. Using a game-theoretic food-web model, we estimate global carbon fluxes and sequestration by fish and zooplankton. The carbon sequestered by fish and multicellular zooplankton is conservatively more than 50% of the estimated global total and has a longer sequestration timescale than previously reported.

Summary: Through studying the seasonal and diel changes of the zooplankton community in Comau Fjord, it was found that zooplankton biomass was highest in summer and lowest in winter, while abundance peaked in spring. Copepods were identified as the most important group in terms of abundance and biovolume.

Summary: Active acoustic scattering techniques are suitable for synoptic studies of zooplankton and fish distributions, especially for documenting diel vertical migrations. Measurements made in the Northwest Atlantic Ocean in August 2011 revealed a regular diel vertical migration phenomenon along study transects. Different regions showed variations in acoustic backscattering and the presence of non-migrating layers at different depths.

Summary: The KRM model has been used for fishery acoustics for more than 20 years, but its coherent version may not provide stable and robust predictions in field applications. An incoherent KRM model is proposed, which is independent of the exact knowledge of body-swimbladder acoustic interactions and provides more stable and less sensitive predictions.
