Review of jellyfish trophic interactions in the Baltic Sea

چکیده

Despite the diversity and oftentimes large biomass of jellyfish in marine systems, their ecological role remains poorly understood. We here provide first systematic review studies on trophic ecology Baltic Sea (a regional system under strong multiple global anthropogenic pressures). In total, we identified 57 peer-reviewed publications, with notable taxonomic bias towards two species (Aurelia aurita; non-indigenous Mnemiopsis leidyi) spatial five areas (Bornholm Basin, Kiel Bight, Kertinge Nor, Lim- Gullmarsfjord). The evidence for diverse roles as predators competitors other jellyfish, zooplankton fish species. combination, also highlight potentially impacts via top-down (grazing) bottom-up (nutrient excretion) effects, but also, spatio-temporal variability magnitude these depending occurrence blooms. Studies prey fish, seabirds or mammals, benthic systems food-falls, were limited lacking Sea, despite increasing focus topics globally. Improved understanding temporal (seasonal, inter-annual, long-term) blooms corresponding would more spatio-temporally variable Sea. A broader coverage, inclusion taxa under-studied early life history stages, well implementation continuation long-term data series represent important steps this goal.

Trophic interactions among three elasmobranch species coexisting in the Oman Sea: implications for resource partitioning

In this study, trophic interactions were studied among three elasmobranches including Iago omanensis, Rhinobatos punctifer and Torpedo sinuspersici coexisting in the depth ranging from 50 to 100 meters in the Oman Sea (Sistan and Balochistan waters). A total of 238 specimens were collected using industrial bottom trawlers of ‘FERDOWS’ during spring and summer,2014 and their stomach contents wer...

Sea ice in the Baltic Sea e A review

Although the seasonal ice cover of the Baltic Sea has many similarities to its oceanic counterpart in Polar Seas and Oceans, there are many unique characteristics that mainly result from the brackish waters from which the ice is formed, resulting in low bulk salinities and porosities. In addition, due to the milder climate than Polar regions, the annual maximum ice extent is highly variable, an...

Increased freshwater discharge shifts the trophic balance in the coastal zone of the northern Baltic Sea

Increased precipitation is one projected outcome of climate change that may enhance the discharge of freshwater to the coastal zone. The resulting lower salinity, and associated discharge of both nutrients and dissolved organic carbon, may influence food web functioning. The scope of this study was to determine the net outcome of increased freshwater discharge on the balance between autoand het...
