Serving up some zooplankton squeee 🥰⁠ ⁠ Zooplankton can be subdivided into two major groups. Holoplankton (copepods and krill) spend their entire lives as plankton and thus provide major food sources for pelagic fisheries. Meroplankton (larvae of animals like barnacles, mussels, annelids, and fish) spend only part of their lives as plankton.⁠ ⁠ Copepods like the one in this video can be found in massive numbers across the world ocean. They play an important role in ocean food webs as predators—

Zooplankton are a crucial link in the marine food chain. By studying these tiny animals, scientists get a sense of the ecosystem’s health—an especially important factor for commercial fishing regions like New England. 🦐🐟🎣 So how do we know what’s out there? And how many? Assisted by AI, underwater imaging technologies identify and count zooplankton with remarkable speed and accuracy, giving scientists crucial insights into our changing ocean. Peer beneath the surface as WHOI biologists invest

This is what every trophy fishery is built on — zooplankton. In Episode 8 of Reset at the Slab Lab, Sarah Parvin , Natural Waterscapes and Natural Lake Biosciences team uncover one of the most important discoveries yet: a dense, high-quality zooplankton community has returned to the pond. We’re talking large-bodied, energy-rich species like Daphnids, Bosminids, and Copepods, the kind that fuel explosive fish growth. Just weeks earlier, the Slab Lab’s water column was dominated by cyanobacteria,

Zooplankton are vital to the marine food chain and global carbon cycle, consuming phytoplankton and transporting carbon to the deep ocean. However, warming seas are making them smaller and less nutritious, threatening marine ecosystems and global food security. The BIO-Carbon programme studies their role in carbon cycling to better predict and combat climate change impacts.

Another day, another invasive species! Learn about invasive zooplankton in the Great Lakes with SERC research technician Jana Maravi of our SERC Marine Invasions Research Laboratory. This tiny predator may not look like much, but when the spiny waterflea eats too many of the native zooplankton, it can cause a big hit to animals further up the food chain! SERC scientists continue to track the spiny waterflea and many other aquatic non-indigenous species in the Great Lakes. #NISAW 📽️ by Erin Mino

Zooplankton are animals that live all or part of their life as plankton, suspended and drifting in the water column. In the Arctic, and the rest of the world's oceans, zooplankton are important components of the food web. This video explains how scientists on the Hidden Ocean 2016: Chukchi Borderlands expedition used a plankton net to collect zooplankton in order to study these small animals and their role in the Arctic ecosystem.

In new research led by U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), analysis of nearly five months of continuous, high-resolution oceanographic measurements collected above a mesophotic #coral ecosystem on the upper insular slope off southwest #PuertoRico revealed a distinct set of “sound scattering layers”—essentially dense aggregations of small particles that scatter sound—occurring daily and across seasons above the reef. These layers, detected using acoustic backscatter, are formed primarily by swarms of
