    • Benthic Biodiversity, Carbon Storage and the Potential for Increasing Negative Feedbacks on Climate Change in Shallow Waters of the Antarctic Peninsula 

      Morley, Simon A.; SOUSTER, TERRI; Vause, Belinda J.; Gerrish, Laura; Peck, Lloyd S.; Barnes, David K. A. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-02-17)
      The importance of cold-water blue carbon as biological carbon pumps that sequester carbon into ocean sediments is now being realised. Most polar blue carbon research to date has focussed on deep water, yet the highest productivity is in the shallows. This study measured the functional biodiversity and carbon standing stock accumulated by shallow-water (<25 m) benthic assemblages on both hard and ...

    • Carbon and Lipid Contents of the Copepod Calanus finmarchicus Entering Diapause in the Fram Strait and Their Contribution to the Boreal and Arctic Lipid Pump 

      Tarling, Geraint A.; Belcher, Anna; Blackwell, Mayleen; Castellani, Claudia; Cook, Kathryn Barbara; Cottier, Finlo Robert; Dewar-Fowler, Victoria; Freer, Jennifer J.; Gerrish, Laura; Johnson, Magnus L.; Last, Kim S.; Lindeque, Penelope Kate; Mayor, Daniel J.; Parry, Helen E.; Stowasser, Gabriele; Wootton, Marianne (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-06-28)
      The boreal copepod Calanus finmarchicus sequesters substantial amounts of carbon (C) in the deep layers of the North Atlantic Ocean through their contribution to the “lipid pump.” This pump is driven by these zooplankton descending from the surface layers to spend prolonged periods at depth during which time they metabolise substantial lipid reserves and a fraction suffer mortality. C. finmarchicus ...
