🎣⚠ Capturar peces que viven a más de 200 metros de profundidad puede tener consecuencias climáticas. ⬆⬇🐟Las migraciones diarias de las especies mesopelágicas transportan, al año, aproximadamente 5.000 millones de toneladas de equivalentes de CO2. https://t.co/55YVIpRF1b

💰Assessment of management and ecosystem services: Commercial fishing simulations indicate that the benefits of mesopelagic fish products do not outweigh the costs in climate regulation and biodiversity. The estimated average social cost is 19€ per ton of mesopelagic fish caught

A very special way to raise awareness of the importance of the #mesopelagic zone. Fantastic work! Congrats!🙌
Delighted to share 'Liquid Strata', an art-science collaboration about marine snow, with oceanographer @jOceanSan that took the form of an installation at the @FundacioMies pavilion in Barcelona during this years @SonarFestival with a sound intervention by Daphne Xanthopoulou.

New preprint by the team, led by @claver_cristina and part of @SUMMERH2020, where we examine the "Global distribution patterns of siphonophores across horizontal and vertical oceanic gradients" by reanalyzing the zooplankton metabarcoding data from the Malaspina expedition.

👀How can different mesopelagic fish species coexist when they have the same diet? 🍽️ Researchers from La Rochelle University and Ifremer have recently published a new paper answering this question. Check it out in this weeks blogpost! 🧐👇 https://t.co/3ALmTbbWNl
