  2. Siphonophorae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siphonophorae

    Siphonophores are most often pelagic organisms, yet level species are benthic. [11] Smaller, warm-water siphonophores typically live in the epipelagic zone and use their tentacles to capture zooplankton and copepods. [11] Larger siphonophores live in deeper waters, as they are generally longer and more fragile and must avoid strong currents.

  3. Marine food web - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_food_web

    The pelagic food web, showing the central involvement of marine microorganisms in how the ocean imports nutrients from and then exports them back to the atmosphere and ocean floor. A marine food web is a food web of marine life. At the base of the ocean food web are single-celled algae and other plant-like organisms known as phytoplankton.

  4. Pelagic fish - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pelagic_fish

    A school of large pelagic predator fish (bluefin trevally) sizing up a school of small pelagic prey fish (). Pelagic fish live in the pelagic zone of ocean or lake waters—being neither close to the bottom nor near the shore—in contrast with demersal fish that live on or near the bottom, and reef fish that are associated with coral reefs.

  5. Yellowfin tuna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellowfin_tuna

    The yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) is a species of tuna found in pelagic waters of tropical and subtropical oceans worldwide.. Yellowfin is often marketed as ahi, from the Hawaiian ʻahi, a name also used there for the closely related bigeye tuna. [3]

  6. Grimothea planipes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grimothea_planipes

    Pelagic red crab (Grimothea planipes)Grimothea planipes usually feeds on protists and zooplankton, but will feed by filtering blooms of diatoms. [7]As the most abundant species of micronekton in the California Current, Grimothea planipes fills an important ecological niche converting primary production into energy that larger organisms can use. [8]

  7. Midwater trawling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midwater_trawling

    Midwater (pelagic) otter trawl 1: trawl warp, 2: otter boards, 3: longline chains, 4 hunter, 5: weights 6: headline with floats, 7: pre-net, 8: tunnel and belly, 9: codend Midwater trawling is trawling , or net fishing, at a depth that is higher in the water column than the bottom of the ocean.

  8. Lake ecosystem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_ecosystem

    In the pelagic zone, herbivores graze on periphyton and macrophytes or pick phytoplankton out of the water column. Carnivores include fishes that feed on zooplankton in the water column (zooplanktivores), insects at the water's surface, on benthic structures, or in the sediment ( insectivores ), and those that feed on other fish ( piscivores ).

  9. Benthic-pelagic coupling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benthic-pelagic_coupling

    Benthic-pelagic coupling are processes that connect the benthic zone and the pelagic zone through the exchange of energy, mass, or nutrients. These processes play a prominent role in both freshwater and marine ecosystems and are influenced by a number of chemical, biological, and physical forces that are crucial to functions from nutrient cycling to energy transfer in food webs.
