Experimental deep-sea deployments reveal diverse Northeast Pacific wood-boring bivalves of Xylophagainae (Myoida: Pholadidae) (2007, background): “Although turbellarian flatworms had been considered to be absent from the deep sea (Herring, 2002), 10-month-old deployments at Cascadia Basin supported 51.6 (Baby Bare) and 73.4 (ODP) flatworms per m2; after 24 months, flatworm density at Wuzza Bare reached 386.7 per m2.”
Catchability of pelagic trawls for sampling deep-living nekton in the mid-North Atlantic (2011, background): “Another source of attraction is the animals in the trawl itself: codend feeding by active predators such as cephalopods is known (Herring, 2002).”
Dimorphism, parasitism, and sex revisited: modes of reproduction among deep-sea ceratioid anglerfishes (Teleostei: Lophiiformes) (2005, background): “…far the most species-rich vertebrate taxon within the bathypelagic zone, containing more than twice as many families and genera and more than three times the number of species as the Cetomimoidei, the next most species-rich bathypelagic vertebrate taxon (see Paxton, 1998: 163; Herring, 2002: 232).”
Macrofauna associated with echiuran burrows : A review with new observations of the innkeeper worm, Ochetostoma erythrogrammon Leuckart and Ruppel, in Venezuela (2005, unknown): “…possibly Ikedidae) keep their trunk inside the burrow and extend their sometimes extraordinarily long proboscis - up to 300 or more times the trunk length (e.g., to 1.5 m in some species, Herring 2003) - out of the burrow to collect surficial sediment and organic particles near the burrow opening.”
Deep, diverse and definitely different: unique attributes of the world's largest ecosystem (2010, background): “The deep-sea pelagic encompasses over 1 billion (1 × 109) km3 (Herring, 2002), with animals and microbes growing, feeding and reproducing throughout that volume (Robison, 2008).”
The ups and downs of benthic ecology: considerations of scale, heterogeneity and surveillance for benthic-pelagic coupling (2003, background): “The flux of living organisms, both downwards and upwards is affected by a range of diel, seasonal and ontogenetic migrations which may overlap spatially to such an extend that they can be thought of as providing a ladder of migrations linking the organisms on the seafloor with those at the surface (”
Cold-water coral growth in relation to the hydrography of the Celtic and Nordic European continental margin (2008, background): “For example, seamounts and canyons are areas with pronounced vertical relief with hard substrata providing ideal settling sites for corals, often associated with a strong current regime and therefore low sediment deposition (Herring 2002).”
An empirical model for estimating aquatic invertebrate respiration (2010, background): “The relationship to water depth is nonlinear, when present (Childress et al. 1990; Herring 2002; Drazen & Seibel 2007; Seibel & Drazen 2007), i.e. log(MSR) vs. log(D) appears to be the appropriate linearization.”
Benthic foraminifera as trophic links between phytodetritus and benthic metazoans: carbon and nitrogen isotopic evidence (2008, background): “Among the measured samples in the present study, the heavi- est δ15N signature were found in ophiuroids at Stn SB. Ophiuroids are known to have a variety of feeding habits, including predation and scavenging, as well as deposit- and suspension-feeding (Herring 2002).”
Mesopelagic zone ecology and biogeochemistry - a synthesis (2010, background): “into the light organs of certain fishes (Herring, 2002).”
A review and synthesis on the systematics and evolution of jellyfish blooms: advantageous aggregations and adaptive assemblages (2008, background): “, 1999), which eliminates the need for benthic habitat for polyps, and with year-round continuous production of relatively few gametes (Larson, 1986), consistent with small overall population densities and low biomass of prey in the deep sea (Herring, 2002).”
A history of recent advancements on Nephrops norvegicus behavioral and physiological rhythms (2008, background): “Both are produced by the scattering and the absorption exerted by the water column body on traveling photons (Herring 2003).”
Extreme food webs: Foraging strategies and diets of scavenging amphipods from the ocean’s deepest 5 kilometers (2007, unknown): “2.1 in Herring 2002).”
