The ecological significance of giant clams in coral reef ecosystems (2015, background): “Nutrient cycling between zooxanthellae and their coral hosts is the key to both organisms’ success in oligotrophic coral reef environments (Muscatine and Porter, 1977) and similar cycling occurs between zooxanthellae and other organisms, such as zooxanthellate jellyfish (Pitt et al., 2009).”
Linkage between crustacean zooplankton and aquatic bacteria (2010, background): “Jellyfish carcasses can impact microbial processes, causing significant changes to nitrogen and oxygen dynamics in the surrounding environment (Pitt et al. 2009, West et al. 2009) as well as the composition and activity of the ambient bacterial community (Riemann et al. 2006, Titelman et al. 2006,…”
Extension of methods for jellyfish and ctenophore trophic ecology to large-scale research (2008, background): “Stable isotope and fatty acid analyses are being used to follow the transfer of the organic matter through the food webs and to understand trophic relationships of gelatinous species (reviewed in Pitt et al., 2008b).”
Jelly biomass sinking speed reveals a fast carbon export mechanism (2013, background): “During jelly-POM sedimentation, large amounts of nutrients are released, providing labile resources for bacterioplankton and microzooplankton (Titelman et al. 2006; Pitt et al. 2009; Tinta et al. 2010).”
Revision of the genus Chrysaora Peron & Lesueur, 1810 (Cnidaria: Scyphozoa) (2010, background): “, Purcell, J.E. & Stoecker, D.K. (1996) Feeding and growt by ephyrae of scyphomedusae Chrysaora quinquecirrha.”
The destruction of the 'animal forests' in the oceans: Towards an over- simplification of the benthic ecosystems (2013, background): “The ecosystems based on the animal forest are still not well understood, especially those questions related to carbon and nitrogen retention and recycling, being an excess of simplification an advantage for simpler organisms (Pitt et al., 2009).”
