• Zooplankton and the Ocean Carbon Cycle. (2017, background): “The most commonly recorded jelly falls are medusae (Billett et al. 2006, Yamamoto et al. 2008, Sweetman & Chapman 2011), large colonial pyrosomes (Lebrato & Jones 2009, Lebrato et al. 2013b), and salps (Henschke et al. 2013, Smith et al. 2014).”
• Jellyfish fisheries in the Americas: origin, state of the art, and perspectives on new fishing grounds (2017, unknown): “…blooms of jellyfish that die and sink to the ocean floor (known as ‘jelly-falls’) have mainly been investigated for their role in the biological pump (Lebrato et al. 2012, 2013); however, it is becoming apparent that they may also be an important nutritional input for benthic animals (e.g.,…”
