Extension of methods for jellyfish and ctenophore trophic ecology to large-scale research (2008, background): “Stable isotopes show that Aurelia spp. have a lower trophic level than other scyphomedusae (Kohama et al., 2006; Brodeur et al., 2008b), indicating use of microplankton by this genus, which blooms in eutrophic waters around the world.”
Interannual variability in the Northern California Current food web structure: Changes in energy flow pathways and the role of forage fish, euphausiids, and jellyfish (2012, background): “The large jellyfish also have a high degree of dietary overlap with forage fishes in the NCC (Brodeur et al., 2008; Suchman et al., 2008).”
Increasing jellyfish populations: trends in Large Marine Ecosystems (2012, background): “For example, the trend in the East Bering Sea LME was classified as an increase based on a regression analysis, but jellyfish in the Bering Sea declined dramatically after 2000 (Brodeur et al., 2008).”
Planktonic cnidarian distribution and feeding of Pelagia noctiluca in the NW Mediterranean Sea (2010, background): “Most pelagic cnidarians consume mostly copepods (Purcell, 1981, 1997; Purcell & Mills, 1988), and diet overlap between medusae and fishes have been documented (Purcell & Grover, 1990; Purcell & Sturdevant, 2001; Brodeur et al., 2008 ).”
