Towards a greater understanding of pattern, scale and process in marine benthic systems: a picture is worth a thousand worms (2003, background): “An influential study that contributed to this change of thought was the work of Billett et al. (1983). Using an epibenthic sledge mounted with a time-lapse camera system (Bathysnap), the detrital layer on the seafloor in the Porcupine Seabight (NE Atlantic) was monitored for a period of approximatel”
Diversity of the arctic deep-sea benthos (2011, background): “Other common Arctic deep-sea benthic taxa also dominate in other areas of the world’s deep sea, for example the well-studied NE Atlantic Rockall Trough (Pain et al. 1982; Tyler et al. 1982; Billett et al. 2001).”
Deep, diverse and definitely different: unique attributes of the world's largest ecosystem (2010, background): “…NE Atlantic) between 1994 and 1997, where a population explosion of the holothurianAmperima rosea has been documented and related to changes in reproductive output resulting from changes in the quality and quantity of phytodetrital flux from the surface (Billett et al., 2001; Wigham et al., 2003).”
A boom–bust phylum? Ecological and evolutionary consequences of density variations in echinoderms (2009, background): “3A; Billett et al. 2001).”
Food web structure of the benthic community at the Porcupine Abyssal Plain (NE Atlantic): a stable isotope analysis (2001, unknown): “From the Bathysnap observations, its abundance reached up to 6000 ind. hectare 1 (Billett et al., 2001).”
The deep-sea floor ecosystem: current status and prospects of anthropogenic change by the year 2025 (2003, background): “However, no clear temporal change in organic-carbon supply is evident from time-series sediment trap data for the PAP, although there is considerable interannual variability (Lampitt et al. 2001).”
Community structure of epibenthic megafauna in the Chukchi Sea (2009, background): “Oceanogr Mar Biol Annu Rev 38:189–256 Piepenburg D, Brandt A, Juterzenka Kv, Mayer M, Schnack K, Seiler D, Witte U, Spindler M (2001) Patterns and determinants of the distribution and structure of benthic faunal assemblages in the northern North Atlantic.”
