Carbon export mediated by mesopelagic fishes in the northeast Pacific Ocean (2013, background): “It has also been found that if trophic efficiency is less than 13% there is not enough NPP in the western subarctic Pacific to support Neocalanus spp., copepods that are important prey of mesopelagic fishes (Kobari et al., 2003).”
A comparison of mesopelagic mesozooplankton community structure in the subtropical and subarctic North Pacific Ocean (2008, background): “Similarly, seasonal or ontogenetic vertical migrators 64 may also contribute to C export (Longhurst and Williams, 1992; Kobari et al., 2003; Kobari et 65 al., this issue).”
Mesopelagic zone ecology and biogeochemistry - a synthesis (2010, background): “At northern latitudes, ontogenetic vertical migration of copepod species results in seasonal mesopelagic peaks in their abundance (Kobari et al., 2003; Bonnet et al., 2005).”
Autotrophic picoplankton in mesozooplankton guts: evidence of aggregate feeding in the mesopelagic zone and export of small phytoplankton (2010, background): “OVM fecal matter-derived flux is hypothesized to account for ~15% of the total K2 sinking C flux at 1000 m (Kobari et al. 2003).”
Evidence for the grazing hypothesis: Grazing reduces phytoplankton responses of the HNLC ecosystem to iron enrichment in the western subarctic pacific (SEEDS II) (2007, background): “ponents of the copepod community, are considered mainly to graze on micro-sized organisms (Kobari et al., 2003) and micro-phytoplankton accounted for 27% of the total chlorophyll-a concentration (Fig.”
Grazing by the calanoid copepod Neocalanus cristatus on the microbial food web in the coastal Gulf of Alaska (2005, background): “Total carbon ingested in July was low, 5 mg C copepod day, but >100 mg C copepod day in April (Kobari et al., 2003).”
Impacts of ontogenetically migrating copepods on downward carbon flux in the western subarctic Pacific Ocean (2008, methodology): “Indeed, in the Oyashio region where a 328 massive phytoplankton bloom appeared, annual mean biomass of N. cristatus (2.3 g C m-2: Kobari 329 et al., 2003) was higher than that of N. plumchrus (1.1 g C m-2: Kobari et al., 2003) and E. bungii 330 (0.9 g C m-2: Shoden 2000).”
Zooplankton and the Ocean Carbon Cycle. (2017, background): “In the subarctic North Pacific, active transport by seasonal migration of Neocalanus spp. copepods (N. flemingeri, N. cristatus, and N. plumchrus) is comparably high, ranging from 2.0 to 4.3 g C m−2 y−1 below 150 m (Kobari et al. 2003, 2008).”
