Intense benthic grazing of phytoplankton in a coral reef (2009, methodology): “Similar CBLs above dense communities of benthic suspension feeders were found in both temperate communities (Frechette and Bourget 1985; Dolmer 2000; Ackerman et al. 2001) and coral reefs (Yahel et al. 1998, 2005).”
A test of the sponge-loop hypothesis for emergent Caribbean reef sponges (2018, methodology): “We used direct In-Ex methods (Yahel et al. 2005) combined with acoustic Doppler velocimetry to measure sponge pumping and geometric estimates of sponge volume to quantify the natural flux of detritus from unmanipulated individual sponges.”
In situ feeding and metabolism of glass sponges (Hexactinellida, Porifera) studied in a deep temperate fjord with a remotely operated submersible (2007, methodology): “A slow suction rate (,1 mL min21) insured no contamination of exhaled water with ambient water (Yahel et al. 2005), and pumping activity was verified with fluorescein-dyed seawater between samples.”
Selective Capture and Ingestion of Particles by Suspension-Feeding Bivalve Molluscs: A Review (2018, unknown): “In the second method, samples are taken directly from the inhalant and exhalant ﬂow produced by the animal and particle distribution determined (e.g., InEx method of Yahel et al. 2005).”
