Linkage between crustacean zooplankton and aquatic bacteria (2010, background): “Most copepods have a short gut passage time such that ingestion is tightly coupled with egestion (Dam & Peterson 1988, Besiktepe & Dam 2002).”
Influence of jellyfish blooms on carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus cycling and plankton production (2008, result): “The assimilation efficiencies recorded for jellyfish and ctenophores are greater than those measured for doliolids (C assimilation; 20–50%; Katechakis et al., 2004), but are similar to those observed for some copepods (30–80%; Katechakis et al., 2004; generally [70% Acartia tonsa Dana; Besiktepe & D”
Variable food absorption by Antarctic krill: Relationships between diet, egestion rate and the composition and sinking rates of their fecal pellets (2012, result): “faster-sinking pellets supports previous work (Cadée et al., 1992; Besiktepe and Dam, 2002), and may represent the ballasting effect of silicified diatoms (Ploug et al.”
Production of DOC by Calanus finmarchicus, C-glacialis and C-hyperboreus through sloppy feeding and leakage from fecal pellets (2003, background): “In addition, low assimilation efficiency has been shown for copepods grazing on diatoms (Besiktepe & Dam 2002).”
Copepod guts as biogeochemical hotspots in the sea: Evidence from microelectrode profiling of Calanus spp (2011, background): “Diatoms can cause lower assimilation efficiency and higher fecal pellet production in copepods (Besiktepe and Dam 2002), and may, therefore, not only stimulate the copepod to secrete more digestive fluid (hence, lower gut pH), but also generate more organic and inorganic remains in the gut than a…”
Bridging the gap between marine biogeochemical and fisheries sciences; configuring the zooplankton link (2014, background): “In mesozooplankton the gut passage time (equivalent to the food vacuole processing time in a protist) is much faster in absolute terms (e.g., 0.3 and 6 h, Besiktepe and Dam, 2002).”
Feeding by the heterotrophic dinoflagellates Gyrodinium dominans and G. spirale on the red-tide dinoflagellate Prorocentrum minimum (2004, methodology): “…on P. minimum), we also estimated grazing coefficients attributable to co-occurring dominant copepods Acartia spp. on P. minimum by combining field data on abundances of Acartia spp. and P. minimum with ingestion rates of the grazer on the prey obtained from the equation of Besiktepe & Dam (2002).”
Growth, feeding and ecological roles of the mixotrophic and heterotrophic dinoflagellates in marine planktonic food webs (2010, unknown): “(1): Houde and Roman (1987), (2): Besiktepe and Dam (2002), (3): Broglio et al. (2003), (4): Roman et al. (2006), (5): Cohen et al. (2007), (6): Liu and Wang (2002), (7): Huskin et al. (2000), (8): Jeong et al. (2001a), (9): Jeong et al. (2007c). **: Acartia omorii & A.”
Copepods as microbial hotspots in the ocean: effects of host feeding activities on attached bacteria (2005, background): “The actual amount of bacteria released by a zooplankter would depend on its feeding and defecation rates, which in turn are functions of food concentration, food type and temperature (Dam & Peterson 1988, Butler & Dam 1994, Besiktepe & Dam 2002).”
Zooplankton and the Ocean Carbon Cycle. (2017, background): “For the copepod Acartia tonsa, Besiktepe & Dam (2002) determined carbon-based AEs ranging from <10% to >95% for various types and concentrations of protistan prey.”
