Effects of temperature and light intensity on asexual reproduction of the scyphozoan, Aurelia aurita (L.) in Taiwan (2008, background): “…the proportion of ephyrae of total asexual reproduction (buds ? ephyrae) of other temperate species (Chrysaora quinquecirrha Desor, Moerisia lyonsi Boulenger, and A. labiata Chamisso & Eysenhardt) also increased in warm conditions (Purcell et al., 1999; Ma & Purcell, 2005a, 2005b; Purcell, 2007).”
Revision of the genus Chrysaora Peron & Lesueur, 1810 (Cnidaria: Scyphozoa) (2010, background): “Jellyfish outbreaks/blooms is a major topic in the biology of scyphomedusae (Mills 2001; Purcell 2005; Xian et al. 2005; Purcell et al. 2007; Uye 2008).”
Gelatinous plankton: irregularities rule the world (sometimes) (2008, background): “…such as global warming, eutrophication, overfishing (Mills 1995, CIESM 2001, Purcell et al. 2001, 2007, Daskalov 2002, Parsons & Lalli 2002, Purcell 2005, Tatsuki 2005) or the increase of available hard substrates (e.g. dams, artificial reefs, shells from bivalve aquaculture), enhancing…”
Effects of low salinity on settlement and strobilation of scyphozoa (Cnidaria): Is the lion’s mane Cyanea capillata (L.) able to reproduce in the brackish Baltic Sea? (2010, background): “Nevertheless, some hydrozoan and ctenophore species tolerate wide ranges of temperature and salinity and colonize brackish habitats (Mills & Vogt, 1984; Purcell et al., 2001; Ma & Purcell, 2005).”
End-To-End Models for the Analysis of Marine Ecosystems: Challenges, Issues, and Next Steps (2010, unknown): “Given the worldwide concerns about jellyfish blooms (Mills 2001; Purcell 2005) and how they alter the energy flow through the food web (Brodeur et al. 2002) and affect zooplankton community dynamics (e.g., Kremer 1979) and fish growth and survival (Purcell and Arai 2001), the representation of…”
A review and synthesis on the systematics and evolution of jellyfish blooms: advantageous aggregations and adaptive assemblages (2008, background): “…or estuaries and establishing a local population of polyps that respond to seasonal and annual changes in food, salinity, and temperature (Purcell, 2005), and quite different from apparent blooms arising from oceanographic events such as the occasional appearance of the large…”
Non-infectious gill disorders of marine salmonid fish (2011, background): “Purcell (2005) discussed how increasing temperatures and shifting isotherms promote reproduction of jellyfish and allow the expansion of species ranges northwards.”
Synergistic Effects of Climate and Fishing in a Marine Ecosystem (2009, background): “Because warmer temperatures also favor the growth and asexual production of cnidaria ( Purcell 2005 ) it is likely that they have also benefited from the increase in North 558 R. R. Kirby and others”
Prey landscapes help identify potential foraging habitats for leatherback turtles in the NE Atlantic (2007, background): “For gelatinous organisms in temperate neritic habitats, warm temperatures mostly induce large numbers of individuals and increase rates 238 Witt et al.: Identifying leatherback turtle foraging habitats of reproduction (Purcell 2005); whether such responses extend to pelagic environments is unknown.”
Jellyfish in ecosystems, online databases, and ecosystem models (2008, methodology): “This would remedy the situation, documented here, wherein jellyfish are either infrequently included in food web models, typically constructed using the Ecopath with Ecosim software, or included as a single functional group with the characteristic of an ‘average’ jellyfish.”
Widespread occurrence of the jellyfish Pelagia noctiluca in Irish coastal and shelf waters (2008, background): “However, the scyphozoan Pelagia noctiluca lacks a benthic polyp stage and this species consequently has a very broad distribution across ocean basins (Arai, 1997; Purcell, 2005).”
Have jellyfish in the Irish Sea benefited from climate change and overfishing? (2011, background): “Nevertheless, some time-series have shown major changes in jellyfish abundance and statistical links with climatic indices (Lynam et al., 2004; Purcell, 2005; Brodeur et al., 2008; Molinero et al., 2008; Gibbons & Richardson, 2009).”
Jellyfish populations in the Mediterranean Sea (2012, background): “Rather, inferences on the dynamics of jellyfish populations are usually based on the location, relative size, and timing of “blooms” (MILLS, 2001; PURCELL, 2005; BOERO et al. , 2008) .”
Increasing jellyfish populations: trends in Large Marine Ecosystems (2012, background): “Many jellyfish populations are known to fluctuate with oceanic climate (reviews in Purcell, 2005, 2012).”
