Overwintering growth and development of larval Euphausia superba: an interannual comparison under varying environmental conditions west of the Antarctic Peninsula (2004, background): “Since chlorophyll concentrations are typically higher on-shelf than offshelf west of the Antarctic Peninsula during summer (Huntley and Brinton, 1991; Smith et al., 1996 ), on-shelf larvae may be in better condition to overwinter in this region.”
Lipids as markers of nutritional condition and diet in the Antarctic krill Euphausia superba and Euphausia crystallorophias during austral winter (2004, methodology): “Similarly low levels were observed by Stübing et al. (2003) in E. superba fed a copepod diet under experimental conditions, but they did find high levels of these acids were present in fecal strings produced after copepod feeding.”
The fat that matters: Soil food web analysis using fatty acids and their carbon stable isotope signature (2010, background): “Much more is known about the lipid composition and trophic markers in marine food webs than in terrestrial ecosystems (e.g. Kattner et al., 2003; Stübing et al., 2003; Stevens et al., 2004a,b).”
