Deep, diverse and definitely different: unique attributes of the world's largest ecosystem (2010, background): “…(of about 0.4◦C) and modified physico-chemical conditions over 2 years caused a significant change in benthic nematode biodiversity, a decrease of the functional diversity and species evenness, and an increase in the similarity to colder deep-Atlantic fauna (Danovaro et al., 2001, 2004).”
α-, β-, γ-, δ- and ε-diversity of deep-sea nematodes in canyons and open slopes of Northeast Atlantic and Mediterranean margins. (2009, background): “…et al. 2001, 2005, Gaston 2000, Lambshead et al. 2000, Gage 2004, Danovaro et al. 2008a), but the knowledge of the factors controlling bathymetric, latitudinal and longi- tudinal patterns is still very poor (Snelgrove & Smith 2002, Danovaro et al. 2004, Canals et al. 2006, Danovaro et al. 2008a).”
Potential impacts of climate change and greenhouse gas emissions on Mediterranean marine ecosystems and cetaceans (2008, background): “By modifying the physico-chemical characteristics of the deep waters, this temperature shift significantly and rapidly affected deep-sea nematode diversity (Danovaro et al., 2004).”
Man and the Last Great Wilderness: Human Impact on the Deep Sea (2011, background): “This led to changes in nematode biodiversity, community structure and ecosystem function [281,282], and the observed increase in food availability resulted in an increase in metazoan abundance [283,284].”
Exponential decline of deep-sea ecosystem functioning linked to benthic biodiversity loss. (2008, unknown): “Although the mechanisms causing changes in nematode biodiversity have not been completely clarified, it has been hypothesized that temperature changes had direct effects on nematode abundance and biodiversity by reducing metabolic rates and reproduction potential and favoring the nematode species wi”
