Compilation of trophic positions of marine biota from the central and Northea...
Fractional trophic levels (i.e., trophic positions) describe the position of organisms within food webs and help define their functional roles in ecosystems (Odum & Heald,... -
Compilation of fatty acid composition of marine biota from the central and No...
Fatty acid (FA) composition has increasingly been used to estimate the dietary preference of marine organisms. Specific fatty acids and fatty acid ratios serve as trophic... -
Global compilation of stable carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N) isotope values...
Stable isotope analysis (SIA) has emerged as a valuable tool for understanding the trophic structure of the marine food web and gaining insights into trophic levels and niche.... -
Otolith morphological measures of stranding mesopelagic fishes in the Canary ...
Otolith of mesopelagic fishes stranded in the Canary Islands during June 2021 were measured. This dataset contains the standard length (SL, mm) of each species, as well as the... -
Diet composition of Atlantic bluefin tuna in the Iceland Sea and surrounding ...
We present data of Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus) diet published in Ólafsdóttir et al (2016). Each line corresponds to the observation of one prey individual in a... -
Diet composition of the Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus L.) collected ...
This dataset presents the diet composition of tuna during autumn migrations to the Iceland Basin south of the continental shelf for the year 1998 and 1999 (area Va and XII... -
Physical oceanography, abundance, migrant biomass and carbon flux data of mic...
Physical oceanography variables and carbon flux (for juveniles/adults of dominant mesopelagic migratory species) were determined during the CAPEGOLCA XIII and CAPEGOLCA XIV... -
Compilation of major and trace element concentrations in mesopelagic and othe...
Organisms accumulate major and trace elements (including metals) directly from the external environment and/or indirectly through diet. As such, their elemental composition can... -
Compilation of diet proportions of mesopelagic fish from the central and Nort...
Quantitative data on diet composition is key to understand prey–predator interactions and to parameterize ecosystem models. We compiled estimates of diet proportions from 26... -
Compilation of energy density of marine biota from the Northeast Atlantic and...
Information on the energy density of prey is critical for estimating food requirements and consumption by predators and modelling energy flux through food webs (Van de Putte et... -
Macroplankton and micronekton length/size frequencies from the Norwegian Sea ...
We provide here a curated set of data containing representative length/size measurements of key macroplankton and mesopelagic fish collected by a Macroplankton trawl (~6 m x 6 m... -
Macroplankton and micronekton trawl data from the Norwegian Sea 2019-2020
We provide here a curated set of data containing standardized catch biomasses and abundances of key macroplankton and mesopelagic fish taxonomically identified to species or... -
Abundance of larvae and transforming stages of mesopelagic fish collected at ...
This file contains data on numerical abundance of larvae and transforming stages of fishes collected during the CSIC-SUMMER survey carried out in October 2010 in five zones... -
Compilation of data to assess trophic interactions in mesopelagic food webs i...
Mesopelagic organisms play a critical role in marine ecosystems, channelling energy and organic matter across food webs and serving as the primary prey for many open-ocean... -
High resolution particulate organic carbon (POC) concentration and vertical f...
Particulate organic carbon (POC) concentration and POC vertical flux data were collected at site P3 in the South Atlantic during an austral spring bloom in 2017. Data were...
