During three cruises in the Mid Atlantic Ridge area in 2016 and 2017, we collected samples of mesopelagic species down to a depth of 600 m and analysed the chemical composition...

This dataset consists of lipid analysis, fatty acid analysis, and compound specific stable isotope analysis of δ13C values in fatty acids. These parameters were measured in...

Mesopelagic fish collected during 3 field campaigns in 2020 were analysed for their lipid content. The sampling was conducted on 5 main locations; 2 stations in the Western...

Net catches of cephalopods were obtained during the cruises POS320/2 (March 2005), MSM49 (November/December 2015) and WH383 (March/April 2015) off Cabo Verde at a total of 18...

The dataset contains 108 records of major and trace element concentrations measured on (eviscerated) whole bodies of meso- to bathypelagic fish (19 species), decapods (4...

The dataset contains 361 records of energy density values measured on (eviscerated) whole bodies of meso- to bathypelagic fish (49 species), decapods (4 species) and euphausiids...

Oceanic food webs are organized in a continuum from microbial to metazoan linked by trophic interactions. Assessment of the position of organisms in the food web, i.e., their...

Isotopic data are valuable to investigate species interactions and food web structure. This file compiles δ13C and δ15N values of various marine taxa; most of data correspond to...

The dataset presents the number of mesopelagic Decapoda collected during the CSIC-SUMMER survey carried out in October 2020 in five zones around the Iberian Peninsula: south of...

In this dataset, we included the abundance and biomass distribution of pelagic shrimps from off the Brazil coast (15ºS) to the Canary Islands (25ºN). Sampling was conducted in...

The pelagic tunicate Salpa thompsoni is a widespread cold-water metazoan and a major grazer of phyto- and microzooplankton in the Southern Ocean. Long-term time series and...

Knowledge on life history traits of mesopelagic fishes is still sparse. This dataset contains reproductive data of the myctophid Electrona risso (Cocco, 1829) and the...

Ecosystem models often use wet weights to parameterise biota disregarding their water content. This may be especially erroneous for gelatinous plankton, such as salps and...

This file contains data on number of mesopelagic fish collected during the CSIC-SUMMER survey carried out in October 2020 in five zones around the Iberian Peninsula: Balears and...

Mesopelagic fishes experience an extreme body transformation from larvae to adults. DNA barcoding has been useful in establishing phylogenetic relationships among mesopelagic...

This dataset contains the values of standard length, wet weight, and body mass-density of Cyclothone spp. measured during the SUMMER cruise (from 30th September to 18th October...

The values of carbon remineralisation were measured in juveniles/adults of 5 non-migratory bristlemouth fishes (Cyclothone spp.) and partial migrator (Argyropelecus hemigymnus)...

During three cruises in the Mid Atlantic Ridge area in 2016 and 2017, we studied Maurolicus muelleri (Mueller's pearlside) wet mass, length, sex and maturity stages per size class.

During three cruises in the Mid Atlantic Ridge area in 2016 and 2017, we studied the biomass of mesopelagic fish down to a depth of 600 m and identified and quantified the...

This file contains data on mesopelagic fish stomach content reported as the number of prey categories in each fish stomach and their carbon masses. These data come from samples...
