Length-weight relationships of 55 mesopelagic fishes from the eastern tropical North Atlantic: Across- and within-species variation (body shape, growth stanza, condition factor)

Stephanie Czudaj et al.

Summary: This study provides estimates of length-weight relationships for 55 mesopelagic fish species based on data collected in the eastern tropical North Atlantic in 2015. The study reveals variations in body shape, growth patterns, and condition factors among different fish species, and these variations are influenced by geographical regions and environmental conditions.

Growth and reproduction in mesopelagic fishes: a literature synthesis

Paul E. Caiger et al.

Summary: The mesopelagic zone in the world's oceans is a vast area holding abundant vertebrates, but our understanding of the life history of these animals is limited. Current research is focused mostly on myctophids, with other groups lacking investigation. Research is concentrated in the northern hemisphere, with little coverage in the Indo-Pacific region and the poles.

Community structure of mesopelagic fishes constituting sound scattering layers in the eastern tropical North Atlantic

Stephanie Czudaj et al.

Summary: Mesopelagic sound scattering layers (SSLs) are mainly associated with deep-sea fish species of the families Myctophidae, Gonostomatidae, Sternoptychidae, and Phosichthyidae, which have gas-inflated swimbladders and perform nocturnal diel vertical migration. The study reveals regional and vertical variations in the mesopelagic fish community structure in the presence of the oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) in the eastern tropical North Atlantic. The analysis emphasizes the importance of non-DVM species in tropical SSL composition and indicates a gradient structure in the vertical community composition between different regions.
