Distribution patterns of micronektonic crustaceans (Decapoda, Euphausiacea, and Lophogastrida) in the tropical and subtropical Atlantic Ocean
Large pelagic crustaceans are a main component of the micronekton community in the deep-sea having an important role in the food webs and the biological carbon pump. However, they are scarcely studied in comparison to other groups such as mesopelagic fish. Here, we analyse day/night and bathymetric...
