Benthic fauna of the northern Mid-Atlantic Ridge: results of the MAR-ECO expedition

Biodiversity Patterns and Processes on the Mid‐Atlantic Ridge

“…These instruments used optics and acoustics, and some were deployed for long periods to collect temporal data for certain taxa or selected features. Detailed accounts of technologies and methods and sampling strategies for the different taxa and functional groups were given by Wenneck et al (2008) , Gaard et al (2008) , and in many papers describing results of analyses (see, for example, several papers in Gebruk (2008a) and Gordon et al (2008) ). Those references also describe methods used in the post -cruise analyses of taxonomy and systematics, trophic ecology, and life -history strategies.…”

What thrives between the waves and beneath the tides? –Marine Biology Researchsails into its second decade

“…Outstanding among the many publishing highlights in the past 10 years are certainly the eight Thematic Issues that were realized in close collaboration with six excellent Coordinators and associated Guest Editors from France (Séret 2010), Germany (Buchholz et al 2013), Norway (Haug et al 2009(Haug et al , 2013Huse et al 2012;Skaala et al 2014) and Russia (Gebruk 2008;Gebruk & Priede 2013). Each of these very special issues features a timely research theme emerging from joint efforts, such as research projects, cruises, or dedicated meetings.…”
