    Linking vertical movements of large #pelagic predators with distribution patterns of #biomass in the open ocean pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2306

    "large predatory #fishes like #sharks, #tunas and #billfish make a surprising number of visits to the deep #ocean—particularly the #mesopelagic zone. This area, also called the ocean's #TwilightZone, has been overlooked as critical habitat for large #predator species"

    "#Sailfish and blue #marlins are some of the fastest fish in the ocean... how do they manage to find the sparsely dispersed #fish, #squid and #crustaceans in the ginormous #ocean? They use an invisible oceanic boundary created by a mass of water that contains almost zero #oxygen!"
