DOI: 10.1093/plankt/fbz071
Abstract: Copepod swimming behavior is governed by chemical and hydro-mechanical cues. The environment of copepods, however, is frequently impacted by anthropogenic activities, in particular increased levels of suspended sediment due to coastal development. To better understand… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0282380
Abstract: Short-term, acute warming events are increasing in frequency across the world’s oceans. For short-lived species like most copepods, these extreme events can occur over both within- and between-generational time scales. Yet, it is unclear whether… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/toxins15040287
Abstract: HABs pose a threat to coastal ecosystems, the economic sector and human health, and are expanding globally. However, their influence on copepods, a major connector between primary producers and upper trophic levels, remains essentially unknown.… read more here.
