The Sea’s Weirdest Creatures, Now in ‘Staggering’ Detail 2020-06-05T04:00:00Z And when these delicate mucus homes get clogged, the tadpole-looking critters — called giant larvaceans — build a new one. Scientists learn how tiny critters make ocean ‘snot palaces’ 2020-06-03T04:00:00Z When their snot-houses become clogged from feeding, the larvaceans move out and the heavy bubbles sink. In the Ocean, It’s Snowing Microplastics 2022-04-03T04:00:00Z And when these delicate mucus homes get clogged, the tadpole-looking critters - called giant larvaceans - build a new one. Scientists learn how tiny critters make ocean ‘snot palaces’ 2020-06-03T04:00:00Z There are many sizes and species of larvaceans, also known as appendicularians, that are found in different depths in every ocean of the world. This fantastical sea creature helps remove planet-warming gases from the atmosphere 2020-06-07T04:00:00Z For example, the strange gelatinous marine invertebrates called larvaceans secrete a mucus ‘house’ for filter feeding, which they shed and rebuild every few hours. The backbone begins: a spine-tingling story 2018-07-02T04:00:00Z That, Katija said, essentially masks the house from whatever wants to eat the larvaceans. Scientists learn how tiny critters make ocean ‘snot palaces’ 2020-06-03T04:00:00Z The other study, which appears in the journal Science Advances, explains, in part, how microplastics are transported to the deep ocean by tiny marine invertebrates known as giant larvaceans. Ocean Life Eats Tons of Plastic—Here’s Why That Matters 2017-08-16T04:00:00Z That, Katija said, essentially masks the house from whatever wants to eat the larvaceans. Scientists learn how tiny critters make ocean ‘snot palaces’ 2020-06-03T04:00:00Z She recalled taking a jar underwater and feeding tiny, tiny beads to tiny larvaceans — watching how they moved through the house and counting how many got filtered in a given amount of time. This fantastical sea creature helps remove planet-warming gases from the atmosphere 2020-06-07T04:00:00Z These are so-called larvaceans that live inside snot “houses” used to filter seawater for food. Tiny bits of plastic get to the seafloor by hitching rides on snot palaces 2017-08-16T04:00:00Z Giant larvaceans beat their tails to pump seawater through these structures, which filter tiny bits of dead or drifting organic matter for the animals to eat. In Disposable Mucus Houses, These Zooplankton Filter the Oceans 2017-05-03T04:00:00Z The plastic was then “packed” into their fecal pellets or into the “houses” made of excreted mucus, in which the larvaceans live—and which sink rapidly into the deep ocean, carrying the plastic with them. Ocean Life Eats Tons of Plastic—Here’s Why That Matters 2017-08-16T04:00:00Z The remotely operated vehicle used in the study, alongside a floating larvacean. Tiny bits of plastic get to the seafloor by hitching rides on snot palaces 2017-08-16T04:00:00Z Swimming hundreds of feet beneath the ocean’s surface in many parts of the world are prolific architects called giant larvaceans. In Disposable Mucus Houses, These Zooplankton Filter the Oceans 2017-05-03T04:00:00Z They released tiny pieces of plastics — between 10 and 600 micrometers in diameter — in the water, to see whether the larvaceans ate them. Tiny bits of plastic get to the seafloor by hitching rides on snot palaces 2017-08-16T04:00:00Z When their filters get clogged, the larvaceans abandon ship and construct a new house. In Disposable Mucus Houses, These Zooplankton Filter the Oceans 2017-05-03T04:00:00Z Aside from providing transport, larvaceans are also consumed by a wide range of larger marine animals, thus spreading microplastics more thoroughly through the marine food web. Ocean Life Eats Tons of Plastic—Here’s Why That Matters 2017-08-16T04:00:00Z Analyzing footage of 10 giant larvaceans, Dr. Katija’s team estimated filtration rates based on how quickly particles were flowing into the animals’ chambers. In Disposable Mucus Houses, These Zooplankton Filter the Oceans 2017-05-03T04:00:00Z |
