Species distribution models describe spatial variability in mesopelagic fish abundance in the Southern Ocean

IntroductionMesopelagic fishes play a central role in the transfer of energy through open-ocean food webs, particularly in the Southern Ocean where they are both important predators of zooplankton and a key prey group for many higher predators. However, they are notoriously difficult to sample, whic...
