Received Date: Dec 02, 2024 / Published Date: Dec 28, 2024
Abstract
Jellyfish populations have garnered increasing attention due to their rising numbers in various marine environments, presenting both ecological challenges and opportunities for research. One of the key methods for studying jellyfish populations is through the use of large-scale stow nets, which allow for efficient collection and analysis of these gelatinous organisms. This paper reviews the latest advancements in jellyfish research facilitated by stow net technology, highlighting innovations in net design, deployment strategies, and data collection techniques. By addressing the challenges of capturing fragile jellyfish species and improving sample accuracy, stow nets have revolutionized the ability to assess jellyfish distribution, behavior, and population dynamics. This review also discusses the impact of jellyfish blooms on marine ecosystems and human activities, while emphasizing the role of stow nets in expanding our understanding of jellyfish biology and their broader ecological significance. Through continued technological refinement, large-scale stow nets promise to be an indispensable tool in the ongoing study of gelatinous organisms.
