1 Ocean sunfish as indicators for the ‘rise of slime’
David Grémillet, Craig R. White, Matthieu Authier, Ghislain Dorémus, Vincent Ridoux, Emeline Pettex  Current Biology  Volume 27, Issue 23, Pages R1263-R1264 (December 2017) DOI: /j.cub Copyright © 2017 Elsevier Ltd Terms and Conditions

2 Figure 1 Estimated ocean sunfish predation on jellyfish.
Based on density of sunfish obtained from aerial surveys and estimates of rates of consumption from energetics modelling (colour scale, in total kg of jellyfish consumed by sunfish, per day and per km2; colour scale range varies between graphs). Note sunfish mass occurrences in the Southwest Celtic Sea and the Gulf of Lion in summer. In winter, sunfish tend to be located farther offshore. Sunfish predation is not presented for the Eastern North Atlantic in winter because the limited number of observations (n = 22) precluded spatial modelling.
