Abstract
• Octopods are dominant players of the benthic megafauna of the Weddell Sea over large depth ranges • Largest database of Southern Ocean Octopods in situ observations allows distribution, behavioural and diversity studies • The slopes of the Weddell Sea receive organic input by various types of food falls • Differences in octopod abundance and species composition between different sampling location
