A single-column ocean biogeochemistry model (GOTM–TOPAZ) version 1.0

Recently, Earth system models (ESMs) have begun to consider the marine ecosystem to reduce errors in climate simulations. However, many models are unable to fully represent the ocean-biology-induced climate feedback, which is due in part to...

Improved chromosomal-level genome assembly and re-annotation of leopard coral grouper

Abstract Plectropomus leopardus, as known as leopard coral grouper, is a valuable marine fish that has gradually been bred artificially. To promote future conservation, molecular breeding, and comparative studies, we generated an improved h...

Response of Phytoplankton Assemblages From Naturally Acidic Coastal Ecosystems to Elevated pCO2

The interplay of coastal oceanographic processes usually results in partial pressures of CO2 (pCO2) higher than expected from the equilibrium with the atmosphere and even higher than those expected by the end of the century. Although this i...

Nitrifying niche in estuaries is expanded by the plastisphere

Abstract The estuarine plastisphere, a novel ecological habitat in the Anthropocene, has garnered global concerns. Recent geochemical evidence has pointed out its potential role in influencing nitrogen biogeochemistry. However, the biogeoch...

The avifauna of Ramanathapuram, Tamil Nadu along the Southeast coast of India: waterbird assessments and conservation implications across key sanctuaries and Ramsar sites

Background Wetlands, globally, face significant threats from human activities, and waterbirds, as key indicators of wetland health, are essential to maintaining ecological balance. Any long-term conservation measures should prioritize coord...

Toward an Environmental Education of Students at the Faculty of Natural Sciences, the University of Namibe

Context: Today, quite a few environmental problems require swift responses toward adjustment, mitigation, and sustainability. Accordingly, how could university students acquire effective environmental education so they can play their social...

Distribution of zooplankton biomass in the Shatt Al-Arab River and Shatt Al-Basra Canal, Southern Iraq

Zooplankton is the important component of aquatic ecosystems. These organisms are important biological indicator of water quality of aquatic ecosystem due to their response to the environmental changes. In this study, we investigated distri...

Nestedness of benthic diatom metacommunity in relation to species niche width and environmental variables in a large near-natural catchment

Insight into the non-random distribution patterns of species in different regions is a foundational aim of research in community ecology and biogeography. The nestedness pattern, which investigates changes in species composition and abundan...

Editorial: Programmed cell death in aquatic animals

Seabird Migration Strategies: Flight Budgets, Diel Activity Patterns, and Lunar Influence

Every year, billions of birds undertake extensive migrations between breeding and non-breeding areas, facing challenges that require behavioural adjustments, particularly to flight timing and duration. Such adjustments in daily activity pat...

Survival Strategy of an Emerging State beyond Warfare: Diplomatic Practices in Ilorin Emirate, Central Nigeria in the Nineteenth Century

The use of diplomacy as a statecraft was visible in precolonial Africa. It was primarily concerned with relations among states to achieve mutually beneficial agreements. Diplomacy in precolonial Africa included trade treaties, protection, s...

A contrastive analysis of articles in English and demonstratives in isiZulu

An analysis of the use of demonstratives in isiZulu (izabizwana zokukhomba) has shown that they go beyond the known deictic functions of demonstratives as used in other languages like English. In isiZulu, demonstratives tend to also denote ...

Dissecting the genetic basis of fruiting efficiency for genetic enhancement of harvest index, grain number, and yield in wheat

Abstract Background Grain number (GN) is one of the key yield contributing factors in modern wheat (Triticum aestivum) varieties. Fruiting efficiency (FE) is a key trait for increasing GN by making more spike assimilates available to reprod...
