Ecological correlates of extinction risk and persistence of direct-developing stream-dwelling frogs in Mesoamerica

Understanding the threats to wildlife across space and time is essential for developing effective conservation strategies. In Mesoamerica (i.e., the region that extends from Central Mexico to the most southern point in Panama) at least 40% ...

Submesoscale‐Permitting Physical/Biogeochemical Future Projections for the Main Hawaiian Islands

Abstract Global climate models provide useful tools to forecast large‐scale anthropogenic trends and the impacts on ocean physics and marine biology and chemistry. Due to coarse spatial resolution, they typically lack the ability to represe...

A macrozoobenthic data set of the Black Sea northwestern shelf

Abstract Benthic ecological data are crucial to study and manage ecosystems. On the one hand, abiotic and species data provide complementary information to identify habitats. On the other hand, trait data, describing taxon characteristics, ...

Composition, Demographic History, and Population Structures of Trichiurus

Sequences of the complete mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I gene were used to identify Trichiurus species and examine their population genetic structure and demographic history along the coast of China. Three Trichiurus species wer...

Some Examples of the Use of Molecular Markers for Needs of Basic Biology and Modern Society

Application of molecular genetic markers appeared to be very fruitful in achieving many goals, including (i) proving the theoretic basements of general biology and (ii) assessment of worldwide biodiversity. Both are provided in the present ...

Can resistant coral-Symbiodinium associations enable coral communities to survive climate change? A study of a site exposed to long-term hot water input

Climate change has led to a decline in the health of corals and coral reefs around the world. Studies have shown that, while some corals can cope with natural and anthropogenic stressors either through resistance mechanisms of coral hosts o...

Dynamic coastal pelagic habitat drives rapid changes in growth and condition of juvenile sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) during early marine migration

Migrating marine taxa encounter diverse habitats that differ environmentally and in foraging conditions over a range of spatial scales. We examined body (RNA/DNA, length-weight residuals) and nutritional (fatty acid composition) condition o...

Cyclodepsipeptides and Other O-Containing Heterocyclic Metabolites from Beauveria felina EN-135, a Marine-Derived Entomopathogenic Fungus

Bioassay-guided fractionation of a culture extract of Beauveria felina EN-135, an entomopathogenic fungus isolated from a marine bryozoan, led to the isolation of a new cyclodepsipeptide, iso-isariin D (1); two new O-containing heterocyclic...

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...

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...
