Exudates from Zostera marina can regulate the growth of the harmful dinoflagellate Alexandrium minutum throughout the year and across intertidal levels, although their effect is highly variable, suggesting the role of seagrass meadows as natural controllers of harmful algal blooms and reinforcing the need to protect them.

We simulated a phytodetritus pulse at two temperatures to examine the response of Arctic benthic foraminifera. We observed species-specific feeding, with warming alone being secondary, implying that future warming could alter Arctic benthic carbon cycling by changing community composition and trophic roles.

Using Baited Remote Underwater Video Systems (BRUVS), this study by Grew et al. investigated whether estuarine ray species preferred cultivated oysters from commercial oyster leases over more natural prey (worms and pilchards). The study found rays did not preferentially interact with any of the prey items presented.

Combining fish egg DNA barcoding with eDNA metabarcoding reveals a more complete picture of fish biodiversity. Using both methods together complement each other—one tracking active spawning patterns while the other detects the broader fish community, including non-spawners. Together, they offer vital insights for fisheries management.

Identical survey methods can produce very different results in different locations. By comparing underwater visual census and stereo-DOV techniques across coral reefs in Indonesia and Honduras, we found that location, as well as survey design, can influence estimates of fish abundance, diversity, and community composition. This highlights the need for context-specific monitoring approaches.

Monitoring biodiversity is often challenged by shifting sampling efforts. Using the San Matías Gulf (Argentina) as a case study, our research offers a robust framework to standardize data and extract clear ecological signals without discarding valuable long-term datasets. Read how we bridge the gap in long-term monitoring!

Our 11-year study examined black abalone population dynamics across multiple ocean warming and subsequent cooling events, including the 2014-2016 Pacific marine heatwave. Despite warming-related population declines for both adults and juveniles, black abalone displayed recruitment pulses during periods of ocean cooling following warming, suggesting some resilience to climate change.

Drone-derived length measurements are used to describe seasonal group composition and reproductive patterns of two common dolphin subspecies off Southern California, USA. Findings provide important information on the ecology of the subspecies and highlight their vulnerability to anthropogenic disturbances at different times of the year.
