Considering Harmful Algal Blooms
Problematic harmful algal bloom is wide and tenacious, upsetting estuaries, coasts, and freshwaters system throughout the ecosphere, alongside disturbing human health, social life as well as national economy. Particular environmental factors supports growth of algal blooms, temperature always is significant when speaking about water-ecosystem ...

Role of extracellular carbonic anhydrase in the polar diatom Fragilariopsis cylindrus
Summary Diatoms are major primary producers in productive polar oceans, where cold temperatures and high CO2 solubility raise questions as to whether they rely on the CO2‐concentrating mechanism (CCM) to saturate photosynthesis. Knowledge of CCM function will help better predict the sensitivity of diatom primary production to warming and acidifying ...

Plants synthesize ergothioneine, showing a link to abiotic stress
Various plants possess ergothioneine biosynthetic genes and can synthesize this antioxidant, where increased EGT levels under abiotic stress conditions indicate protective functions. Abstract Ergothioneine (EGT) is a sulphur‐containing histidine derivative and a potent antioxidant that exhibits beneficial effects on human health.

Restoration of coastal dunes following tropical storm events often requires renourishment of sand substrate dredged from offshore sources, although dredging has well‐described negative ecological impacts and high economic costs. As a potential solution, recycled glass sand (cullet) made from crushed glass bottles has been proposed as a potential ...

Abstract Introduction Natural recovery of disturbed marine ecosystems can take years, mainly because long‐lived, functionally important species are lost. To regain ecosystem services, the focus of estuarine restoration is shifting from biodiversity metrics to functional restoration.

Beyond Groups? Consociational Culture and the Representation of Cross‐Segmental Interests
Abstract In deeply divided societies, consociational power‐sharing ensures representation for ethnonational groups but raises questions about cross‐segmental interests. This paper explores “consociational culture,” arguing that consociational systems create a form of political culture which incentivises the use of group‐based categories and identities ...

ABSTRACT Taste and odour compounds (T&O), particularly 2‐methylisoborneol (2‐MIB) and geosmin, pose persistent challenges in drinking water treatment, as conventional methods often achieve limited removal. This study provides a comparative evaluation of five treatment strategies: activated carbon (AC) adsorption, sulfonic acid‐modified activated carbon

The impacts of biological invasions
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological
