Moderate recreational oyster harvest has variable impacts on biophysical properties of reefs and reef‐associated fauna

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2023., 2023
Abstract Despite the popularity of recreational fishing, our understanding of the impacts of this type of harvest within marine ecosystems generally lags behind the well‐documented effects of commercial fisheries. Intertidal oysters serve as ecosystem engineers within otherwise soft‐bottom estuaries but may be disproportionately susceptible to harvest ...

Changes in water flow alter community dynamics in oyster reefs

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2023., 2023
Abstract Fluid (air or water) movements are key determinants of living systems from cellular to community levels of organization. Water flow can influence individual fitness and local population dynamics, but less is known about the collective response of natural communities to alteration in water flow because parameter responses to flow may be ...

First Zoea of a Rare Deep-sea Shrimp Vexillipar repandum Chace, 1988 (Crustacea, Decapoda, Caridea, Alpheidae), with Special Reference to Larval Characters of the Family [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
First zoea of a rare alpheid shrimp Vexillipar repandum Chace, associated with a deep-sea hexactinellid sponge, is described and illustrated based on laboratory-hatched material. The general morphology of the first zoea of V. repandum is similar to those

Considering the influence of land use/land cover on estuarine biotic richness with Bayesian hierarchical models

open access: yesEcological Applications, Volume 32, Issue 7, October 2022., 2022
Abstract The composition of land use/land cover (LULC) in coastal watersheds has many implications for estuarine system ecological function. Land use/land cover can influence allochthonous inputs and can enhance or degrade the physical characteristics of estuaries, which in turn affects estuaries' ability to support local biota.

Correct diagnosis of early zoeal stages of Athanas nitescens (Leach, 1814) (Decapoda, Caridea, Alpheidae) using laboratory-raised larvae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The morphology of the first two larval stages of Athanas nitescens (Leach, 1814), reared under laboratory conditions, is redescribed. The present data are compared with previous works, since a clarification of the morphological characters of the first ...

White spot syndrome virus host range and impact on transmission

open access: yesReviews in Aquaculture, Volume 14, Issue 4, Page 1843-1860, September 2022., 2022
Abstract White spot syndrome virus (WSSV), the etiological agent of white spot disease (WSD), is a significant pathogen affecting shrimp farming industry worldwide. White spot syndrome virus is a generalist virus mainly infecting decapod crustaceans. The aims of this review were to: (1) Re‐evaluate and update the status of reported WSSV host and vector

HydroMoth: Testing a prototype low‐cost acoustic recorder for aquatic environments

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 362-378, June 2022., 2022
In this paper, we demonstrate the current lack of commercially available low‐cost aquatic sound recorders. We then test a prototype device that is twenty times cheaper than currently available hydrophones. Technology like this will open up the field of aquatic bioacoustics to people and organisations who have never before been able to listen underwater.
