Conserved rhodolith microbiomes across environmental gradients of the Great Amazon Reef

Science of The Total Environment, 2020
The Great Amazon Reef System (GARS) covers an estimated area of 56,000 km2 off the mouth of the Amazon River. Living rhodolith holobionts are major benthic components of the GARS. However, it is unclear whether environmental conditions modulate the rhodolith microbiomes. Previous studies suggest that environmental parameters such as light, temperature,

Unexpected richness of reef corals near the southern Amazon River mouth

Coral Reefs, 1999
Manoel Luis Reefs (00° 52’ S, 44° 15’W),located 180 km north of Sao Luis, offMaranhao State, represent the northernmostoutpost of the Brazilian reef coral fauna, andthe closest well-developed reefs to theAmazon River mouth (Figure 1). In July1998, during a reef fish survey along theBrazilian coast, we found a surprising richness of corals and other ...

Water column and bottom gradients on the continental shelf eastward of the Amazon River mouth and implications for mesophotic reef occurrence

Journal of Marine Systems, 2021
Abstract Continental margin sedimentation represents the terrestrial-marine geological transition. Coarser coastal sediments usually transition to fine-grained sediments across the shelf as the energy level decreases. As the distance from the continental source of terrigenous sediments increases, the mid-shelf mud belt transitions to a seaward ...

The Amazon‐Orinoco Barrier as a driver of reef‐fish speciation in the Western Atlantic through time

Journal of Biogeography, 2022
AbstractAimThe Amazon‐Orinoco plume is the major biogeographical barrier between the Great Caribbean and the Brazilian Province. No study has so far addressed the influence of this barrier in a broad chrono‐phylogenetic context. Here, we evaluate the effects of the Amazon‐Orinoco plume barrier on the patterns of diversification of Western Atlantic reef

Sandy reefs of Sabellaria wilsoni (Polychaeta: Sabellariidae) as ecosystem engineers for meiofauna in the Amazon coastal region, Brazil

Marine Biodiversity, 2014
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of ecosystem engineering caused by reefs of Sabellaria wilsoni (Polychaeta: Sabellariidae) on the meiofauna community of Algodoal Island, in the state of Amazonas, Brazil. Two types of sandy reefs (ball and platform structures) as well as the surrounding sandy sediments of two distinct beaches ...
