Use of Invasive Rugulopteryx okamurae Beach Wrack as Habitat and Food by Talitrus saltator
ABSTRACT The introduction of non‐native algae into coastal waters has increased worldwide, causing a range of ecological and socio‐economic impacts. However, when stranded on beaches as wrack, these invasive algae can provide refuge and food for supralittoral organisms, potentially benefiting local fauna communities and beach functioning. In this study,

Microbial mats as shelter microhabitat for amphipods in an intermittent karstic spring
Microbial mats represent complex communities where cyanobacteria and diatoms as key organisms provide shelter for diverse assemblages of aquatic invertebrates, like the small stygophilous amphipod Synurella ambulans.

Near the western margin of the highly productive Labrador Sea, the Labrador Current creates a large and steep oceanographic front between the Arctic‐origin shelf waters and the Atlantic offshore waters (i.e. the Labrador Front), presumably segregating or accumulating plankton communities.

Nutrients, including vital organic compounds, vary in availability across ecosystems, with the potential to act as a source of selection for traits that increase nutrient acquisition and biosynthesis. Compared to freshwaters, marine ecosystems are richer in the omega‐3 long‐chain polyunsaturated fatty acid (n‐3 LC‐PUFA) docosahexaenoic acid (DHA ...

Abstract Polymetallic sulfide deposits produced at hydrothermal vent fields are targets for mining exploitation along the Mid‐Atlantic Ridge, threatening the functioning and resilience of vent ecosystems that provide multiple ecosystem services. Knowledge about connectivity between vents will inform conservation practices.
