Taxonomic Complexity and Conservation Implications of Mediterranean Mesophotic Rhodolith Beds

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Rhodolith beds are bioconstructions formed by coralline algae (Rhodophyta: Corallinophycidae) and are ecologically important worldwide because they provide habitats that support diverse biocenoses. However, conservation efforts are limited by gaps in our knowledge of their spatial distribution and species composition.

Depositional and stratigraphic evolution of a Permian megalake system: Implications for seiche‐influenced models

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 2, April 2026.
During the Late Permian, the rise of the Gondwanides Belt trapped marine waters, giving birth to a vast megalake. This lake shifted between overfilled, balanced‐fill and underfilled stages that are recorded by high‐frequency accommodation changes, while meteorological seiches shaped the sedimentary dynamic and produced heterolithic beds.

Historical data reveal extirpation of foundation species and kelp forest community deborealization in a coastal hotspot

open access: yesEcological Applications, Volume 36, Issue 3, April 2026.
Abstract Climate change is restructuring ecological communities globally, yet the impacts are often underestimated or poorly resolved due to the lack of historical baselines. In temperate oceans, biologically diverse and socioeconomically important kelp forests are the marine ecosystem most threatened by climate change.

Genetic Structure of Blue Ling, Molva dypterygia, in the North Atlantic

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
The blue ling, a deep‐water fish in the Northeast Atlantic, has experienced severe population declines since the 1970s due to intensive fishing. Genetic analysis across fjords and offshore regions using 61 SNPs revealed weak but significant differentiation, rejecting the idea of a single randomly mating population.
