The IceShark, an effective method for sampling plankton under sea ice
Abstract Seasonal sea ice plays a crucial role in shaping coastal ecosystem dynamics throughout the circumpolar region. Of particular interest to oceanographers is the ice‐ocean interface which functions as a multidimensional habitat, supporting both sympagic algae and pelagic phytoplankton in the under‐ice surface waters.

Marine benthic flora and fauna of Gourdon Bay and the Dampier Peninsula in the Kimberley region of North-Western Australia [PDF]
Surveys undertaken to characterise the marine benthic habitats along the Dampier Peninsula and further south at Gourdon Bay in the Kimberley region of Western Australia were augmented with epibenthic sled sampling of soft and hard bottom habitats.

Abstract Investigations of hydrostatic pressure effects on microbial enzymatic processing are challenging but critical for understanding element cycling in the world's oceans. In this study, we developed and tested a stainless‐steel pressure cell capable of withstanding up to 110 MPa of hydrostatic pressure (equivalent to ~ 11,000 m depth), featuring ...

Driver-pressure-impact and response-recovery chains in European rivers: observed and predicted effects on BQEs [PDF]
The report presented in the following is part of the outcome of WISER’s river Workpackage WP5.1 and as such part of the module on aquatic ecosystem management and restoration. The ultimate goal of WP5.1 is to provide guidance on best practice restoration

Effects of salinization on tropical freshwater wetland primary producers and aquatic invertebrates
Sea level rise is expected to transform coastal aquatic ecosystems world‐wide. The freshwater wetlands of tropical northern Australia are among the most biodiverse and productive ecosystems on the continent, but owing to high regional rates of sea level rise coupled with low‐lying land and large tides they are increasingly affected by saltwater ...

The effects of seasonality and parasitism on diet and habitat selection in the common periwinkle
The common periwinkle Littorina littorea is an ecologically important grazer, known for its strong influence on algal communities and its role in structuring ecosystems. It serves as the first intermediate host for several trematode species in the Baltic Sea, especially for the fluke Cryptocotyle lingua.
