Adaptation to extreme environments: A review of Antarctic fish physiology
Abstract Having evolved in the chronically cold and thermally stable waters of the Southern Ocean (SO) for millions of years, Antarctic fish possess a suite of physiological specializations that enable them to survive at temperatures near the freezing point of seawater. Adaptations include the evolution of antifreeze proteins, modifications of membrane

The habitat use of ariid catfishes in coral reefs in northeastern Brazil
Abstract Ariidae species occur across a wide range of habitats from freshwater to fully marine environments and are typically associated with soft‐bottom substrates. However, they are sometimes associated with hard‐bottom substrates such as coral reefs, but such association is poorly documented.

Abstract Nutrient enrichment can alter the nutritional quality of the epilithic algal matrix (EAM) and modify the feeding environment of herbivorous and detritivorous reef fishes. However, wastewater inputs can also elevate ammonia concentrations, which may disrupt fish physiological processes, yet the effects of ammonia exposure on grazing activity ...

Abstract The shortfin mako (Isurus oxyrinchus) is a fast‐swimming pelagic shark of global ecological and socioeconomic importance, yet it is relatively understudied in temperate eastern Australian waters. This study investigated the trophic ecology of mako sharks using stable isotope analysis (SIA) of nitrogen (δ15N), carbon (δ13C) and sulphur (δ34S ...

Dive surveys and eDNA detect contrasting macroalgal community composition in Nova Scotia, Canada
Abstract Morphological identification of macroalgae can be time‐consuming and species may be difficult to observe, collect, or identify, preventing detailed study on the distribution and ecology of many species. The use of eDNA in species surveillance and biodiversity assessments has gained considerable traction in studying macroalgae, as it provides ...
