A path towards appropriate degradation experiments for assessing carbon sequestration potential of macroalgae

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, EarlyView.
We systematically reviewed literature on macroalgal degradation. To date, most degradation experiments are carried out in aquaria or shallow environments, span short timescales or rarely incorporate environmental gradients driving degradation. Degradation rates were higher in intertidal versus subtidal habitats, for pre‐treated algal tissue compared to

Contested Good City Stories from a North Chennai Littoral

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract This article investigates the wilful destruction of Ennore Creek, a littoral wetland system in north Chennai, Tamil Nadu, by a series of shifting statist good city imaginaries expressed in plans, research reports, environmental impact assessments, government orders and court judgements.

Shifting microbial communities in acidified seawaters: insights from polychaetes living in the CO2 vent of Ischia, Italy

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
The microbiome of polychaetes Syllis prolifera and Platynereis massiliensis complex changes in naturally acidified CO2 vents. A slight degree of acidification is associated with relevant changes in the microbial community, stressing the importance of investigations about the possible effects of ocean acidification on key biological and ecological ...

Reviewing seas of data: Integrating image‐based bio‐logging and artificial intelligence to enhance marine conservation

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Conservation of marine ecosystems can be improved through a better understanding of ecosystem functioning, particularly the cryptic underwater behaviours and interactions of marine predators. Image‐based bio‐logging devices (including images, videos and active acoustic) are increasingly used to monitor wildlife movements, foraging behaviours ...

Benthic Microbial community responses to pesticides in lake littoral zones

open access: yes, 2011
Herbicides contamination of lake ecosystems is characterized by mixture of several molecules at low concentration. Their effect on microorganisms, especially benthic communities, is not well known. With the view of assessing the ecological risk of herbicides for aquatic microorganisms, some models (Species sensitivity distribution-SSD, Independent ...

Sources of uncertainty in DNA metabarcoding of whole communities: Implications for its use in biomonitoring

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Advancements have been made in the use of DNA‐based methods for the detection of single species. However, the routine application of DNA‐based methods to monitor whole communities using a metabarcoding approach and derive ecosystem status continues to be limited.
