The littoral zones around archipelagos are highly productive coastal habitats that serve as biodiversity hotspots and provide valuable ecosystem services that are different from those of the pelagic and profundal zones.

In a close future, Mediterranean rivers will support strong disturbances due to climate changes, with inexorable consequences for their fauna. The invertebrate biodiversity of the Cèze River (South of France) was studied in a karstic area.

ORNATODELLA ANAN, A NEW YPRESIAN ROTALIID BENTHIC FORAMINIFERAL GENUS FROM PAKISTAN [PDF]
Ornatodella Anan is introduced here to elucidate a new Ypresian Rotaliid benthic foraminiferal genus, which represents a transition from between the two benthic foraminiferal genera: Ornatanomalina Haque, 1956 (with the spiraling ribs in the end stage of

Habitat heterogeneity and its influence on benthic biodiversity in oxygen minimum zones [PDF]
AbstractOxygen minimum zones (OMZs; midwater regions with O2 concentrations <0.5 ml l−1) are mid‐water features that intercept continental margins at bathyal depths (100–1000 m). They are particularly well developed in the Eastern Pacific Ocean, the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal.

Facies analysis and paleoenvironmental reconstruction of the Burdigalian to Langhian Asmari Formation, outcropping in the Khorram Abad Anticline, in the north-west of the Zagros Basin allow us to interpret the carbonate ramp history during the Early ...

Microbial interactions in marine water amended by eroded benthic biofilm: A case study from an intertidal mudflat [PDF]
In shallow macrotidal ecosystems with large intertidal mudflats, the sediment-water coupling plays a crucial role in structuring the pelagic microbial food web functioning, since inorganic and organic matter and microbial components (viruses and microbes) of the microphytobenthic biofilm can be suspended toward the water column.

New high-tech flexible networks for the monitoring of deep-sea ecosystems [PDF]
Increasing interest in the acquisition of biotic and abiotic resources from within the deep sea (e.g. fisheries, oil-gas extraction, and mining) urgently imposes the development of novel monitoring technologies, beyond the traditional vessel-assisted, time-consuming, high-cost sampling surveys.

Variation in fatty acid content among benthic invertebrates in a seasonally driven system
At temperate latitudes where seasonal changing environmental conditions strongly affect the magnitude, duration and species composition of pelagic primary production, macrobenthic organisms living below the photic zone rely on the sedimentation of ...
