Molluscs from a shallow-water whale-fall and their affinities with adjacent benthic communities on the Swedish west coast [PDF]
We conducted a species-level study of molluscs associated with a 5-m long carcass of a minke whale at a depth of 125 m in the Kosterfjord (North Sea, Sweden).

An evaluation of the efficacy of shell hash for the mitigation of intertidal sediment acidification
Our objectives were twofold: (1) to determine whether the addition of shell hash to intertidal sediments would mitigate porewater acidification and (2) whether its effectiveness was dependent on the type of sediment as described by organic matter (OM ...

Petrogenesis of diachronous mixed siliciclastic-carbonate megafacies in the cool-water Oligocene Tikorangi Formation, Taranaki Basin, New Zealand [PDF]
The Oligocene (Whaingaroan-Waitakian) Tikorangi Formation is a totally subsurface, lithostratigraphically complex, mixed siliciclastic-limestone-rich sequence forming an important fracture reservoir within Taranaki Basin, New Zealand.

Advancements in Characterizing Tenacibaculum Infections in Canada
Tenacibaculum is a genus of gram negative, marine, filamentous bacteria, associated with the presence of disease (tenacibaculosis) at aquaculture sites worldwide; however, infections induced by this genus are poorly characterized. Documents regarding the

Mussels with Meat: Bivalve Tissue-Shell Radiocarbon Age Differences and Archaeological Implications [PDF]
Local reservoir ages are often estimated from the difference between the radiocarbon ages of aquatic material and associated terrestrial samples for which no reservoir effect is expected.

Microplastic pollution in commercially important edible marine bivalves: A comprehensive review
Microplastics have become major pollutants in the marine environment and can accumulate in high concentrations, especially in the gut of marine organisms. Unlike other seafood, bivalves are consumed whole, along with their digestive systems, resulting in

Sources, determination, and safety assessment of cadmium in bivalves
Cadmium (Cd), a typical marine pollutant with a long half-life, is effectively monitored using bivalves as indicator organisms. Cd enters bivalves through their filter-feeding behavior.
