Benthic algal community dynamics on Palmyra Atoll throughout a decade with two thermal anomalies
Coral reef algae serve many important ecological functions, from primary production to nutrient uptake and reef stabilization, but our knowledge of longer-term effects of thermal stress on algae in situ is limited.

ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

ABSTRACT Phosphorus (P) availability is strongly constrained in both acidic and calcareous soils due to fixation reactions, reducing nutrient‐use efficiency and driving excessive fertiliser inputs. This study develops and evaluates a series of chitosan–apatite–citrate (CAC) fertilisers prepared using four continuous‐flow manufacturing strategies: a ...
