Deep-sea coral distribution on seamounts, oceanic islands, and continental slopes in the Northeast Atlantic [PDF]

, 2007
A database of deep-water (\u3e 200 m) antipatharians, scleractinians, and gorgonians has been assembled for the NE Atlantic to determine what their distribution and diversity was before coral habitats became heavily impacted by bottom fishing gear ...

Fecal pellet packaging enhances marine carbon sequestration

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Fecal pellets produced by marine zooplankton contribute substantially to transporting biologically fixed carbon from the sunlit sea surface into deeper water layers. Their occurrence and composition are often heterogeneous, and pellets may undergo various changes while sinking, making it difficult to quantitatively assess their mechanisms of ...

Coral Disease and Health Workshop: Coral Histopathology II [PDF]

, 2007
The health and continued existence of coral reef ecosystems are threatened by an increasing array of environmental and anthropogenic impacts. Coral disease is one of the prominent causes of increased mortality among reefs globally, particularly in the ...

Dynamic Sinking and Surface‐Area Based Decay Modeling Reduce Estimates of Gelatinous Zooplankton‐Mediated Carbon Export to the Deep Sea

Global Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 40, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Gelatinous zooplankton (GZ) have been proposed as a potentially important but largely overlooked contributor to the biological carbon pump. However, estimates of GZ‐derived carbon transfer efficiency to the ocean floor reflect uncertainties in key parameters that govern carbon export, leading to contrasting interpretations of the role of GZ in

Dietary resilience of coral reef fishes to habitat degradation

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 3, Page 397-417, March 2026.
Metabarcoding of gut contents shows that two common benthic‐feeding reef fishes with different feeding stratgies—a butterflyfish (Chaetodon capistratus) and a hamlet (Hypoplectrus puella)—shift diets on degraded reefs. These shifts mirror contrasting patterns in body condition: butterflyfish showed strong individual variation, whereas condition was ...

Nuevo registro de un hidroide (Hydroidolina: Leptothecata: Sertularioidea) en un banco somero de la Alta Guajira, Caribe colombiano

Ciencia e Ingeniería
El hidroide Sertularelloides cylindritheca (Allman, 1888), se identificó durante la Expedición Colombia BIO “Lamuuna Neimalu’u” realizada en abril del 2023, como un nuevo registro para el mar Caribe colombiano. El espécimen fue colectado a 17,5 metros de

Conservation and co-option in developmental programmes: the importance of homology relationships [PDF]

, 2005
One of the surprising insights gained from research in evolutionary developmental biology (evo-devo) is that increasing diversity in body plans and morphology in organisms across animal phyla are not reflected in similarly dramatic changes at the level ...

Grounds, Beds, and Reefs of the Endangered Coral Cladocora caespitosa With Description of the Tremiti Reef

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
This study provides an overview of the distribution of the three ecosystem types formed by Cladocora caespitosa and describes newly discovered ones at Tremiti Islands (Adriatic Sea, Italy). The spatial distribution, biometry, size structure, and conservation status of the Cladocora formations have been investigated and compared at the Mediterranean ...

Information-theoretic signatures of biodiversity in the barcoding gene

, 2018
The COI mitochondrial gene is present in all animal phyla and in a few others, and is the leading candidate for species identification through DNA barcoding.
