Regulation of Precipitation on Soil Dissolved Organic Matter in Perturbed Mangrove Ecosystems

Ecosystem Health and Sustainability
Carbon sinks in mangrove soils play a critical role in climate change mitigation globally. Soil dissolved organic matter (DOM) is a major form of labile organic matter and influences carbon cycling in wetland ecosystems.

Effectiveness assessment of China's coastal wetland ecological restoration: A meta-analysis.

Science of the Total Environment
Due to the coastal wetland degradation caused by human activities and environmental changes, many coastal wetland restoration studies have been carried out in China to restore the degraded ecosystems, but it still lacks a comprehensive assessment of ...

Seawall effects in a coastal wetland landscape: spatial changes in soil carbon and nitrogen pools

, 2020
Seawalls are common features in coastal landscapes. They can alter ecological processes in coastal wetland ecosystems at multiple scales. Evaluation those ecological effects requires consideration of spatial characteristics of variables.

Rising seas could cross thresholds for initiating coastal wetland drowning within decades across much of the United States

Communications Earth & Environment
Accelerated sea-level rise is an existential threat to coastal wetlands, but the timing and extent of wetland drowning are debated. Recent data syntheses have clarified future relative sea-level rise exposure and sensitivity thresholds for drowning. Here,

XeraBorg: Neural Control of Tail‐Flick Escape for Backward Propulsion in Cyborg Crayfish

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This work presents the first controlled tail‐flick propulsion method for the cyborg Cherax quadricarinatus. Comprehensive experiments establish a foundational framework for using the crayfish's natural escape mechanism as a locomotion strategy, expanding its potential as an underwater and amphibious mobile robot.

Trends in metal(loid) bioaccumulation in aquatic organisms: A bibliometric analysis from 1963 to 2024

Ecological Indicators
Aquatic ecosystems demonstrate distinct dynamic characteristics and function as essential repositories for anthropogenic pollutants. Metal(loid)s can enter food chains through aquatic organism feeding behaviors, accumulate within organisms, and ...

Multi-omics analyses on Kandelia obovata reveal its response to transplanting and genetic differentiation among populations

BMC Plant Biology, 2021
Background Restoration through planting is the dominant strategy to conserve mangrove ecosystems. However, many of the plantations fail to survive. Site and seeding selection matters for planting.
