Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Novel ecosystems, where environmental conditions have been fundamentally altered from a historic norm, require nontraditional approaches to restoration. Suisun Marsh, located within California's San Francisco Estuary (SFE), is a novel, brackish water wetland complex, where managers have begun restoring tidal connectivity to ...

Could Lake Joyce have acted as a long-lived proglacial refugium in Antarctica’s McMurdo Dry Valleys?
Arctic, Antarctic, and Alpine ResearchLake Joyce of the McMurdo Dry Valleys (MDV), Antarctica, contains an endemic copepod population (Diacyclops joycei) that has not been identified from apparently suitable habitats in nearby lakes.

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction River regulation schemes generally led to changes in riverine assemblage composition and their trophic status, which often is reflected in a general loss or decrease of characteristic species and a concomitant increase or dominance of generalist species.

Ecology of Freshwater Fish, Volume 35, Issue 4, October 2026.ABSTRACT Parasites affect hosts in interaction with the entire ecological community. This is particularly evident for trophically transmitted parasites, such as Dibothriocephalus tapeworms, which infect multiple intermediate fish hosts, potentially reducing their fitness and suitability for human consumption.

The Plasticity of the Antioxidant Defence System of Coastal Zooplankton Communities
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.In this photo, a copepodite Acartia spp. is represented with Vorticella epiphytes. This photo was taken with the help of a PlanktoScope, which belongs to the Hellenic Centre for Marine Research. Photographer: Andriana Koutsandrea. ABSTRACT Zooplankton are expected to enhance their antioxidant defences and activate stress‐related biomarkers in response ...

Diel and Artificial Light Effects on Nearshore Communities Revealed by eDNA Metabarcoding
Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 4, July‐August 2026.Environmental DNA revealed rapid, taxon‐specific community reorganization across diel and artificial light conditions in a nearshore marine ecosystem. Distinct responses among trophic groups indicate that artificial light at night reshapes predator–prey interactions and community structure within 30 min of exposure.

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 7, July 2026.Abstract Zooplankton plays an important role in the biological carbon pump, and zooplankton biomass and community structure can have a large influence on the sedimentation/remineralization balance of the water column. We investigated the potential effects of zooplankton community structure and eco‐physiology on the export and attenuation of vertical ...

Primary productivity coupled to oxic methane production in coastal waters of southern China
Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 4, July 2026.Abstract Oxic methane (CH4) production (OMP) occurs in diverse oxygenated surface waters worldwide. However, phytoplankton‐driven OMP in natural marine environments remains poorly documented. During a research cruise in the highly productive southern East China Sea, we measured OMP by incubating phytoplankton‐rich surface waters and found that CH4 ...

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 4, July 2026.Abstract The contribution of sinking fecal pellets to the biological carbon pump depends on pellet properties, producer abundance, and the depth and timing of pellet production, which can be modulated by diel vertical migration. We examined diel variability in zooplankton fecal pellet flux in the subarctic Northeast Pacific using two image‐based tools:

Temperature‐driven diet shift in an invasive omnivorous crustacean feeding on plankton
Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 4, July 2026.Abstract Global warming alters the physiology of ectotherm consumers, potentially making their diets more herbivorous. However, the relevance and generality of these changes remain poorly understood in a multispecies context. To address this critical knowledge gap, we experimentally tested the temperature‐dependent feeding preference of the invasive ...
