Eukaryovorous Predation in Evolutionarily Significant Excavate‐Like Flagellates
ABSTRACT Accumulating evidence suggests that the Last Eukaryotic Common Ancestor (LECA) resembled contemporary excavates, a non‐monophyletic group of deep branching flagellates. Here we explore the functional ecology of distantly related deep‐branching “excavate‐like” flagellates (in Alveolata and Provora) that share with many excavates a vane‐bearing ...

ABSTRACT Calamyzine worms are often found in mantle cavities of large chemosymbiotic bivalves in deep‐sea chemosynthesis‐based ecosystems, but the nature of trophic interactions between the worms and their clam hosts remains largely obscure. Here, we combine bulk tissue carbon and nitrogen stable isotope analyses with radiocarbon and nitrogen compound ...

ABSTRACT The introduction of exotic species is one of the main drivers of biodiversity loss in aquatic ecosystems. The Harris mud crab Rhithropanopeus harrisii, native to the Atlantic coast of North America, was recorded in the Patos Lagoon estuary (southern Brazil) in the 1980s, likely introduced via ballast water. However, the effects of this invader

Abstract Solar radiation is the key energy input to the ocean. In the Arctic Ocean and its peripheral seas, the distribution of solar radiation is strongly modulated by the presence of sea ice. In this study, we combined satellite and model products to investigate solar radiation partitioning between reflection to the atmosphere, absorption in the ice,
