Comparative Proteomics of Salinity Stress Responses in Fish and Aquatic Invertebrates
PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Fluctuating salinity is symptomatic of climate change challenging aquatic species. The melting of polar ice, rising sea levels, coastal surface and groundwater salinization, and increased evaporation in arid habitats alter salinity worldwide. Moreover, the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events such as rainstorms and floods increase,

Breaking down seagrass fragmentation in a marine heatwave impacted World Heritage Area
Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Habitat fragmentation can exacerbate the impacts of habitat loss but is rarely quantified in marine environments. Using satellite‐derived habitat maps, we identify widespread seagrass fragmentation following a marine heatwave that contributed to a dramatic shift in seascape structure in the Shark Bay World Heritage Area.
