Sediment‐stressed reefs over the past 420 Myr

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, EarlyView.
In order to fully elucidate the relationship between siliciclastic sedimentation and reef development, there needs to be a significant step change in how we record ancient and recent reefs. Only through the collection of constrained quantitative data, we can progress beyond the largely conjectural associations postulated for many ancient reefal systems.

Whitings in the Red Sea

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, EarlyView.
We present the first documentation of whitings in the Red Sea, observed in a lagoonal environment. These events are linked to cascading offshore dense waters that liberate trapped sea floor nutrients, triggering algal blooms and elevating alkalinity, which is buffered by direct CaCO3 precipitation—contributing to the accumulation of aragonite mud in ...

Why Homoscleromorph Sponges Have Ciliated Epithelia: Evidence for an Ancestral Role in Mucociliary Driven Particle Flux

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
Epithelia are typically ciliated, except in sponges. Of all Porifera only Homoscleromorphs have motile cilia on their epithelia. Our data highlight the presence of cilia and mucociliary particle transport as a common feature of metazoa and a secondary loss in other sponge lineages.

Can web crawlers revolutionize ecological monitoring? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Despite recent advances, ecosystem service monitoring is limited by insufficient data, the complexity of social-ecological systems, and poor integration of information that tracks changes in ecosystems and economic activities.

Ocean Science Meets Diplomacy: Contribution of the One Ocean Science Congress to the Third United Nations Ocean Conference

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Bulletin, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper reviews the outcomes of the One Ocean Science Congress (OOSC) and its strategic alignment with the Third United Nations Ocean Conference (UNOC3) as a case study in ocean science diplomacy. Convened in June 2025 in Nice, France, as a UN Special Event immediately preceding UNOC3, the OOSC introduced an innovative model for ...

Production and fate of macroalgal carbon in the ocean: How much do macroalgal organics matter?

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, EarlyView.
Abstract Global carbon sequestration by macroalgae is hypothesized to rival rates in other blue carbon ecosystems. However, quantifying macroalgal carbon sequestration is challenging as it is hypothesized to occur outside macroalgal ecosystems, with 73% of sequestration occurring when dissolved organic carbon (DOC) is exported to deep ocean waters.
