Integrating ecological feedbacks across scales and levels of organization

Ecography, EarlyView.
In ecosystems, species interact in various ways with other species, and with their local environment. In addition, ecosystems are coupled in space by diverse types of flows. From these links connecting different ecological entities can emerge circular pathways of indirect effects: feedback loops.

A review of the ecological effectiveness of subtidal marine reserves in Central California, Part I: Synopsis of scientific investigations [PDF]

, 2004
Marine reserves, often referred to as no-take MPAs, are defined as areas within which human activities that can result in the removal or alteration of biotic and abiotic components of an ecosystem are prohibited or greatly restricted (NRC 2001 ...

Fouling release coatings reduce colonisation of coral seeding devices

Scientific Reports
The increasing frequency and severity of coral bleaching underscores the need for effective coral reef restoration programs. These initiatives include deploying coral fragments or early recruits (spat), with large-scale coral seeding success dependent on

Sustainable bioceramics, biopolymers, and composites for bone applications: From bench to production

International Journal of Applied Ceramic Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract In response to environmental challenges and primary resource scarcity, sustainable approaches that rely on recycling and reusing waste materials are becoming highly valuable and appealing options in modern society. These strategies have started being applied in biomaterials science, too, leading to the advent of new synergies between ...

Minimizing Vessel Strikes to Endangered Whales: A Crash Course in Conservation Science and Policy [PDF]

, 2009
The North Atlantic right whale is one of the most endangered of all large whales: about 350-400 individuals remain. Species recovery is, in part, contingent on reducing vessel-strike mortality.

Statement from the frontal fibrosing alopecia international expert alliance: SOFFIA 2024

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.
Optimal treatment for frontal fibrosing alopecia (FFA) remains contentious. An international expert panel agreed that highly/ultra‐potent topical steroids were the preferred first‐line topical therapy. Preferred systemic therapies were 5‐alpha reductase inhibitors, followed by hydroxychloroquine.

The Coral Probiotics Village: An Underwater Laboratory to Tackle the Coral Reefs Crisis

Ecology and Evolution
Restoration efforts are urgently needed for the conservation of coral reefs. Among emerging tools, the use of probiotics has shown promise in laboratory settings for improving coral resilience, but their validation under real‐world reef conditions ...

Assessment of rhodolith‐forming species diversity in British Columbia uncovers novel cryptic diversity in the genera Boreolithothamnion and Rhodolithia gen. nov. (Florideophyceae, Rhodophyta) and the occurrence of hybrid rhodoliths

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Rhodolith collections in British Columbia have historically been limited, and published regional species diversity data are poor. The acquisition of recent collections, notably from rhodolith beds in Haida Gwaii, provided an opportunity to assess diversity in these waters. The DNA barcode markers COI‐5P, rbcL‐3P, and psbA were used to identify

The Greenland–Scotland Ridge in a Changing Ocean: Time to Act?

Marine Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Greenland–Scotland Ridge is a submarine mountain that rises up to 500 m below the sea surface and extends from the east coast of Greenland to the continental shelf of Iceland and across the Faroe Islands to Scotland. The ridge not only separates deeper ocean basins on either side, that is, the North Atlantic and Arctic oceans, but also ...

An Evolutionary Mosaic Challenges Traditional Monitoring of a Foundation Species in a Coastal Environment—The Baltic Fucus vesiculosus

Molecular Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT During periods of environmental change, genetic diversity in foundation species is critical for ecosystem function and resilience, but it remains overlooked in environmental monitoring. In the Baltic Sea, a key species for monitoring is the brown seaweed Fucus vesiculosus, which forms sublittoral 3D habitats providing shelter and food for fish
