Commercially Exploited Seaweed Species in Africa: Occurrences, Chemical Composition, Current Value Chain and Opportunities for Value Addition

open access: yesReviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 4, September 2026.
Commercially exploited seaweed species in Africa, their biochemical composition, current uses, and value chain are reviewed. Potential value‐addition of seaweed is suggested regionally in Africa amongst countries producing similar seaweed species. ABSTRACT Africa has a wide range of coastal environments that support a diverse array of seaweed species ...

Reproductive Biology and Life‐History Plasticity of the Yellowfin Snapper Lutjanus xanthopinnis in the Southern South China Sea

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
The reproductive biology of the yellowfin snapper Lutjanus xanthopinnis, recently identified as a new species, was first examined across all seasons in the southwestern South China Sea. Spawning in both female and male L. xanthopinnis was observed over the years.

Morphological and trophic coupling distinguishes coral clades along a light gradient

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Light availability is critical to the growth and survival of most scleractinian corals due to their endosymbiotic relationship with photosynthetic dinoflagellates. Natural light gradients are expected to be associated with shifts in coral physiology, morphology, and trophic strategy.

Spatial variability of hydrodynamics in oyster reefs: Investigating the impact of canopy density on mean and turbulent flows

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract This field study investigated how oyster canopy density modulates hydrodynamics of natural intertidal oyster reef. High‐resolution velocity measurements were taken simultaneously within and above oyster canopies of variable density (solid volume fractions, Ø=$$ \mathrm{\O}= $$ 0.04–0.21).
