New medicine for soil restoration: biological soil crust capsules facilitate native plant and soil microbe establishment

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Restoration in drylands is challenging because of harsh climates, requiring creative methods and organisms like biocrusts for restoration of degraded lands. Biocrusts are thin, coherent soil surface layers prevalent in drylands, engineered, and inhabited by communities of organisms including mosses, lichens, and cyanobacteria ...

Sponges survive and develop infaunal snapping shrimp communities when transplanted immediately after clonal propagation: implications for restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Sponges historically dominated the heterotrophic biomass of Florida Bay's hard‐bottom habitat, providing crucial ecosystem services including shelter for soniferous shrimp that contribute to the marine soundscape. The loss of the sponge communities has inspired restoration efforts using in‐water nurseries for vegetative ...

Improving seed‐based restoration in Eelgrass (Zostera marina) in combined aquarium and field experiments

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Seagrass restoration efforts are being implemented globally to accelerate the slow natural recolonization success. Among the various existing methods, seed‐based approaches offer the greatest scalability for species like Zostera marina, yet these methods remain undeveloped for a number of sub‐tidal systems like the Baltic Sea ...

Alternative approaches to dryland reclamation enhance vegetation cover and soil stability at a former uranium mine

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Conventional reclamation methods to recover dryland ecosystems after mineral extraction often have low success. Alternative reclamation techniques may help overcome the many challenges to establishing persistent native vegetation and stable soils.

Spherulite in the modern aragonitic travertine stromatolite has a calcite core with exopolymers

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Spherulites are spherical to ellipsoidal particles formed by various crystalline substances and can be abiotically synthesised in the laboratory. Among various spherulite types, spherulites composed of calcium carbonate are also found in various natural environments, but their abiotic or biotic origins are still controversial.
