Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 39, Issue 12, December 2024.Abstract Paleoceanographic proxy archives encode information about the marine environment, which can yield key insights into past climate variability. In particular, marine calcifiers' stable oxygen isotopic composition (δ18Ocarb ${{\delta }^{18}\mathrm{O}}_{\mathrm{carb}}$) tells us about seawater temperature and oxygen isotope composition.

miRNA Repertoires of Demosponges Stylissa carteri and Xestospongia testudinaria
PLOS ONE, 2016 MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small regulatory RNAs that are involved in many biological process in eukaryotes. They play a crucial role in modulating genetic expression of their targets, which makes them integral components of transcriptional regulatory networks.

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 34, Issue 11, November 2024.ABSTRACT Hydrothermal vents are biodiversity hotspots on the deep seafloor powered by chemosynthetic primary production, inhabited by a specially adapted fauna whose composition varies between regions. Sumisu Caldera, located approximately 500 km south of Tokyo, hosts a hot vent with an unusual species composition among the Izu–Ogasawara Arc sites and ...
