Ascidians increase in abundance on tropicalized reefs and may enhance benthic nitrous oxide production

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Nitrous oxide (N2O) is an ozone‐depleting greenhouse gas that has a global warming potential nearly 300 times greater than carbon dioxide. Although the oceans contribute about 21% of atmospheric global N2O emissions, we know relatively little about N2O dynamics in nearshore systems. Here, we document the fourfold increase in the abundance of a

From Headwaters to the Sea: The Journey of Creating an Immersive Museum Exhibit

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Bulletin, EarlyView.
Abstract We describe the multi‐year journey of a group of researchers co‐creating a museum exhibit with the Biosphère an environmental museum of the City of Montréal. The collaboration resulted in an immersive experience where visitors can dive into an aquatic continuum and learn about function, ecology, chemistry, and the roles of the various aquatic ...

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.

Embedding a multichannel ion‐sensitive field‐effect transistor‐pH sensor array in marine sediments: a new approach for continuous in situ pH monitoring

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Human activities have significantly increased carbon dioxide emissions, leading to global warming and ocean acidification, which threaten marine ecosystems, including coral reefs with high biodiversity. Coral reef maintenance relies on a balance between calcium carbonate formation and dissolution. Among the processes, sandy sediments, covering

Culturing the solitary ascidian Phallusia nigra in closed and open water systems for tropical environmental research

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Marine and coastal ecosystems have been undergoing dramatic shifts due to global environmental changes. The rise in seawater temperature, ocean acidification, hypoxia, eutrophication, and anthropogenic pollution severely affects marine organisms.

A review of high nature value farming systems in Europe: Biodiversity, ecosystem services, drivers, innovations and future prospects

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Farming systems of high natural and cultural value represent approximately 30% of farmlands in the European Union and are associated with a high species and habitat diversity and/or the presence of species of European conservation concern. This study aims to synthesize the existing knowledge on the assessment of biodiversity and ecosystem ...

What are landscapes for? Diverging preferences and shared understandings of rural farming landscapes

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Pressures to address the biodiversity loss and climate crises, and growing demands for the provision of a wide range of public goods are changing rural landscapes, challenging existing ecologies, economies and cultures. Conflicts between competing objectives complicate the development of acceptable conservation and land use strategies, often ...

Characterization of Unidirectional Aligned Discontinuous Fiber Reinforced Composites Containing a Toughened Epoxy Resin Produced Using the HiPerDiF Process

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Alignment of discontinuous fibers using the HiPerDiF 3G machine. ABSTRACT Aligned discontinuous fiber reinforced composites (ADFRC) offer promising applications due to their manufacturability and tailorable mechanical properties. In this study, the high performance discontinuous fiber (HiPerDiF) technology is used to produce ADFRC consisting of 3 and 6
