Exploring the Diversity of Temperate Mesophotic Rocky Reefs From ARMS and Water eDNA in Central Chile

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
LowerMesophoticEcosystems have greater alpha diversity and number of exclusive families, high turnover between LowerME and UpperME with clear differences in community composition. Water eDNA and ARMS eDNA are characterized by pelagic and benthic affinity respectively.

The Extinction Risk–Range Change Relationship: Evidence From the Fossil Record

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Climate change is a major driver for the wave of species extinctions predicted for this century. Extinction risk assessments are often estimated from climate‐driven reductions in the geographic ranges of species. However, the empirical relationship between extinction risk and range change remains unclear because few extinctions are ...

Hard Rock Buffet: Chemosynthetic Carbon Use and Environmental Trophic Structuring of Carbonate‐Associated Macrofauna at Southern California Methane Seeps

Marine Ecology, Volume 47, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT Diverse invertebrate communities inhabiting carbonate rocks at methane seeps may rely on a mix of local chemosynthetic production and sinking photosynthetic organic matter, with relative importance shaped by environmental conditions. We investigate the contribution of chemosynthetic carbon to macrofaunal diets at six Southern California ...

Examining Marine Assemblages Across an Inverse Salinity Gradient

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 6, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Salinity gradients and fluctuations can create a natural ecological filter, with few species tolerating salinity above 50 practical salinity units (PSUs). We investigated how an inverse salinity gradient affected marine community diversity and composition in Shark Bay, a remote hypersaline coastal embayment in Western Australia.
