Diversity and Distributions, Volume 31, Issue 12, December 2025.ABSTRACT Aim Climate change is reshuffling the distribution of species globally and threatening to modify the structure and functioning of natural and managed ecosystems. Most studies predicting species distributions rely on statistical approaches that do not capture the species' fundamental niche.

Polytraits : a database on biological traits of marine polychaetes [PDF]
, 2014 The study of ecosystem functioning – the role which organisms play in an ecosystem – is becoming increasingly important in marine ecological research. The functional structure of a community can be represented by a set of functional traits assigned to ...

Relevance of mytilid shell microtopographies for fouling defence - a global comparison [PDF]
, 2010 Prevention of epibiosis is of vital importance for most aquatic organisms, which can have consequences for their ability to invade new areas. Surface microtopography of the shell periostracum has been shown to have antifouling properties for mytilid ...

Genetic responses of the marine copepod Acartia tonsa (Dana) to heat shock and epibiont infestation
Aquaculture Reports, 2015 Expression of stress-related genes was investigated in the marine copepod Acartia tonsa in relation to heat shock at two different salinities (10 and 32‰), and it was furthermore investigated whether experimentally induced epibiont infestation led to ...

Marine epibiosis. II. Reduced fouling on Polysyncraton lacazei (Didemnidae, Tunicata) and proposal of an antifouling potential index [PDF]
, 1990 Polysyncraton lacazei is a colonial tunicate (family didemnidae) living in the NW-mediterranean rocky sublitoral. A thorough scanning of numerous colonies revealed that in spite of an apparently heavy local fouling pressure only one fouling species — a ...
