Potential Impacts of Climate Interventions on Marine Ecosystems
Abstract Rising global temperatures pose significant risks to marine ecosystems, biodiversity, and fisheries. Recent comprehensive assessments suggest that large‐scale mitigation efforts to limit warming are falling short, and all feasible future climate projections, including those that represent optimistic emissions reductions, exceed the Paris ...

Viral and Bacterial Epibionts in Thermally-Stressed Corals [PDF]
The periodic rise in seawater temperature is one of the main environmental determinants of coral bleaching. However, the direct incidence of these episodic thermal anomalies on coral-associated microbiota and their subsequent effects on coral health are still not completely understood. In this study, we investigated the dynamics of three main microbial

Bacterial Communities Associated With Crustose Coralline Algae Are Host‐Specific
Fifteen Indo‐Pacific crustose coralline algae (CCA) species surface microbial communities were characterised with 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing and are distinct. The CCA surface microbiome primarily differentiate by algal host species, but core bacterial communities additionally correlated to host phylogeny.

Aqueous extracts from Pistia stratiotes and Pontederia crassipes inhibit Microcystis aeruginosa while stimulating its associated microbiota. Reintroduction of microbiota into fresh cyanobacterial cultures reduced allelopathic effects, likely through allelochemical degradation and antioxidative responses.

We present vital life‐history and demographic data including the oceanic stage duration, timing of ontogenetic habitat shifts, and multi‐year foraging patterns of eastern North Pacific green sea turtles found in Southern California. The findings were obtained by analyzing sea turtle bones (age and growth via skeletochronology; and habitat and diet via ...

ABSTRACT Hermit crabs rely on external shells for protection due to their non‐calcified pleons. This study focuses on the anatomical features and functional roles of various appendages in Calcinus tibicen to understand their mechanisms for shell anchoring.

Macroepibiosis of three species of scallops in the waters of southern Primorye
Composition and distribution of macroepibionts on scallops Swiftopecten swiftii, Mizuhopecten yessoensis and Azumapecten farreri (Pectinidae, Bivalvia, Mollusca) are investigated in 13 shallow-water areas at southern Primorye.

Fouled snails in flow:potential of epibionts on Littorina littorea to increase drag and reduce snail growth rates [PDF]
Epibiosis is one of the closest interspecies associations. The presence of epibionts potentially causes a multitude of beneficial or detrimental effects for the basibiont.

Aerobic methane production in marine ecosystems
Abstract Oceans are considered significant methane sources, but the origin of methane in oxic surface seawaters remains unknown. Here, we collected seawater from the Jiulong River Estuary, Taiwan Strait, and Arctic Ocean to explore the potential for aerobic methane production.

Abstract Biomineralization around the Ediacaran–Cambrian boundary enabled new ecological strategies, including encrustation, boring and cavity‐dwelling, across various lineages. Here we describe problematic vesicular fossils that are attached to, or embedded within, the calcium phosphatic shells of the tommotiid genus Tesella from the middle Cambrian ...
