Climate Vulnerability of Australian Seafood Systems: A National Assessment of Exposure and Adaptive Capacity

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Marine waters are becoming warmer and acidified and experiencing more intense and longer heatwaves under climate change. These changes are already impacting marine ecosystems and seafood production, which are vital for supporting food security and economic productivity.

Insights into diet and niche separation in the context of prey availability between two sympatric whiprays in a tropical intertidal estuary

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Increasing evidence supports associations between various elasmobranch species and estuarine habitats, particularly during early life stages. However, with substantial knowledge gaps surrounding spatial habitat use and trophic ecology of estuary‐associated species in Australia, we cannot reliably assess the functional importance of these areas

Sundathelphusa tuerkayi, a new species of gecarcinucid freshwater crab (Crustacea: Brachyura) from Lombok Island, Indonesia

open access: yesNauplius
A new species of the freshwater crab genus Sundathelphusa Bott, 1969 is described from the Indonesian island of Lombok. Sundathelphusa tuerkayi, new species, appears to be most closely related to Sundathelphusa aruana (Roux, 1911), which is known for ...

Patterns of morphological and genetic variability in UK populations of the shore crab, Carcinus maenas Linnaeus, 1758 (Crustacea: Decapoda: Brachyura) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Previous research has identified extensive inter-population variability in the morphology of the shore crab (Carcinus maenas L.). To determine the source of this variation (genetic or environmental), morphological and genetic data were analysed from ...

Innovative Field Applications of Probiotics, Prebiotics, and Medicinal Plant Products for Disease Control in Aquaculture

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Disease outbreaks and the associated reliance on antibiotics pose major constraints to the sustainability of modern aquaculture. As regulatory pressures increase and consumer demand shifts toward residue‐free production, diverse biological interventions are gaining prominence as viable alternatives to chemotherapeutics.

Post‐hatching development of the remote‐tactile bill‐tip organ in precocial shorebirds (Scolopacidae)

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Juvenile scolopacid shorebirds possess well‐developed osteological correlates of tactile bill‐tip organs, indicating sensory systems for remote‐touch foraging are present from early life. Ontogenetic changes in bill‐tip morphology suggest ecological specialisation and interspecific variation develop later, after fledging in these highly precocial ...

The crayfish plague pathogen can infect freshwater-inhabiting crabs

open access: yes, 2014
The potential for A.astaci transmission in the opposite direction, from crabs to crayfish, and potential impact of this pathogen on populations of freshwater crabs require further investigations, because of possible consequences for crayfish and ...

Macroalgae respond to consumer‐mediated nutrient cycling in a temperate ecosystem

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Primary production in coastal upwelling regions has often been presumed to be supported primarily by allochthonous nutrients, but inconsistent nutrient delivery and the metabolic cost of nitrate assimilation can leave producers nitrogen limited during the growing season. As a potential supplement for insufficient allochthonous supply, nutrient
