Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract Accurate direct measurements of coccolithophore particulate inorganic and organic carbon ratios (PIC/POC) are crucial for understanding the physiology and role these microbes play in global ocean carbon flux. Direct measurements of POC are commonly obtained by acid fuming or applying acid directly to filters to dissolve PIC (CaCO3) prior to CN

Uncertainty assessment for a novel optically shallow water radiometric acquisition platform
Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract We present a novel motorized platform, a custom‐built jet‐ski designed for acoustic and radiometric measurements in optically shallow coastal waters. This platform integrates in‐water radiometers with single‐beam and multi‐beam acoustic sensors, along with a suite of active and passive instruments (conductivity‐temperature‐depth, fluorescence,

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract Heart rate is a popular proxy of physiological responses, but the highly complex and variable cardiac data obtained from organisms such as marine invertebrates pose a major challenge to efficient and accurate data processing. To address this, we developed a novel, integrative algorithm for rapid and automated cardiac data processing.

A simple index for assessing cumulative human impacts on mountain lakes
Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract Mountain lakes are highly sensitive ecosystems and effective sentinels of environmental change, yet the exposure and magnitude of the human footprint remain poorly quantified. In this study, we develop a simple and non‐invasive abiotic index to assess cumulative pressures on mountain lakes. The proposed index integrates eight variables grouped

Refining techniques for high‐frequency monitoring of chlorophyll a fluorescence in estuarine systems
Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract Concentrations of the photosynthetic pigment chlorophyll a are commonly used as a proxy for phytoplankton biomass in aquatic systems. Traditional methods for extracting chlorophyll a in discrete samples limit measurement frequency, while in situ sensor technology provides high frequency chlorophyll a fluorescence measurements at a more ...

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract Assigning taxonomic identity and thus assessing taxonomic diversity in gelatinous zooplankton is challenging due to their fragility and difficult preservation. Formalin fixation compromises DNA integrity, while flash‐freezing, ethanol, and acetone preservation affect morphological features. In this study, we developed a methodological protocol

Interplanetary frontiers: terraforming from an invasion science perspective
Oikos, EarlyView.The pursuit of a multi‐planetary existence represents one of humanity's greatest frontiers. If applied justly, it offers an opportunity to extend its civilization's lifespan amid escalating sustainability crises on Earth. One approach increasingly gaining traction is terraforming, a hitherto theoretical ecological and evolutionary experiment revolving ...
