Seaweed Habitats on the Shore: Characterization through Hyperspectral UAV Imagery and Field Sampling

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Intertidal macroalgal habitats are major components of temperate coastal ecosystems. Their distribution was studied using field sampling and hyperspectral remote mapping on a rocky shore of Porspoder (western Brittany, France).

Not All Aliens Come to Harm (Maybe): Pinctada radiata (Leach, 1814) Population and Habitat From a Coastal Lagoon (Central Mediterranean Sea)

open access: yesMarine Ecology, Volume 46, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
ABSTRACT Pinctada radiata, Leach, 1814, is considered the first Indo‐Pacific bivalve introduced in the Mediterranean Sea after the Suez Canal opening and it is now reckoned among the 100 most invasive species within the basin. It is important to assess and describe its established populations in Mediterranean coastal ecosystems to understand the ...

Geological and Ecological Insights on the Lake Faro Global Geosite Within the Messina Strait Framework (Italy)

open access: yesGeosciences
The Lake Faro brackish basin (Sicily, Italy) was established as a Global Geosite as a key locality of tectonic coastal lakes, but little research has been devoted to this rare geological and ecological framework.

Nutritional Value and Antioxidant Potential of Djiboutian Abundant Seaweeds, With Their Food Applications in Doughnut and Tartare

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 13, Issue 9, September 2025.
This study explores the untapped potential of Djiboutian macroalgae as food ingredients, focusing on their nutritional composition (Proteins, amino acids and carbohydrates, including mannitol), phenolic content, and associated antioxidant properties. We also assess the recommended daily allowance of these macroalgae and present the results of a blind ...

Assessment of the potential of the fucoid seaweed, Hormosira banksii, as a source of fucoidan and coculture on a Pacific oyster farm in New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 59, Issue 3, Page 553-573, September 2025.
ABSTRACT This study investigated the potential for developing a new seaweed species for aquaculture by assessing its fucoidan yield and coculturing in an intertidal hanging basket culture system with Pacific oysters. Hormosira banksii, or Neptune's necklace, is a common intertidal seaweed found throughout temperate Australia and New Zealand, which is ...

Fucoidan From Brown Algae as a Functional Food Ingredient: A Promising Anticancer Agent

open access: yeseFood, Volume 6, Issue 4, August 2025.
Fucoidan, a bioactive polysaccharide from brown algae, inhibits receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) activation and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) signaling, suppressing the phosphoinositide 3‐kinase/protein kinase B/mammalian target of rapamycin (PI3K/Akt/mTOR) and RAS/RAF/mitogen‐activated protein kinase/extracellular signal‐regulated kinase ...

Tracing the biogeographic history of the world's most isolated insular floras

open access: yesJournal of Systematics and Evolution, Volume 63, Issue 4, Page 952-973, July 2025.
We inferred the spatio–temporal colonization histories of seven vascular plant lineages (Acaena magellanica, Austroblechnum penna‐marina, Azorella selago, Colobanthus kerguelensis, Notogrammitis crassior, Polystichum marionense, Pringlea antiscorbutica) using phylogenetic, divergence time estimation, and Bayesian Island Biogeographic analyses.

Simulated intertidal heat stress on the brown seaweed Ascophyllum nodosum demonstrates differential population sensitivity to future climate

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 113, Issue 6, Page 1504-1520, June 2025.
Our findings underscore the importance of replicating realistic tidal cycles and temperature trajectories to accurately assess thermal stress in intertidal species, as temperature fluctuations between high and low tides drive the stress response. Our projections not only align with observed local extinctions but also indicate future trends, emphasising
