Adaptation to extreme environments: A review of Antarctic fish physiology
Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Having evolved in the chronically cold and thermally stable waters of the Southern Ocean (SO) for millions of years, Antarctic fish possess a suite of physiological specializations that enable them to survive at temperatures near the freezing point of seawater. Adaptations include the evolution of antifreeze proteins, modifications of membrane

Impact of light pollution on fishes: Mechanisms and ecological consequences
Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.Abstract The increasing prevalence of artificial light at night (ALAN) is of growing ecological concern. By altering natural light regimes, ALAN affects the behaviour, physiology and life‐history of organisms. While research has largely focused on terrestrial ecosystems, aquatic ecosystems are increasingly exposed.

The Hadal Amphipod Hirondellea gigas possessing a unique cellulase for digesting wooden debris buried in the deepest seafloor. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The Challenger Deep in the Mariana Trench is the deepest point in the ocean (10,994 m). Certain deep-sea animals can withstand the extreme pressure at this great depth. The amphipod Hirondellea gigas is a resident of the Challenger Deep.

Frontiers in Genetics, 2022 The hadal zone, which represents the deepest marine habitat on Earth (6,000–11,000 m), is a harsh environment mainly characterized by extremely high hydrostatic pressure, and this habitat is believed to have a high degree of endemism.

Dust and Primary Biological Aerosol Particles (PBAP) Effects on Sea Breeze Systems Over Houston
Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.Abstract Sea‐breeze‐induced convection plays a critical role in coastal weather but remains challenging to simulate due to complex aerosol–cloud interactions. Although mineral dust and primary biological aerosol particles (PBAPs) are known to act as cloud condensation nuclei and ice nucleating particles, their impacts on different convective cloud ...

Hadal zones of the Southwest Pacific and east Indian oceans [PDF]
The hadal zone (water depths > 6000 m) are unlike the overlying shallower marine regions (bathyal and abyssal) as it does not follow a continuum from the continental shelves to abyssal plains, but rather exhibits a globally disjunct series of discrete ...

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023 The hadal zone and Antarctic Ocean are two of the least-explored habitats. Knowledge about human impacts on these two extreme environments is limited. Here, we analyzed the metal accumulations of two amphipod species, Eurythenes gryllus, from the Mariana

Viruses in the sediments around the trenches harbor diverse survival mechanisms
iMetaOmics, Volume 3, Issue 3, September 2026.Deep‐sea trenches are the deepest and most isolated environments in the global ocean but the diversity and adaptation of the viral communities remain poorly characterized. In this study, 5563 viral operational taxonomic units (vOTUs) were identified from sediments of the Yap Trench and Western Caroline Basin.

, 2022 The hadal zone (depths > 6,000 m) comprises isolated features that host high degrees of endemism, with species inhabiting only a single feature or a group of adjacent features.
