Project‐Based Learning Methodology: Restoring Hermit Crab Habitats With Photocurable Alumina Slurry 3D Printed Shells

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Education, Volume 60, Issue 4, December 2025.
ABSTRACT This study proposes a project‐based learning methodology that emphasises technical research with the active participation of schoolchildren. The study focuses on ecological conservation using ceramic slurry 3D printing technology. It is categorised into two distinctive technical and educational aspects.

What Is the Population Structure of Poecilogonic Species? Evidence From Large‐Scale Genotyping in a Neogastropod Lineage (Conoidea: Raphitoma)

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 24, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Dispersal of marine benthic invertebrates is typically dependent on the developmental mode of their pelagic larvae, which can be prolonged and based on plankton feeding (planktotrophic), or short and rely on the nutrients from the egg (non‐planktotrophic).

Neoichnology and sediment distribution in tidal flats of the mud‐dominated mesotidal Mira River estuary (Portugal)

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 72, Issue 7, Page 2201-2238, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Invertebrate burrow morphologies and distributions are presented for the tidal flats of the middle and lower reaches of the tide‐influenced (mesotidal), mud‐dominated Mira River estuary (SW Portugal) as an analogue for interpreting the ichnology of palaeoestuarine successions.

Light‐driven micro/nanobots

open access: yesNanophotonics, Volume 14, Issue 27, Page 4821-4874, December 2025.
Abstract Modern technological evolution witnesses a fast‐paced progress in the design, science, and technology of light‐driven micro/nanomachines in the recent past. These micromachines have found enormous applications as micro/nanoscale manipulators, micromachined space exploration components, nano‐sized cell positioning and control, and micro ...

Biological surveys reveal unexpectedly high faunal diversity at Nankai Trough methane seeps

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Cold seeps are chemosynthesis‐based ecosystems powered by microbial primary production that support diverse and specialized faunal assemblages in the deep sea. Despite Nankai Trough in Japan being a geologically active margin hosting numerous seeps, much of the faunal diversity remains undocumented.

Semiochemical applications for managing the grey field slug (Deroceras reticulatum Müller), a major pest of arable crops

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 11, Page 7288-7301, November 2025.
Trends in semiochemical research highlight promising attractants and repellents for ‘push–pull’ pest control strategies of the grey field slug. Extracts from plants, predators, entomopathogenic fungi, and essential oils demonstrate potential in modifying grey field slug behaviour, inducing avoidance, antifeeding responses, or mortality, offering ...

Glimpses of ammonite lives

open access: yesGeology Today, Volume 41, Issue 6, Page 260-268, November/December 2025.
Ammonites were molluscs, now extinct, that abounded in Mesozoic seas. Their external shells are almost always the only parts of them that are preserved, and their soft‐part anatomy and lifestyles remain largely unknown. The shells, however, can be preserved in various ways that shed light on the animals as living organisms, including their variation ...

Microstructural and geochemical evidence offers a solution to the cephalopod cameral deposits riddle

open access: yesPalaeontology, Volume 68, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
Abstract Orthoceratoid cephalopods are common in the Palaeozoic rock record but went extinct in the Late Triassic. Many orthoceratoids contain cameral deposits, which are enigmatic calcareous structures within their chambered shell that presumably balanced their straight conchs in a horizontal position. Since the mid‐19th century, palaeontologists have

Dynamic benthic oxygen fluxes lessen hypoxia effects on open continental shelves

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 70, Issue 10, Page 2998-3015, October 2025.
Abstract Under the supposition that organisms inhabiting physically dynamic marine environments are better able to survive hypoxic conditions than those experiencing little turbulent or advective augmentation of oxygen fluxes, we evaluated summertime benthic macrofauna communities, in situ aquatic eddy covariance measurements, and ex situ sediment core
