Planktonic Subsidies to Surf-Zone and Intertidal Communities.

open access: yesAnnual Review of Marine Science, 2018
Plankton are transported onshore, providing subsidies of food and new recruits to surf-zone and intertidal communities. The transport of plankton to the surf zone is influenced by wind, wave, and tidal forcing, and whether they enter the surf zone ...

300 Years of Degradation in Wales Estuaries and Coasts

open access: yesNatural Resources Forum, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The world's oceans are in a severe state of degradation, yet our understanding of that degradation is often based on changes observed only in the past 20–50 years. This narrow view leads to marine conservation efforts that aim to preserve already degraded ecosystems, shaped by shifted ecological baselines.

The functional roles of herbivores in the rocky intertidal systems in Chile: A review of food preferences and consumptive effects Los roles funcionales de los herbívoros en sistemas intermareales rocosos en Chile: Una revisión de las preferencias alimenticias y efectos de consumo

open access: yesRevista Chilena de Historia Natural, 2011
This paper reviews recent knowledge about the functional roles that herbivores have in intertidal communities in Chile. Specifically, I review field and laboratory studies dealing with the food preferences of herbivores, the responses of algae to ...

Intertidal marine sediment harbours Actinobacteria with promising bioactive and biosynthetic potential

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Actinobacteria are the major source of bioactive natural products that find their value in research and drug discovery programmes. Antimicrobial resistance and the resulting high demand for novel antibiotics underscore the need for exploring novel ...

The biology and ecology of benthic foraminifera inhabiting intertidal mudflats

open access: yes, 2015
Benthic foraminifera inhabiting the mudflats of the Eden Estuary, NE Scotland, exhibited a single annual peak in abundance at both high (270 individuals 10 cm⁻²) and low shore (210 individuals 10 cm⁻²) intertidal sampling stations during June 2000 ...

Metabolome Diversity Enhances Resistance of Intertidal Clams to Thermal Stress

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Meretrix species are widely distributed intertidal bivalves in China with significant ecological and economic importance, which are sensitive to thermal stress. Our results showed that thermal environments of clam habitats shaped metabolome diversity, which can enhance the resistance of intertidal clams to thermal stress.

Extremely low biodiversity Arctic intertidal habitats as sentinels for environmental change

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
The Arctic is undergoing dramatic changes, including an unprecedented decline in sea ice. Previous studies have shown the severe structuring impact of sea ice scour upon polar intertidal communities.
