Cadmium bioaccumulation in two resident limpet species, Scutellastra granularis and Siphonaria capensis, along the South African coastline

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Science
We investigated cadmium (Cd) bioaccumulation in two limpet species, Scutellastra granularis and Siphonaria capensis, along the South African coastline from three sites: Namaqua National Park, West Coast National Park and Garden Route National Park ...

PISCO: Intertidal: Mussel Growth Monitoring: UCSC: 2003

open access: yes, 2011
This metadata record documents the difference of growth rates of mussels within the study sites of PISCO intertidal and on moorings along the central California coast. The transplanted mussels are placed with in the exposed mid zone of the study sites or

Post‐hatching development of the remote‐tactile bill‐tip organ in precocial shorebirds (Scolopacidae)

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Juvenile scolopacid shorebirds possess well‐developed osteological correlates of tactile bill‐tip organs, indicating sensory systems for remote‐touch foraging are present from early life. Ontogenetic changes in bill‐tip morphology suggest ecological specialisation and interspecific variation develop later, after fledging in these highly precocial ...

The biogeography and biodiversity of the Namibian intertidal seaweed flora [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Bibliography: leaves 149-160.There have been very few intertidal studies carried out on the Namibian coast. With respect to seaweeds in particular there have been a number of species lists and shore descriptions, but very little research into the ...

Dive surveys and eDNA detect contrasting macroalgal community composition in Nova Scotia, Canada

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Morphological identification of macroalgae can be time‐consuming and species may be difficult to observe, collect, or identify, preventing detailed study on the distribution and ecology of many species. The use of eDNA in species surveillance and biodiversity assessments has gained considerable traction in studying macroalgae, as it provides ...

PISCO: Intertidal: Mussel Fecundity Monitoring: OSU: 2003

open access: yes, 2011
This metadata record documents the mussel fecundity data for the PISCO intertidal. The fecundity of mussels is being compared between six PISCO sites.

Fluctuating asymmetry based on fractal geometry does not track environmental stress in an intertidal habitat‐forming fucoid

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract The availability of easy‐to‐measure and inexpensive biomarkers is a challenge for monitoring environmental stress in organisms. Although it has been proposed that non‐directional deviations from a symmetrical pattern in morphological traits (called fluctuating asymmetry.

Crawling under the radar: Two novel Paulinella species expand knowledge about the ecology and evolution of a primary plastid‐containing amoeba lineage

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract The genus Paulinella represents a rare, independent case of primary endosymbiosis, providing a unique system to study the early stages of organelle evolution. Here, we expand current understanding of primary plastid endosymbiosis through the discovery and characterization of two novel photosynthetic amoebae, Paulinella marae sp. nov.
