Hydrodynamic and anthropogenic disturbances co-shape microbiota rhythmicity and community assembly within intertidal groundwater-surface water continuum

bioRxiv, 2023
Tidal hydrodynamics drive the groundwater-seawater exchange and shifts in microbiota structure in the coastal zone. However, how the coastal water microbiota structure and assembly patterns respond to periodic tidal fluctuations and anthropogenic ...

Reactive oxygen species affect the potential for mineralization processes in permeable intertidal flats

Nature Communications, 2023
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are present in the pore water of intertidal permeable sediments, even in the anoxic zones. They control aerobic and anaerobic microbial degradation processes and thereby impact carbon turnover. Intertidal permeable sediments

Changes in Rocky Intertidal Community Structure During a Marine Heatwave in the Northern Gulf of Alaska

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Marine heatwaves are global phenomena that can have major impacts on the structure and function of coastal ecosystems. By mid-2014, the Pacific Marine Heatwave (PMH) was evident in intertidal waters of the northern Gulf of Alaska and persisted for ...

Genomic insights into molecular adaptation to intertidal environments in the mangrove Aegiceras corniculatum.

New Phytologist, 2021
Mangroves have colonized extreme intertidal environments characterized by high salinity, hypoxia, and other abiotic stresses. Aegiceras corniculatum, a pioneer mangrove species that evolved two specialized adaptive traits (salt secretion and crypto ...

Human impacts on polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon distribution in Chinese intertidal zones

Nature Sustainability, 2020
The intertidal zone—a transitional boundary between terrestrial and marine environments—has important ecological functions, and receives polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from human activities, but how and to what extent anthropogenic factors ...

Compound-specific stable isotope analysis of amino acid nitrogen reveals detrital support of microphytobenthos in the Dutch Wadden Sea benthic food web

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
The Wadden Sea is the world’s largest intertidal ecosystem and provides vital food resources for a large number of migratory bird and fish species during seasonal stopovers.

A High-Resolution Global Map of Giant Kelp (Macrocystis pyrifera) Forests and Intertidal Green Algae (Ulvophyceae) with Sentinel-2 Imagery

Remote Sensing, 2020
Giant kelp (Macrocystis pyrifera) is the most widely distributed kelp species on the planet, constituting one of the richest and most productive ecosystems on Earth, but detailed information on its distribution is entirely missing in some marine ...

Variability of macrofauna distribution along a dissipative log-spiral sandy beach in Rio de Janeiro, Southeastern Brazil

Scientia Marina, 2017
Log-spiral beaches display defined physical gradients alongshore. However, the majority of studies focus on the variability of a single population of macrofauna species.

Shell use by the hermit crab Calcinus californiensis at different levels of the intertidal zone

Scientia Marina, 2011
The gastropod shell use of the hermit crab Calcinus californiensis was studied at Troncones, Guerrero, México. Hermit crabs were captured at two different levels of the intertidal zone, in wave-protected and wave-exposed sites. C. californiensis occupied
