PISCO: Intertidal: Mussel Fecundity Monitoring: UCSC: 2005

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

Functional Variation in the Feeding Apparatus of Charadriiform Shorebirds With Emphasis on Bill‐Tip Organs and Micro Tongue Tip Spines

open access: yesJournal of Morphology, Volume 287, Issue 9, September 2026.
Comparative morphological analyses of shorebird feeding apparatus revealed substantial variation in bill‐tip organs and micro tongue tip spines across taxa. Key findings included variation in sensory pit numbers within the bill‐tip organs characteristic of Scolopacidae, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealing micro tongue tip spines in several

Widespread spring discharge drives major water–salt–heat fluxes in salt marshes

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 5, September 2026.
Abstract The occurrence, spatial distribution, and flux significance of submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) through preferential pathways in low‐permeability salt marshes remain poorly understood. Using thermal infrared imaging and in situ measurements, we mapped 983 saline springs in winter and 413 in summer across six tidal creeks on the muddy ...

Bed‐level tools for monitoring erosion and accretion patterns: Flume validation and field testing

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, Volume 24, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Monitoring short‐term changes in surface sediment elevation is fundamental to understanding erosion, transport, and deposition dynamics in shallow coastal environments. However, commonly used field approaches, such as horizontal markers, sediment erosion tables, subsurface sediment plates, or erosion pins, are not always cross‐validated under ...

Seagrass species diversity in Tanzania based on morphological and molecular data

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 9, September 2026.
Seagrass diversity along the Tanzanian coast has been documented mainly through morphology, with limited molecular reference data available for Tanzania and the wider Western Indian Ocean. This study combined morphological identification with nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and plastid ribulose‐1,5‐bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase

The Distribution and Feeding Ecology of Three Marine Invertebrates in a Customary Fisheries Management Area and Implications for Restoration

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 3, September 2026.
Biotic interactions are fundamental to the structuring of marine communities. Predator–prey and competitive interactions can drive species distribution, abundance and mediate individual behaviour. These interactions are especially important to understand in the context of restoration.

Thermal Preference and Performance in the Marine Amphipod Melita inaequistylis

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 3, September 2026.
Climate‐induced warming can impose thermal stress on organisms, impacting their physiology in addition to ecosystem structure and functioning. In most species the response to warming is poorly understood; the majority of thermal physiology research focuses on single performance measures and fails to predict overall functioning with respect to future ...

Reconnaissance Investigation of Sedimentation Patterns in a Small Modern Anthropogenically Influenced Inlet, Otūwhero Estuary, Abel Tasman National Park, New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 3, September 2026.
The structurally controlled Otūwhero estuary on the SE boundary of Abel Tasman National Park is a small partially filled incised valley. The small size, limited number of fluvial inputs, accessibility and surrounding land use made it an ideal candidate on which to investigate potential climate‐induced estuarine behaviour. Surficial sediment samples and

Effects of Acclimation Temperature on Responses of Blackfoot Pāua (Haliotis iris) to Acute Temperature Change, Reduced Salinity and Progressive Hypoxia

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 3, September 2026.
Effects of acclimation temperature with acute temperature, reduced salinity or lowered dissolved oxygen are significant stressors to physiological and biological responses of adult Pāua. Pāua have a limited ability to acclimate to temperatures above 18 °C.

Transboundary Policy Perspectives on Migratory Bird Stopover Sites Conservation: A Case Study of Yancheng (China) and Geelong (Australia) 迁徙鸟类停歇地保护的跨境政策视角 —— 以中国盐城与澳大利亚吉朗为例

open access: yesWildlife Letters, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 149-159, September 2026.
Migratory shorebirds traveling the East Asian–Australasian Flyway face systemic policy fragmentation and habitat disconnection between China (coordination challenges and renewable energy conflicts) and Australia (federal governance fragmentation). This study proposes a transboundary conservation framework to fill this gap.
