Predation by fish on intertidal oysters [PDF]

Marine Ecology Progress Series, 1999
Experiments in many parts of the world have indicated that sessile intertidal organisms are affected by fish predation. Farming of oysters Saccostrea commercialis (Iredale & Roughley) and Crassostrea gigas (Thunberg) in New South Wales, Australia, depends on their natural recruitment and growth on intertidal structures in estuaries. We investigated the

Air exposure moderates ocean acidification effects during embryonic development of intertidally spawning fish

Scientific Reports, 2022
Ocean acidification can negatively impact the early life-stages of marine fish, due to energetic costs incurred by the maintenance of acid–base homeostasis, leaving less energy available for growth and development.

Tropical intertidal seagrass beds as fish habitat: Similarities between fish assemblages of intertidal and subtidal seagrass beds in the Philippines [PDF]

Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science, 2021
Abstract Tropical intertidal seagrass beds have recently been identified as foraging grounds for multiple fish species, although the possible drivers of fish migration to such beds remain unknown. Investigations of fishes occurring in intertidal and subtidal seagrass beds, and comparison of food resources of the dominant trophic groups in the ...

Upper temperature limits of tropical marine ectotherms: global warming implications [PDF]

, 2011
Animal physiology, ecology and evolution are affected by temperature and it is expected that community structure will be strongly influenced by global warming.

Biomineralization of primary carbonate cements: a new biosignature in the fossil record from the Anisian of Southern Italy

Lethaia, EarlyView., 2021
Biomineralization is a generic term used to indicate biological‐mediated mineral formation. In carbonate mineralization, nucleation of crystals can be: (1) controlled directly by the organisms, like in the skeletal formation of most metazoans; (2) induced by microbial communities, by indirect precipitation mediated by their metabolic activities; or (3)

Novel insights into the genetics, morphology, distribution and hosts of the global fish parasitic digenean Proctoeces maculatus (Looss, 1901) (Digenea: Fellodistomidae)

Parasitology, 2023
Larval stages of the widely distributed digenean species Proctoeces maculatus (Looss, 1901) were reported 40 years ago from South Africa in the common octopus, Octopus vulgaris Cuvier (Octopodidae).

Food habits of the mudskipper Periophthalmus waltoni koumans, 1941 in the Coastal Areas of the Persian Gulf (Hormozgna Province) [PDF]

بوم‌شناسی آبزیان, 2023
The study of food composition and feeding ecology of fishes living in the intertidal zone are essential in understanding the energetic connectivity between terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. The mudskipper Periophthalmus waltoni is an amphibious fish in

Respiratory Adaptations in Intertidal Fish [PDF]

American Zoologist, 1988
SYNOPSIS: Intertidal rockpools provide a challenging environment for rockpool fish with rapid changes taking place in many environmental parameters over a tidal cycle. Intertidal fish exhibit a number of behavioural adaptations such as the avoidance of hypoxic situations or remaining inactive during aerial “stranding.” Other species are, however, well ...
