Pressurized plankton observatory offers a new window into deep‐sea larval behavior

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract The High‐Pressure Plankton Observatory (HiPPO) is designed to quantify motions of zooplankton for behavioral study, including swimming and metabolic responses to environmental perturbations. It builds on prior chamber designs while filling gaps in capability for resolving orientation of small (< 1 mm) plankton, tracking their movements over ...

Culturing the solitary ascidian Phallusia nigra in closed and open water systems for tropical environmental research

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Marine and coastal ecosystems have been undergoing dramatic shifts due to global environmental changes. The rise in seawater temperature, ocean acidification, hypoxia, eutrophication, and anthropogenic pollution severely affects marine organisms.

Refuge trifecta: intertidal gastropods use pits to escape heat, wave action and predation

Oikos, EarlyView.
Refuges play a critical role in ecology and evolution. In hard intertidal shores, small pits attract benthic invertebrates such as gastropods, however, there exists little mechanistic understanding of the processes driving the active usage of these microhabitat features. We conducted a series of laboratory experiments to assess whether the marine snail

Quantifying community keystoneness in metacommunities under disturbance

Oikos, EarlyView.
Understanding how metacommunities respond to natural and anthropogenic disturbances is a key objective in ecology. In this study, we introduce an analytical framework to identify communities whose extirpation triggers stronger (hereafter keystone communities) or weaker (hereafter idle communities) cascading effects on extinction and colonization events

Habitat availability is insufficient to explain regional variations in white stork breeding habitat preference

Oikos, EarlyView.
Understanding species–habitat associations is key for making predictions of species distributions of relevance to ecology and conservation. Regional differences in species habitat preferences can hinder the transferability of habitat models in space and time, but our ability to account for these differences will depend on the mechanisms underlying them
