An Environmental Niche Exploration Tool for Kelp Forest Management

Ecology and Evolution
Sustainably managing kelp forest ecosystems is critical to maintaining marine biodiversity, supporting coastal communities, and meeting global conservation targets such as the Kunming‐Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework's 30 × 30 and Kelp Forest ...

Quantifying Land–Sea Connectivity Through Remotely Sensed River Plumes

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 19, 16 October 2026.
Abstract Coastal ecosystems are highly influenced by riverine freshwater inputs, but the nature of these influences is dynamic and hard to characterize. Here we present a method that leverages remote sensing data of river plumes to quantify land–sea connectivity.

Effect of Fluorination on the Activated Biocarbons Synthesized From Gracilaria edulis Biomass Employing Various Activating Agents for Supercapacitor Applications

Applied Research, Volume 5, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Fluorination of the activated biocarbons synthesized from Gracilaria edulis (GE) biomass employing various chemical activating agents (FeCl2, NiCl2, and ZnCl2) was performed effectively using hydrofluoric (HF) acid. The fluorine impregnation into activated biocarbon was confirmed through XPS analysis, which is found to be 2.3%, 1.0%, and 2.1%,

Continental scale metagenomics reveals Microcystis‐induced synchrony among aquatic taxa is exacerbated by trophic cascades

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 10, October 2026.
Harmful Microcystis proliferation severely threatens aquatic ecosystems globally, but its impacts on food‐web stability remain poorly understood. Here, we analyzed 1309 metagenomic samples from freshwater ecosystems across China to investigate how Microcystis abundance affects synchrony among taxa in multi‐trophic food webs (from bacteriophages to ...

Climatic rainfall regime shapes energy flow, trophic structure, and secondary production in streams

Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Changes in precipitation patterns linked to climate change have profound implications for the structuring and functioning of riverine ecosystems. This study investigates how rainfall influences secondary production by examining nine rivers across a sharp natural rainfall gradient over 3 years.

Nitrogen dynamics 35 years after stand‐replacing fire: Aboveground pools grow as surface soil pools remain unchanged

Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Natural disturbances induce variable recovery pathways, and long‐term studies are key to understanding how that variability affects ecosystem function over time and across space. In subalpine forests, high‐severity wildfires produce high variability in postfire tree density, but how this variability relates to nitrogen (N) cycling remains ...

Are Warming Ocean Temperatures Altering Photosynthesis and Respiration in Nereocystis luetkeana?

, 2022
Due to climate change caused by anthropogenic stressors there has been an increase in warming ocean temperatures that have led to the decline of kelp forest cover as well as range shifts (Duarte et al. 2018).

In situ degradation of kelp detritus: Implications for coastal carbon cycling

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Marine macroalgae (i.e., seaweeds) are crucial components of coastal carbon cycles and may be important contributors to marine carbon sequestration. Understanding the fate of macroalgal‐derived carbon in marine systems requires an understanding of the degradation dynamics of macroalgae across environmental gradients. Therefore, we conducted an

Integrating and assessing metacommunity drivers of ecosystem function and resilience in benthic algal systems

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 10, October 2026.
Understanding the scales and mechanisms by which species composition interacts with ecosystem functions is critical for forecasting the effects of environmental perturbations on ecosystem services. However, the linkages between what regulates the ecosystem functions of dispersal‐capable networks of communities (metacommunities) and what regulates a ...

Canopy-forming kelp forests persist in the dynamic subregion of the Broughton Archipelago, British Columbia, Canada

Frontiers in Marine Science
Canopy-forming kelp forests act as foundation species that provide a wide range of ecosystem services along temperate coastlines. With climate change, these ecosystems are experiencing changing environmental and biotic conditions; however, the kelp ...
