Expansion of southern distributional range of Ucides occidentalis (Decapoda: Ucididae) and Cardisoma crassum (Decapoda: Gecarcinidae)

open access: yesRevista Peruana de Biología, 2017
Is recorded the species of crabs brachyuran Ucides occidentalis (mangrove crab) and Cardisoma crassum (Blue crab or without mouth) in the mangroves of San Pedro (Piura), expanding its geographical distribution south of Tumbes, which was the known limit ...

Heavy Metal Contamination in Arenillas Ecological Reserve Soils: Correlation and Conservation Impact

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 36, Issue 10, Page 3454-3471, June 2025.
ABSTRACT This study addresses the critical knowledge gap regarding heavy metal contamination in the soils of the Arenillas Ecological Reserve (AERv), located on the southwest coast of Ecuador. Despite being a fragile and highly biodiverse ecosystem, little is known about the magnitude, spatial distribution, and drivers of heavy metal contamination in ...

Características geológicas, hidrológicas y del manglar en la planicie costera de Nayarit, México

open access: yesInvestigaciones Geográficas, 1996
The different geoforms of the coastal zone are consecuence of environmental changes (hydrology, climate, marine hydrodynamic and organic growth). The coastal plain of Nayarit is an example of the confluence of these factors which result in saltmarshes ...

Hurricanes Induced Irreversible Large‐Scale Loss of Mangrove Forests

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 9, 16 May 2025.
Abstract Mangrove forests act as effective natural barriers against tropical storms. However, little information is available on the resilience of mangrove forests against hurricane impacts. Here we quantify the response of Florida mangroves to hurricane forcing.

Climate-driven regime shifts in a mangrove-salt marsh ecotone over the past 250 years. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Climate change is driving the tropicalization of temperate ecosystems by shifting the range edges of numerous species poleward. Over the past few decades, mangroves have rapidly displaced salt marshes near multiple poleward mangrove range limits ...

Foliar Water Uptake Supports Water Potential Recovery but Does Not Affect Xylem Sap Composition in Two Salt‐Secreting Mangroves

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 48, Issue 5, Page 3027-3037, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Mangroves are highly salt‐tolerant species, which live in saline intertidal environments, but rely on alternative, less saline water to maintain hydraulic integrity and plant productivity. Foliar water uptake (FWU) is thought to assist in hydration of mangroves, particularly during periods of acute water deficit.

Restoring mangrove biodiversity: can restored mangroves support fish assemblages comparable to natural mangroves over time?

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 4, May 2025.
Despite the recent global increase in mangrove restoration efforts, our understanding of the outcomes and recovery of biodiversity and re‐establishing functionality, such as productive fish habitat, is limited due to the lack of long‐term monitoring. Here, we used a space‐for‐time approach to investigate whether restored mangroves attain similar fish ...

Age and growth of Mugil cephalus (Linnaeus, 1758) (Perciformes: Mugilidae) in Bonny Estuary [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The age and growth of Mugil cephalus was investigated in Bonny Estuary, Nigeria, from January, 1995 to December, 1996. Length-weight relationships were isometric with length exponents of 2.84 (males), 2.90 (females) and 2.88 (overall).
