Abstract Scientific advances in environmental data coverage and machine learning algorithms have improved the ability to make large‐scale predictions where data are missing. These advances allowed us to develop a spatially resolved proxy for predicting numbers of tropical nearshore marine taxa.

Abstract Aim The poleward range expansion of tropical species, and range contraction of temperate species (known as tropicalisation) has mainly been studied from an ecological perspective, with little research on its genetic consequences. Here, we used distributional and genetic data to document the consequences of tropicalisation in rocky shore ...

Natural history and morphometry of the Cuban iguana (Cyclura nubila Gray, 1831) in Cayo Sijú, Cuba [PDF]
The report presents data about the Cuban iguana population (Cyclura nubila nubila) inhabiting Cayo Sijú, an 88 ha island off the southwest coast of Cuba. Population densities estimated using strip transects were higher in xerophytic coastal scrub (6.72 ±

Dépôts fluviaux et marins dans la zone côtière: une approche sédimentologique et morphologique de la région de Vitória, ES [PDF]
A dificuldade na distinção entre areias fluviais e marinhas não é incomum, principalmente em litorais com pouco aporte sedimentar e com planícies muito próximas à área fonte.

The Role of Artificial Structures in Facilitating Range Expansion of the Introduced Barnacle Megabalanus Coccopoma in the Southeastern U.S.A. [PDF]
The barnacle Megabalanus coccopoma is a recent invader of the southeastern U.S.A. from the tropical eastern Pacific. In Georgia, M. coccopoma populations along the immediate coastline often suffer extensive mortality during the winter, but population ...

Population-Level Genetic Structure of Acmispon Argophyllus on the Channel Islands of California [PDF]
The California Channel Islands present an ideal system in which to study unique biogeographical patterns seen in island systems near a mainland source, where spatial barriers are likely to limit gene flow without disrupting it completely.

Disentangling the mechanisms shaping the surface ocean microbiota [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The ocean microbiota modulates global biogeochemical cycles and changes in its configuration may have large-scale consequences. Yet, the underlying ecological mechanisms structuring it are unclear.

Demographic History and Adaptive Evolution of Indo‐Pacific Bottlenose Dolphins ($Tursiops$ $aduncus$) in Western Australia [PDF]
Demographic processes can substantially affect a species' response to changing ecological conditions, necessitating the combined consideration of genetic responses to environmental variables and neutral genetic variation.
