Direct contribution of invertebrate holobionts to methane release from coastal sediments
Sediment macrofauna play a vital role in sustaining aquatic food webs and biogeochemical cycles. Previous research demonstrated that bioturbation indirectly affects methane (CH4) dynamics through mobilization of porewater and alteration of microbial ...

Feasibility of restoring native oyster reefs in highly modified urban estuaries
Abstract Introduction Urbanized estuaries are highly altered systems characterized by modified shorelines, degraded marine habitats, and abundant non‐native species. In South Australia's largest urbanized estuary, community‐based restoration initiatives aim to restore native flat oyster reefs (Ostrea angasi) lost over a century ago.

Sculpting micro-, meio-, and macrofauna
Фокусуємося на: біорізноманітті Північного Льодовитого океану та його дна, приділяючи особливу увагу менш відомим видам, таким як форамініфери. Які види мікро-, мейо-, та макрофауни живуть на дні океану і як вони виглядають? Мета навчання: У цій вправі учні визначать (один, два або більше) види форамініфер, що живуть на дні Північного Льодовитого ...

Towards an ecological index for tropical soil quality based on soil macrofauna [PDF]
The objective of this work was to construct a simple index based on the presence/absence of different groups of soil macrofauna to determine the ecological quality of soils.

Abstract Introduction Agricultural activities are a major driver of biodiversity loss and ecosystem degradation in subtropical streams, often altering macroinvertebrate community structure and associated ecosystem functions. Although restoration strategies increasingly target these impacts, the relative importance of riparian shading and in‐stream ...

Low faunal diversity on Maltese sandy beaches : fact or artefact? [PDF]
Eight sandy beaches on Malta and two on Gozo were sampled for macrofauna to test the hypothesis that Maltese beaches have an intrinsically low diversity.

ABSTRACT This research examines the spatial and geochemical interactions between mat‐forming microorganisms and thalassinid shrimp in an intertidal flat situated on the shores of Willapa Bay, Washington, USA. The study serves as a contemporary analog for the relationships between mats and burrowing organisms in deep time.

Biological Degradation of Phthalates: From Bioremediation to Plastic Waste Valorization
Phthalic acid isomers play a key role in the plastics industry, but pose significant environmental and health concerns. This review explores the microbial biodegradation of phthalates and their esters, focusing on bacterial enzymes, catabolic pathways, and cellular uptake mechanisms of phthalates.
