Recent Insights Into Alzheimer's Disease: Advances in Pathophysiology and Therapeutic Strategies

Brain Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a complex neurodegenerative disorder driven by interplay among amyloid‐β (Aβ) plaques, tau neurofibrillary tangles, inflammation and comorbid pathologies. Recent advances in biomarkers and therapeutic approvals have reshaped our understanding of its pathophysiology and treatment landscape.

Changes in soil organic matter content and quality in Amazonian mangrove forests converted to shrimp farms

Frontiers in Soil Science
Mangroves are highly efficient carbon sinks, yet they are increasingly threatened by aquaculture expansion. Moreover, the long-term impacts of shrimp farming on soil organic matter (SOM) quality and carbon sequestration in Amazonian mangroves remain ...

A review of the historic and present ecological role of aquatic and shoreline wood, from forest to deep sea

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

Simulating potential impacts of climate change on the habitats and carbon benefits of mangroves in China

Global Ecology and Conservation
Mangroves are among the most carbon-rich ecosystems in the world. However, they have experienced widespread loss due to climate change and have been reclaimed for coastal cropland and aquaculture ponds.

Tidal dynamics and mangrove carbon sequestration during the Oligo–Miocene in the South China Sea

Nature Communications, 2017
Mangroves are important carbon-rich biomes, but their long-term impact on the global carbon cycle is relatively unknown. Here, the authors show that the Oligo–Miocene mangroves in the South China Sea stored in excess of 4,000 Gt, demonstrating the long ...

Collaborative multiple change detection methods for monitoring the spatio-temporal dynamics of mangroves in Beibu Gulf, China

GIScience & Remote Sensing, 2023
Mangrove ecosystems are one of the most diverse and productive marine ecosystems around the world, although losses of global mangrove area have been occurring over the past decades.

Annabella australiensis gen. & sp. nov. (Helotiales, Cordieritidaceae) from South Australian mangroves [PDF]

, 2019
A new genus of helotialean fungi, Annabella gen. nov. (Cordieritidaceae), is described to accommodate Annabella australiensis sp. nov. This species was collected on attached decaying wood of Avicennia marina, a common mangrove species found in protected ...

How much species' biodiversity could area targets protect globally?

Ecography, EarlyView.
Protection targets for addressing biodiversity loss include protecting at least 30% of the land and ocean in ecologically representative areas, but do not specify how many or what proportion of species should be protected from extinction. Here, a systematic analysis of 77 880 marine, freshwater and terrestrial species indicates that all species could ...

Use of mangroves for aquaculture: Myanmar. [PDF]

, 2004
Aquaculture has only started to develop rapidly in the past few decades, due to better knowledge of culture species, improved methodologies and techniques in breeding, nutrition and increasing demand for food fish of high-value species such as shrimps ...

Cheia de axé (full of axé): Spirituality, resistance, and repair in Pernambuco's Afro‐Brazilian traditional communities

Feminist Anthropology, EarlyView.
Abstract This article explores how Afro‐Brazilian communities in Pernambuco respond to state‐led industrial development through culturally rooted practices of resistance and repair. Drawing on archival and ethnographic research in the coastal municipalities of Cabo de Santo Agostinho and Ipojuca, this study traces the effects of Brazil's large‐scale ...
