Integrating ocean observations across body‐size classes to deliver benthic invertebrate abundance and distribution information

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 692-706, October 2023., 2023
Abstract Invertebrate animals living at the seafloor make up a prominent component of life globally, spanning 10 orders of magnitude in body size over 71% of Earth's surface. However, integrating information across sizes and sampling methodologies has limited our understanding of the influence of natural variation, climate change and human activity ...

Small‐organelle‐enriched metagenomics: An improved method for environmental DNA‐based identification of marine plankton

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, Volume 21, Issue 4, Page 178-191, April 2023., 2023
Abstract Understanding marine biodiversity is of paramount importance. Recently, we developed a polymerase chain reaction (PCR)‐free small‐organelle‐enriched metagenomics (SoEM) method with enhanced performance in species identification compared to multimarker DNA metabarcoding. However, this method has a problem of applicability for field surveys, for

Calcification accretion units (CAUs): A standardized approach for quantifying recruitment and calcium carbonate accretion in marine habitats

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 7, Page 1436-1446, July 2022., 2022
Abstract Standardized metrics that quantify a component of ecosystem functioning are essential for evaluating the current status of coastal marine habitats and for monitoring how ecologically important ecosystems are changing in response to global and local environmental change.

The Asia‐Pacific Biodiversity Observation Network: 10‐year achievements and new strategies to 2030

open access: yesEcological Research, Volume 36, Issue 2, Page 232-257, March 2021., 2021
The Asia‐Pacific Biodiversity Observation Network (APBON) was launched in 2009 to increase exchange of knowledge and know‐how between institutions and researchers concerning biodiversity science research in the Asia‐Pacific (AP) region and thereby contribute to evidence‐based decision making and policy‐making.

Sandy Beach Macrofauna of Yucatán State (Mexico) and Oil Industry Development in the Gulf of Mexico: First Approach for Detecting Environmental Impacts

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2020
The biodiversity of the coastal ecosystems in the Gulf of Mexico is threatened by anthropogenic activities of various kinds. The predominant portion of the land-sea margin in the State of Yucatán consists of exposed sandy beaches.

Essential krill species habitat resolved by seasonal upwelling and ocean circulation models within the large marine ecosystem of the California Current System

open access: yesEcography, Volume 43, Issue 10, Page 1536-1549, October 2020., 2020
Due to their global distribution, high biomass and energy content, euphausiids (krill) are important prey for many mid and upper trophic level marine organisms. Understanding drivers of krill habitat is essential for forecasting range shifts, and to better understand the response of krill predators to climate change.

Biodiversity monitoring in rocky shores: Challenges of devising a globally applicable and cost-effective protocol [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Large-scale coastal monitoring programs that focus on long-term inter-annual and seasonal community vari ability are rare mostly because they are costly, logistically complex and require coordination by groups of dedicated scientists.
