RETRACE Project: How to Enhance Resilience to Climate Risks in Pacific and Arctic Indigenous Communities?

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Risk management has evolved to analyze risks in a systemic way, integrating local knowledge with the abstract concept of resilience, which is now an imperative for vulnerable and exposed communities. However, existing decision‐support tools are mainly focused on technical‐functional aspects and, although based on rigorous and scientific ...

Tropicalization strengthens consumer pressure on habitat-forming seaweeds

Scientific Reports, 2017
Ocean warming is driving species poleward, causing a ‘tropicalization’ of temperate ecosystems around the world. Increasing abundances of tropical herbivores on temperate reefs could accelerate declines in habitat-forming seaweeds with devastating ...

Toward a mechanistic characterisation of marine heatwaves

Scientific Reports
A mechanistic understanding of marine heatwaves (MHWs) requires robust frameworks for detection, tracking, and attribution. Conventional pointwise definitions, which identify MHWs pixel by pixel relative to fixed thresholds, have enabled global analyses but neglect the event-scale spatiotemporal evolution and underlying drivers.

Marine heatwaves in a changing climate [PDF]

Nature, 2019
Heatwaves in the ocean can rapidly disrupt marine ecosystems and the economies that depend on them. A global analysis of these events casts light on their causes and sets the stage for revealing how they might change in the future. The drivers of acute periods of abnormal warmth in the ocean.

Climate‐Modulated Particle Toxicity: Acute Exposure to an Environmentally Informed Microplastic Mixture Induces Sex‐Dependent Systemic Reorganization in Swiss Mice

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microplastic (MP) pollution is widely recognized as an emerging environmental threat. Yet, most studies still rely on controlled experimental conditions that poorly reflect environmental complexity, potentially underestimating risks under realistic scenarios, particularly during short‐term exposures. Here, we tested whether acute oral exposure

Heatwave duration, intensity and timing as drivers of performance in larvae of a marine invertebrate

Scientific Reports
In marine ecosystems, crustaceans face an alarming threat from the increasing frequency and intensity of marine heatwaves as their early planktonic stages are particularly temperature sensitive.

Rapid loss, and slow recovery, of coral reef structural complexity resulting from a prolonged marine heatwave

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Using Structure‐from‐Motion photogrammetry in a longitudinal study, we show that although coral reef habitat complexity had declined significantly by the end of the most prolonged tropical marine heatwave on record, no further losses were detected and 3 years later the reef had begun to recover this critical ecosystem function.

Trade‐offs When Promoting Sustainability: Changing Attitudes or Changing Behaviour? Arbitrages dans la promotion de la durabilité : changer les mentalités ou changer les comportements? Abwägungen bei der Förderung von Nachhaltigkeit – ist es ein Einstellungswandel oder eine Verhaltensänderung, die erforderlich ist?

EuroChoices, EarlyView.
Summary Many appeals to farmers to adopt sustainable practices are currently relying on pressure factors that may be inducing green and yet unsustainable behaviour. Different trade‐offs are involved in this transition but are normally overlooked.

Metabolome Diversity Enhances Resistance of Intertidal Clams to Thermal Stress

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Meretrix species are widely distributed intertidal bivalves in China with significant ecological and economic importance, which are sensitive to thermal stress. Our results showed that thermal environments of clam habitats shaped metabolome diversity, which can enhance the resistance of intertidal clams to thermal stress.
