Use of virtual reality to engage undergraduate students in environmental field experiences

Future in Educational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Field‐based experiences enhance cognitive and affective skill sets of undergraduate students. Although field‐based learning is a highly effective pedagogical modality, it is not accessible to all students, necessitating the development and evaluation of alternate modalities that convey equivalent benefits.

The role of serine hydroxymethyltransferase 1 (CHSHMT1) in the regulation of the key osmolyte glycine in the estuarine Hong Kong oyster Crassostrea hongkongensis under osmotic stress

Aquaculture Reports
The estuarine Crassostrea hongkongensis is the major cultured oyster species in the South China, and mass mortality induced by hyper-salinity has heavily damaged the oyster farming, especially during dry season.

Antifungal peptides in marine invertebrates

Invertebrate Survival Journal, 2009
A majority of terrestrial and marine organisms use to fend off a wide range of microorganisms, including bacteria and fungi by employing “antimicrobial peptides (AMPs)” that are ribosomally synthesized from proteinogenic amino acids.

Microbes as manipulators of egg size and developmental evolution

mBio
Marine invertebrates mainly reproduce by energy-poor eggs that develop into feeding larvae or energy-rich eggs that develop into non-feeding larvae.

The relationship between cellular protein content and selenium accumulation in freshwater microalgae

Integrated Environmental Assessment and Management, EarlyView.
Abstract Variability in the bioconcentration of selenium (Se) by primary producers at the base of the food web results in uncertainty in predictions of bioaccumulation and ecological risk to higher trophic level organisms. Water chemistry, speciation of Se, and periphyton community composition have all been suggested as factors that contribute to ...

Understanding stoichiometric adjustments in a freshwater plant: Responses to sediment and water nutrient dynamics across lake trophic gradients

Limnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite ongoing efforts to reduce nutrient inputs, eutrophication continues to disrupt biogeochemical cycles and destabilize freshwater food webs. In this study, we examine the stoichiometric responses of the freshwater plant Myriophyllum spicatum under varied environmental conditions across lakes of differing trophic status.

The essential role of large research vessels in marine ecosystem observations and ocean sustainability

Limnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Our understanding of marine ecosystems and ability to manage them sustainably has come from multidisciplinary observations made repeatedly over long periods of time. These long‐term ecosystem observations depend on the capabilities of large research vessels, which play an essential role in the collection of global ocean observations.
