Antifouling capacity of substrate materials and their effects on settlement and post‐settlement survival of Acropora palmata and Orbicella faveolata

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction In coral reef restoration, sexual reproduction is a key methodology to enhance coral population recovery. However, post‐settlement survival remains a major bottleneck, as spat are particularly vulnerable to competition with fouling organisms.

Kelp‐boulder transplants for habitat restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Degraded habitats present a major barrier to the survival and recovery of threatened marine species, particularly where structural or biogenic complexity has been lost, and natural regeneration ability is uncertain. Despite growing interest in habitat restoration, techniques rarely deliver rapid improvements at the necessary ...

Global patterns in multi‐realm and multi‐habitat ecological restoration: implications for research, practice, and monitoring

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Ecological restoration projects are rapidly expanding in size, complexity, and frequency globally, driven by international agreements and an increased recognition of the efficacy of actions for biodiversity. Upscaling restoration will increasingly necessitate the restoration of multiple physically or functionally connected ...

A Comparison between the Production of Edible Macroalgae Worldwide and in the Mediterranean Sea

open access: yesOceans
Macroalgae are beneficial for consumers and producers due to their high productivity, their chemical composition and their efficient cultivation without additional feed.

Not all rhodoliths need a bed–depositional mechanisms in shallow water Sporolithon nodosum rhodoliths from the Whangaparaoa peninsula (North Island, New Zealand)

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rhodoliths, formed by crustose coralline algae (CCA), are prominent components in carbonate platform deposits, contributing to the characteristic rhodalgal facies. Their formation is influenced by both biological and physical factors, and under specific conditions, they can accumulate, forming extensive rhodolith beds.

Carrageenan catabolism is encoded by a complex regulon in marine heterotrophic bacteria

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Carrageenans, major cell wall polysaccharides of red macroalgae, are metabolised by marine heterotrophic bacteria through unclear mechanisms. Here, the authors identify an unusual polysaccharide-utilization locus encoding carrageenan catabolism in a ...

Species Composition Varies Among Artificial and Natural Benthic Substrates Within Estuarine Environments

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 6, December 2026.
ABSTRACT As the commercial development of aquaculture grows, assessing the impact of culture gear on local marine communities becomes increasingly imperative. Gear associated with off‐bottom oyster aquaculture introduces artificial structure to areas that would otherwise be devoid of structural complexity and heterogeneity.

Dielectric Relaxation, Water Sorption Thermodynamics, and Humidity‐Sensing Mechanisms of Compressed Ulva Biomass Pellets

open access: yesApplied Research, Volume 5, Issue 6, December 2026.
This study investigates the moisture sorption thermodynamics, dielectric relaxation behavior, and humidity‐sensing performance of compressed Ulva biomass pellets. The findings demonstrate that sustainable macroalgal pellets provide low hysteresis (~1.63%) and wide‐range sensitivity for green environmental diagnostics.

Using Natural Fibres and Indigenous Knowledge to Develop Alternatives to Plastic Ropes Used in Mussel Aquaculture

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 4, December 2026.
Aquaculture relies extensively on plastic materials, creating a need for lower‐plastic alternatives that retain the functional properties required for production. This study combined mātauranga Māori and science to identify natural plant fibres suitable for manufacturing mussel ropes and to evaluate their ability to catch and retain Greenshell mussel ...
