Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Central Australia's ngarrawa, or ‘mound springs’, are unique hydrological systems that serve as some of the only near‐permanent sources of water and continuous sediment deposition in Australia's arid interior. As such, they hold significant potential as palaeo‐climate and ‐environmental archives in a region where many aspects of past climate ...

Marine Ecology, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract Microplastic input into the ocean represents an increasing threat to marine biota and may endanger the functioning of marine ecosystems, especially in semi‐enclosed basins, such as the Mediterranean Sea. The size spectrum of microplastics overlaps with that of nano‐microplankton (2–200 μm), thus potentially misleading suspension‐feeding ...

Bio-optical investigation of phytoplankton production in the southern Benguela ecosystem [PDF]
, 2011 This study aims to evaluate various existing models for the estimation of PP in the southern Benguela ecosystem, and to investigate the photophysiological responses of phytoplankton to changes in environmental ...

The dynamical landscape of marine phytoplankton diversity [PDF]
Journal of The Royal Society Interface, 2015 Observations suggest that the landscape of marine phytoplankton assemblage might be strongly heterogeneous at the dynamical mesoscale and submesoscale (10–100 km, days to months), with potential consequences in terms of global diversity and carbon export.

Microbial communities and functional diversity in seafood
JSFA reports, EarlyView.Abstract Functional diversity encompasses ecosystem processes that enhance adaptability to environmental change. This study explores the diversity of microorganisms associated with seafood. In this paper, we present our knowledge of microbial diversity in relation to seafood.

Marine Ecology, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract Plankton play a key role in marine food webs by producing and transferring organic matter and energy to higher trophic levels. To define the trophic structure and interactions within the planktonic communities in the Gulf of Naples, we determined carbon and nitrogen stable isotope ratios in particulate organic matter (POM, <20 μm ...

The effect of nutrient limitation and oxidative stress on bromoform production from axenic cultures of marine diatoms [PDF]
, 2012 Includes bibliographical references.Bromoform is mainly produced naturally by marine organisms. The production by microalgae however is not well quantified, and the mechanism by which phytoplankton produce bromoform is not fully elucidated.

Infection of phytoplankton by aerosolized marine viruses [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2015 Significance Marine viruses constitute a major ecological and evolutionary driving force in marine ecosystems and are responsible for cycling of major nutrients; however, their dispersal mechanisms remain underexplored. By using one of the most established host–pathogen planktonic model systems we provide strong evidence that specific

Limnology and Oceanography Bulletin, EarlyView.Abstract Statistical analysis is a cornerstone of scientific research, yet young researchers in aquatic sciences often struggle when analyses begin without a clearly defined research question or a solid understanding of the data structure. This disconnect between data collection and analytical decision‐making recurrently drives unreliable findings ...

Seasonal variation in marine C:N:P stoichiometry: can the composition of seston explain stable Redfield ratios? [PDF]
, 2011 Seston is suspended particulate organic matter, comprising a mixture of autotrophic, heterotrophic and detrital material. Despite variable proportions of these components, marine seston often exhibits relatively small deviations from the Redfield ratio ...
