Larval Genomics as a Viable, Fisheries‐Independent Tool for Investigating Population Structure in Tropical Pacific Tunas

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 8, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding how dispersal, life history, and environmental variability shape genetic connectivity in the open ocean remains a central challenge in evolutionary biology. Highly migratory marine predators like tunas have traditionally been considered genetically homogeneous across ocean basins, yet emerging genomic evidence suggests that ...

New records of marine invertebrates from São Tomé and Príncipe (Eastern tropical Atlantic) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The following species are recorded from the coasts of São Tomé and Príncipe for the first time: the ciliate Zoothamnium niveum, the black coral Antipathella wollastoni, the zoanthid Isaurus tubercularis, and the shrimp Latreutes fucorum.

Deep coral oases in the South Tyrrhenian Sea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A Mediterranean ‘‘roche du large’’ ecosystem, represented by four rocky shoals, located a few miles apart on a muddy bottom at 70–130 m depth in the gulf of St.

Contemporary Foraging of the Hawaiian Monk Seal as a Retrospective Lens for Commercial Fishing and Its Relevance to Ecosystem‐Based Fishery Management

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT This retrospective analysis explores how historical fishing activity (1948–2009) at French Frigate Shoals (FFS) can be examined in relation to the foraging ecology of Hawaiian monk seals. We bring together fisheries catch records, monk seal demographic information, and ecological studies on prey, competitors, and predators to evaluate ...

Temperate mesophotic ecosystems: gaps and perspectives of an emerging conservation challenge for the Mediterranean Sea

open access: yesThe European Zoological Journal, 2019
Mesophotic habitats, hosting benthic assemblages totally unknown and unexpected in the early 2000s, are attracting an increasing interest from scientists.

The future of coral reefs subject to rapid climate change: Lessons from natural extreme environments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Global climate change and localized anthropogenic stressors are driving rapid declines in coral reef health. In vitro experiments have been fundamental in providing insight into how reef organisms will potentially respond to future climates.

Evaluating the possible role of bottom currents and internal waves in shaping seafloor morphology in a mesophotic reef

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 3, Page 593-619, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Mesophotic reefs are located in low light conditions which, depending on the region, are usually found in water depths greater than ~30 m. They are less affected by ocean warming than reefs found in shallower water depths and thus might become increasingly important for the sustainability of marine biodiversity.

Structure of Mesophotic Reef Fish Assemblages in the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Mesophotic coral ecosystems (MCEs) support diverse communities of marine organisms with changes in community structure occurring along a depth gradient. In recent years, MCEs have gained attention due to their depths that provide protection from natural ...

The sponge holobiont in a changing ocean: from microbes to ecosystems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The recognition that all macroorganisms live in symbiotic association with microbial communities has opened up a new field in biology. Animals, plants, and algae are now considered holobionts, complex ecosystems consisting of the host, the microbiota ...

Deep refuges: the distribution of marine fish in warming subtropics

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2026, Issue 3, March 2026.
In light of global climate change, identifying critical marine habitats and conserving them is essential. Marine conservation planning recommends designating cooler habitats as marine protected areas. The ‘deep‐reef refugia' hypothesis suggests that deeper, suitable habitats may allow species to undergo the evolutionary changes necessary to adapt to ...
