Assessing the extinction risk of insular, understudied marine species

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 36, Issue 2, April 2022., 2022
Abstract Hydrothermal vents are rare deep‐sea oases that house faunal assemblages with a similar density of life as coral reefs. Only approximately 600 of these hotspots are known worldwide, most only one‐third of a football field in size. With advancing development of the deep‐sea mining industry, there is an urgent need to protect these unique ...

Inter‐country differences in the cultural ecosystem services provided by cockles

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 4, Issue 1, Page 71-87, February 2022., 2022
Abstract Coastal systems provide many cultural ecosystem services (CES) to humans. Fewer studies have focused solely on CES, while those comparing CES across countries are even rarer. In the case of shellfish, considerable ecosystem services focus has been placed on nutrient remediation, with relatively little on the cultural services provided, despite

Assessing the genetic diversity in Argopecten nucleus (Bivalvia: Pectinidae), a functional hermaphrodite species with extremely low population density and self‐fertilization: Effect of null alleles

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 10, Issue 9, Page 3919-3931, May 2020., 2020
The microsatellite markers exhibited high levels of genetic diversity in the Argopecten nucleus population of Neguanje Bay (Santa Marta, Colombia), but also indicated a high homozygosity, suggesting the occurrence of the self‐fertilization associated with the low‐population densities reported for the species. Abstract Argopecten nucleus is a functional
