Diet of juvenile skipjack herring Alosa chrysochloris: Ontogenetic shifts, predator–prey size ratios and mouth gape allometry

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The skipjack herring Alosa chrysochloris inhabits Gulf of Mexico drainages, primarily the Mississippi River Basin, and estuarine environments in the Gulf of Mexico. The trophic ecology of the skipjack herring is poorly understood, therefore we quantified the length, mouth gape and gut contents of juvenile skipjack herring from the Mississippi ...

The state of commercial augmentative biological control: plenty of natural enemies, but a frustrating lack of uptake [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Augmentative biological control concerns the periodical release of natural enemies. In com- mercial augmentative biological control, natural enemies are mass-reared in biofactories for release in large numbers to obtain an immediate control of pests. The

CO2 leakage can cause loss of benthic biodiversity in submarine sands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
One of the options to mitigate atmospheric CO2 increase is CO2 Capture and Storage in sub-seabed geological formations. Since predicting long-term storage security is difficult, different CO2 leakage scenarios and impacts on marine ecosystems require ...

Ecosystem recovery in restored saltmarshes detected through invertebrate communities

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Saltmarsh ecosystems support rich biodiversity and provide key ecosystem services. Invertebrate communities underpin essential processes such as nutrient cycling and decomposition. However, saltmarshes have been widely degraded by land use change.

The role of glacier mice in the invertebrate colonisation of glacial surfaces: the moss balls of the Falljökull, Iceland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Glacier surfaces have a surprisingly complex ecology. Cryoconite holes contain diverse invertebrate communities while other invertebrates, such as Collembola often graze on algae and windblown dead organic on the glacier surface.

Progress and Challenges in Phylogenomics and Genomics of Lophotrochozoa/Spiralia

open access: yesZoologica Scripta, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lophotrochozoa is one of the three major bilaterian groups comprising more than half of the bilaterian phyla. Lophotrochozoa includes among others Mollusca, Annelida, Platyhelminthes and Rotifera. Despite representing such a large proportion of animal diversity, they are historically understudied and genomic resources have been scarce. However,
