Polychaete Assisted Sand Filter In Treating Synthetic Wastewater [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This study is about polychaete assisted sand filter in treating synthetic wastewater. To test the application of this concept, polychaete assisted sand filters were experimentally tested for their ability to treat synthetic wastewater.

Faunal Composition of the Sumisu Caldera Hydrothermal Vent Field as a Key Baseline for Conservation in Light of Deep‐Sea Mining

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 34, Issue 11, November 2024.
ABSTRACT Hydrothermal vents are biodiversity hotspots on the deep seafloor powered by chemosynthetic primary production, inhabited by a specially adapted fauna whose composition varies between regions. Sumisu Caldera, located approximately 500 km south of Tokyo, hosts a hot vent with an unusual species composition among the Izu–Ogasawara Arc sites and ...

Sediment dynamics shape macrofauna mobility traits and abundance on tidal flats

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 69, Issue 10, Page 2278-2293, October 2024.
Abstract Tidal flats are valuable ecosystems that depend on complex biogeomorphic processes between organisms and sediment transport. Climate change has led to a rise in extreme weather events, such as storms. This, in turn, has increased sediment dynamics and created risks for the benthic communities inhabiting tidal flats.

Diet variation of common smelt across a salinity gradient in coastal lakes on Rēkohu (Chatham Island)

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 58, Issue 3, Page 404-421, September 2024.
ABSTRACT Sea level rise threatens ecosystem function in coastal lakes by increasing salinity and altering community composition. As mobile generalists, fish have considerable influence on the stability of a system by impacting trophic network structure.

Life history and production of Capitella capitata (Polychaeta: Capitellidae) in Río de la Plata Estuary (Argentina) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
A benthic survey was carried out from November 1998 to December 1999 in the tidal flats of Bahía Samborombón (Río de la Plata estuary, Argentina), in order to study the population structure, reproductive aspects, growth and secondary production of ...

Impactos do pisoteio humano na fauna de um costão rochoso do litoral de São Paulo, no sudeste brasileiro [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Increased tourist activity in coastal regions demands management strategies to reduce impacts on rocky shores. The highly populated coastal areas in southeastern Brazil are an example of degradation caused by development of industry and tourism.

Marine sediment infauna‐based environmental assessment using metabarcoding identifies potential impact indicator species

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 6, Issue 3, May–June 2024.
Intertidal infaunal community data are obtained via: (1) morphological identification of macroinvertebrates from sediment cores, (2) cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) DNA metabarcoding of the same pooled macroinvertebrate specimens, and (3) 18S ribosomal RNA (18S) DNA metabarcoding of benthic meiofauna from small volume sediment surface scrapes.

Check-list of interstitial polychaetes from intertidal and shallow subtidal soft bottoms of Tenerife, Canary Islands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
A check-list of polychaete species from two stations on the south coast of Tenerife (Los Abrigos and Los Cristianos) at two different tidal levels, intertidal and shallow subtidal (3 m depth) is presented.

Impacts of in vivo and in vitro exposures to tamoxifen: comparative effects on human cells and marine organisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Tamoxifen (TAM) is a first generation-SERM administered for hormone receptor-positive (HER+) breast cancer in both pre- and post-menopausal patients and may undergo metabolic activation in organisms that share similar receptors and thus face comparable ...

Myoinhibitory peptide regulates feeding in the marine annelid Platynereis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BACKGROUND: During larval settlement and metamorphosis, marine invertebrates undergo changes in habitat, morphology, behavior and physiology. This change between life-cycle stages is often associated with a change in diet or a transition between a non ...
