Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement: Tool to Mitigate Climate Change

In the face of climate change challenges, characterized by rising atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations and the consequential threats of approaching climate tipping points, including sea level rise, more wildfires, and escalating heatwaves, there exists a pressing need to explore effective strategies to mitigate these CO2-related issues.

From Consumer Plastics to Aquatic Toxicants: Oxidative and Endocrine Effects of Microplastics on Fathead Minnow (Pimephales promelas) Larvae

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Secondary microplastics (MPs) from single‐use consumer products are rapidly becoming one of the most persistent and widespread pollutants of our time. Freshwater systems act as early sinks for MPs where fragmentation and additive leaching expose aquatic life to a broad spectrum of toxic compounds.

The response of the Olympia oyster (Ostrea lurida) to increased alkalinity : implications for ocean alkalinity enhancement

Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement (OAE) is a proposed marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR) technique that increases the ocean’s capacity to absorb carbon dioxide and mitigate ocean acidification by shifting dissolved inorganic carbon speciation towards ...

The alkalinity generation potential of olivine and oyster shell for laboratory experiments: testing the effects of ocean alkalinity enhancement

Environmental Research Communications
Ocean alkalinity enhancement has emerged as a predominant line of marine carbon dioxide removal research. Of paramount importance associated to OAE application is the need to understand the biological impacts.

Nitrogen stimulation of soil carbon content differs between two types of mycorrhizal‐dominated ecosystems

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Increasing nitrogen (N) deposition has been suggested to favour arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) plants over ectomycorrhizal (ECM) plants, but how mycorrhizal association mediates N impacts on soil organic carbon (SOC) remains unclear.

Hox Gene Variation Drives Morphological Specialization of Humpback Grouper Cromileptes altivelis

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Cromileptes altivelis exhibits a distinctive “sunken head and humpback” morphology, formed through cranial remodeling. Genetic analyses identified unique amino acid variants in Hoxa7a and Hoxa10b, with functional tests confirming their role in enhancing osteoblast activity and driving cranial remodeling.

Enhanced fish detection sensitivity in aquatic systems using environmental RNA

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Environmental RNA (eRNA) can potentially augment the biological monitoring ability of the established environmental DNA (eDNA) application in conservation. Despite faster degradation, environmental RNA could offer unique advantages: it may help reduce the legacy signal compared to eDNA, provide insights into physiological status through gene ...

Variability and control of the surface ocean carbonate system observed from ships of opportunity

, 2014
The surface ocean plays an important role in the marine carbon cycle linking the atmosphere and the deep ocean. There are substantial variations in the surface ocean carbonate system in different environments and on various time scales, resulting from ...
