Ostracods as recorders of palaeoenvironmental change in estuaries

open access: yes, 2017
Ostracods are microscopic, aquatic Crustacea with calcareous carapaces and are common components of estuarine ecosystems. The valves of ostracods are commonly preserved in sediment and thus can be very useful for reconstruction of palaeoenvironmental ...

Understanding marine biodiversity patterns and drivers: The fall of Icarus

open access: yesMarine Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiversity patterns are fundamental in our understanding of the distribution of life, ecosystem function, and conservation. In this concept analysis, A survey of the existing knowledge on marine biodiversity patterns and drivers across latitudes, longitudes, and depths indicates that none of the postulated patterns represent a rule.

Taxonomy and Ecology of Fresh-Water Ostracods of South-Central Texas [PDF]

open access: yes, 1961
The Ostracoda (Gk. ostrakon, a shell, and eidos, form) are extremely interesting crustaceans that differ from most crustaceans in possessing strongly calcified, bivalve carapaces, Ostracods occur in great abundance in all types of waters, both marine and

Are Cardinium infections causing asexuality in non-marine ostracods?

open access: yes, 2020
Endosymbiotic bacteria manipulating host biology and reproduction, and sometimes also causing parthenogenesis, are known from many metazoan taxa.

The Greenland–Scotland Ridge in a Changing Ocean: Time to Act?

open access: yesMarine Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Greenland–Scotland Ridge is a submarine mountain that rises up to 500 m below the sea surface and extends from the east coast of Greenland to the continental shelf of Iceland and across the Faroe Islands to Scotland. The ridge not only separates deeper ocean basins on either side, that is, the North Atlantic and Arctic oceans, but also ...

Late Glacial and Holocene Paleoenvironmental Reconstruction of the Submerged Karst Basin Pirovac Bay on the Eastern Adriatic Coast

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
This study focuses on the analysis of sediment core retrieved from the deepest part (25 m) of Pirovac Bay. A long sedimentary sequence (7.45 m) supplemented by a shorter sediment core (1.45 m) from a shallower part of the bay was analyzed for ...

Fatores que podem afetar a criação e manutenção de caramujos infectados e a produção de cercárias de Schistosoma masoni Factors that can affect the breeding and maintenance of infected snails and yield of cercariae of Schistosoma mansoni

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1987
Foram estudados fatores que afetam a produção em massa de cercárias do Schistosoma mansoni. Rotíferos e ostracodos causaram diminuição de produção em nossa colônia.

Investigating the efficacy of tidal wetland restoration in enhancing aquatic food web resources for native fishes

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Endangered fish species, such as Delta smelt (Hypomesus transpacificus), in the San Francisco Estuary are threatened by a multitude of anthropogenic stressors. Tidal wetland restoration can partially mitigate these stressors by increasing food availability of aquatic invertebrate prey, but the efficacy of restoration remains ...
