Ostracods as recorders of palaeoenvironmental change in estuaries
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
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]
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?
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?
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 ...

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 ...

Development of the late glacial Baltic basin and the succession of vegetation cover as revealed at Palaeolake Haljala, northern Estonia [PDF]
The 4.5 m thick Haljala sequence in North Estonia was studied to provide information on palaeoenvironmental changes between 13 800 and 11 300 cal yr BP.
