Habitat characteristics drive fish recruitment enhancement in threatened coastal nursery habitats
Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 5, May 2026.Our findings underscore the importance of habitat attributes and physical settings as the key predictors of fish enhancement across threatened coastal nurseries of North America. Restoration and management efforts should aim to optimize these factors to maximize fish recruitment potential amid ecosystem degradation. Abstract Structured coastal habitats

Crustacean and Mollusc Shell Proteins: Origin, Structure, and Functionality
Journal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 5, May 2026.ABSTRACT Crustacean and molluscan processing as seafood generates a significant amount of shell waste annually, owing to the dense, mineral‐rich composition of the exoskeleton. Although valorization efforts have mostly focused on chitin and chitosan, the protein fraction remains underutilized despite its prominent nutritional, functional, and sensory ...
