The effects of changing climate on faunal depth distributions determine winners and losers

open access: yes, 2014
Changing climate is predicted to impact all depths of the global oceans, yet projections of range shifts in marine faunal distributions in response to changing climate seldom evaluate potential shifts in depth distribution.

Stress Nutrition in Aquatic Animals: From Definition to Practice

open access: yesReviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Aquaculture faces numerous challenges, with stress being one of the major issues that lead to growth loss, metabolic disorders, weakened immunity, redox imbalance, and organ damage in aquatic animals. Nutritional intervention is one of the effective strategies to address these problems. Traditional research has primarily focused on the impacts

DIET AND REPRODUCTION OF LARGEMOUTH BASS IN A RECENTLY INTRODUCED POPULATION, LAKE BRACCIANO (CENTRAL ITALY)

open access: yesKnowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2007
This paper concerns a study of some aspects of largemouth bass ecology in an Italian lake (Lake Bracciano). We assessed the success and possible impact of its recent introduction (1998) upon the fish community.

Aquatic food webs in restored marshes: a stable‐isotope approach in the Gironde estuary (SW France)

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 5, July 2025.
Intertidal marshes are important habitats for nekton. However, historical draining and dyking hampered European coastal wetlands. Marsh restoration is therefore critical not only to improve their capacity to protect coastal lines but also to rehabilitate their ecological functionalities. The benefits of intertidal marsh restoration for nekton community

The effect of structural complexity, prey density, and "predator-free space" on prey survivorship at created oyster reef mesocosms. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Interactions between predators and their prey are influenced by the habitat they occupy. Using created oyster (Crassostrea virginica) reef mesocosms, we conducted a series of laboratory experiments that created structure and manipulated complexity as ...

Development of a Quantitative PCR Method for Specific and Quantitative Detection of Enterocytospora artemiae, a Microsporidian Parasite of Chinese Grass Shrimp (Palaemonetes sinensis)

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Enterocytospora artemiae (EAM) mainly parasitizes the hepatopancreas of Palaemonetes sinensis. Serious infection leads to hepatopancreatic lesions, which greatly reduce the vitality of P. sinensis. Currently, EAM is detected via conventional PCR methods.

Experimental confirmation of protandric simultaneous hermaphroditism in a Caridean shrimp outside of the genus Lysmata [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Caridean shrimps display a variety of sexual systems including gonochorism and various forms of protandry but rarely simultaneous hermaphroditism. Protandric simultaneous hermaphroditism (PSH) has thus far only been demonstrated in the genus Lysmata. The

Pyloric hypertrophy and gastric outflow obstruction in an adult ornate bichir (Polypterus ornatipinnis)

open access: yesVeterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 1, March 2025.
Abstract A 5‐year‐old, captive bred, 327 g female ornate bichir (Polypterus ornatipinnis) presented with a history of reduced appetite and cranial coelomic swelling. On physical examination, the swelling was smooth, soft, devoid of masses and consistent with an enlarged stomach. No other abnormalities were detected.

Ecological structure and function in a restored versus natural salt marsh. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Habitat reconstruction is commonly employed to restore degraded estuarine habitats and lost ecological functions. In this study, we use a combination of stable isotope analyses and macrofauna community analysis to compare the ecological structure and ...

Support for Integrated Ecosystem Assessments of NOAA’s National Estuarine Research Reserves System (NERRS), Volume I: The Impacts of Coastal Development on the Ecology and Human Well-being of Tidal Creek Ecosystems of the US Southeast [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
A study was conducted, in association with the Sapelo Island and North Carolina National Estuarine Research Reserves (NERRs), to evaluate the impacts of coastal development on sentinel habitats (e.g., tidal creek ecosystems), including potential impacts ...
