Simulation of Marine Towing Cable Dynamics Using a Finite Elements Method

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
A numerical model to study the towing maneuver for floating and submerged bodies has been developed. The proposed model is based on the dynamic study of a catenary line moving between two bodies, one body with imposed motion, and the other free to move ...

Cryptobenthic reef fishes may not be safe from invasive lionfish (Pterois spp. Oken, 1817)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Lionfish (Pterois spp.) are hypothesized to negatively influence cryptobenthic reef fish assemblages through predation. We evaluated these potential effects on Caribbean reefs in Costa Rica and tropical reefs in Brazil. Brazil provided a reference condition for cryptobenthic assemblages prior to lionfish invasion, while the Costa Rica sites ...

Characteristics and driving mechanisms of mixing and stratification in Suances estuary using the potential energy anomaly budget equation

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
The environmental variability of rivers and tides create complex mixing patterns, which modulate the estuarine ecosystem services. Therefore, a thorough understanding of these systems is vital, not only for their protection but also for their recovery ...

Durum Wheat cv. Svevo Reference Genome Rel.2.0: A Comprehensive Tool for Wheat Genomics

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Advancements in plant genome sequencing and assembly have enabled the production of increasingly accurate and contiguous genome sequences. Here, we present the chromosome‐level assembly of the durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. ssp. durum, cv. Svevo) reference genome produced using accurate long‐reads, optical mapping and Hi‐C. The new assembly

Environmental Justice in the Brazilian Coastal Food Systems: Policies, Institutions, and Knowledges on Small‐Scale Fishers and Energy Development

open access: yesWorld Food Policy, Volume 12, Issue 2, November 2026.
ABSTRACT This study explores environmental justice issues in coastal food systems, focusing on conflicts between small‐scale fisheries and the energy sector due to differing goals in managing food and energy sources. It does so by examining the interdependence between institutions, policies, and different types of knowledge; key elements in building ...

Linking biosurface reactivity and photosynthesis to investigate Sphagnum mosses as ecosystem engineers

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 252, Issue 1, Page 69-86, October 2026.
Habit photographs of field‐collected and in vitro‐cultivated (c) Sphagnum spp. used for experiments. Summary Sphagnum mosses regulate peatland carbon storage, hydrology, nutrient cycling, and ecosystem functioning. However, the links among their surface chemistry, photosynthesis, responses to submersion and pH remain poorly understood.

Contrasting Temporal Dynamics of Ostracod (Crustacea) Communities in Protected and Impacted Areas in a Brazilian Floodplain

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Environmental integrity is vital for the long‐term preservation of freshwater biodiversity, which is currently among the most threatened on Earth due to anthropogenic pressures such as dam construction. The present study investigated the temporal responses of ostracod communities over 8 years (2017–2024) in the Upper Paraná River floodplain ...

Coastal engineering infrastructure impacts Blue Carbon habitats distribution and ecosystem functions

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Intertidal estuarine habitats (e.g., saltmarshes and tidal flats) provide important ecosystem services to society, including coastal protection, food provision and Corg sequestration.

Detecting Antibiotic Resistance in Strains of Selected Gram‐Negative Bacterial Species Using Raman Spectroscopy

open access: yesJournal of Raman Spectroscopy, Volume 57, Issue 9, Page 1554-1564, September 2026.
Raman spectroscopy successfully identified antibiotic‐resistant Gram‐negative strains. Resistant strains of four bacterial species were discriminated from sensitive ones with 99.1% accuracy using PLS regression. The method allows for rapid, label‐free detection of antibiotic resistance.
