On predicting particle capture rates in aquatic ecosystems.
PLoS ONE, 2021 Recent advances in understanding the capture of moving suspended particles in aquatic ecosystems have opened up new possibilities for predicting rates of suspension feeding, larval settlement, seagrass pollination and sediment removal. Drawing on results

Marine Gel Interactions with Hydrophilic and Hydrophobic Pollutants
Gels, 2021 Microgels play critical roles in a variety of processes in the ocean, including element cycling, particle interactions, microbial ecology, food web dynamics, air–sea exchange, and pollutant distribution and transport.

Ocean carbon sequestration: Particle fragmentation by copepods as a significant unrecognised factor?
Bioessays, 2020 Ocean biology helps regulate global climate by fixing atmospheric CO2 and exporting it to deep waters as sinking detrital particles. New observations demonstrate that particle fragmentation is the principal factor controlling the depth to which these ...

Atmo-ecometabolomics: a novel atmospheric particle chemical characterization methodology for ecological research [PDF]
Environmental Monitoring and Assessment, 2019 Aerosol particles play important roles in processes controlling the composition of the atmosphere and function of ecosystems. A better understanding of the composition of aerosol particles is beginning to be recognized as critical for ecological research to further comprehend the link between aerosols and ecosystems.

Borneo coral reefs subject to high sediment loads show evidence of resilience to various environmental stressors [PDF]
, 2019 For reefs in South East Asia the synergistic effects of rapid land development, insufficient environmental policies and a lack of enforcement has led to poor water quality and compromised coral health from increased sediment and pollution.

Evolutionary connectionism: algorithmic principles underlying the evolution of biological organisation in evo-devo, evo-eco and evolutionary transitions [PDF]
, 2015 The mechanisms of variation, selection and inheritance, on which evolution by natural selection depends, are not fixed over evolutionary time. Current evolutionary biology is increasingly focussed on understanding how the evolution of developmental ...
