Interannual summer biodiversity changes in ichthyoplankton assemblages of the Strait of Sicily (Central Mediterranean) over the period 2001–2016

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Interannual fluctuations in the structure and the composition of ichthyoplankton assemblages in the pelagic waters of the Strait of Sicily (SoS, Central Mediterranean) were investigated, trying to relate them to the observed variability in oceanographic ...

Bayesian Network Analysis reveals resilience of the jellyfish Aurelia aurita to an Irish Sea regime shift

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Robust time-series of direct observations of jellyfish abundance are not available for many ecosystems, leaving it difficult to determine changes in jellyfish abundance, the possible causes (e.g. climate change) or the consequences (e.g. trophic cascades)

Diversity, Abundance, and Ecological Roles of Planktonic Fungi in Marine Environments

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2022
Fungi are considered terrestrial and oceans are a “fungal desert”. However, with the considerable progress made over past decades, fungi have emerged as morphologically, phylogenetically, and functionally diverse components of the marine water column ...

voluModel: Modelling species distributions in three‐dimensional space

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Ecological niche modelling (ENM), species distribution modelling and related spatial analytical methods were first developed in two‐dimensional (2‐D) terrestrial systems; many common ENM workflows organize and analyse geographically structured occurrence
