Spatio-temporal genetic structure and gene flow between two distinct shell morphs of the planktonic developing periwinkle Littorina striata (Mollusca : Prosobranchia) [PDF]

, 1998
The planktonic developing periwinkle Littorina striata produces both nodulose and smooth shells, which were originally regarded as 2 separate species. Although both morphs occur microsympatrically, their distribution is not random.

Hermit crabs (Pagurus spp.) at their northernmost range: distribution, abundance and shell use in the European Arctic [PDF]

, 2015
Hermit crabs are important components of Arctic benthic systems, yet baseline data on their densities and distribution patterns in this rapidly changing region are still scarce.

Combining co‐introduction with patch‐size optimization as a novel strategy to maximize seagrass restoration

Ecological Applications, Volume 35, Issue 4, June 2025.
Abstract Coastal ecosystem engineers, such as mussels, oysters, salt marsh grasses, and seagrasses, typically shape their environment by ameliorating stressors when they grow beyond a critical population size. In doing so, they not only facilitate themselves but also provide habitat for diverse communities, which in turn, can engage in reciprocal ...

Trematode Infections inLittorina littoreaon the New Hampshire Coast [PDF]

, 2012
The prevalence of parasite infections in Littorina littorea (Common Periwinkle) was examined at 16 rocky intertidal sites along the New Hampshire coastline over three summers (2006 to 2008).

Recent Advances in Aquaponic Systems: A Critical Review

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 17, Issue 3, June 2025.
This article critically examines recent advances in aquaponic systems, identifies knowledge gaps, and proposes future research directions to enhance system performance, economic viability, and environmental sustainability. ABSTRACT Aquaponics, a symbiotic farming of plants and fish, is a promising solution to address global food security.

Squishy and Crunchy Invasive Invertebrates: Environmental DNA Is Not Shed Equally

Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 2, March/April 2025.
Environmental DNA has been used to detect invasive species in aquatic ecosystems with varying degrees of success. Here, using laboratory experiments and a two‐year time series, we found that squishy species (those lacking an exoskeleton) generally shed eDNA consistently with their abundance, whereas crunchy species (those with a shell or exoskeleton ...

Towards a More Nuanced Understanding of Long‐Distance Rafting: Case Studies From the Southern Ocean

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 34, Issue 2, February 2025.
ABSTRACT Problem Rafting is now recognised as a key process influencing the distribution and connectivity of several marine and coastal species. Rafting scenarios are, however, often invoked in ways that do not account for clear differences in biogeographic outcomes. Here, we illustrate the value of utilising multiple lines of evidence (e.g.

“The central hollowness”: James Merrill and the Annihilation of the Self [PDF]

, 2017
James merrill's strange—and at times inaccessible— trilogy The Changing Light at Sandover is very different in conception from his lyrical poetry. Merrill displays a distinct concern with appearances and aesthetics in his lyrical poetry, whereas the ...

Evaluating the Fluid Loss and Carrying Capacity of Water‐Based Muds Treated With Wheat Husks and Periwinkle Shells

Journal of GeoEnergy, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
The formulation of drilling fluids with the desired characteristics required to achieve a successful drilling operation depends largely on the drilling additives. In this study, we investigated the potential of two agrowastes, wheat husks (WHs) and periwinkle shells (PSs) as additives in water‐based drilling fluids (WBFs).
