Characterization of phytoplankton species in oyster habitats in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia
Phytoplankton is the base of marine food webs and all marine life depends on it for survival. This study identified phytoplankton species found in the water of the Bras d’Or Lake and in oyster gut contents using DNA sequencing and performed a fatty acid ...

Environmental variables and plankton communities in the pelagic of lakes: enclosure experiment and comparative lake survey [PDF]
Most primary production of lakes and oceans occurs in the well-mixed surface layer that is subject to strong seasonal and geographical variation. With increasing mixed surface layer depth average light supply and specific nutrient supply decrease and so ...

Abstract Objectives The aim of this research is to develop an understanding of the potential for using recycled glass sand as a resource for restoring Louisiana's coastline by testing the effects of exposure of native estuarine fauna to recycled glass sand and other sand treatments in a laboratory environment.

Abstract Introduction Tidal wetland restoration is critical for reversing habitat loss and enhancing resilience under sea‐level rise and climate variability. Dutch Slough in the San Francisco Estuary served as a living laboratory for adaptive management.

Abstract Introduction Endangered fish species, such as Delta smelt (Hypomesus transpacificus), in the San Francisco Estuary are threatened by a multitude of anthropogenic stressors. Tidal wetland restoration can partially mitigate these stressors by increasing food availability of aquatic invertebrate prey, but the efficacy of restoration remains ...

Abstract Introduction Novel ecosystems, where environmental conditions have been fundamentally altered from a historic norm, require nontraditional approaches to restoration. Suisun Marsh, located within California's San Francisco Estuary (SFE), is a novel, brackish water wetland complex, where managers have begun restoring tidal connectivity to ...

Physical constraints on phytoplankton in estuaries and shallow coastal waters
Highly dynamic aquatic systems have often been reported to support actively growing populations of phytoplankton. The partially-mixed, macrotidal, temperate estuary Southampton Water is no exception, with reports of frequent temporal patterns of spring ...

Abstract Introduction Over 44% of European lakes fail to meet ecological quality standards, prompting substantial investment in lake restoration to achieve good ecological status. Unfortunately, effects are often short‐lived due to persistent internal phosphorus (P) loading and strong cyprinid‐driven bottom‐up control, which limits water quality ...

ABSTRACT Although the global expansion of oxygen‐depleted marine environments during the Early Toarcian Jenkyns Event (or Toarcian Oceanic Anoxic Event) is primarily inferred from successions in the NW European epicontinental basins, the timing of the expansion of anoxia in Tethyan basins, where hydrography potentially played a minor role, is poorly ...

Omega‐3 LC‐PUFA lie at the intersection of aquaculture performance and human nutrition. Deployment of w3 LC‐PUFA rich microalgal oils derived from low trophic levels offers credible long‐term sustainable solutions, taking full account of the potential environmental footprints and benefits in terms of human nutrition and health.
