Sponges survive and develop infaunal snapping shrimp communities when transplanted immediately after clonal propagation: implications for restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Sponges historically dominated the heterotrophic biomass of Florida Bay's hard‐bottom habitat, providing crucial ecosystem services including shelter for soniferous shrimp that contribute to the marine soundscape. The loss of the sponge communities has inspired restoration efforts using in‐water nurseries for vegetative ...

A comparative study of the impact of species composition on a freshwater phytoplankton community using two contrasting biotic indices

open access: yes, 2010
Biodiversity index based on species richness and evenness has been a frequently used measure to describe phytoplankton community composition and the impact of water pollution on biotic components, despite it could not reflect clearly the impact of a ...

Phytoplankton Community Composition Retrieval From Space

open access: yes
Phytoplankton community composition (PCCs) - also referred to as functional groups play a key role in ocean biogeochemical cycling, climate regulation, and marine ecosystem dynamics. Accurate quantification of these groups from satellite ocean color data remains challenging due to spectral similarities among phytoplank- ton types and the limitations of

Gaining ground: survival of native estuarine fauna exposed to recycled glass sand, a potential material for coastal restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
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.

Bio-optical investigation of phytoplankton production in the southern Benguela ecosystem

open access: yes, 2011
This study aims to evaluate various existing models for the estimation of PP in the southern Benguela ecosystem, and to investigate the photophysiological responses of phytoplankton to changes in environmental ...

Multitrophic responses to tidal marsh restoration: early effects of channel configuration on water quality, aquatic food web structure, and fish communities

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
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.

Temporal dynamics of summer phytoplankton communities and their response to environmental changes in the northern Yellow Sea (2011-2020)

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
Research on phytoplankton distribution and dynamics is crucial for understanding marine ecosystem functions and evaluating their status. The northern Yellow Sea (NYS), a marginal sea of the Pacific Ocean, has experienced significant anthropogenic impacts
