Long-term changes in the structure of a polychaete community on artificial habitats [PDF]
A mediterranean polychaete community was studied for 10 years since the first settlement to examine community dynamics and to compare it with the model proposed by Hughes (1984) for benthic invertebrates.

Progress and Challenges in Phylogenomics and Genomics of Lophotrochozoa/Spiralia
ABSTRACT Lophotrochozoa is one of the three major bilaterian groups comprising more than half of the bilaterian phyla. Lophotrochozoa includes among others Mollusca, Annelida, Platyhelminthes and Rotifera. Despite representing such a large proportion of animal diversity, they are historically understudied and genomic resources have been scarce. However,

ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

Hydrocarbon influence on denitrification in bioturbated Mediterranean coastal sediments [PDF]
An in situ experiment has been carried out inbioturbated Mediterranean coastal marine sediments (Gulfof Fos) in order to study the influence of hydrocarbons ondenitrification after 1, 4 and 6 months. In theabsence of hydrocarbons in the control sediments,

The impacts of biological invasions
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

The establishment of non-indigenous species is one of the major threats to Mediterranean biodiversity. The tropical red macroalga Asparagopsis taxiformis is widely distributed in the Mediterranean Sea and appears invasive along the shallow rocky areas ...

Polychaete Assisted Sand Filter In Treating Synthetic Wastewater [PDF]
This study is about polychaete assisted sand filter in treating synthetic wastewater. To test the application of this concept, polychaete assisted sand filters were experimentally tested for their ability to treat synthetic wastewater.
