Effects of low seawater pH on the marine polychaete Platynereis dumerilii [PDF]
, 2015 An important priority for any organism is to maintain internal cellular homeostasis including acidbase balance. Yet, the molecular level impacts of changing environmental conditions, such as low pH, remain uncharacterised.

The impacts of biological invasions
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.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

Use of isotope dilution method to predict bioavailability of organic pollutants in historically contaminated sediments. [PDF]
, 2014 Many cases of severe environmental contamination arise from historical episodes, where recalcitrant contaminants have resided in the environment for a prolonged time, leading to potentially decreased bioavailability.

Consumer diversity drives stronger predation in tropical marine communities
Ecography, EarlyView.Biotic interactions are predicted to be stronger in the tropics compared to higher latitudes, contributing to observed patterns of global biodiversity. While increased consumer diversity and more complex food webs are expected in tropical communities, the trophic dynamics underlying strong regional effects of predation are not well understood.

Scientia Marina, 2006 Long-term monitoring (1990 to 2004) at four stations (50 to 60 m depth) off Punta Coloso, Antofagasta, northern Chile, has allowed us to study temporal changes in the sublittoral macrobenthic polychaete infauna composition and abundance.

Multiple Trophic Levels in Soft-Bottom Communities
, 1985 In order to assess the general applicability of recent field experiments with predatory infauna, we searched the literature and found 48 well-documented cases of infaunal consumption by such predators.

Final report : benthic samples taken from the Padre Island National Seashore [PDF]
, 1992 From March 1989 through January 1992 sediment samples were taken from subtidal areas within the boundary of the Padre Island National Seashore. These samples were taken as part of a large multidisciplinary study to determine how a hot, hypersaline ...

Biogeography of intertidal invertebrates is influenced by latitude along the west coast of Australia
Ecography, EarlyView.Along the west coast of Australia, intertidal rock platforms support high invertebrate diversities that provide vital ecosystem services, yet patterns in diversity are not well understood. Here, we document and examine the invertebrate assemblages on intertidal rock platforms in Western Australia and delineate ecoregions according to assemblage ...
