Mesophotic animal forests of the Aegean Sea support fish diversity hotspots under high fishing pressure

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Marine animal forests (MAFs) are dense aggregations of habitat‐forming species that constitute essential habitats for diverse taxa including fish. However, the study of MAFs and their associated fauna remains largely skewed to their shallowest occurrence, above 30 m depth.

Recent Changes and Variability of Suspended Particulate Matter in European and Mediterranean Coastal Waters Inferred From OLCI Data

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Suspended Particulate Matter (SPM) plays a central role in coastal marine ecosystems, influencing light availability, primary production, and transport of sediments, nutrients, and pollutants. Monitoring its variability is essential for understanding the impacts of both natural and anthropogenic pressures on coastal regions.

BIOCHEMICAL AND MOLECULAR TOOLS TO MONITOR Posidonia oceanica (L.) Delile MEADOWS

open access: yes, 2010
Posidonia oceanica (L.) Delile is the dominant endemic seagrass in the Mediterranean Sea, where it forms highly productive meadows. Worldwide seagrass monitoring is an issue of increasing interest in research, management and policies, due to the ...

Decapods abundance, habitat, landscape, and geographical attributes in the NW Mediterranean Posidonia oceanica seagrass meadows [Dataset]

open access: yes, 2014
This dataset presents the decapod species and abundance, along with the habitat (detached seagrass leaves, fine fraction of detritus, detrital macroalgae, organic matter in sediments, seagrass shoot density and height of unburried rhizomes), landscape ...

Soil Carbon Stocks in Fijian Seagrass: Environmental Drivers, National Inventories, and Implications for Blue Carbon Accounting in Small Island Settings

open access: yesGlobal Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 40, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Pacific island seagrass systems remain critically underrepresented in global blue carbon assessments despite their potential significance for climate mitigation. We present the first national‐scale assessment of seagrass soil carbon stocks for a Pacific island nation based on 135 sediment cores from 47 sites across Fiji.

Human impacts on Posidonia oceanica, a key species in the Mediterranean Sea: Bringing together ecological law and green criminology

open access: yes
Posidonia oceanica is one of the most ecologically important plant species in the Mediterranean Sea, as it is a natural carbon sink and also provides a habitat for a variety of animal species.

Inter-annual variation of shoot density and biomass, nitrogen and phosphorus content of the leaves, and epiphyte load of the seagrass Posidonia oceanica (L.) Delile off Mallorca, western Mediterranean

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2011
The epiphyte load, the ash content of the epiphytes, the leaf biomass, the nitrogen and phosphorus content of the leaves, and the density of shoots of the Mediterranean seagrass Posidonia oceanica (L.) Delile were monitored yearly from 2003 to 2008 in ...

Modelling Palaeodistributions in Marine Environments: A Review

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim This scoping review (ScR) synthesises the current literature on the application of Species Distribution Models (SDM) to past marine environments. We assess how these models have been used to reconstruct past environmental suitability, track biogeographical shifts and investigate long‐term ecological dynamics, while identifying key ...

Recovery of donor meadows of posidonia sinuosa and posidonia australis contributes to sustainable seagrass transplantation

open access: yes, 2012
Donor meadow recovery is important in deciding whether removal of material from natural seagrass meadows is a sustainable activity. Thus an investigation into meadow regrowth was undertaken as part of a large-scale seagrass rehabilitation effort in ...
