Establishing microbial baselines to identify indicators of coral reef health [PDF]
Microorganisms make a significant contribution to reef ecosystem health and resilience via their critical role in mediating nutrient transformations, their interactions with macro-organisms and their provision of chemical cues that underpin the ...

This review explores invertebrate biohybrid robots that integrate living organisms—such as insects, jellyfish, spiders, and sea slugs—into robotic systems for locomotion, sensing, and actuation. The advantages in efficiency and cost, discuss control, and power challenges are highlighted, and future considerations to guide the development of sustainable,

The Carboniferous reefs in China
The Carboniferous period was a unique period for reef developments during the Late Paleozoic; however, in past years, studies dealing with the Carboniferous reefs in China were very rare.

BOOK REVIEW | The Biology of Reefs and Reef Organisms [PDF]
Walter Goldberg dedicates his new reference book, The Biology of Reefs and Reef Organisms, to "the condition of the reefs the way I remember them, with the hope that they might be that way again someday." He follows this simple, emotional, dedicatory plea with thorough descriptions of reef formation and colorful reef inhabitants, and ends with a note ...

Coral reefs in the Anthropocene [PDF]
Coral reefs support immense biodiversity and provide important ecosystem services to many millions of people. Yet reefs are degrading rapidly in response to numerous anthropogenic drivers. In the coming centuries, reefs will run the gauntlet of climate change, and rising temperatures will transform them into new configurations, unlike anything observed

Selectivity in Lithium extraction from major ions in seawater. ABSTRACT Recovery of lithium from seawater remains a problem because of its low concentration. In this study, the extraction of lithium and other metals was carried out in both spiked and real seawater samples. Polymer inclusion membrane (PIM) was synthesized using cellulose triacetate as a

Influence of abiotic factors on phytoplankton diversity and distribution in an atoll environment
Taxonomic investigations of phytoplankton community structure are very important for understanding the dynamics of these organisms in places like reefs, which present broad hydro-biological variation.
