Heavy metal contamination and blue carbon sequestration in mangrove ecosystems of Puerto Rico

Journal of Environmental Quality, Volume 54, Issue 6, Page 2037-2047, November/December 2025.
Abstract Heavy metal contamination in coastal ecosystems can significantly impact biological activity, metal retranslocation, and biogeochemical cycling. This study assessed the concentrations of arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr), copper (Cu), nickel (Ni), lead (Pb), and zinc (Zn) in mangrove sediments and leaves of two ecosystems in Puerto ...

Genetic evidence for invasive rat‐caused vegetation damage has implications for endemic Caribbean mammal management

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 6, Issue 4, October–December 2025.
Conservation translocations of the Bahamian hutia, a threatened Caribbean rodent, have prompted concerns about vegetation damage. Extensive vegetation damage reported on John Higgs Cay (Turks and Caicos Islands), along with the presence of abundant large faecal pellets and local traditions of large‐bodied rodents called ‘hootees’, was suggestive of ...

Mangrove Pollinator Functional Diversity Decreases With Patch Size and Landscape Anthropization

Biotropica, Volume 57, Issue 5, September 2025.
This study explores how land use changes impact pollinator diversity in mangrove ecosystems, focusing on the effects of patch size and landscape anthropization on pollinators with different functional traits. Results show that smaller mangrove patches can support higher pollinator abundance, richness, and diversity; however, overall pollinator metrics ...

Quantifying tradeoffs in accuracy and monitoring effort to support management decisions for low‐density shorebird populations

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 7, Issue 9, September 2025.
We examined how survey frequency affects data uncertainty in monitoring migratory shorebirds at the Heʻeia National Estuarine Research Reserve, where managers are interested in how restoration actions impact three species with varying habitat use trends.

Hydrological repair and invasive grass removal restore Rhizophora racemosa mangrove communities in West Africa

Restoration Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 7, September 2025.
Mangrove ecosystems face significant threats from climate change and human activities. In West Benin, the invasive grass Paspalum vaginatum disrupts sedimentation and hydrology, creating anoxic conditions and nutrient imbalances. To address this, we implemented a cost‐effective restoration strategy focused on hydrological repair, engaging local ...

Morphodynamic adaptation timescales of the Guyana mangrove‐mudflat system: Are coastlines shaped by migrating mudbanks more resilient against sea level rise?

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 50, Issue 10, August 2025.
A coastline in motion—mudbanks migrating, intertidal mudflats and mangroves adapting, waves and tides shaping the landscape. This study uncovers equilibrium timescales, cyclic forces and sea level rise impacts, revealing nature's resilience until thresholds are exceeded.
