Mangrove expansion in a large river delta is dependent on foreshore geomorphology
Our findings provide guidance for large‐scale mangrove restoration, particularly in tropical river deltas, by identifying sites where (1) mangroves can potentially expand in the future, and (2) conditions are favourable for active mangrove seedling planting. The presence of a mudflat in front of existing mangroves is not sufficient.

ABSTRACT Anthropogenic nitrogen inputs are increasing globally, while the conditions under which ecosystems transition from nitrogen retention to nitrogen loss remain poorly constrained. Environmental proxies commonly used to infer nitrogen loss, including redox status, carbon availability, and microbial gene inventories, provide limited power to ...

Density estimates of two endangered rodent subspecies, endemic to Key Largo, Florida, USA. These findings illustrate the contrasting dynamics of two native species associated with the prevalence of invasive Burmese pythons and global change. The woodrats' decline emphasizes its potential risk of extinction as global change continues to impact island ...

Epigenetic Aging in Brain Tissue of the Self‐Fertilizing Vertebrate, Kryptolebias marmoratus
Using the self‐fertilizing vertebrate Kryptolebias marmoratus, we developed an epigenetic clock from brain tissue that predicts chronological age with high accuracy, demonstrating that DNA methylation changes consistently with age even in the near absence of genetic variation. The 40 age‐associated CpG sites identified map to genes with conserved roles

Hydrological seasonality shapes microbial biomass and diversity in an equatorial estuarine mangrove
Abstract Mangroves are pantropical marine forests rooted in soft sediments and subject to pronounced seasonal variability. However, the effects of these hydrological fluctuations on root‐associated prokaryotic communities remain poorly understood, particularly in underexplored regions like the Guianas.

Abstract Marine mammals can exhibit high plasticity in foraging strategies, but how such plasticity is driven by environmental conditions is poorly understood. The American manatee (Trichechus manatus), a large, endangered herbivore, inhabits marine, estuarine, and freshwater environments.

Morphological, Molecular, and Isotopic Approaches to Termite Ecology: A Mangrove Case Study
Termite communities in Caribbean mangroves, though species‐poor, sustain crucial decomposition and nutrient cycling. Their overlapping niches and stochastic assembly highlight termites' resilience and ecological importance in supporting the functioning of these challenging coastal ecosystems.
