Optimizing Total Suspended Solids Mitigation in a Data‐Limited Watershed: A Network‐Based Advection–Reaction Model Applied to the Canal del Dique, Colombia

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Total Suspended Solids (TSS) significantly degrade water quality by reducing light penetration and oxygen availability, while facilitating the transport of toxic contaminants. Managing TSS in watersheds requires an understanding of both hydrological connectivity and pollutant dynamics; however, these efforts are significantly constrained by ...

Wayward youth: how maturity, reproduction and seaweed drive snapper (Lutjanus spp.) habitat shifts

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, Volume 107, Issue 6, Page 2106-2124, December 2025.
Abstract Despite snappers' (family Lutjanidae) commercial and ecological significance, knowledge gaps remain regarding life history, ontogeny and ecology across their range in the Caribbean and south Atlantic. There is also a need to explore the efficacy of marine protected areas (MPAs) as a tool for enhancing nursery and spawning habitat conservation ...

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

open access: yesJournal 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

open access: yesEcological 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 ...
