Unveiling coralline diversity of mesophotic rhodoliths in subtropical Japan, including new species of Sporolithon, emended genera Orientalilithon and Roseolithon (Corallinophycidae, Rhodophyta)

Journal of Phycology, Volume 62, Issue 3, Page 1044-1070, June 2026.
Abstract The mesophotic zone off Tanegashima Island (approximately 30–40 m deep) is a marine macroalgal hotspot in subtropical Japan; however, the taxonomic diversity of calcifying red algal community remains poorly understood. Our phylogenetic analyses based on psbA, rbcL, and COI‐5P gene markers disclosed the presence of at least 12 rhodolith‐forming

Organelle genome evolution in the early‐diverging brown algal lineage, Ishigeales

Journal of Phycology, Volume 62, Issue 3, Page 1090-1107, June 2026.
Abstract The order Ishigeales is an early‐diverging lineage of brown algae that exhibits remarkable morphological diversity ranging from simple filamentous forms to robust terete and foliose thalli, which may reflect complex evolutionary histories in their organelle genomes.

Tissue‐Specific Plasticity of DNA Methylation Across Intertidal Microhabitats in Juvenile Mussels (Mytilus californianus)

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 11, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Epigenetic modifications to DNA are proposed to underpin plastic responses to environmental change, and the manner in which DNA methylation contributes to plasticity likely differs among tissues. However, few studies have investigated tissue‐specific DNA methylation responses to ecologically relevant environmental stressors in natural settings.

Into the Wild: Farm‐Derived Energy and Nutrients Enter Marine Food Webs With Carrying Capacity Implications for Aquaculture Management

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Marine aquaculture is expanding globally, yet its interactions with surrounding ecosystems remain complex and insufficiently understood. This study reviews the fluxes of energy and nutrients from three major aquaculture systems: finfish cages, suspended bivalves, and seaweed farms and considers their implications for ecosystem functioning and ...

Life Cycle Assessments of Bivalve Aquaculture: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
Life cycle assessment (LCA) of bivalve aquaculture systems indicates generally low environmental impacts across mussel, oyster, and clam production. For a functional unit of 1 t live weight bivalves at farm gate, median impacts were 385 kg CO2‐eq for climate change, 0.25 kg PO43−‐eq for eutrophication, 0.014 kg N‐eq for marine eutrophication, 1.86 kg ...

Bio‐mediated cementation of supratidal beach sediments associated with groundwater springs

Sedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 4, Page 1271-1285, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The formation of beachrock, sensu stricto, via carbonate precipitation in the intertidal zone is widespread throughout the tropics and subtropics. While cementation of supratidal beach sediments has also been noted in several locations, it has received much less attention.

Microbial influence on the formation and subsequent changes of vertebrate tracks: field experiments on present‐day coastal sediments

Sedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 4, Page 1121-1147, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The presence of microbial mats is often invoked to explain the good preservation of vertebrate tracks, because they can cover and biostabilize such structures. However, microbial influence on the sediment properties when the track is made and on the track characteristics has not been so thoroughly analysed.

Microbial mats in dinosaur ichnocoenoses

Sedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 4, Page 1099-1120, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Until now, the significance of microbial mats in preservation of dinosaur tracks and in reconstructing the palaeoenvironment in which dinosaurs roamed was rarely studied. Dinosaur tracks are commonly found close to ancient aquatic bodies where moist sediment had once allowed footstep registration.
