Mesophotic octocoral larval settlement preferences and behaviors
Abstract Introduction Lab‐based coral reproduction is advancing restoration efforts to support coral populations injured by the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill. Objectives This study aimed to answer foundational questions concerning coral spawning and larval settlement that need to be resolved for these mesophotic and deep‐sea coral species before ...

Rotifers as models for the biology of aging [PDF]
It has been two decades since 1993 when research on the biology of rotifer aging was last reviewed by Enesco. Much has transpired during this time as rotifer biologists have adapted to the “omics” revolution and incorporated these techniques into the experimental analysis of rotifers.

Freshwater Biodiversity Research in Brazil: Trends from a Systematic Review and Topic Modeling
ABSTRACT Brazil is a megadiverse country that hosts six major biomes and a vast freshwater network. Despite this richness, research on freshwater biodiversity has been heterogeneous across regions, communities, and time, leaving significant knowledge gaps.

Permafrost thaw lakes and ponds as habitats for abundant rotifer populations
Thermokarst lakes and ponds were sampled across a range of permafrost landscapes in subarctic Québec (Nunavik, Canada) to compare their rotifer and other zooplankton characteristics with a set of rock-basin lakes and ponds in the region.

Abstract Zooplankton transfer substantial energy in aquatic food webs and are used as indicators of environmental change. Syntheses of zooplankton community dynamics globally require datasets that span a wide range of environmental gradients; however, these datasets are limited due to methodological differences across programs, taxonomic ...

Scavenging Attraction of a Cyclopoid Copepod to Zooplankton Carcasses
We experimentally demonstrated that a cyclopoid copepod, Thermocyclops taihokuensis, can function as a planktonic scavenger in freshwater ecosystems. T. taihokuensis actively approached and attacked cladoceran carcasses and was attracted to carcass‐derived chemical cues, indicating that chemical cues are key for detecting carcasses.

Riding the Storm: Microeukaryote Community Responses to Hurricane Disturbance
ABSTRACT Sandy beaches are dynamic ecosystems where terrestrial and marine organisms coexist, resulting in diverse communities where microeukaryotes (protists, microalgae, and meiofauna) are key drivers. Understanding their diversity patterns and responses to stressors is essential for elucidating ecological processes, yet information on this subject ...
