Lobster movements in response to a hurricane [PDF]

, 1990
There are several anecdotal reports of the American lobster Homarus americanus moving to deeper water, or suffering increased mortality, in response to storm events.

Locating Little Larvae: Environmental DNA Methods Can Detect a Rare Fish Species Under Field Estuarine Conditions

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
We measured a positive linear relationship between eDNA concentration and abundance for larval Delta Smelt (Hypomesus transpacificus) with N = 1 larva exceeding the limit of detection for the novel qPCR assay. Field experiments quantified the probability of detection for eDNA sampling methods at known abundances and distances from source. ABSTRACT Rare

Elusive and vulnerable: evaluating spatial and temporal variation in the distribution of manta rays around O’ahu using environmental DNA

Frontiers in Marine Science
Reef mantas (Mobula alfredi) around the Hawaiian Islands are vulnerable to extinction due to the low genetic diversity and resident populations that exhibit limited migration between islands.

Morphological instability in restored intertidal flats: How anthropogenic structures drive early‐stage evolution

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 3, March 2026.
The study focusses on the morphological evolution of worldwide restored intertidal flats. These intertidal flats initially experience high sedimentation rates after the opening of the connection with open waters. The anthropogenic structures cause high morphological instability and are eroded, leading to a self‐cannibalisation of the system.

Ocean alkalinity enhancement in an estuary

Frontiers in Climate
A high-resolution numerical ocean model is used to assess ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE) in the San Francisco Bay (SFB) estuary. A novel tracer-based approach is introduced to simulate alkalinity release and the subsequent CO2 ingassing. The model is

Climate and Land-Use Controls on Surface Water Diversions in the Central Valley, California [PDF]

, 2020
California’s Central Valley (CV) is one of the most productive agricultural regions in the world, enabled by the conjunctive use of surface water and groundwater. We investigated variations in the CV’s managed surface water diversions relative to climate

Transgressivity in Key Functional Traits Rather Than Phenotypic Plasticity Promotes Stress Tolerance in A Hybrid Cordgrass [PDF]

, 2019
Hybridization might promote offspring fitness via a greater tolerance to environmental stressors due to heterosis and higher levels of phenotypic plasticity.
