Coupled shear strain-damage state model for prediction of shear modulus of coral sand

Yantu gongcheng xuebao, 2019
Four series of cyclic triaxial tests with different loading forms are conducted on saturated coral sand from Nansha Islands. The relationships between shear modulus ratio G1st/G0 of the first loading cycle and shear strain amplitude under different ...

Antifouling capacity of substrate materials and their effects on settlement and post‐settlement survival of Acropora palmata and Orbicella faveolata

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction In coral reef restoration, sexual reproduction is a key methodology to enhance coral population recovery. However, post‐settlement survival remains a major bottleneck, as spat are particularly vulnerable to competition with fouling organisms.

Cenozoic tropical carbonate platforms in the Santos Basin, SE Brazilian Margin

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tropical carbonate platforms accompanied the latitudinal shifts of the tropical belt throughout the Cenozoic. Their flat‐topped geometries were influenced by a specific set of processes, including climate and sea‐level changes, carbonate facies, tectonics and continental runoff.

Impacts of Ocean Acidification on Reproduction and Early Life Development in Marine Teleost Fish—A Synthesis

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 5, Page 1176-1192, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Ocean acidification (OA) remains a major and underexplored threat to marine fishes, particularly regarding reproductive physiology and early life stages (ELS). Although research over the past 15 years has documented diverse OA effects, substantial knowledge gaps persist.

Commercially Exploited Seaweed Species in Africa: Occurrences, Chemical Composition, Current Value Chain and Opportunities for Value Addition

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 4, September 2026.
Commercially exploited seaweed species in Africa, their biochemical composition, current uses, and value chain are reviewed. Potential value‐addition of seaweed is suggested regionally in Africa amongst countries producing similar seaweed species. ABSTRACT Africa has a wide range of coastal environments that support a diverse array of seaweed species ...

The Effects of Late Pleistocene Sea‐Level Fluctuations and Sediment Transport Processes on the Sequestration of Fresh and Brackish Water in Continental Shelf Environments

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Offshore fresh groundwater (OFG) is regarded as a significant, albeit typically non‐renewable, unconventional water resource stored within continental shelves. Many models of offshore freshwater emplacement use present‐day stratigraphy while applying Pleistocene sea‐level fluctuations.

Corals and Reef‐Dwelling Fish Regulate Carbon Storage and Cycling Processes in Coral Reef Ecosystems

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 41, 22 July 2026.
Coral reefs are biodiversity hotspots, yet their role in carbon storage and cycling remains poorly understood. Using field surveys and modeling in the South China Sea, we reveal the overlooked potential of carbon storage in reef ecosystems and how reef fish, corals, and surface sediment jointly shape reef carbon reservoirs.

Influence of particle breakage on coefficient of earth pressure at rest for coral sand

Yantu gongcheng xuebao
o investigate the influence of particle breakage on the coefficient of earth pressure at rest (K0) of coral sand, this study employs coral sands from the South China Sea for saturated K0 consolidation tests under single-particle-size conditions.

Abundant interactions and feedbacks between aquatic deoxygenation and the other planetary boundaries suggest “unsafe” levels of oxygen loss with far‐reaching impacts

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Oxygen is critical for nearly all life on Earth, including aquatic species that breathe dissolved oxygen in both freshwater and marine systems. The rapid, global, and anthropogenic loss of dissolved oxygen known as “aquatic deoxygenation” threatens life in these environments, the human communities that depend on them, and Earth system ...

Numerical modeling and monitoring of the seismic response of coral reef island in Xisha Islands, South China Sea

Yantu gongcheng xuebao
The seismic response analysis of the coral islands in South China Sea is of practical significance for the seismic safety of the islands. A two-dimensional FEM model is established for a typical coral island in Xisha Islands considering the unsaturated ...
