Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.Abstract The 2014 discovery of living deep‐sea coral reefs along the Northwest Hawaiian Islands (NWHI) and lower Emperor Seamount Chain (ESC), despite the North Pacific's shallow aragonite saturation horizon (ASH) and high CaCO3 dissolution rates, underscores the need to understand the local seawater chemistry where these reefs persist. We investigated

Lichen bleaching as a response to long‐term experimental warming in the High Arctic
Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 7, Page 2318-2331, July 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Lichens are an important component of Arctic ecosystems. Studies have indicated a decline in the abundance of Arctic lichens during recent decades, which is often attributed to competitive pressure from vascular plants.

Linking seaweed farming with coral restoration: Bioremediation boosts early coral survivorship
Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 7, July 2026.These findings improve our understanding of seaweed cultivation on coral reefs, highlighting the ways in which farmed seaweed can improve water quality and enhance early coral survival. Linking coral restoration with a commercially viable seaweed industry creates a scalable, market‐driven mechanism to overcome costly post‐settlement survival ...

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1091-1119, June 2026.ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

Sedimentation‐driven environmental filtering shapes community assembly of cryptic coralline algae
Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 6, June 2026.Abstract Community assembly of cryptic crustose coralline algae (CCA) underlies the formation of algal reefs across the global ocean, yet the ecological mechanisms shaping these communities remain poorly understood. Sedimentation has been linked to variation in CCA community structure across the Taoyuan Algal Reef (TAR), the world's largest subtropical

Research on Engineering Structures and MaterialsCoral sand is one of the typical subsoils for construction projects on coastal and island regions in Southeast Asia, including Vietnam’s islands. In these regions, many structures are made from stainless steel to withstand the marine environment. Due to the load characteristics, these structures often face stability challenges, such as excessive ...

Abstract Under seismic loading, saturated coral sand is prone to liquefaction, leading to damage of structures on coral reefs. Due to hydraulic sorting, coral sand in different sites often has varying particle gradations. This study reinterprets liquefiable coral sand as a non-Newtonian fluid and systematically investigates the rheological ...
