Abstract Sediment loading from land and turbidity in coastal waters has increased because of human activities in coastal catchments and through climate‐related increases in storm intensity and frequency. Here, we investigated changes in coastal seafloor biodiversity and ecosystem function across a suspended sediment concentration gradient in a New ...

Growth differentiation among farmed sea urchins (Strongylocentrotus intermedius) poses a significant challenge to aquaculture, with there being a limited understanding of the underlying molecular mechanisms. In this study, sea urchins with varying growth

Intensity of herbivory on kelp by fish and sea urchins differs between inshore and offshore reefs
Interactions between water motion, primary productivity, and herbivory are complex. Rates of grazing by fish on tropical coral reefs and by sea urchins on temperate rocky reefs are usually high, but can be low in areas of extreme water motion.

Abstract Nitrous oxide (N2O) is an ozone‐depleting greenhouse gas that has a global warming potential nearly 300 times greater than carbon dioxide. Although the oceans contribute about 21% of atmospheric global N2O emissions, we know relatively little about N2O dynamics in nearshore systems. Here, we document the fourfold increase in the abundance of a

The formation of small-scale barrens of sea urchins on the east coast of Tasmania allows for direct comparison of the growth rates and age structures of sea urchin populations in barrens and habitats dominated by native macroalgae.

Refuge trifecta: intertidal gastropods use pits to escape heat, wave action and predation
Refuges play a critical role in ecology and evolution. In hard intertidal shores, small pits attract benthic invertebrates such as gastropods, however, there exists little mechanistic understanding of the processes driving the active usage of these microhabitat features. We conducted a series of laboratory experiments to assess whether the marine snail

Interactions of rare earth elements with living organisms and emerging biotechnical applications
Rare earth elements (REEs) are critical resources required to achieve net‐zero carbon emission targets and energy security. However, rising demand for REEs coupled with significant extraction and processing challenges and geopolitical risks restricts access to REE resources.
