Biotropika: Journal of Tropical Biology, 2023 Marine plastic debris will move with the flow of water and float and then be fragmented into smaller particles, namely microplastics, sink, and settle on the substrate. Sea urchins, as deposit feeders, can potentially ingest microplastic particles, which

How to generate pentagonal symmetry using Turing systems [PDF]
, 2002 We explore numerically the formation of Turing patterns in a confined circular domain with small aspect ratio. Our results show that stable fivefold patterns are formed over a well defined range of disk sizes, offering a possible mechanism for inducing ...

The challenge of managing the commercial harvesting of the sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus: advanced approaches are required [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 Sea urchins act as a keystone herbivore in marine coastal ecosystems, regulating macrophyte density, which offers refuge for multiple species. In the Mediterranean Sea, both the sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus and fish preying on it are highly valuable ...
