Pelagic sea cucumbers in the Galapagos: Midwater grazers that short‐circuit deep‐sea carbon flux

open access: yesEcology, Volume 107, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Direct observations from submersible dives off the Galapagos Islands have revealed that Pelagothuria natatrix, the only known holopelagic echinoderm, actively intercepts settling particles well before they can reach the deep seafloor, thereby short‐circuiting the typical downward flux of organic carbon generated in the photic zone.

Patchy Distribution Patterns of Harmful Algal Bloom Species Along Shandong Coast Uncovered via Metabarcoding Analysis of High‐Density Samples

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 5, September‐October 2026.
Using high‐density sampling along the Shandong coast region (SCR) and 18S ribosomal DNA V4‐based metabarcoding technology, combined with morphological verification, the diversity, relative abundance, and geographic distribution of HAB species in the SCR were ascertained.

Uneven Impacts of Seawall Heightening on Tsunami Risk Reduction under Rising Sea Levels: Probabilistic Scenarios from the Japan Trench

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2948-2965, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Disasters exacerbated by climate change have prompted adaptation measures, including seawall heightening, which is an effective approach to protecting coastal areas. However, the combined effect of rising sea levels and tsunamis can create a compound coastal hazard, in which long‐term sea level rise amplifies the impact of tsunamis.

Thermal Stress Is Associated With Fragmentation of Mediterranean Posidonia oceanica Meadows

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 3, September 2026.
By combining a physiological model of cumulative thermal stress with AI‐based seagrass mapping, we show that chronic sublethal warming is associated with fragmentation of Mediterranean Posidonia oceanica meadows and increased regression risk by 2100. ABSTRACT Posidonia oceanica meadows, which underpin Mediterranean coastal ecosystems, are undergoing ...

Spatial and temporal patterns of bottom water euxinia in shallow areas of the southwestern Baltic Sea

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Sediments in productive coastal regions are hotspots of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) production through microbial sulfate reduction. Under anoxic seafloor conditions, H2S can escape the sediment and accumulate in bottom waters, where elevated concentrations render the benthic environment toxic, posing ecological and economic risks.
