Multi‐Scale Habitat Selection of Greater Caribbean Manatees in Sian Ka'an Biosphere Reserve, Mexico

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Habitat selection describes population distribution as a function of environmental features. It is a fundamental process with primordial ecological and evolutionary implications. To accurately describe habitat selection, it is important to identify temporal and spatial scales perceived by the population and use these scales when modeling ...

The effects of desiccation and salinity gradients in the photochemical efficiency of a mesophotic green alga, Ryuguphycus kuaweuweu (Ulvaceae) from Kagoshima, Japan

open access: yesPhycological Research, EarlyView.
SUMMARY In mesophotic coral ecosystems (MCEs) at depths of 30–40 m, the light environment is characterized by low intensity and limited spectral quality. However, due to minimal freshwater input, salinity remains relatively stable, and there are no tidal aerial exposures.

Assessing the ecological and aesthetic effectiveness of restoration interventions on coralligenous reefs

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Although tools for actively restoring marine habitats have advanced considerably, the capacity and timeframes for ecosystem recovery remain uncertain. Time and funding constraints, and lacking metrics to quantify the recovery process, represent the primary obstacles to evaluating restoration success.

Opportunities for targeted, small‐scale law reform in marine and coastal restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Across the globe, law reform is being considered as a mechanism to support, guide, and encourage the upscaling of ecological restoration. While high‐profile examples like the European Nature Restoration Law show the value of large‐scale law reform, this scale of law reform will not be feasible or politically tractable everywhere.

Intertidal oyster reef elevation restoration: using a durable substrate on Lone Cabbage Reef, Florida, United States

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Oyster reef restoration has expanded in the Gulf of Mexico, yet many large‐scale projects fail to sustain ecological or physical outcomes. A key challenge is maintaining vertical relief in dynamic estuarine settings, where low elevation and cultch degradation limit recruitment and reef persistence.

Comparison of the spatial location of deep-sea polymetallic sulphide ore objects and deep mantle structure based on geophysical fields in the northern near-equatorial segment of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge

open access: yesВестник Камчатской региональной ассоциации "Учебно-научный центр". Серия: Науки о Земле
A comparison of geophysical data along the segment of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge (MAR) between 10° N and 25° N and seafloor massive sulfides (SMS) ore objects revealed a number of regularities and relationships in their spatial distribution.
