Marine Functional Connectivity Contributes to Ecosystem Functioning Across Multiple Scales
ABSTRACT The passive transport and active movements of marine organisms between habitats and ecosystems, known as marine functional connectivity, play a critical role in the functioning of marine ecosystems. However, marine functional connectivity, particularly at large spatial scales, is often understudied, and consequently tends to be overlooked in ...

Mesozooplankton assemblages differed significantly both between and within Baltic Sea bays, driven mainly by local salinity and temperature gradients. Distinct communities occurred over distances of less than 1 km, demonstrating strong fine‐scale spatial variability.

Abstract Emerging global change imposes challenges for marine ecosystems placing them at the verge of collapse. The identification of early signs of ecosystem collapse is crucial to assist adaptive management. Shifts in the ecosystems are preceded by rewiring of ecological networks.

This study presents BioOverlap, a global database quantifying macroclimatic niche properties, niche overlap, and geographic range overlap for ~16,000 species. Analyses reveal that niche originality consistently reflects ecological factors such as niche breadth, productivity, and climatic heterogeneity, whereas pairwise niche–range relationships are ...

Seagrass bed has an important role for biota in waters. The existence of fish in seagrass is influenced by other ecosystems close to seagrass, such as mangroves and coral reefs. This study focuses on fish associated with seagrass in Bama Beach.

Relationship between Fragum unedo shell height (mm) and tissue δ13C. Points are color coded by shell size categories (small, medium, big) with symbol shapes representing the types of tissues (foot, mantle, or gill). ABSTRACT Photosymbiotic marine invertebrates derive carbon from both symbiont photosynthesis and heterotrophic feeding, yet the relative ...

Megaherbivory is a major force driving seagrass structure on the Great Barrier Reef [PDF]
Herbivory is a key mechanism controlling seagrass ecosystem stability, function and diversity globally. Tropical seagrass ecosystems are susceptible to large scale grazing from megaherbivores (turtles and dugongs), but research on the impact of grazing ...

Seagrass transplantation in a high energy environment [PDF]
This paper will briefly review some of the seagrass transplantation studies conducted by the Marine and Freshwater Research Laboratory at Murdoch University in the Success Bank region off the Perth metropolitan coast over the past eight years.

Experimentally derived critical thermal maxima (CTmax) are widely used to estimate species' thermal tolerance and increasingly to predict vulnerability to chronic warming. However, evidence shows how CTmax is dynamic and can be strongly influenced by multiple environmental and methodological factors, potentially limiting its application as a fixed ...
