Fish Community Composition Revealed by eDNA Metabarcoding in Mangrove‐Associated Lagoons of Negombo and Puttalam, Sri Lanka

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 5, September‐October 2026.
eDNA metabarcoding revealed distinct fish community composition between Negombo and Puttalam lagoons, with richness broadly comparable to conventional surveys. The approach detected diverse taxa, including cryptic taxa, demonstrating its value as a complementary tool for biodiversity monitoring in Sri Lanka's mangrove‐associated lagoons.

Spatial and Temporal Variation in the Acoustic Habitat of Bottlenose Dolphins (Tursiops aduncus) within a Highly Urbanized Estuary

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2017
There is growing awareness of underwater noise in a variety of marine habitats, and how such noise may adversely affect marine species. This is of particular concern for acoustically-specialized species, such as dolphins.

Temperature, but not acidification, influences the growth and lipid profile of juvenile sand whiting, Sillago ciliata (Cuvier 1829)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, Volume 109, Issue 3, Page 1507-1516, September 2026.
Abstract Seafood provides an essential source of macro‐ and micronutrients for coastal communities worldwide. Climate change is a key threat to seafood security, altering the sizes, abundances, distributions, physiology and ecological interactions of fisheries species, and increasingly, there is evidence of impacts to seafood nutritional quality.

MONITORING OF SEA ENVIRONMENT BY USING SNAPPING SHRIMP

open access: yesDoboku Gakkai Ronbunshu, 2000
本論文では, 海中発音生物として知られるテッポウエビの発音数観測による浅海域底層環境モニタリングの可能性を, 環境汚濁として貧酸素水塊を取り上げ検討した. 発音数の測定は基本的にはハイドロフォンで水中音響を録音するだけであり, 生物の専門知識も必要なく1~2分で終了する. 2年間の現地調査, 室内実験の結果, 遊泳能力を持たないテッポウエビにとって貧酸素水塊発生は危機的な状態であり, パルス数が激減すること, 環境汚濁の無い状態では水温が発音数の支配要因となることを見出した. また, 環境汚濁や急激な水温変化がなければ短期間内でのパルス数の変動はほとんどないことから, 定点モニタリングでは十分にテッポウエビのパルス数観測が環境汚染の生物影響の直接的な測定方法となることを示すことができた.
