The usability of eDNA to identify and quantify zooplankton communities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Havet vårt står midt i en trippel planetarisk krise. Klimaendringer, forurensning og tap av biologisk mangfold påvirker både habitater og de som bor der.

Characterization of Intertidal Macrofaunal Communities of Two Sandy Beaches under Different Anthropogenic Pressures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
The macrofauna in the intertidal zone of sandy beaches provides the trophic connectivity between land and sea, by linking microbiome, meiofauna, and megafauna, representing a food source for several terrestrial animals, including shorebirds and mammals ...

Modelling spatial distributions of biogenic habitat‐forming taxa to inform marine spatial planning

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 34, Issue 3, March 2024.
Abstract Biogenic habitats are foundational habitats for species assemblages and drive a range of ecosystem functions. The Hauraki Gulf/Tiikapa Moana is the most intensively used coastal area in Aotearoa/New Zealand, and decades of commercial fishing, sedimentation and industrialization have degraded biogenic habitats in the Gulf.

Scolelepis (Polychaeta: Spionidae) from the Brazilian coast with a diagnosis of the genus [PDF]

open access: yesZoologia (Curitiba), 2012
Five species of Scolelepis have been reported for the Brazilian coast. This study raises this number, with two new records: S. acuta Treadwell, 1914, originally from Eastern Pacific, and Scolelepis andradei Delgado-Blas, Díaz & Liñero-Arana, 2009, from the Caribbean Sea. Furthermore, two species were found to have an expanded geographic range along the

An updated checklist of polychaetes (Animalia, Annelida, Polychaeta) from Odisha and West Bengal coasts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The present checklist of polychaetes from the Odisha and West Bengal coasts was reviewed based on the recent surveys and published literature. Total 179 species belonging to 119 genera were found to be mixed with valid names and hence a revised checklist

Metabarcoding approach for nonindigenous species surveillance in marine coastal waters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Highlights: • Metabarcoding was applied for the surveillance of plankton communities and NIS detection. • The results were compared to those from the conventional monitoring. • Four of five detected NIS were identified exclusively by metabarcoding. •

On the presence of Prionospio pulchra (Polychaeta: Spionidae) in the Atlantic Ocean

open access: yes, 2000
The presence of the Japanese spionid polychaete Prionospio pulchra in the Atlantic Ocean is confirmed by specimens found in the north-west coast of Spain (Iberian Peninsula). This species is characterized by its eight to ten pairs of long and apinnate branchiae, the longest extending over six to eight segments, and by the presence of five prostomial

Evaluating Macrobenthic Indicators of Organic Enrichment and Hypoxia Within the Coastal Mississippi Hypoxic Zone [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Macrobenthic communities offer effective indicators of biotic integrity, but their use for distinguishing anthropogenic from natural stress is tricky because coastal taxa are eurytolerant.

Diversity and drivers of coral reef cryptofauna communities [PDF]

open access: yes
Tropical coral reefs are exceptionally biodiverse ecosystems, and many species within reefs remain undiscovered, undescribed or under-studied. This is especially true of organisms living hidden within the cavities and crevices of the reef matrix, the ...
