Polygonal tepee structures of Arabia

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2026.
Tepee structures on Sheybarah Island form polygonal microbial cemented crusts in the intertidal. Radiocarbon dating suggests they formed in the Holocene and reflect minor sea‐level changes, highlighting their value as palaeoenvironmental indicators. Satellite surveys identified 126 polygonal features, including coral reefs that may have developed on ...

Response of Early Life‐Stages of Forest‐Forming Seaweeds From Warm‐Edge and Central Populations to Marine Heatwaves

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Marine heatwaves (MHWs) pose a threat to global marine forests, with the effects of warming potentially being even greater on early life stages, which are often understudied. We evaluated the responses of Phyllospora comosa—one of the most crucial forest‐forming seaweeds in South‐eastern Australia—early life stages from warm‐edge and central ...

Population Structure and Genetic Diversity Analyses Reveal Isolation That May Imperil the Northernmost Colony of the Endangered Australian Sea Lion

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Rapid warming of marine environments is threatening ecosystems, especially species at the edge of their range. This study analysed the genetic structure and diversity of Australian sea lion populations and found the northernmost population to be highly isolated with extremely low genetic variation.

Range‐extending fish become competitive dominants under ocean warming but not heatwaves or acidification

open access: yesEcology, Volume 107, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Ocean warming is driving species range extensions into cooler regions. The direct physiological influence of warming on species performance can accelerate such extensions into novel ecosystems; however, indirect effects of invader–resident interactions in cooler regions may counter these positive effects.

Composite Superhydrophobic Surfaces with Optical/Electrical Properties can Achieve Efficient Ice Prevention

open access: yesMacromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 311, Issue 2, February 2026.
This paper reports the preparation of a superhydrophobic composite coating using a spray‐coating method. The coating features PDMS and PVDF as organic bonding frameworks, doped with GPE, MWCNTs, and modified SiO2 functional nanoparticles to achieve efficient de‐icing.

Anthropogenically Stimulated Carbonate Dissolution in the Global Shelf Seafloor Is Potentially an Important and Fast Climate Feedback

open access: yesAGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Carbonate mineral production and dissolution regulate atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations via modulation of the ocean alkalinity content. The anthropogenic rise in atmospheric CO2 reduces calcification rates and enhances calcium carbonate dissolution, which increases ocean alkalinity, counteracts acidification, and stimulates ocean
