Consumer resilience suppresses the recovery of overgrazed ecosystems. [PDF]
Abstract Many heterotroph species perish when faced with severe food limitation; others can persist, adapt, and thrive. Sea urchins are emblematic of this paradox: they can overgraze kelp forests to form barren habitats, but can then survive for decades in these nutritionally depauperate seascapes.

Association Analysis of Seagrass Coverage and Human Activities in Nusa Lembongan
Nusa Lembongan has high marine biodiversity, including seagrass. Seagrass is a plant that lives submerged in a marine or estuary water that functions as a nursery ground, trapping sediment, and beach protector, so it is important to know the condition of

Contrasting Rare Earth Element Signatures Between Stromatolitic Carbonates and Lagoon Waters at Shark Bay, Western Australia: Implications for Paleo-Environmental Reconstructions of Microbial Habitats. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Rare earth elements and yttrium (REY) signatures in stromatolitic carbonates have emerged as powerful geochemical proxies for reconstructing paleo‐depositional environments of microbial habitats. The applicability of such a proxy relies on the assumption that REY substitutes for calcium into crystal lattices, directly reflecting the ...

Seasonal behavior of Thalassia testudinum (Hydrocharitaceae) metabolites
The marine angiosperm Thalassia testudinum, commonly known as turtle grass, is a dominant seagrass that grows in the Caribbean Sea shelf associated to Syringodium filiforme. The hydroalcoholic extract of T. testudinum is rich in polyphenols; the most abundant metabolite in this extract is thalassiolin B, a glycosilated flavonoid with skin damage ...

Classification of Marine Seagrasses by Leaf Fractal Dimensions Analysis
This particular study used the fractal dimensions of leaves of sea-grasses that were found near the Marine Protected Area (MPA) of Punta, Panaon, Misamis Occidental to determine if the same can be used for classification purposes.

Spatial Patterns and Overlap of Sedimentary and Rhizosphere Microbiomes of the Seagrass Zostera capensis. [PDF]
Sedimentary microbiomes and, for the first time, rhizosphere microbiomes of Zostera capensis, South Africa's most abundant seagrass, were characterised using 16S rRNA metabarcoding across three estuaries. After accounting for seawater‐derived microbes, we found that sediment and rhizosphere communities largely overlapped but also harbor distinct core ...

Population Genetic Structure and Biogeographic Distribution of Tropical <i>Halodule uninervis</i> in the Bohol Sea and Adjacent Waters in the Philippines. [PDF]
Genome‐wide SNP markers reveal patterns of genetic structure and connectivity among Halodule uninervis populations across the Bohol Sea. Migration rates (≥ 0.025 and ≤ 0.040) indicate asymmetric gene flow and heterogeneous connectivity, suggesting a semi‐connected metapopulation shaped by clonal reproduction and regional oceanographic circulation ...
