Marine heatwaves drive recurrent mass mortalities in the Mediterranean Sea
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2022)
Climate change is causing an increase in the frequency and intensity of marine heatwaves (MHWs) and mass mortality events (MMEs) of marine organisms are one of their main ecological impacts. Here, we show that during the ...

Molluscs community as a keystone group for assessing the impact of urban sprawl at intertidal ecosystems
(Springer Nature, 2022)
Mollusc communities are getting endangered in the aftermath of urban sprawl because artificial structures do not surrogate natural substrates. In this study, we compared the diversity, community and trophic arrangements ...

A new family for the enigmatic sea pen genus Gyrophyllum Studer, 1891 (Octocorallia, Pennatulacea), a molecular and morphological approach
(Museum National d'Histoire Naturelle, 2022)
The description in 1891 of the sea pen genus Gyrophyllum Studer, 1891 and also the type species G. hirondellei Studer, 1891 was based on a single colony collected in the Azores Archipelago. During the 19th and 20th centuries, ...

Challenging ecogeographical rules: Phenotypic variation in the Mountain Treeshrew (Tupaia montana) along tropical elevational gradients
(Public Library of Science, 2022-06)
Bergmann’s and Allen’s rules were defined to describe macroecological patterns across latitudinal gradients. Bergmann observed a positive association between body size and latitude for endothermic species while Allen ...

Influence of environmental factors and sessile biota on vagile epibionts: the case of amphipods in marinas across a regional scale
(Hellenic Centre for Marine Research, 2022)
Marinas are highly anthropized environments, with singular ecological characteristics. In the present study the spatial vari-ability of the amphipod assemblage associated to floating pontoons was analyzed. Moreover, the ...

Effects of ocean acidification on the biochemistry, physiology and parental transfer of Ampelisca brevicornis (Costa, 1853)
(Elsevier, 2022)
Ocean acidification (OA) has received more attention in the marine research community in recent years than any other topic. Excess carbon dioxide makes the ocean more acidic, threatening marine ecosystems. There has been ...
