Early Succession Patterns of Benthic Assemblages on Artificial Reefs in the Oligotrophic Eastern Mediterranean Basin
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2022)
The colonization of artificial structures by benthic organisms in the marine realm is known to be affected by the general trophic patterns of the biogeographical zone and the prevailing environmental traits at the local ...

Cyber-physical system for environmental monitoring based on deep learning
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2021)
Cyber-physical systems (CPS) constitute a promising paradigm that could fit various applications. Monitoring based on the Internet of Things (IoT) has become a research area with new challenges in which to extract valuable ...

Predation Facilitates the Abundance of Biofouling Non-indigenous Species in Estuarine Marinas in NE Atlantic Portugal
(Elsevier, 2023)
Harbours are highly modified habitats that differ from natural areas. They are hotspots of non-indigenous species (NIS) and act as stepping-stones in invasive processes. However, local communities can exert biotic resistance ...

Location and Building Material Determine Fouling Assemblages within Marinas: A Case Study in Madeira Island (NE Atlantic, Portugal)
(Elsevier, 2023)
Marinas are hubs for non-indigenous species (NIS) and constitute the nodes of a network of highly modified water bodies (HMWB) connected by recreational maritime traffic. Floating structures, such as pontoons, are often ...

Molecular phylogeny and morphological comparison of the deep-sea genus Alloptilella Li, Zhan & Xu, 2021 (Octocorallia, Pennatulacea)
(Springer Nature, 2022)
A previously described species and a new one belonging to the recently described sea pen genus Alloptilella Li, Zhan & Xu, 2021, are here described and illustrated based on a morphological and molecular study of materials ...

Habitat preference and diversification rates in a speciose lineage of diving beetles
(Elsevier, 2021)
The long-term geological stability of aquatic habitats has been demonstrated to be a determinant in the evolution of macroinvertebrate fauna, with species in running (lotic) waters having lower dispersal abilities, smaller ...

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 ...

Some Observations on the Reproductive Biology of the Mediterranean Pennatulacean Pteroeides Spinosum (Ellis and Solander, 1786) (Cnidaria: Octocorallia: Pennatulacea)
(Springer Nature, 2022)
Sea pens are some of the most important structural species in soft bottom benthic communities. Pteroeides spinosum is a shallow-water pennatulacean (Cnidaria: Octocorallia: Pennatulacea) habiting NE Atlantic-Mediterranean ...

Malacofauna from soft bottoms in the Cerro Gordo marine cave (Alboran Sea): biodiversity and spatial distribution
(Hellenic Centre for Marine Research, 2020)
A study has been carried out for the first time of the molluscan fauna of the Cerro Gordo submarine cave in the Spanish part of the Alboran Sea. The depth of the cave bottom ranges from 16 m at its entrance, to sea level ...
