Levelling-up rhodolith-bed science to address global-scale conservation challenges
Tuya, Fernando; Schubert, Nadine; Aguirre, Julio; Basso, Daniela; Bastos, Eduardo O.; Berchez, Flávio; Bernardino, Angelo F.; Bosch, Néstor E.Global marine conservation remains fractured by an imbalance in research efforts and policy actions, limiting progression towards sustainability. Rhodolith beds represent a prime example, as they have ecological importance on a global scale, provide a wealth of ecosystem functions and services, including biodiversity provision and potential climate change mit-igation, but remain disproportionately understudied,...

Martins, Marta; Carreiro-Silva, Marina; Martins, Gustavo M.; Barcelos e Ramos, Joana; Viveiros, Fátima; Couto, Ruben P.; Parra, Hugo; Monteiro, JoãoSites with naturally high CO2 conditions provide unique opportunities to forecast the vulnerability of coastal ecosystems to ocean acidification, by studying the biological responses and potential adaptations to this increased environmental variability. In this study, we investigated the bivalve Ervilia castanea in coastal sandy sediments at reference sites and at volcanic CO2 seeps off the Azores, where the pH...

How experimental physiology and ecological niche modelling can inform the manag...
Koerich, Gabrielle; Assis, Jorge; Costa, Giulia Burle; Sissini, Marina Nasri; Serrao, Ester; Rorig, Leonardo Rubi; Hall-Spencer, Jason M.Marine bioinvasions are increasing worldwide by a number of factors related to the anthroposphere, such as higher ship traffic, climate change and biotic communities' alterations. Generating information about species with high invasive potential is necessary to inform management decisions aiming to prevent their arrival and spread. Grateloupia turuturu, one of the most harmful invasive macroalgae, is capable of...
