Les poissons des récifs coralliens ont souvent une forte structuration spatio-temporelle de leur distribution et de leur abondance, mais les facteurs qui l’influencent sont encore peu connus. Cette étude a pour but d’analyser la distribution spatiale des communautés de ...

The land and ocean absorb on average just over half of the anthropogenic emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) every year. These CO2 "sinks" are modulated by climate change and variability. Here we use a suite of nine dynamic global vegetation models (DGVMs) and four ocean ...

We investigated species diversity and distribution patterns of the marine red alga Portieria in the Philippine archipelago. Species boundaries were tested based on mitochondrial, plastid and nuclear encoded loci, using a general mixed Yule-coalescent (GMYC) model-based...

This study evaluated the effects of γ-irradiated horseshoe crab chitosan coating on extending the shelf-life of selected high commercial value seafood. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Field-Emission Scanning Electron Microscopes (FE-SEM), X-ray diffracti...

Abstract In this study we examined what are the markers of immigrant naturalisation as seen from the perspectives of recipient nationals. Social markers are perceptual signposts that receiving nationals use in deciding whether a non-native born is a member of the destin...

Abstract Engineered nano-bio cellular interfaces bring together well-defined nanoscale material morphologies with organic living systems. These extraordinarily complex interfaces are set to produce radical advances in the life sciences, through fundamental research in t...

Traffic-related air pollution is ubiquitous and almost impossible to avoid. It is important to understand the role that traffic-related air pollution may play in neurodegenerative diseases, such as dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, and Parkinson’s disease, particularly amo...

distribution. However, recent genetic comparisons have pointed to another scenario. The latest morphological study has confined F. grisea to the sub-Antarctic island of South Georgia, from which it was originally described, and resurrected F. antarctica as a congeneric ...

Ocean acidification is a predictable consequence of rising atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2), and is highly likely to impact the entire marine ecosystem – from plankton at the base of the food chain to fish at the top. Factors which are expected to be impacted include re...
