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...

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...

This study reports the use of hypotonic osmotic shock as a treatment step to enhance the recoveries of biofuel-convertible lipids and proteins from lipid-rich saltwater Nannochloropsis gaditana (N. gaditana) slurries (biomass content = ~140 mg biomass / g slurry, total ...

Abstract Objective We aimed to assess the association of oral health (OH), dental care (DC) and mouthwash with upper-aerodigestive tract (UADT) cancer risk, and to examine the extent that enzymes involved in the metabolism of alcohol modify the effect of mouthwash. Mate...

Sedimentary basins beneath the East Antarctic Ice Sheet (EAIS) have immense potential to inform models of the tectonic evolution of East Antarctica and its ice-sheet. However, even basic characteristics such as thickness and extent are often unknown. Using airborne geop...
