Why these invisible organisms generate a significant portion of oxygen, absorb vast amounts of carbon, and purify water ...

It is known that jellyfish are predators that feed mainly on small planktonic animals. They capture food with their mouths, through which food remains are continuously removed. Presumably, along with ...

The Nicobar Islands are a biodiversity hotspot, home to unique species found nowhere else. Long isolated, these islands have ...

Most life on Earth relies on the sun’s energy for survival, but what about organisms in the deep sea that live beyond the ...

Researchers from Europe and the US are pooling their findings to better understand the quagga mussels and their spread.

This study aimed to investigate the distribution of the planktonic marine fungal community in the Red Sea and to contribute to a better understanding of the microbial diversity and ecology of marine ...

Tintinnina (tintinnids) is single-celled planktonic protozoa commonly used as model organisms in planktonic studies. In this research, we investigated the organization of Tintinnina assemblages along ...

a clear correlation between drastic and irreversible changes in the planktonic communities of the Brest roadstead and major human impacts, notably the Second World War and the rise of intensive ...

Microorganisms bind to this protein layer and thus attach to the surface. Such bacteria are different from free-living planktonic bacteria (bacteria that float in urine). Urinary catheter biofilms may ...

A recent study by AEP (Loewen et al. 2020) investigated the relative importance of co-occurring local (in blue) and regional (in pink) environmental factors (including TP and Secchi) explaining ...

The microalga Nannochloropsis oceanica holds potential as a valuable source of sustainably produced nutrients such as protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and vitamin K2. A new study shows that cultivation ...
