🚨 New publication!

Federica Manca et al's network analyses show that marine macrophyte-animal associations can be highly structured and they are not random assemblages. Additionally, the key species bladderwrack is again showing how important it is!

🚨 New publication!

@ivanrodil.bsky.social et al studied effects of different types of detritus on seafloor fauna and bacteria using traditional and eDNA approaches.

Despite some differences between the methods, some common trends were detected.

Ekologisk hållbarhet är en förutsättning för både ekonomiska och sociala värden – och måste sättas främst också i det kortsiktiga beslutsfattandet. Läs uppmaningen från @alfnorkko.bsky.social & Christoph Humborg @coastclim.bsky.social i @hbl.fi, med anledning av den pågående havskonferensen.

Are the Oceans Reaching Their Limit? Join the Discussion at #ACCCImpactWeek on April 22. Top researchers from CoastClim participate @alfnorkko.bsky.social and Anna Villnäs. Register by April 9, the event is free of charge.

Coastal zones are identified as important natural carbon sinks globally, but in brackish environments like the Baltic Sea, knowledge of coastal carbon sequestration is limited.

This new study shows that shallow and partly enclosed Baltic bays are significant sinks for carbon and nutrients.

New publication! Gammal et al. sampled benthic macrofauna, solute fluxes and environmental variables at 3 shallow habitats throughout one year.
Results show that the strength of biodiversity-function relationships really depends on which species are present in which habitat and during which season.
