We studied the behaviour of #AtlanticSalmon and #BrownTrout post-smolts in a marine protected area to safeguard Atlantic salmon populations. Species-specific differences were observed, with important implications for conservation efficacy. bit.ly/ab00777

Constructed dams on the main pathway of the Gorganroud River could not prevent extreme floods. Flooding caused sharp reductions in macroinvertebrate abundance. Maintaining environmental flows is critical for ecosystem resilience. bit.ly/ab00776

Can #microplastics disrupt #freshwater #photosymbiosis? We investigate the effects of microbeads on a ciliate-algae symbiosis, uncovering reduced net primary production with alarming potential implications for this widespread symbiosis bit.ly/AB_32_13

This study reports for the first time the ingestion and surface adhesion patterns between #microplastics and the soft #coral species Coelogorgia palmosa (Anthozoa Octocorallia Alcyonacea). Read full article by Sara Vencato and colleagues: bit.ly/ab_30_133

Video recordings show submerged spawning of #mudskipper Periophthalmus variabilis in the egg chamber of its burrow. The occasional creation of a water current by the male during hatching could help larvae to leave the burrow. Read full article: bit.ly/ab_30_113

This study analyzed the transcriptional level of genes related to phytoene and astaxanthin synthesis, and it indicates that 6 g per litre NaAc and induction for 12 days provides the optimal inducing conditions for astaxanthin accumulation in H. pluvialis. bit.ly/ab_29_155
